Replace Charlton with Saints (Beeb article)

[NY Saint]

Thrilled with the result yesterday, my girlfriend can't believe my mood elevation and I secretly believe she thinks its because she moved into my apartment yesterday

 

Not wishing to bring us back down to frustration but its only one win and I'd love to see us go on a run. The Beeb has written the obvious and expected Premier League club gone bad piece on Charlton. It would be so easy to replace the name Charlton with Southampton but then I read deeper and realised that they changed from having a consistent manager and sound financials which we have never really had - yet we still survived in the Prem longer. Perhaps it helped put our situation back into perspective a bit for me - but we really did overachieve for a long time.

similar story to us - sold good players for good money but didnt re-invest and wasted what money they did have on rubbish players

[Mark Mywords]

Managerial changes, money spent on buying poor players, instabilty are all very similar to us. However, the Beeb article does say that their chairman and directors have loaned the club £14M and "cannot be accused of lacking commitment or a genuine desire to see Charlton flourish again", so there the similarity ends.

but its only one win

Not sure it is necessarily just one win - its also quite possibly a very big psychological hurdle - just hope its not too late
