So a season that started with Saints losing at home to Plymouth, finishes with us winning the return fixture (delayed through international call ups for Plymouth) and effectively winning promotion back to the Championship.
This season is our 125th anniversary and we lost our owner Marcus Liebherr when he died at the beginning of the season, which is the sad part of the promotion as no one would have been happier to see us promoted than he would have been. The pictures of him taking photos of the players with the trophy at Wembley last season, when we won the Football League trophy, will always be treasured by Saints fans. Although he was only with us for a season, he was much loved in that short time.
Anyway, a fantastic achievement and who knows this time next year we could be celebrating our return to the Premier League.
