Any early end of season predictions?
4th is usually a good bet with Saints!

Difficult to say until we know the final squad. I think what happens with the manager will have a major effect. I am not confident of a top 4 finish, at least we have top 8 for this season.

I think the 3 relegated teams, us Boro, Millwall and Norwich will be the leading pack so 4th seems a reasonable middle ground, given the -4 and managerial and squad uncertainty.
Depends if we can shift surplus players, keep stars and bring in 1 or 2 more. I like Downes spirit to go out and win it. We were top on form since Tonda, so let's aim high!

Will be interesting to see how we do against West Ham in the cup.

I can't help think the cat is out the bag with Tonda.
Even if he is/turns out to be a great manager he's not there yet and I think any club would be run badly if they didn't take note to the success we had last season. Wether it was spying on not.
My point being Tonda seems to analyze everything. Great, but surely the counter to that is to make sure you/the opposing team have done so to and left nothing to chance when facing us.
I've mentioned before about variables. Already a slightly different team (hopefully Scienza stays)
But for me, realistically, were pushing for promotion again. If Tonda is the main everyone thinks he is, then it's automatic promotion, no brainer after what we saw last season, but he has to replicate it first.
Here's hoping he does ?

I wouldn't rule out a Saints vs Boro playoff final!

I'll be first to put hand up and say Lewis Dobbin looks a real talent especially for the championship, so we'll don't Tonda/team for that.
I said I would judge him this season on performances and signings and so far that's a decent one.
Shea looks like it's a done deal as contracts have been signed and he's off to Fulham. Gutted about that, was a start player for us, with even getting the game time he deserved.
Hard to know wether we can replace him.
Scienza looks like he's open to a move, hopefully it's the Christmas window if he does and not a last minute one now.
All in all if we can find like for like in Shea and Stewart then I'll be happy and providing Tonda has the team playing the way we did last season (to show it wasn't down to spying)
. Then Ill slowly convert.
Ready for the new season now ?

Hi Lesleee, yes and so another season starts, I think promotion will be more difficult than last season with the 3 relegated teams plus a few others strengthening. Plus the 4 points deduction is not going to help. We definitely need a decent striker to share the load, certainly don't have a back up in the ranks at the moment. Let's see what today brings.

Wolves changing manager is good in my opinion. Play offs for me with current squad

I can't believe that the season starts in under 2 weeks and we still haven't had a decision on Tonda. They would of known weeks ago, just politics.
