I reckon that Southampton

Will start fading away soon, and it will be between west ham, brum, Leicester and us fighting for top 2

I hope they do but I would say they look stronger than Norwich did last season

if "our ex manager" was in charge of them then I would agree but i think they are quality and we can't let them get too far ahead nor they'll have it wrapped up by easter.

They've a good manager and a strong team that has been together for many seasons.

Not a lot of teams will beat them........BUT WE FECKING DID

they have won something like 26 home games in a row, I went down to St marys with a mate and watched them beat boro 3-0 couple of weeks back and I was amazed how good they were that day. But hey you never know

I Said at the start of the season that WHU would go up as champions or 2nd placed in this league ( IMO ).

As for Southampton - i have said for weeks (not on this forum) i agree with you llwynpia bluebirds
I Think they will fall away - the key here is their home results - so far they have been 100% but can't see this at the end of the season...

southampton are mickey mouse, they'v got to mess up soon, I think the gap is gonna form soon, its gonna be top 3 maybe four out in front west ham I think will grab the spot , but stranger things have happened!

Brum and leicester both scary, and leicester are due revenge

i think everyone in this thread is just wishful thinking !!.

the saints havent showed much if any sign of slowing down :p yes we can all hope but atm i see no reason why they would slow down

i dont think southampton will mess up, their squad has been together now for almost 3 seasons... if you remember they started the yr b4 last with a - points tally and they only missed out on the play offs by a small number of points...

the following season same squad a bit of quality added and they win the league.. i feel they will be in and around the play offs , i think west ham def will win the league, brum will strengthen in jan but with europe they have a lot of games coming up... think they will be in the play offs...

i feel the second place is going to be up for grabs again.. but we cannot rule anyone out.. remember readings run after xmas last yr??

Speaking to a Southampton fan the other week, they have got a big squad and have been rotating players and still winning, I can see them staying up there, plus they have got a lot of money and have been building for this over the last few years. Its no coincedence they are doing well.

Play Offs at best for us.
We are doing well -above expectations and others are below - form and squad size will have an impact on all sides - we're doing fine but don't start wishing then playing fcuk if we lose or draw games and saying Malkys lost it. Here's year for the long haul. And he's only just starting phase 1

Didnt Brighton win the league last season?

I agree Southampton have a very tough run of games home and away until the end of January. The league will look a lot different by then

Cant see Southampton or West Ham messing up.

We want promotion it is going to be through the play offs. That does not sound good does it.

we all said the same about qpr this time last season that they would drop out.
