Graffito

You can't beat a nice ornage shirt.

Michael Owen is available.....for Weddings, Funerals and Bar Mitzvahs perhaps.

It would take some balls and would stretch credulity for Liverpool's American owners to replace with someone most Liverpool fans have probably never heard of a Liverpool legend sacked after just 12 months in the job.

They're loveable rogues really.

West Ham. I live in London and many times over the years have I enjoyed the warm Cockney welcome you get down at Upton Park.

Music at football doesn't generally create atmosphere except where there is none to begin with. At most grounds, including St Mary's, music destroys atmosphere, especially with the ****y willy sound system we have.

It's a load of balls isn't it Saint Lard.

The oddest thing for me is that just over a year ago Saints were in the third division. Incredible what has been achieved. Won something in each of the last three years. It's good to be a Saints fan right now. I just hope we do ourselves justice next year..I think we will. Whatever happens though, the last three years have been memorable.

You lot have good memories. I was at the home tie under the East stand. That's it. Can't remember bugger all else, even with the assistance of YouTube. Alzheimer's, in many ways the forgotten illness.

Who invited that twa@t.

The reality is that nobody cares except us....and HMRC ...and the creditors....and the 60% of clubs that have gone into admin....on second thoughts, crap article.

Cardiff to win tonight and get a draw at Upton Park.

"Ultimately, both these south coast clubs have enjoyed similar highs at different times in their recent history. The difference, perhaps, is that when they were rocked to their foundations, Southampton's building blocks proved sturdier." By implication the fans.

Annoying my wife and daughters to the point where they're pleased to see the season start again in August.

I don't see them as a status symbol. They're a bloody nuisance.

Middlesbrough's a good shout but now we've been promoted I can say I enjoyed the 2-2 derby match. I'll miss the Skates when they're gone...kind of.

That match was the only occasion in 40 years of supporting Saints that I have left before the final whistle being so disappointed with the team's response to a new manager. In retrospect unreasonable expectations on my behalf perhaps. It didn't take Nigel Adkins long to instil some confidence and belief. It's telling that so many of the players that night were in Saturday's squad and it's testament to the fine job Nigel Adkins has done.

A Saints replica shirt, a pair of "Get into 'em **** 'em up" Doc Marten's and denim trousers, as worn by Doug Summers the famous Wyoming cowboy.

When you climb a ladder and don't want to lose your nerve you look up not down. Think positive. We're not going into the play offs.

Guly.

Yes we've missed him. Linked well with Lallana, Lambert and Guly.

Please don't bet against Saints. It's just plain wrong.

Remember the first game of the season, a sunny Saturday in August, when we announced our intentions to the Championship and to the viewers in emphatic style with a joyous 3-1 victory over Leeds. As someone pointed out on another thread, it would be perfect symmetry to sign off with a 3-1, again on tv, this time against Coventry, in the final game of the season.

Thoroughly looking forward to Saturday. It will be a great day.

Has to be Southampton's Goal Machine. At this stage in his career he must want promotion so badly. Think he'll score two. Second will be a pen. Sharp will get the other.
