Matt Le Tissier has been named as the ex-player most Saints fans would like to recycle' and see playing in the current Saints side in a survey on behalf of the Coca-Cola' Talent from Trash Recycle-a-Player programme.

Le Tiss topped the poll with an amazing 95% of votes.

Other players mentioned were Alan Shearer, Alan Ball, Peter Shilton and Mick Channon.

Coca-Cola' Talent from Trash has been a big success with Saints since launching in early September.

The programme rewards Football League clubs and their fans for pledging to recycle more and raising household waste recycling levels in their communities.

So far, over 1,900 Saints fans have made the pledge helping to raise £2,200 to date for the club to spend on youth development.

There's still time to raise more cash.

Fans can win up to £18,000 for Saints to spend on youth development if they pledge to recycle more at www.talent-from-trash.co.uk One lucky fan of a Football League club will also win an extra £10,000 for their club and £5,000 for themselves by pledging their commitment online.

Saints are one of 13 clubs taking part in Coca-Cola' Talent from Trash - the others are Accrington Stanley, Brentford, Burnley, Cardiff City, Coventry City, Huddersfield Town, Norwich City, Nottingham Forest, QPR, Swansea City, Swindon Town and Wycombe Wanderers.

Entering the programme is easy. Fans can pledge once a day online.

The number of pledges received each week will be counted and clubs will be rewarded with a corresponding level of prize money.

Clubs will also win extra cash based on the recorded uplift of household waste recycling levels in their areas during the 12 weeks (versus the same period in 2006).

All household waste materials are counted - glass, plastic, paper, aluminium, steel and cardboard.

As a minimum, participating clubs are guaranteed £3,400 to spend on youth development rising to £18,000 if the top targets are met.
