the saint in winchester

I too was in the sightline from striker to goal and can advise the shot flicked off Butters boot, deflecting the shot past KD's near side post.

No-one covered themselves in glory today - except Johnno Quick, of course. Typical tight limbed performance after a break. Hopefully that should have woken them up and we can keep winning.

I recalled this thread on here when the second goal went in .. FACT .... cometh the hour, cometh the man. Didn't need to use his Johnno Quick pace, just be in the right place at the right time.

Thanks Dave. That goes along with your other classics like "what we don't want to do now, Adam, is concede a goal"!!!! You don't say?!

I have to say, Turkish, every one of your comments in this thread has made me laugh. Yeah, let's give Jonno Quick a run in the side. This is his time to shine.

Now that made me laugh!

Agree with all that. And we are too inconsistent to be confident about playoffs. Feel like some wrist-slitting now ...

Won't happen. Poyet knows which side his bread is buttered. He is revered at Brighton.

Surely that should be reported as a potential conflict of impartiality???!!!

I have to say I'm with the OP on this. Sure, its likely that the other two will drop some points .. but we can't rely on it. To win every game - wow, a tall order, but Peterborough are flying. Thought Brentford had done us a favour but they conceded in injury time vs Hudders. We need to have the mentality that to win every game is achievable. If we do it, we are promoted. Like the man says, "its as simple as that"!!! Now watch Sheff Wed come and take points off us. ...

I see Forecast was on the bench yesterday. Presume his loan with whoever (Grimsby?) is over and he is back amongst us? Does this mean James Shea has returned to Arsenal? Does anyone feel confident that Forecast would be up to the job if called on?

Depressing result. Those who go on about how many games we have in hand and assume we will get maximum points should think about tonight's result. Can't beat points on the board. Forget games in hand. We are 5th. We may get no higher than that. We could even slip from that. Forget automatic promotion, we are playing for a playoff place now. Fasten your seat belts, we're in for a couple of months of turbulence.

Yeah, but what a goal that 1 goal was! I thought we had a cracking player in on loan, but sadly he never found the net again ...

I thought LadySaint was putting her shed up for auction .... no shed for sale then?

"what a player he WAS" for Man U. What a shadow of the player that he was that became with us. Lost all his pace by then. Happens to us all ....

ah. nickname of 'crop circles' ... and we all know why!

If we play like that nearly every game - no cutting edge - we need to make signings ... This Algerian (rumoured) could be just what the doctor ordered!

Ref crap, yes, but don't blame the subs. Lambo, Barney and Guly had a poor game ... only Butters, Chambo and Chappers shone.

"Interesting" ???? SAF would have been telling them 'keep it tight, guys, we can win this any time." Now .... they're gonna rip at us like a lion after an antelope! Hehe, good time to score, huh. Although on 46 mins would have been better!

Yeah, pre-match Coldplay concert. Rick wotsit (drummer) already a Saints fan. Gywnneth Paltrow taking over from Stewart Dennis ... it's all good.

Pretty boring tonight. Too much waffle anout Bournemouth and Plymouth's finances. Should please our south western friend above though.

I can't disagree with your jokey original post - as I thought the same on Tue night. Goal diarrhoea on Tue, we get goal constipation today. I thought then : "can we save some of these goals in case we need them on Sat?" And sure enough, we did. One of those days. It's actually bad news for you, Brighton, as you now have to worry about Hudders, as well as Saints. But keep winning, and you need fear no-one. Start drawing or losing, then be afraid, be very afraid.

As Delboy said to Rodney one time .... we've 'ad worse days!

Yeah. my lad read that to me. I laughed. If that ain't controlling a match, I don't know what is!
