Tricky tie, go strong for this one with one or two exceptions. I would have the quicker Quarshie instead of Jack and give LND a start over Larin probably I'd start: Pezza, Brezza, Harwood-Bezza, Quezza, Mezza, Dezza, Jandezza, Matsukezza, Azezza, Scezza, Stezza. If we're going to drop points in a League game in the last 4, the Ipswich game is most likely as it is our toughest fixture left, but this Swansea game is probably next most likely although effectively Swans are on the beach, as are Bristol City and Preston. Win today and I think we go into that Ipswich game with it being a promotion six pointer.

Duncan Spedding was the first player I edited on CM 97/98 to have perfect 20 attributes and he was amazing. I forget why I chose him but maybe somehow I knew that nearly 30 years later this question would arise on a Saints forum and I could then say: I'll take the perfect attribute Duncan Spedding to rip City apart.

Glad someone else knew that reference. 😜

That's Gilly Gilly Ossenfeffer Katzenellenbogan. 😝

Got mine this morning and I'm going alone but every time I chose a seat it said it was taken. I got there in the end. Least I can say I was there when we smashed City 4 nil.

Just did the research that the last time we won 5 League games in a row (we we have now) was our promotional League One campaign under the always sexy Nigel Adkins when we actually won 6. So beat Swansea and we equal that 6. We've won a few 4-League-games-in-a-row in the last 15 years but not 5 (well 6 as it was then) since 2011. I refuse to do the research on when we last won 7 League games in a row. I'm not that disciplined but I'd estimate a guess as it being in the 80s.

They're only a year apart in age and are as good as they're ever going to be as they reach their late-peak careers. Larin is quicker, more mobile and he was defending tonight like his life depended on it. Stewart is possibly better at holding the ball up, is probably the more intelligent footballer and, though it is tight, probably the better finisher. There are fine margins but for pace and work rate alone I'd go with Larin for the Semi. LND can come off the bench and score our 6th.

Millwall might have something to say about that as they play first and will probably beat QPR. We're not the only two teams in the race. Boro winning is plausible though. Swansea away feels like one of those fixtures we could muff up somehow but that's probably the Saints fan of old in me. TondaTeam is relentless.

Both, Tonda will continue to rotate. For me Larin plays against Swansea, Man City and Ipswich, Stewart gets Bristol City and Preston. I'd also start Larin in the FA Cup final.

If we have to win the play-offs to go up, so be it. We don't seem to fear anyone right now, and since we went 4 at the back, Peretz and Larin came and in and we got Bree back, we're on fire. I still don't think we'll make second, but we should not fear the play-offs. Really only a suspension or injury to a key player like Peretz or maybe THB, a terrible refereeing decision or simply meeting a team playing at the very top of their game, will probably stop us now. Tonda has them very well prepared.

Give it a rest Will Still...

There must be one. The forum always has a nemesis. Umm, Jamie Jones you prick. 🤪😜

4 games to play to decide our fate, or 9 if we make the finals of both competitions.

Amazing to think a week ago we went into the Wrexham game thinking it was the 6 pointer for who would finisb in the play-offs and now we are 8 clear of them and 3 points behind 2nd. Funny old game.

Swansea and Zipotnik will be a different beast but a great night of results for us.
