We're not always a year behind them:
1974 Norwich relegated from the old division 1
1974 Southampton relegated from the old division 1
2005 Norwich relegated from the premiership
2005 Southampton relegated from the premiership
2009 Norwich relegated from the championship
2009 Southampton relegated from the championship
We dodged one bullet this year.
Glenn Johnson is crap, but I'm glad he's in the squad, ahead of the far superior Nathaniel. Every player for us who gets capped for England gets sold within a year (MLT excluded of course).
That’s why we have been able to not agree to any transfers to date, because we have control of the situation, and anybody who is saying anything else doesn’t understand that we are in a strong position with the Saints
