By drwinston001 If you’re a Southampton fan you’d say Gareth Bale’s emergence onto the footballing landscape came in 2006 when he made his debut. I remember hearing about a young kid who was good at free kicks and I was lucky enough to be in Southampton (as it turned out although that’s not how I […]
