The Official Southampton FC Thread

haha, yeah I really enjoyed that vid. Great to see the club doing out of the box stuff like this. Prowsey in the full head cast .

Need to make sure we get back to winning ways this weekend

Is that a dig at Adidas as well? Or could it be a return of the brand?

The new kit is definitely Adidas, that was announced months ago.

You cannot beat the fine consistency of Premiership form this season... 5-0 ... how close is that ..

Looking forward to some more such "who knew" results for the remaining games..

[Amirhussain]

fking hell, 5 goals first half, including 3 minute hat-trick..

Boo 5-1, rubbish

[The jiffle king]

Great sign off at St Mary's from a team who were tipped by many for relegation. We could have had many more

[130R]

It was a great performance. Strange how we can put 14 goals past Sunderland and Villa in 2 games but can't seem to score to save our lives in others! Mane, Long and Pelle were all top-drawer today.

Cool thanks, I missed that then.

What a result yesterday! I was offered a ticket but I couldn't go (and next week at Citeh - can't make that either, grrr). And Liverpool lost at home, made me chuckle.

COYR!

Swansea lost, so we will finish 7th place at the very least

[tobinen]

5th still possible too - Liverpool and Spuds both away next week.

7th it is then. Would've taken that at the start of the season but also had the potential to be much more. It will be interesting to see which players come in/go out in due course. And Europa league still possible pending the FA Cup result

That is my take on the season as well. We played really well for most of the year, gave a few teams a scare and got a record points total. We fell down in a few places:
- Did not have enough quality in back-up players (GK in particular the last few games, although Kelvin made a couple of cracking saves vs Man City)
- Another quality striker (lets hope JayRod is back firing)
- some shooting practice for Steven Davies

Wishes for the close season
- Keep Clyne (Assume Morgan is already gone)
- Fraser to have a miracle recovery
- The youth set-up to continue it's magic
- Ron to have a good rest and bring in some more great players who embrace the team ethos

[tobinen]

Definitely a striker required. No goals scored in February when Pelle went off the boil must have cost a few points in the table.

I still hope Gallagher will play again; I thought he showed some promise though he may stil be injured - not sure.

Read a rumour that Atletico will sell Alderweireld if Saints sell them Schneiderlin - could be bks

Perhaps some deals are pending the outcome of the FA Cup?

Hopefully, if (when!) we get a Europa place then the club will buy more players than if we don't get the place.

Do you all have passports?

Hope it's true.

COYR.

Not too keen on the new away kit.
