[Amelia Chaffinch]

We have never played Southampton in the FA Cup.

We have only met once in the League Cup in the 1994/95 season. They won that 5-0 on aggregate with all 5 goals coming from Matt Le Tissier.

Our most recent meeting, and it is recent, was on the last day of the premier league season; 12th May '19. We drew 1-1 and our equaliser came from Alex Pritchard.

Only £10 for SC holders and concessions available, too.

Kick-off is at 15:01 for all 3rd round ties for us to take a minute to think about mental health as part of the Heads Up campaign.

We have each won the FA Cup once.

Southampton beat Man Utd 1-0 in 1976 and were runners-up in 1900 v Bury, 1902 v Sheffield Utd and 2003 v Arsenal.

We won it 1-0 in 1922 against PNE and were runners-up 1920 v Aston Villa, 1928 v Blackburn Rovers, 1930 v Arsenal and 1938 v PNE.

The FA Cup is the oldest national cup competition in the world and has been contested since the 1871 to 72 season. The first winners were Wanderers FC and the club has reformed to continue the name and now play in the Surrey South Eastern Combination League.

QUIZ

Without a sneaky peak on the web, can you answer the following:

1. As well as Wanderers FC, who else has won FA Cup in 3 consecutive years?

2. Which 2 teams have had the most FA Cup final appearances?

3. Which club has the most years between wins? (that record will obviously be taking by us in 2020)

Guide for visiting supporters

Top scorers for Southampton are Danny Ings on 15, James Ward-Prowse on 4 and Nathan Redmond on 3. Whether they'll bother playing the likes of Ings on Saturday remains to be seen. 

As far as their premier league status goes, they are comfortably mid-table in 12th place on 25 points.

I'm done there... I don't think any of us care about this match. We have to worry about staying in the Championship. I think we will put out some young ones on Saturday and possibly a few of our overpriced prima donnas if we haven't already got rid.

Happy New Year!
