Will always hate Earnshaw for his goals at WBA in 2005.

To me it's whichever team goes out onto the pitch representing us supporters. The board, the stadium, the league, the origins of the players are largely irrelevant, as long as they are playing for us.

All fair enough. I just don't really see any reason why a completely unassociated club should hold a minuted silence 20 years later.

Ok several things... 1. The away fans were 'penned' in due to a large hooligan element in English football at the time. Ironically, the fences were put up in part due to the Liverpool fans actions at Heysel. Many grounds were redesigned with pens after Heysel, it wasn't really the grounds fault. 2. You can't seriously compare Hillsborough to WW1. Aside from the massive difference in death toll, WW1 was a worldwide event which has directly and indirectly affected the shaped of the world as we know it. Millions of young men died fighting for our freedom. It has everything to do with everyone at SMS. 3. As I said, too many minutes silences and they just lose all meaning. A minutes silence the weekend after the disaster, sure. But for the aniversary? That's a bit too far removed IMO.

Wouldn't have been surprised by a minutes silence, but at the same time it was 20 years ago and nothing to do with Saints. As badger said, if we did that, surely we'd have minutes silences for every 10 year aniversary of Heysel, Munich, Bradford, that stadium that collapsed in Brazil etc. This on top of a minutes silence for 10 years after Bates, Ball, Stokes etc. died. Before you know it there'd be a minutes silence every month and it would lose all meaning.

But Fratton Park is sold out every week. What would be the point in us even getting on the bus?

Cough please! Skacel's attempt to gain a bit of extra height at set pieces was unconventional to say the least.

Right player, right minute, wrong score.

Disagree. We've halved the gap to Forest. If we better or equal their results between now and win our trip to Nottingham, we will go above them. It's a big if, but we're in with a chance. Especially as we're still within 2 points of Norwich and an awful Barnsley team, who have a tough run in. Overall a Saints win and a draw and defeat for 2 of our rivals is a good afternoon. We could be 7 points off safety if things had gone differently.

This Saints lark isn't good for the old ticker. Barnsley, Norwich and Forrest all on 46 points. Saints on 44 with a worse goal difference.

Barnsley pen. 1-3.

Ah sh*t 2-0 Nowrich.

Just edited them in Benji.

Come on The Saints/Blades/Hornets

I think if the Norwich goalie started break dancing it might help.

I don't want to alarm anyone but... http://www.saintsweb.co.uk/forum/showpost.php?p=261282&postcount=31

Sorry, could have sworn SSN said he was still in goal. DMG!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

We're playing against Clint Hill in goal and still can't score FFS! Get Saga on.

Brentford. He's just decked one of his own team-mates apparently.

Darren Powell sent off for violent conduct AGAIN.

Time to bring out the big guns...

COYR!!! Just once I'd like us to miss a hat full of chances and still win. With the chances BWP, DMG and Euell missed, this game's got 1-0 Palace in injury time written all over it.

Typical. F**king typical. When we play Saga we don't create anything, hit long balls up from Davis and expect him to outjump a centre half a foot taller than him. Now we drop Saga, create a hatful of chances and they fall to Euell, DMG and BWP, who couldn't finish off a Mars Bar.

Barnsley 2 down. W00tage!!

Ah ****!! (Norwich)
