    For no other reason than to get this thread alive again, I have a question, other than The Spitfire in town can anyone recommend a proper Saints pub for pre match pints near the stadium?
    Meeting a friend and feel like a change of boozer.

    Dreading the game. How many penalties will Man U be given?

    No they won’t, but Fernandes has no doubt been practicing chucking himself all over the place to win one.

    It’s been 533 days after our last full outing, Southampton fans can return to St.Mary’s at full capacity!

    The only thing I can't see today is a narrow United win. We'll either get something or we'll get utterly trounced.

    At least a 3-0 loss I would have thought, would dearly love to be proved wrong of course.

    I fully expect to lose

    I fully expect us to do something to mess with my head and give me hope of something better than that ...

    ... and then smash that hope into the dirt

    Half time Saints, full time United at 20/1 looks pretty good value.

    That is one of my favourite bets against a top 6 side (not just Saints but anyone). First half home (lesser) team, second half away (top 6 side).

    A guy called Don Shanks (some of the older ones on here would know who he is) taught me this bet - I met him on holiday a few years ago and we have kept in touch ever since. I now call it the 'Shanks bet'

    Don't know why I am negative today about the game. I won the dishwasher game and it was a tricky one with a pot that has to go away under a grill in the cupboard.
