Southampton F.C. - 29 Wins 8 Draws 9 Losses - Winner of Coca-Cola Championship League!

Manager's Statement:

Going into this year I made it clear that the expectation would be to finish mid-table yet I was confident in our abilities so I had the goal of making it to the Premier League. It looks like all the signings, practices, long trips and hard work by the entire staff and every player has paid off. I got quite nervous with 12 games to play and Sacha Kljestan went down for 10 weeks but we pushed through it. Southampton will finally be back in the Premier League starting next year. I am extremely excited for everyone involved with this team but especially the fans, they deserve this. That's pretty much it. I look forward to seeing everyone next year!
