The Saint is an independent local radio station for Southampton and Southern Hampshire. Launched on 5 September 1999 as SouthCity FM, the station license was acquired by Southampton Football Club in 2001, and has continued to operate as The Saint ever since.
Broadcast from modern studios within St Mary's Stadium, The Saint combines adult contemporary music with information and breaking news from Southampton FC, along with live commentary of all friendly, championship and cup games.
Unlike other radio stations tied to football clubs, The Saint is broadcast 24 hours, 7 days a week on 107.8 Mhz FM, DAB digital radio and online.
