I must admit, I havent been as against VAR as you have been quietly telling us, but on Friday I loved how I could celebrate immediately. Downside was when they scored I had no hope that an armpit or a slight push could get it disallowed

Yep. Just a cursory glance towards the AR needed in the ground.
It's a shame the business doesn't get done earlier/the window doesn't shut earlier, giving the season break for adjustment to the new league. Instead, some of that gets delayed into the start of the season when really we should have a big old advantage over Norwich or most Championship clubs having just played in the Premier League.
Have to say, I find Martin's press conferences quite easy listening. No bullshit and quite relaxed, but also not so scripted that you give up and just think he's never going to give any insight or info that's fresh.
Contrast that with the best in Europe, Nathan Jones.
Chalk and Cheese...

OK we've done our bit, hopefully culled some of the numbnuts in the fanbase in the process - now over to the team to deliver.
No, but I think you got awhey with it!
Yeah it's a worry. However on Tuesday we also had Perraud at CB, plus a lot of inexperience all over the pitch. Hopefully a midfield three of Charles - Smallbone - Alcaraz, with experience all around, will be up to the task.
Presser is on Saints YouTube for anyone who wanted to see it and fancies some pre-match viewing.

Just organised the circus that is getting me, my mate, my 82 year old dad and his wife from 3 separate houses in Bournemouth/Poole to Southampton tomorrow for the game.
Getting excited now
Also did a dry run of the dishwasher game this morning - a lot trickier than before as we have a new kitchen since I last did it. There is a stupid island now in the middle that impacts my speed (Mrs No7 design not mine). Still think I can do it though.
It's the hope that kills.....

I still can’t get my head around Perraud being CB.
I'll get sore if we don't win.
