The last time we played them was in 1978, I went to all 3 games, a 0-0 draw at Grimsby on the Saturday, followed by another 0-0 AET at the Dell only 3 days later, a week after that we met them in a 2nd replay played at Leicester City's filbert street.
The only problem was that Grimsby is only about 80-90 miles from Leicester whereas Southampton is about 150, than meant that they took about 10,000 and we had about 1,500 there.
We beat them 4-1 it was not pleasant getting back to the coaches after and then it was a blizzard for most of the way home
