Win the next two, which will be difficult of course, and it's level pegging with Leeds on points before they play again. Baby steps to the improbable!

Even if Saints wins all 5 of the games left, they still need Leicester to drop further points to go up automatically. As it stands, they can only finish 3rd if they do indeed achieve 15/15 (Leeds would be 4th). Ipswich 98 Leicester 97 Southampton 96 Leeds 93

We've heard of the blue screen of death, sky showing a black screen with a clock. It's all Jack Stephens' fault.

As I said in another thread, what worried me today was that Saints were ooking for a out of position centre back, whom is playing at left back and wandering into central midfield, to be our main creative genius. It worked a treat, didn't it.

Not only is Jack a central defender, turned central-midfielding left back, he seems to be looked at as the main playmaker in the side as well now, at least on today's evidence.

Saints woeful defensively, creating chances but not taking them; need to step up. Shouldn't be conceding two to this Birmingham team. Need a rejuvenation in the second half if we want any chance to secure the 3 points. Smallbone to go off, and Rothwell to come on too, he doesn't look good enough on the ball for me. Adams looking shaky too, but was very unlucky not to score. Brooks looks fantastic, and so does Stu so need to keep this aggression on the ball going into the second half. COYR update: good fight back, ARIBO OH!

Thanks

any links to watch the game anyone? would be much appreciated

In block 12/13 there was strong verbals being shouted between two sets of saints fans. as pair 1 were leaving early. After they returned to the row to confront pair 2, and then walking down the stairs again, the concluding comment was "we'll see you outside you ducking retard." I wonder how that ended up.

I would... but I suspect he might even be rested anyway given he played on Tuesday against Watford.

Bazunu KWP THB Stephens* Manning Rothwell Smallbone Brooks AA Mara Edozie. *Bednarek is on 9 yellows....

Texted my mate at half time "45 mins to prove they are promotion contenders or play off certainties...." and it took 5. Subs really stepped upto the plate and can see 4 of the 5 starting at Bristol... Sulemana probably kept on the bench as an impact sub, much like Fraser was.

Lumley Stephens THB Bednarek Meghoma Charles Rothwell Dibling SAA Adams Edozie Maybe Saturday try the Brooks AA Fraser combo!

The XI were on it from the off today, and had it not be for the Rotherham keeper it would have been far more comfortable before the intensity reduced second half. The selection on Tuesday will be interesting.... mega changes last time resulted in the worst performance seen since September. Stephens will play, but maybe it'll have to be at RB if KWP is rested.

Lumley Holgate THB Stephens Meghoma Charles Rothwell Alcaraz ???? Mara ??? Could be anyone. Do you risk Fraser or will there be an incoming winger this week?
