    How surprising? Are any Arsenal fans going to endure the frills of South West Trains, or are they relying on their support in the Solent área to turn up?

    Speaking of SWT, hasn´t the ownership changed from Stagecoach to that of the operator that runs GWT and it has resulted in a downturn in performance?

    Nothing wrong with the Royal Mail service. I used to work with them in the Fareham área. Castle Street, Portchester being my round but I was frequently put on a rural run, which was fun to discover.

    South West aren’t great Ides, and service out of Waterloo is pretty awful.

    I haven’t had too many problems though, unlike Govia Thameslink, who could win the Queens Award for Dreadfulness

    Has it occurred to you that your 'dishwasher game' has not actually produced (m)any results for Saints? Maybe your change today, of NOT emptying the dishwasher before the kettle boils is the impetus that we need to turn our season round?

    Some scoring forwards and a leak-proof defence may also be useful, but a combination of The Hutt and a not quite empty dishwasher could be the answer to all of Saints problems.

    So that's how they snaffle our players.

    I'm feeling extremely nervous too!! This game could be a massive turning point in our season.

    Does this mean it will be 4-1?

    Not expecting a win today and not too fussed if we lose, but I do want to see progression in how we play. I want to see us develop from the positive bits of the Cardiff game where we were defending high up as a team

    Perfectly summed up my feelings on this game. Due to the results yesterday this is a "no lose" situation for us unless we get hammered. I just want us to give Arsenal a good game.

    It could be (she lied), but this is more likely just the start of something. I want to see early signs of the improvements to come.:emoticon-0148-yes:

    Optimism that stems from not watching us play. That’s where we’re all going wrong :emoticon-0126-nerd:

    I’m still looking forward to today and Mrs S says we’re going to win 3-1. But then she’s as mad as a box of frogs <diva><rose><smooch>:rolleyes::cool:
