St Chalet

There are some decent pubs in and around Reading, can't say I have been in The Sportsman in the last 15 years though!

Great result and a solid performance to kick us off in 2013! Out of the bottom 3!

Come on Saints. Cheeky last minute winner please!

Good to hear.

It seems to be a tactic we have applied to woeful effect for as long as I can remember.

Sounds like Boruc has settled in to it a bit. Makes you wonder why we didn't play him in the U21's to blow out the cobwebs rather than against a top 4 side.

Many goalkeeper threads already.

1-1 in a game most people thought we would get tonked in is a good effort at HT. C'mon Saints, cheeky 3 points here will kick start our season.

****chops

Brilliant!

Seeing 2 minutes of Boruc has me very

Interesting to recall how excited we were when he joined! http://www.saintsweb.co.uk/showthread.php?40169-Artur-Boruc-signs-Official&highlight=Artur+Boruc+signs

Boruc has to start tomorrow, if not he might as well leave.

Good luck Agent Connolly. It may only be a month, but it is a mission none the less. Pass on further instructions to Agent Howard and tell him to keep up the good work!

Can you imagine the media hype if they did survive? I would be physically sick.

Interestingly the bookies generally seem to have called today's results as improving our chances of a avoiding the drop. http://www.oddschecker.com/football/english/premier-league/relegation

Feel free to make your point without being so patronising and rude next time please.

Wow, another Golden Thread going nowhere.

5 wins, 6 draws and 8 losses 6 wins, 3 draws and 10 losses

For statistics geeks this is an interesting read. Not real time so won't have today's results in just yet. http://www.sportsclubstats.com/England/Southampton.html

I think 38 will be enough, we need to average slightly more than a point a game to achieve this. Personally I think we need at least 6 more wins and a few draws along the way. It would also help massively if those victories came against the teams around us. So far we have beaten Newcastle, Villa and Reading at home and QPR away, we need to repeat some of those wins in the return legs and be more clinical at home.

Big game against Arsenal now.
