Anything other than a very comfortable win would be disappointing. If we play like we did against Swansea early doors, we could easily be 3-0 up at half time and cruise to three points. And tbh, if we play like we did aginst them at home, we will again win quite comfortably, we're better at putting teams to bed.

Is that Alpine Fox?

If it's something like Newcastle and their flag displays before the game then I'm all for it. If it's like Arsenal and their 'ultras' then it's a hard no from me.

He had weeks to prepare the team, I had made my mind up after the Brighton game where the difference between the teams was enormous and a 3-1 loss flattered us. Things only got worse from there. He was out of his depth and the idiots who appointed him should stay away from future decision making at the club. Luckily for us we now have Jason Wilcox.

Not too fussed if we name a weaker team, think it's far more important that players who haven't played as much recently get 90 mins. I'm sure Watford will make some changes as well. We have decent squad depth so I back us to ease to a 2-0 win.

Reading through this thread is funny, it pretty much mirrors how I felt watching it at the ground First half was immense. Best away performance of the season by far, we were all over them, should've got 3 even before they scored, and even when they did put one in our net against the run of play, our response was amazing Second half was a disaster... Anyhow 3 points, overall a deserved away win, hopefully a win in the FA Cup before our focus is back on the league. Play like that against Rotherham and we win 6 or 7 nil

I've been to many away games where the away fans are led on a merry march around the houses. I suspect they'll block off access to go north up the Kingsland and hope that by the time the away fans heading to the station want to use the footbridge and have had to walk around the stadium to get there, most home fans will already have crossed it

I do if they play like they did when we played them in September

Live on Sky Sports

Ah OK fair enough, that makes sense.

I think the whole Northam should be safe standing tbh. In any case I think the introduction of that will keep most people there. If people do move to be near to the away fans than I don't think it hurts if we have two noisy ends at opposite ends of the grounds

We were one of the few clubs who voted against it at the time it was introduced.

Hopefully the Swansea players will still have scar tissue from Boxing Day and we'll cruise to three points. Preferably we win away from home by more than a goal

Friday was the one day I couldn't do, so Sunday 2pm is OK. There are some horrible kick off times - Bournemouth game is moved to a Thursday! That's outrageous, absolutely zero reason that cannot be on the weekend.

No, doesn't say for me either actually.

https://www.southamptonfc.com/en/southampton-vs-watford-fa-cup-ticket-information Tickets on sale Monday, we've taken 4000 ticket allocation

Officially sold out now, although you can get tickets via the ticket exchange. Phenomenal to hit over 30,000 again

I reckon if it was a crucial game, the club would subsidise it to something reasonable, like they did for the Sheffield Wednesday away game.

Chesterfield got an allocation of about 4000 tickets in the last round, which is more than 15%. They were initially given 3500 and then requested more. Hopefully we get more than the 15%, can't see Watford selling out for us.

There are 4 all Championship ties so there will be at least 4 of us in the 5th Round. Decent ish chance of a Championship club going very far. Ipswich and Blackburn will probably win and you can't rule out Swansea and West Brom creating a shock. That would be half the teams from the Championship

London team away please would be ideal

This winds me up so much. The sha la la la song for example, the skates do it brilliantly. Sha la la la la *clap clap* sha la la la la la *clap clap* In the stadium it sounds brilliant. But our fans when we sing the WTFILN version just clap throughout and it drowns out the lyrics, meaning all you hear is just a cocophony of clapping. Noisy but pointless.

I love it. I'm not from Southampton and have never lived there (although grew up in an SO postcode) but I wish we had more songs about the city. Unlike a few cities like Birmingham, Manchester, Liverpool, Sheffield, Bristol, even Stoke ffs, we are a one club city. The one thing that should unite the entire fanbase is the city, and a song about the city is something we need.

I'd love for Stuart Armstrong to sign a new deal. I'd like to thing one is on the table, in recent times (which have been shit) he has been a very consistent performer and one of my favourite players.

He isn't as bad as people make out, I just think because KWP is levels ahead of him (and most other full backs in the league) it stands out a bit more when he makes a mistake. If we do get promoted, we will definitely need a new left back though. I remember Danny Fox in the Prem...
