In 1966, the Saints were on top after Round 8 with eight straight wins. The team they beat in Round 8 was Essendon, in a tight match. (Don't ask what happened in Rounds 9 &10).

In 1966 Everton won the FA Cup against a team that also normally played in blue. Everton won the toss to play in their blue shirts.

They'll be playing in blue against Chelsea at Wembley on May 30 so if you don't barrack for them that night them you'd have to mad.

Are there any more omens?

bounced back at the G on the last day in September, and I will remember that game vividly myself!
Will put my thinking cap on for another omen , but the Everton and 8 straight are hard to toss
Great stuff!
