Southampton FC Releases Audio Documentary on Historic FA Cup Victory

Southampton FC has released a new audio documentary titled “How The Saints Won The Cup,” focusing on the club’s historic FA Cup victory. The documentary was made available on April 30, 2026, through the club’s official channels.

The audio production explores Southampton’s journey to FA Cup glory and gives supporters a closer look at one of the club’s biggest achievements. The format lets listeners revisit the story of the cup run and the final.

Southampton’s FA Cup victory in 1976 remains a defining moment for the club, when they defeated Manchester United 1-0 at Wembley Stadium. Bobby Stokes scored the winning goal in the 83rd minute, securing the club’s first and only FA Cup triumph to date. The victory was particularly memorable as Southampton were a Second Division side at the time, making their achievement against top-flight opposition even more remarkable.

For Southampton supporters, the documentary offers another way to revisit a defining part of the club’s history. The 1976 win is often described as the greatest day in Saints history and remains central to the club’s story.

The release gives the club another way to preserve that history for current and future supporters. Audio is well suited to a story built around people, memories, and the atmosphere of a famous final.

The documentary is now accessible to supporters who want to explore the details behind Southampton’s most famous triumph and understand the impact it had on the club’s development and identity.
