Saints triumph in Johnstone's Paint Trophy Final
Saints won their first piece of silverware for 34 years on their first ever trip to the new Wembley this afternoon, as at least 44,000 fans travelled to the capital to witness the team dispatch an uninspired Carlisle side with ease.
Carlisle 1 - 4 Saints
For full reaction to the final, including tactical analysis, player ratings and photos from Wembley, don't miss R&W Bill this week.
I have supported Saints for as long as I have known and was a season ticket holder (Kingsland) before moving up north to university. I have witnessed the changing fortunes of the club at first hand: from the good old Dell days of Le Tissier, Dodd and Benali to the (for us) glory days of the early noughties; from the failed Dutch Revolution in the Championship to our present Swiss revival in League One. I have also written for The Southern Daily Echo and The Pink and write a weekly football blog for the brilliant Football Filter website. I hope you enjoy my views on Saints, football and life in general. Comments appreciated.
