hypochondriac Posted 19 August, 2011 Share Posted 19 August, 2011 Say we are top of the league! . One of my favourite things about the result on Tuesday is that I knew we would be top until Saturday so I could really enjoy it. Who knows, this could be the only time we are there this season and as it's the first time we have been top of a league that I can remember at the moment, it's worthy of a tiny celebration! Has anyone else had a little look at the table since Tuesday despite promising themselves that they weren't going to bother until September?

You never know though I think it is unlikely. It is nice to see a Southampton team on top of the league though. Stupid I know after just three games but I am loving it!

woodfc Posted 19 August, 2011 Share Posted 19 August, 2011 We're emulating Norwich at the moment, going from the third division and looking at the first, only they lost their first game in this division 1 - 7. We've done a bit better. Early doors though! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dune Posted 19 August, 2011 Share Posted 19 August, 2011 And Leicester are nothing special. They are a team thrown together and it'll take them a season to gel. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tony F Posted 19 August, 2011 Share Posted 19 August, 2011 And Leicester are nothing special. They are a team thrown together and it'll take them a season to gel. I am quoting the right quote.....and I concur with this. Leicester have apparently spent the most money in this division but I see no sign that they yet have the balance and understanding Saints do - that takes a while to develop. I see them as being vulnerable for a while yet - and should then get better provided they are not at each others' throats. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We've done a bit better. Early doors though! Nope, they lost 7-1 to Colchester on the first day of the 2009/10 season in L1. Last season they lost their first game 3-2 to Watford. Still, we've already started better than them! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sussexsaint Posted 19 August, 2011 Share Posted 19 August, 2011 It's not just the 3 wins , it's the manor in which they were won. We are the south coast Brazil. We are not just one trick ponies. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hutch Posted 20 August, 2011 Share Posted 20 August, 2011 That's the point,. In my 40+ years supporting Saints, we've always put on a great show and got an unexpected result a couple of times every season. Now ..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
