Im really chuffed that Southampton are back.
In particular for Kelvin Davies.
A wee reminder in case you didnt know that 3 years ago before investment came the club went into administration with no money to pay players wages.
Kelvin Davies refused to accept any payment and asked that any wages he would earn in that time be paid to the youth players who needed it to pay mortgages and stuff (he already having earned a premier league wage for a couple of seasons) in order to protect the club and keep things ticking over. On his lead 5 senior pros followed suit allowing the club enough time to find investment.
Nice club Southampton, im happy to swap Wolves for them.
 
Yes, although we've rarely fared well when we've played them at their place(s). Nice club though.
 
They were united's bogey team for a while (remember the 'change strip fiasco') so I'm glad to have them back.

I'm a bit drunk and it took me about 5 minutes to type this.
 
Good to see them back in the big time. Their stadium and fanbase will make them a nice addition to the Premier League.
 
I'd like to offer my commiserations on their relegation next season and wish them all the best for promotion back to the Premier League in 2014.
 
Nice touch by Davies there.

You often speak about Southampton Oncey, your mate supports them if I can recall.
 
Yes mate one of my bessies. Season ticket holder drives 150 mile round trip every home game. Hes the one gave me the horn for Bale all those years ago (when we DIDNT sign him) and told me Oxlade would be ace when he was about 15. Hes also been banging on about Llalana for years so im looking forward to seeing him nex year.
