Southampton's first title? Good luck from a skate but a long time coming !!!

Saints are currently 66/1 5th favourites to win the league, which is probably a realistic appraisal of our chances.
Even if we continue our current form right through the season. we are going to find one outstanding team too good for us, Chelsea, just as we did with the great Liverpool side in 1984.
I'll be happy enough if we win the League Cup and finish 5th or 6th.

Its Chelsea's title, done and dusted. How we fare depends on injuries and morale. One of the reasons we love football is due to the variables and unpredictable, hence how the bookies are billionaires and we are most peoples 2nd club right now.
No predictions here. I'm enjoying the ride and don't want to get off!!
