Hey John … look at these comments, they kinda say Southampton will walk the league. You’re welcome.

Unless they start selling their players, which they eventually did. And in all fairness I really didn't think that their new manager would be so gash.

We shouldn’t be reading too much into the league table at the moment. There is still plenty of time for it to change.

 

Forest had something like 1 point from 9 games the season they got promoted, although they did have to change the manager for a change in fortune. We, ourselves, had a terrible start under Sousa (5 from 9 I think) and ended up close to the play offs after Sven arrived. 
 

Southampton could still challenge yet with their squad and I’m expecting them to get it right at some point. The old adage of just concentrating on ourselves is still a good one. It doesn’t currently matter what anyone else does if we keep winning

Didn't happen. Sven replaced Sousa for a start and we finished 10th. Finished 9th the next season when Pearson replaced Sven mid-season. Didn't make the play-offs til 2013.

That’s my old man’s memory. I just remembered a distinct improvement after a dreadful start 👍

You curtailed my post early. What I said is still factually correct. It just took a season or two longer than I remembered :P

Southampton v Leeds should be entertaining today 

Southampton fans are all doom and gloom.

Leeds fans are talking like they expect to win the league. 

 

A Southampton win today would make it interesting as both teams would then be on exactly the same number of points
