Wow that`s a lot of years.
Best years of my life 72/73 now I know why

Great win, proper party atmosphere at the game, could have been 10 goals, as we missed some other good chances.

Firpo and James the standouts for me but everyone played their part.

Really happy for Gnonto and Joseph getting on the scoresheet, both going through a dry patch.

Hoping this is the game that really kicks on our season now.

That was one for our long suffering supporters. I was a lucky lad and managed to get a ticket yesterday. My first game was September ‘75 so I didn’t see the famous Southampton 7-0, so it was a privilege to be there yesterday. I said to my mate after the second it could be 4 or 5 today, but never expected 7. We seemed energised yesterday, and everyone including the subs played their part. You’d have to give Dan James M.O.M. To put the first 2 on a plate for Aaronson and Solomon, score a goal and then win the penalty for the 4th was pretty impressive, and it was game over by the time he left the field. Thought Firpo really added something yesterday, and having a naturally left footed player made a big difference when he was getting beyond defenders and crossing the ball. Byram has been a rock, but Farke has a real selection problem after yesterday for the next game. With Struijk back it also gives Farke a nice headache for centre back/midfield. I personally think Rothwell gives us the best balance in midfield, but I don’t pick the team. Anyway, happy days.

Anyone heard anything further on Archer or any other striker ? can't see much on the socials at present

At 8am it was reported we are in the box seat to sign Archer.
By 10am it`s saying it`s now unlikely we sign him.
I`m sure it is going to be one of those last minute jobs if in fact it ever goes through.
Disappointing but no surprise.

We are now linked with Adam Armstrong at Southampton.
Tbf I wouldn`t mind him on loan as he is proven at Championship level.

I think Archer is better, and has a higher ceiling, but I don't think we'll sign anyone

Inheacho gone to Middlesbrough. It’s sounding like we’re waiting for a few dominoes to fall if we are to get Archer. Southampton being very stubborn considering new manager won’t play him at all
