I'm hopeful that, between now and 2018, Saints clinch the Premiership title at Old Trafford while consigning ManUre to relegation. A World Cup staged in England will look a little silly ignoring the 50,000 capacity St Mary's Stadium filled consistently with passionate Saints fans. Ok, so allow me a pleasant dream.

What did I say?

Probably not. More likely to be 3-2 before the end.

Bart can do a good job. He'll also do more than KD to command his area.

I have been thinking the same myself.

So many chances and only 1-0. Worries me a bit but that's natural for a Saints fan.

The man is a true gent. He was just about the first in my autograph book back in '64.

We're pretty good at missing sitters these days.

looked ok from here

Makes a change .... not!

At this rate we're odds on for relegation. How far from safety now?

Anyone spotted that corner we're supposed to be turning? Looks like a long uphill straight to me.

I thought the defence was supposed to be sorted. I've a bad feeling about this.

Another draw then but unbeaten in 5 I think it is now. It would be helpful if we could actually win the next 2 games but I'm not convinced we're anywhere near good enough yet.

I'm shocked.

I tune in expecting the new dawn to be continuing to glow more strongly and it would seem that it's actually still the darkness of the night that surrounds us. We still seem to have a big problem creating decent chances and can't convert those that do come our way. Looks like same old thing then.

I am calm! Breathe deeply!

We're heading for a season or more in the 4th division unless something changes soon. I can't believe that we haven't won a single game yet.

I was hoping we might reach nil points before the end of September. Looks like my hopes were somewhat misplaced but it would be nice to be still in touch with 5th bottom at Christmas.

St Marys is jinxed I tell ya!

Typical eh? We knew it would happen though.

We're never fast enough to take advantage of it anyway.

There are players at Saints that have had their confidence shot to pieces by last season's debacle. If this sort of form continues they'll be too bloody frightened to play at all and maybe that's where we're at just now. It needs strong, confident players to come in and get a couple of wins from somewhere. If we get stranded 15 points from safety it'll be a long, long way back and more confidence drained. Difficult times.

We're just a laughing stock I'm afraid. I'm heading to the hills for a couple of weeks.

Some were hoping for 9 points by the end of tonight.
