@CoxieFM @brights__99 @CharooFM @TheFMLibrary @PedroH_FM @BenDoesFM @bennyd_fm @itsShadowPulse @Lutterworth_Fox An ideal setting for another Sailor’s return. AFC Totton, Sholing FC and a Eastleigh 3 good ones in Southampton. For me they’re options for a Michael Carter prequel 😆

@CoxieFM @brights__99 @CharooFM @TheFMLibrary @PedroH_FM @BenDoesFM @bennyd_fm @itsShadowPulse @Lutterworth_Fox Yeah play it your way! Spice up the story. I couldn’t manage P*mpey though as a Southampton supporter

I cover the impact of Spygate at Southampton FC in my opening piece. It was particularly difficult to revisit this as a Saints fan!

@FM_Stag Completed first pre season and early thoughts are that it’s more important than ever to look after your rest defence, in game management and keep things simple early on for tactical effectiveness and then tweak over time once that has been maximised
