I’ve held the position that we should persist with Gavin as he is a young keeper with the potential to be a really good asset. However, when ever he dives he doesn’t seem to get further than if he just fell over. Shot stopping is too weak for him to be in a winning side. He needs to go out on loan for a season or two a la Lis.

Would love to go up automatically but it looks like the playoffs. If so we would be up against any one of Leeds, Ipswich and now possibly Leicester. Not sure which one I’d like to face at Wembley.

If St Marys was ever devastated where would we play our home games. Is there a decent stadium nearby?

I was born and raised in Overton, a village close to Basingstoke and we had loads of Saints fans. My allegiance to Saints comes from visiting my great gran who lived in Shirley.

Three days before this game I had a heart attack although it was yet to be diagnosed but despite a few chest pains on the way to the ground it was one match I wasn’t going to miss. Atmosphere electric. Absolutely loved it.

Didn’t like him but he was a genius with the ball.

Did we not then buy their goalkeeper? Was it Montgomery?

Brilliant. Most welcome nosebleed ever. But will the return of fans bring a halt to our “empty stadium “ form?

Thought Vestie had a great game
