Very strong rumours that it will be Redmond from Norwich, was mentioned on local TV.

Well, it won't be a disaster if we lose tonight. Who cares about the League Cup. I think we will need to concentrate on staying up this year and I have held this view since the end of last season.

Local Norfolk TV 'Mustard TV' just said that Saints are back in for Nathan Redmond.

My number 1 fan !

We need to gracefully bow out of this competition and the FA Cup as early as possible. make no mistake we will be fighting to keep our head above 18th this year and our Premier future is all that matters.

Agree. Gaston injured again, will we ever see anything useful on him on a CONSISTENT basis ?

Norwich have bought some good strikers this season though.

Workmanlike. 17th finish if we are lucky.

I understand what you are saying. But, I am being a realist. look what has just happened the moment there was a sniff of a chance of Saints making it into the big time. We got broken up, and this was because money talks. 30 years ago, we could have done a Nottingham Forest or an Ipswich, but not now. We have to wait until something changes. Maybe the allure of the premier league will die away, nothing is permanent. In the meantime it is better to enjoy achieving the achievable and also to make the most of our time in the premier and see relegation and promotion as part of the drama. Far worse is to bankrupt ourselves and have a repeat of 2005 etc or find ourselves like that lot down the road from us. For the time being if you want to see your club win the league, become a plastic.

I am happy with our status. I think it is also very important to remain solvent and if we do go down 'yoyo' back up. Norwich have started well and will do precisely that, keeping finances in a good state and build a good team for a couple of years in the Prem. We should follow their example.

Lively on here I see. Anyway, I think WBA will give us a very hard game and as I said back in June, we are going to have a long hard season fighting for our Premiership lives.

This is a tougher game than against Pool. We are at home and expectations are higher. These sort of games are the type that will decide survival or relegation. I think we will struggle to get 3 points on this one.

Games against the big 6 will not define our season, it will be shaped by wins against those around us.

Isgrove playing well.

If anything, the add is a dig at Liverpool and a back handed compliment to the Saints. Mind a win today would prove a wonderful irony !

Bobby Stokes....for that goal.

Defeat a certainty. If we keep the defeat down to 4 goals we will have done well, but I predict Liverpool 6 Saints 0

Lat year we were planning to get into Europe, this year we are planning for the Championship...yoyo time !!!

You've really had the stuffing knocked out you. Used to be a very positive poster as well.

Er...I don't think so. Not going to happen.
