    I'll be about seven hours into a nine hour flight... at least it'll help pass the last couple before I can get out of the tin can, whatever happens

    Ahh the feel good factor… that’s an emotion I’d forgotten all about when watching Saints! That season was so special

    I remember being in Burger King before the Leeds game in the championship last time after our poor start to the season and a lady asked me if I thought we could win? “NO” I said, with an absolute certainty. “He’s gotta go hasn’t he?” she said (she might have had a point!).

    We all know what happened that day, and I have a similar feeling about this game. This is when it all clicks. COYS!!

    A couple of points:
    Nice to have forwards who could head the ball.
    Ricky was some player.
    This current team are a million miles off that team

    Even when they were knocking it about (at will it seemed) it still didn't feel like it was useless and had intent.

    Always enjoy all our yesterdays, but also makes me sad to see how far we’ve fallen. What a team we had.

    Ha, how funny?

    Ok, right, if we win , forget other superstitions like loading kitchen appliances, or throwing clothing into a laundry basket.

    All not 606'ers watching from the Itchen will be the way to go.

    Not sure you could see the game from there. Might be rather cold too.

    Will Still on if players will keep their place after performances against Liverpool: “Yeah, 100%. Quite a few of them, to be fair. I've said it to the players, everyone's had an opportunity now. Everyone's played. Everyone's got minutes.”

    Just reading more of the quotes about the team selection and the impact of the Liverpool game and note that he also said 'We can't overreact or get carried away because we lost, but we do need to start building on the positives where they appear'

    I’ve not followed Stills career before, but the way we played in the Liverpool game just felt more up his street, eg being the underdog. Not sure how many teams he’s managed who would he considered one of the favourites for the league title like Saints were.

    Hopefully he can figure it out because there is no way we can play like we did against Liverpool in league games and be successful
