Good stuff, stupid web site has wrong date. In that case good omen, looking forward to a Guly hat-trick.

Don't want to put a dampener on this, but it clearly says this was on 27th, not 28th.

No, its a must win. Simple. I know mathematically a draw or even defeat may be enough, but quite frankly we have to win for it to be in our hands. Really don't see why we need to have Bart on the bench. What we need is 5 strikers on the bench, and keep attacking even if we go 2 up. If we try to sit on a lead we will sit further and further back and in the end will concede and then we will panic. Attack is the best form of defence.

Chung. Oh, player of the season, not goal of the season.

And last time it was Division One, so what. Of course we should not tour around the city to celebrate being 2nd best. Bus tours are for winners.

Maybe not, but he clearly takes great delight in having a go at us.

Not much to do with keepers, fact is many of his recent free kicks have not hit the target. We saw yesterday again an aspect of SRL that is a bit of a concern. Very occassionally he loses his rag, and when he does his game goes to pot. He was very luckly not to get booked yesterday with his anger (justified) at the referee after the Boro player was not booked. He should learn to shut up and get on with it. He lost it at home earlier this season (can't remember who against, possibly Leicester?) and also away at Brighton of course. Not one to criticise SRL often but this aspect of his game seems to be creeping in a little in the last few months.

Poor analogy, tugboats tunr very quickly and have very tight turning circle. Jos is class and your observation is crap. Great header of the ball. Martin is also a great header of the ball (in defence) but lacks some of the skill to play the Claus role. Jose is not a great header, seems to have lost his way since he got his hair cut, the Samson effect. We will need 2 new CBs for next season whatever league we are in, because Jaidi and Danny will not be here.

and we've not lost a match that we took the lead in since September 2009, oh!

Actually some of us have incredibly long memories and maybe thats why we are not confident that we will wrap it up next Saturday. Also people are ****ed off because we blew the chance to be champions. I know all the Sky generation think promotion to the PL is all that matters, but that is crap. Its the "we're second in the league what more do people expect" dry fannies that really get up my nose (rather have a wet fanny any day)

Don't agree, there would have been even less reason for him to go if we were in the same league, would have disliked him (or really his old man) more than I do now. Actually don't think we missed him that much, although he would have been just what we needed yesterday - why wasn't SDR in the squad?

Why? He didn't do us any favours at SMS a few weeks ago.

Just wish it was as simple as that. This is Saints. Another week of nervous tension, not knowing if we will go up or not, and after tamely surrendering the championship as well, that hurts. Boro have a terrible home record, hardly ever score 2 goals in a game, but we gave it away. Silly foul by Fonte. Don't agree about the 2nd yellow, yes it should have been but it doesn;t mean we would have won (or even drawn), teams often play well with 10. They were simply more up for it than we were tonite, but can't put my finger on why. We were poor in CM in the 1st half, Boro completely bossed it, but Adkins turned it around 2nd half. But CM is definitely area that has to be strengthened, only Morgan is consistent enough to be auto choice. Anyway ********, nail biter next Saturday I guess, thought we could have a nice relaxing game still hoping that we could nick the Championship.

A 737 can get in and out of Eastleigh. Had the pleasure of being diverted from Heathrow a few years ago. It was tight though.

I have one of those as well, I guess not really PC these days. Still in its original little plastic bag, no idea where I got it.

Great, another song about a team we aren't likely to play again for a long time. Don't we have enough songs about them already? No offence to your nipper, but how about some songs about us, or about teams that we might actually play against.

Any reason at all that McDermott should show us respect? What a pointless thread.

Mad response. Its the team that are top of the league at the end of the season who have been most consistent. That could still be us or Reading. How can you say we have been more consistent than them, were you asleep during December and January?

3rd best actually, we overtook Middlesbro last night

No need, they have anyway

Actually agree, Hammond is probably more suited to the Peterboro match, bit less finesse and a bit of a crappy pitch, Spiderman definitely would get the nod against Middlesbro and Coventry though. The best bit though is that it gives us options, Spiderman out meant we were very limited in CM.

I am sure Sylvio would be very welcome at St Marys, as long as he brings some of his nieces with him.

To be fair its not just Alpine who thinks there was something wrong. I had 2 mates at work today independently thinking along similar lines. If someone else had started this thread it would have been given more credence.

True, the full list also includes Newcastle, Finn Harps, Durban Celtic, Cape Town City, Newcastle KB United, Gosnells City, Durban City and Mirama Rangers. Other than that he was indeed a one-club man

David, you really are slipping if you think Windmill only played for Saints. You're forgetting Man City and Norwich and even his spell with the lot down the M27. Painer won the 3rd division with Hereford after Lawrie Mac showed him the door (he played over 100 times for Hereford). Sydenham played for Aldershot, as did many of our players in those days, they were almost our reserves for a while.
