We should easily beat Pompey anyway, even if its Sharp and Guly up front. Its a full house FFS

So is the King Alfred gonna be open? Why are we all so sure Barney is playing.

We are Southampton, the pride of the south, we hate all the b*stards that come from Ports-mouth, we only drink whiskey, we only drink rum, (forgot the last bit)

This. On the telly, it just sounded like the Pompey fans were singing play up pompey but very loudly.

The sound of "Who the f**k is laughing now" will ring out so loud on Saturday. The only thing is, there are sections of our fans who wont sing it due to the F word. But really, we want the whole stadium singing this right at them with a passion.

TBH if we somehow dont go up I'll get over it. Didnt think we'd go up at the beginning of the season and we'll have another go next season. However, my worse nightmare would be losing to Brighton in the play off semi's after finishing 15 points above them or something.

I'll take my smartphone and stream the whole game to justin.tv for you.

For a second there I thought you were pop to the Albert Hall to applaud the Saints players who for some reason might be there also.

I bet Reading fans said that at Peterborough the other week.

"redneb" actually. Clearly Brighton wont want to do us any favours - they actually have something to play for.

Anyone else get the feeling that we'll secure promotion when were not even playing. Before the weekend I thought Brighton would when theyre at home to Reading a week tomorrow. Now I think it will still be Brighton doing the honours but away to Wham the day after we play Reading.

FFS worry about that during May, June and July. Seriously, now that the dissapointment has died down, I'm excited at the prospect of Wham not winning at Barnsley and us going into the Pompey game knowing a win will all but secure it.

We are six point clear of Wham with a better goal difference and look at the fixtures we both have. (still a bit worried about RL though)

This is just one of those games. Nothing has gone for us. We were due some bad luck after Leeds and Millwall away.

f sake. Well onside.

I'm so nervous even though were far better than them so far.

No that was the ball.

I disagree. The only reason top teams dont beat bottom teams is complacency. However, it's a derby so we will be up for it and our quality will shine through. There's no way Pompey will be able to hold us for 90 minutes. My only downer is that if we go 3 up or something we wont go on from that and thump them 5 or 6 nil. We will conserve energy for our game 2 days later.

Picture this. Saints already champions and Coventry need a draw to stay up at Pompeys expense. KD steps up and tonks it into row FF of the Chapel.

...and both clubs get points deductions.

Perhaps we can create some kind of mechanical moving statue of Marcus Lieberr and get that to take it, obviously being remote controlled by his widow or something.

Although a Wham win would cut the gap from 3rd to 5 points, I'm hoping for a Wham win. All we then need is a draw at Blackpool and we are 6 points off Reading with the Easter period to come and our fixtures over Easter are much easier than Readings. We then play Reading and even if we lose, thats still a 3 point gap with 3 to go - we should beat either Posh or Boro away and also Cov at home.

I say lets not boo him coz that'll stop us scoring against us. Who remembers WBA v Saints in 06/07 when he scored and celebrated in front of us after he had been ribbed all afternoon, and Saints v Brum in 08/09 when he got ribbed about his wife again as he came on as a sub - his first touch was kicking the ball into our net.
