    Of course some have ingrained negativity but I think the majority have an optimistic view. Not to say that most will be more than a bit miffed with defeat. COYR sting the hornets let's come away buzzing!

    Funny you say that I was actually thinking about that earlier and if QPR didn't charge such robbery prices I'd be tempted to go watch the first hour.

    Whoops! Bit early no coffee yet, brain not engaged with fingers, suitable edit coming up.
    Our ability to a humiliating defeat from the jaws of a magnificent victory will be in the back of the most optimistic fan.

    I'd have said come and say hello, but I'm over at my bro-in-law until midday, so not much help.

    Not that I expect any to start, but does anyone know if any of the signings were done in time to feature in the match day squad?

    I’ve got the same feeling as Libby. It’s just so Saints to be really excited and hyped about new signings and the team we’re building to then go and immediately lose.

    It's pretty likely in fairness. We will still be going with 3 at the back which doesn't seem to be working, and will have the same personel without Fernandes.

    I'm predicting a draw, 1-1, but wouldn't be surprised if we lost.

    Hopefully the new signings bring not just individual ability but a change in formation and way of playing from Still.

    They will. But not for this game.

    That was my point, this will just be the same as we have seen so far just without Fernandes.

    Azaz AND Fellows should be registered for this. Whether they go up to London is another issue.

    I'm fairly certain House said just Azaz.

    Let's see if what I was told is wrong then, It's probably too soon for Fellows.
