That was the old ground, Huish. They moved to Huish Park in 1990.

A lot of ifs I know, but this time next week theoretically we could be 2 points behind Huddersfield and Colchester with a game in hand :smt107 I can see Huddersfield losing to Millwall, and Colchester losing both games, the big problem though is us winning 2 aways in a week, The Gas will be tough.

Interesting that Barnard is on the bench, good to see Connolly back as well, hopefully all is OK with him now (whatever the issue was). Can't be bad having Barnard, Connolly and Papa on the bench

Lets have your predictions for how many points we will finish on
VectisSaint replied to Turkish's topic in The Saints
Think I'll go for 77 points. The BBC will then correct the typo and it will be 76 and we will miss out. -
Anyone able to edit the 2nd YouTube clip, brilliant clip ruined by the image of the evil witch, never realised it was at the game. Takes some of the shine off what was probably greatest day of my life.

Jack Charlton said it was onside, so it was onside. Record books say we won 1-0, it was onside. 25 million cases where Manure get decisions for them, one against and it is disputed. Teacher must be a Manure supporter, easily checked, has he got an Estuary accent?

Oh FFS, what sort of dicks are on this board these days? Do you actually know anything about who we are talking about here, his background, his current state? Nah, thought not. If you've got nothing useful to add, then why bother posting. Jeez.

Read the OP, Ron already has a DVD player, last thing he needs is to buy another one even if dirt cheap.
-
They need to make sure its the correct format. Region Code is different in the US, if there is one set.

They knew he could throw it a long way, but didn't realise that distance wasn't the key, it was actually power. His throws these days are very different to the old days, they are thrown in with power, rather than looped in as before, different trajectory, different effect. With us, defenders saw the throws coming, sat down had a picnic, followed by a litlle nap and then got up to head it away as it descended with snow on it. He seldom lobs throws these days.

For the first time the Lowe factor has now kicked in, we would be in the play-offs if the **** had ensured we went into Admin earlier.
-
Nah, I think on the radio its easier to tell them apart, Antonio sounds nothing like Papa. Papa has a foreign accent
-
Thats not being racist, just not being able to see clearly, I had the same problem at Wembley. And I mixed up Mills and Gillett at one point, same issue.
-
A draw would be better overall, even if it meant we stayed in 10th today. If the Gas win they can still stay ahead of us even if we beat them

Burnley v Citeh. Would you leave early if it was Saints?

Wish I'd left early when we were 3-0 up against Leeds, but I didn't, and have never done so. -

Depends, if we scored 7 I would still be happy -
Boooo boooo boooo (This is for Mawhinney by the way, in case anyone thinks I am booing NC)

So, in summary no-one knows, other than what was on the OS "personal reasons" as I originally posted.

In truth there are not really many suggesting that AP should go, it would be quite scandalous for AP to be sacked now. But that doesn't mean he is above criticism. Last night was a case in point with a poor selection and poor substitution decision-making - why on earth was Barnard on the bench? Swindon away near the start of the season also showed that on occassions AP seems to lack the imagination at times to change the game by making switches. We are also inconsistent, very good one game, and hopeless another. We also seem to have a tendency to start some games slowly rather than going for the throat early on. There is something still not quite right, which I can't put my finger on, but I'm confident that with a proper pre-season and a couple of quality signings, we will be very strong next season and will be fighting for the top spot, not the play-offs. We have clearly improved over the season, there is a swagger and confidence on occassions that shows that most of the 1st team have got the right idea, but that confidence is still a bit fragile, and on other occassions can seem like over confidence.

Worth remembering that Huddersfield host Colchester on 1 May, so either one or both will not win at least one. Colchester have a very difficult run in: Millwall (H), Swindon (H), Charlton (A), Hartlepool (A), Tranmere (H), Huddersfied (A), Orient (H) - they will do well to win more than 2 of those. Huddersfield have Wycombe (A), Brentford (H), Walsall (H), Millwall (H), Stockport (A), Colchester (H) and Exeter (A) - at least 3 tricky ones not including Colchester. I know we won't do it, but it could get quite close if we can put in some good performances.
-
Anyone know what happened to DC last night? I was annoyed that it looked like he had been dropped but it seems he wasn't available for personal reasons, according to the OS. Hope it was nothing bad, but seems a bit strange. We really need DC to be available for the remaining games and next season, because he is class.
-
Don't think Pards planned for Carlisle to gift us 3 goals. Berk. Fact is Pards blundered last night. Doesn't mean he should be fired, but should be honest and put his hands up. His reaction on the OS is clearly bull****. We clearly did not boss the game, those that were there, the commentary and the stats prove that. Picked the wrong team, and failed to react quickly enough with subs. He did the same at Swindon away, occassionally he makes mistakes, but I still want him as manager next season, because he is better than just about anyone else around.

Tonight hasn't changed that, it has been a fact for several weeks. Doesn't excuse **** performance and wrong team selection/formation. Even though play-offs were gone long ago, team should be going all out to win, it helps to set us up next season. The winning mentality and all that. Pshycolgically we need to end the season on a real high, with a run of good wins.
