SNSUN

...and that's TIME! 4 hattricks this season for Lambert - no hangover to the POTS award.

Hey all, I'm a johnnycomelately today! Just clicked on the scores and thought it was too good to be true, until West Ham just scored. Come on SaintS!

I have the final table as: Saints: Played 46, GD 46, Points 92 West Ham: PLayed 46, GD 21 Points 80 Reading: Played 46, GD 14 Points 79 ...and believe it or not, I was being generous to everyone! Even losing four of our games would still put us on 80 with a better goal difference. I think 15+ points could do it.

Fantastic result for Reading tonight, picking up a point at in form Doncaster. That confirms it, we're going to blow it and end up in the play-offs. I'm going to put my entire wedding fund on West Ham and Reading getting auto promotion. (There, that aught to buy us the Championship.)

YAY DONNY!

Come on Donny!!!

TalkSPort still saying Donny are 1-0 up. I wish they were the FA...

Well naked Billy Sharp didn't work...

Come on Doncaster! Do you w00t? Do you post pictures of nuns? Do you respond to lucky smokes? Does punching a parrot help? Well that's our traditions. Here's a picture for you.

If Reading fail to win this, it would be a massive result. Confidence dented and they'd still have two away games to go until they can get back to the relative safety of the Mad Stad. An away win to Millwall will be a massive result for us on Saturday.

Anything like this is only worth what other Saints fans view as sentimental value. Stick it on eBay, people will buy anything on there, but if I owned a chair from the Dell, I'd keep it as my little slice of Saints history - unless it cluttered up the place, then I'd use it to batter TCWTB over the head.

Glad I didn't bet on that race. That was a good race for the each way fans. Ironically I'm going for Oscars Well in the 3.20 because it's the name of my dog - my other dog is called Alfie. So perhaps it's fate! Right, off to work. Good luck guys, I'm about £20 up today, which is pretty good for me.

The analyst before the race said that Cue Card is prone to making mistakes, fortunately (for me) it was Al Ferof that made the mistake. I'm not betting on this next race but I'd have Hold On Julio if I were betting.

I usually go each way on races, as I did we with Cue Card - so I can celebrate again at getting a place!!! It's a shame I have to go to work in a minute - I'm on a run of form the likes I've only once experienced before! Ha!

Cheers - as much as I love betting on the gee gees, I'm bloody awful at it. That was a one off for the festival. 2.05 - Cue Card, but I'm not having a bet. Edit: I succombed to temptation. Come on Cue Card! One more bet for the day in the 3.20 - Oscars Well e/w

GET IN!!!!!!! That's it, I'm not betting for the rest of the Festival!!!

Oh God it's that time of the year when I find myself more skint than ever. I'm off to work in an hour, so can only bet on the first couple of races. 1:30 Galileos Choice to win, although my bet is an each way on Cinders and Ashes.

Which league? I reckon if you say Championship 17th for the next 100 years, you might be right eventually. I reckon we'll be fighting relegation, but fortunately there are 5 worse clubs than us in the Premier League. Still, it will have been a good season, thanks to winning the Carling cup and beating Man Utd 6-3.

:-D

If that's the situation, I'm going to **** my pants, then change them, then **** in those pants too. I sincerely hope it doesn't end up that close - it would be lovely to get an advantage before the last game of the season, but unless West Ham or Reading tail off somehow, I can see it being that close too.

Do I miss smoking in pubs? Yes, principally because I'm lazy by nature and preferred not to have to get up and go outside to smoke. Do I support the smoking ban? Yes. Sat in a booth smoking, I used to practically chain smoke. Now I rarely get up to go outside, and I feel better for it. The non-smokers in my friendship group are still suffering though, as the smokers (which is most of us) will go outside for a fag, end up chatting away, leaving the non-smokers inside twiddling their thumbs. (The smoking lot are the conversationalists of my friendship group.) As for pubs closing, it's a shame. The one next door to me has closed down, although the one down the road is thriving. Most people I know (including me) forego going to a pub and instead use chain bars with cheaper alcohol. Also, When I walk into a local pub that I hardly go in, I get stared down by the regulars that don't know me, almost as if they were thinking "what are you doing in my pub". In bars, nobody bats an eyelid. I feel more comfortable in bars. Don't get me wrong, I'd love to become a regular in my local, but as I can't drink the day before work, AND I do shiftwork, so I can't really commit to a regular drink, so don't get to know the regulars, and as such I tend to go on the odd binge in town, in the bars and clubs instead. Who knows, perhaps it's the social side of pubs. With distractions like TV, Internet, Games Consoles and cheap drink at home, and the fact that strangers don't communicate between each other as much as they used to, maybe that's why pubs are suffering.

http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/football/teams/h/huddersfield_town/8130763.stm They may be gutted, but they stuck to their principles in terms of finances. We're just lucky to have had Mr Liebherr's millions to help us out. Also, had Lambert joined, it could have meant Jordan Rhodes could never have come through. Rhodes has scored bucket loads too - so missing out on Lambert hasn't dented their scoring chances, it's the rest of the team that needed surgery. Finally, some footballers don't suit some clubs - who's to say Lambert would have had the same effect there than he's had here. We'll never know, and we don't have to care, because he's ours, he's happy, and we're happy!

Final Day against Coventry. Our superior goal difference will see us win the league from West Ham. Reading will have given us a Huddersfield-esque fight to the finish though. Besides the key players like Rickie and Adam, we find a hero in Richard Chaplow, who hits a run of goalscoring form from midfield that Frank Lampard would be proud of. Jason Puncheon also atones for his sins with a brace against Portsmouth. Leeds shock everyone and win the play-offs. Rickie wins the Championship Golden Boot, and we have to turn down an offer of £5 million from QPR in the summer.

Hi, I'm SNSUN's fiancee, Azzy, age 28. I will be Mrs SNSUN in June, which worries me because he does **** all around the house and would rather be in Southampton supporting your lot than with me making sweet music with me in the bedroom. I'm a Norwich fan and proud, although I was born in Essex so I don't have webbed feet, nor do I **** my brother. I attend more Southampton games than Norwich games, mainly because SNSUN's obssession with Southampton is deeper than mine for Norwich, and also because you're a better team to watch. I also hate SNSUN's family's parrots, he tells me he wants to punch them when Saints lose, and I support him in that endeavour. My first Saints game was away to Crystal Palace in your relegation season from the Championship. Saints lost 3-0 and I was fricking freezing, but SNSUN bought me a kebab after the game so I felt better. He really knows how to treat a lady and he has a big winky to boot. My favourite Southampton player is Richard Chaplow, and I had a crush on Michail Antonio when he played for you. (Not as big a crush as my love for ex-Norwich player David Bentley though.) I have an agreement with him that when we have children, they will be brought up to support both clubs equally, they can choose who they want to support of their own accord when they're older.
