Fonte seems excited about wearing the new kit....

Yeah....what plums!

Ah.... Match day threads.... Like the return of a long lost friend

Seems to be the Rodriguez and Davis show so far. Not many other players getting a mention

@SouthamptonFC: 28: Horrible mix-up between Llagostera defender Pere Segarra and goalkeeper Morag?n allows Rodriguez to fire in from close range. #saintsfc

I take it back... 0-1
