Match day. What do we think the line up strategy will be for the 2 home friendlies? Kind of 1 game each for the players? Out and out full strength side on Sat?
My guess would be that the starting line ups would be just about Mauricio's favoured team, but most players would get some time. Annoyingly, most friendly games are ruined by substitutions...annoying for fans as we want a victory, whereas the manager has other fish to fry.
Ah game day. Nice to have another game to follow and hopefully a match we will win. Doubt the match will be streamed sadly but always highlights later.

Just checked ticket site....lots of tickets available (not unexpectedly). I was surprised to note that they didn't open the Itchen centre section, so fans will be mainly at the goal ends or the corners. I was in the Itchen last time I went to a friendly.
Another reason not to want to go. With my eyesight I can't see the other side of the pitch when I sit in the Kingsland so I would barely see half the game if I had to sit at the ends.
I have gone to opening games of the season for yonks now and can only remember one wet one....they are usually baking hot....so here's hoping for the Swansea game
Ssshhhh! 2017/18 is a new season. You'll all be begging me to attend every game as every time I see Saints live they win 5-0. Really shouldn't drink in work...
I don't have a good record at St. Mary's. A loss against Cardiff and a draw against Watford, two nailed on home wins. Well until I turned up.
