I sent them an email. Apparently they are having payment issues

They needed to sell a player by 30 June to avoid any FFP sanctions. Think they could be in trouble next season. They stayed up but their squad is in a worse state than ours, and their strategy seems to be going for overrated players on big wages

I guess from a distance it will just look like orange with black sleeves so that's probably the template that fits the best

Wolves the only one I think. They wear black shorts so we usually change shorts but wear our home kit

Back today according to Saints twitter

Maybe I'm in a minority but I've always preferred us having more white than red on our kit

We still have a fitness coach so I imagine they'll be doing the majority of the early pre season work

The players haven't exactly endeared themselves to us with their recent performances. Maybe Ralph is just telling them some hard truths

Wasn't Koeman also known for not exactly endearing himself?

Also the media team normally announce a date for revealing the kit, no? So that will come first

No. He's too important to sell

If Adams could finish he'd be a top striker. He missed so many sitters last season.

When are the club back for pre-season training? Got to be before then, surely

The club has been so badly mismanaged that we could have easily have done a Sunderland and dropped like a stone two divisions History will remember Ralph kindly. Deserves a lot of credit.

Exciting. Champions League here we come?

Generally speaking, our recruitment of cast-offs from elite clubs has worked out well for us - Romeu, Bertrand, Hojbjerg, Alderweireld come to mind. Lemina worked out badly but that wasn't down to ability, that was his attitude. He could have been a top player if he wanted to. A shame for him and for us really.

Interestingly, unless we get a home draw in the League Cup, the game against Brentford will be our 500th competitive game at St Mary's.

I'm guilty

Things hotting up with Svanberg according to Italian media

Wouldn't we be talking to his agent anyway rather than him directly?

I'll allow you that one

Absolutely yes to Ings coming back. As a striker he fits what Ralph wants to do perfectly. I suppose you could say though that if we're willing to fork out for him than we'd be better off going for Broja, so we'll see. I've said this before and I'll say it again, I would be incredibly disappointed if we sell JWP to anyone other than a Champions League team. That would show me the club has no ambition. My own gut feeling is that he'll stay. He's too important for us IMO.
