AARON FLAHAVAN

Born: 15 December 1975, Southampton

Died: 5 August 2001

Appearances: 93 (League), 1+ 1 (FAC), 11 (League Cup). Total: 105 + 1.

Aaron's first appearance as goalkeeper for the senior side was as a sub when Alan Knight was sent off in the FA Cup fourth round versus Leicester in January 1995. He came through a series of setbacks to re-establish himself as the club's first-choice keeper after Russell Hoult's departure for WBA in December 2000. Aaron was killed in a road accident just one week before the 2001-02 season was due to commence.
