Reports over the weekend he wants to stay at saints and sign a new deal.

It feel like the club is United and we've got a manager happy to be here and a leadership structure not a dictatorship at the top. Talk of the top 4 was still pie in the sky and it would still be a great achievement to finish in the top 8, especially given all the upheaval over the summer. We are still a work in progress, we are where we are because eve exceed expectations and some of the top 6 regulars of previous years are in disarray. Over 38 games it'll level out. We still have a great chance of a top 6 finish and a wembley final but even if we don't make it given where people thought we'd finish we still have much to be proud of.

Southamptons early season form seems a long time ago, they are in a terrible run, their once solid defence is making mistake after mistake and the goals have dried up for them which is not a good combination. Meanwhile Burnley haven't had an easy start to life in the premier league and have to string a run of wins together and I think they can, starting with a win here.

Gifted them victory with two errors, didn't take our chances or make our domination count and paid for it. So disappointing to more than match two top teams with a weakened side and come away with nothing.

I agree, felt we've had a bit of an inferiority complex against Man City and arsenal, if we can get a win tonight it might just give us a lift that we can beat these sides.

That's the problem,many mistake will be punished or half chance taken, their defence might be terrible but they're good going forward.

Yep, although thought shane long should have at least made the keeper work with his chance. He's been decent though.

Man United are there for the taking, their defence is awful, but they won't be as bad this half.

Now Smallings off, it gets worse.

It's going to take a while to repair the damage that was done.

Wasn't that what you told us would be the case with our home support if we extend st Mary's?

Whilst this is true one look at our commercial income on previous years shows that we haven't been taking advantage of our success on the pitch. In our first season back in the premier league it was normal for half the corporate boxes to be empty and this was reflected in the figures, with premier league saints having commercial income lower than championship clubs like Watford. Of course the more successful sides will attract the biggest sponsors but we were failing spectacularly off the pitch. It's good to see we have people in place now who recognise that and are doing something about it.

I brought the incumbent a book called cheap and easy vegetarian cooking. Not was perfect for her as not only is she a vegetarian...

What do you expect with me around.

The gospel according to st turkish - a mongboarders tale Set to be released in time for Christmas, Saintsweb legend turkish releases his memoirs where he relives 14 years of Internet forum membership. Edgy, gripping, thrilling and humorous, it follows one mans journey from dial up to BT infinity and all that went on In between.

Seems we have a lot of fans who have no minerals, utter jizz mopping Mongs. Let's face it, if there is anything remotely negative to be speculated on, saints fans will find it. If there is nothing to worry about, they'll invent something. Our battle hardened ancestors who ironed out the French would turn in their grave at the city of pussies and freaks southampton has become.

There is also a lot of crap, its great not to be one of them.

It's for moment like this that I vote for you for mod of the year, every year.

Gotze might be available too.

So west ham are a good team now are they? Made your mind up pal

Remind me of super, unstoppable saints last league away win against a good side.

Richard Dunne Jordan Mutch Ashley Young So we could have a dream move of Dunne to Mutch, Mutch to Young.

So in a 3 line post one of those lines was your opinion which you're stating as fact. chalet is right Casey.

You gonna try and get the Harry/Leslie Read song going Lou?

"Our revenue will come from 3 main sources: organic growth in commerial activities,new business development opportunities and improved broadcasting incomes. This revenue growth will then be aligned to the football strategies to create the self sustaining business model Southampton prides itself on" Isn't it great to know we are in such good hands.
