Another team underestimating us. Keep it up fellas. I love it ;)

Good luck for the season by the way fellas. <ok>

Giaccherini is a quality signing, but I'm not sure about the others. I think you'll also need some time for the squad to gel so it could be a slow start before you get into gear.

Wow lads. Only Jesting.

Thanks for wishing my team luck in the coming season too. Jeez, won't come here for friendly banter again, tara.
 
No answer to the question of why you're underestimated then? I was genuinely interested to hear your answer.

Just the general consensus around club predictions is that we're picking up no points anywhere. So generally from a view with a vested interest it looks like within the fans and the media that we're being underestimated. I like us being underdogs. We're going to surprise a few.

I think everyone in our lower mid-table area is going for the "we're going to surprise a few" hope. Both of our clubs are among those who most opposition fans will expect to get 3 points from at home. Don't take it too personally.
 
But you know, everyone might be right mightn't they? What makes you think you're being underestimated rather than correctly written off? Not trying to be provocative, I'm just curious.

Oh I'm not.


You have your name wrong, its Bri IS a ****ing phallus judging by that post! No one has under estimated anyone just made a prediction. Why can't we back our own team against someone who finished right by us last season??

I take that personally. Is he your resident Dickhead or something? Like I said, I like being the underdog.


pass the football, Not saying we're world beaters but we're a hell of a lot stronger. Why would you have any in depth knowledge? You only have the ignorance of the media to guide you. You could say the same to me, but I'm not writing anybody off. And I'm not predicting my teams fixtures before the transfer window has even closed. I'll predict one week at a time on all games of that weekend as they occur. I see all these posters doing this prediction thing and I think it's quite naive. Not knocking you all or anybody from other teams forums, if anything it gives me an all round overview of opinions which I've used to formulate my view that we're being underestimated. It's not fact, just an opinion.

Or his own footballing opinions? ;)

The problem is that if you go by other teams fan's predictions everyone would be underestimated. All the teams around you will be looking to beat you and think they can, all the big teams above you will be thinking 'We finished six spots higher we should be beating them', and the newly promoted sides will be thinking 'we need to beat sides like that to stay up this season', and you end up with a lot of losses predicted. I'd imagine it will be the same with other teams predicting Saints results, same with Sunderland, Norwich, Fulham, Swansea, Newcastle, Villa, basically all the teams that avoided relegation or finished mid or lower-mid table will feel that they had 'bum years' or were just inexperienced or going through changes and now they with reinforcements and more experience will be much improved. Some will be right, some will be wrong, let's just hope our two teams fall under the former category!

And I think the slightly icy welcome you got was because your post came off as a bit sarcastic, easy to assume from that you're just being a WUM, rather than coming for genuine discussion or badinage.
