I remember this well because it was the week after the game that got me started (a 2-1 win over Man U - my first time on The Holte.)
Back in Southampton I remember a very rainy fireworks night with a bonfire on the waste ground behind our house, pushing potatoes and bananas into the fire and eating them in the freezing rain. Then back.in to dry off, put our pyjamas on & watch MOTD.
I remember thinking Frank Carrodus looked like a angel with his blond curls and white kit. As a 13 year old girl I was hooked!

If i remember rightly Frank Carrodus had a shot hit the crossbar near the end.

Ian Callaghan was very complimentary about us when interviewed after the game.

Brilliant. Did we think at that time that this is the team that's going to English and European champions🤔
