First ever Saints match?
 Can't honestly remember, few games in the lates 70's
but not seriously till early nineties.
Best ever Saints game
(Excluding 2000 HC final) 		Including the 2000 HC winning 25-12 at Tigers.
Favourite Saints experience
off pitch? 		Our crowd being 'kidnapped' after the game Montferrand by
Les Vignerons for a great night in their bar.
What are your non-rugby pastimes? History, local history, family history, natural history
(god I sound boring), baseball, travel and films.
Most likely to say? Apparently.............etc etc etc
Least likely to say? Three cheers to the club for closing the main bar
at Xmas again.
In less than 20 words what would you
