Southampton At Millwall The VerdictSaints fell to their first defeat under Tonda Eckert at Millwall, in a game where they never really got going and looked to have fought for a hard earned point until with just about the last win of the game the home side scored a winner.
Southampton At Millwall The PreviewSaints travel to South East London for the second time in a week hoping for a repeat of the performance at Charlton Athletic, but Millwall who will start the weekend in 4th place will be a tougher challenge than any of our 4 wins in a row so far.
German Club Considering Raiding SouthamptonWith the transfer window about to open in a months time, the season for speculation is starting, the latest reports from Germany suggest that one Bundesliga club has identified someone at St Mary's.

Southampton V Leicester City The PreviewSaints try to make it 4 straight league games when they take on Leicester at St Mary's, the Foxes themselves are unbeaten in 3 after drawing 1 and then winning their last 2 outings, does something have to give or will it end up all square.
