On Sunday, I felt flattened by Southampton's defeat at Watford.
When recording Goin' Home With Adam and Jo on the way back, Jo Tessem and I could hardly raise our spirits and delivered a thoroughly miserable half-hour.
Since then I have been reflecting on how the game unfolded at Vicarage Road and whether we were overreacting on Sunday.
Should we have said "well, it's only the first game" and "it's early in the season, they will get better"? As I write this, the answer is still no.
Saints have set very high standards under Tonda Eckert and we all expected that they would hit their stride early and swat Watford aside. It never happened.
