The sky is blue, the Sun is shining, the pitch is green, the Team is fine, the Referee is good, the Fans are up for it, NA is positive, what can possibly go wrong?
If we win today and Reading fail to get 3 points at West Brom, we will be out of the relegation places tonight.
This is the side in 2005 when we got relegated on the final day of the season: Niemi, Telfer, Lundekvam, Higginbotham, Bernard (Davenport 78), Prutton (Phillips 71), Redknapp, Quashie, Le Saux (Delap 71), Camara, Ormerod. Crouch was suspended, got sent off in the previous game. We are definitely a better side now than we were then. Revenge will be sweet, remember that game, totally gutted, Remember Le Tiss on Sky that day looking dejected, like all of us. I knew I would not be seeing my Saints again on TV for a long time.
At last I've turned the game against Arsenal into a positive. This week's Friday Focus on the BBC Sports website shows Dietmar Hamann talking about Arsenal and how they are going. He says... I think they only conceded one goal in their 6-1 win over Southampton..! Yes mate, that's probably true.
The big positive is that we don't have to play them at their place again....pretty much everyone else does. I think they will be a major force this year - I put them in the top four
