To be fair, doing a Birmingham is probably about as positive as I can see the season going. So you have a point I guess. That said - I don't see us getting back into this.

Told ya....

:lol: Win a trophy, you is havin' a larf shorely - we are struggling to win a single game, never mind a trophy..... :lol:

Nope. I never thought he would keep us up at the start of the season and a don't think he will right now either.

S hit I remember them, s hit I'm old.

I am calm, and I am positive that unless something changes radically we have a great chance of being relegated. Not the end of the world for me to be honest. Really enjoyed the last 6 or so years - this year - boring, predictable Premier League - not really that fussed if I'm honest.

My point entirely - the gesture is likely to get completely lost unless the profile of the event is raised in some way.

Yeah - I 'beatamax' as well - RIP Emmanuelle.

Right - well obviously it's a good cause Bridgey but it needs explaining to fans who are going to be there. It needs explaining on this thread. It appears that the Villa fans took exception to our total lack of participation in their match tribute to Stan. But it was purely because nobody was pre-warned or knew what was happening.

I can just see Nige scribbling the OP down on the back of a fag packet in order to try to sell in to Nicola come Monday. Nice try - but I don't buy it and I don't think the Don is gonna buy it either.

This is the thing that worries me too - what is it all about?

:lol: :lol: "Compact, fvkin' compact - have you seen us play - we've got more holes than a holey thing..... fvkin' compact....!!!!" My I larfed...! :lol: :lol:

Our best player - really ? Yeah, he's up there, and a decent player. But let's be honest, if the season has taught us anything thus far - it's that our players (in premiership terms) are not very good. Worth 5 - 8 mil if we offload as we go down, less than 3 once we are back in the championship.

Ooooo eeerrrrr, somebody had better explain this before we have yet another Villa debacle.

5 points to save our season - bullox - we'll not get 5 points this season.

I think that the statisticians who are meant to be counting the goals scored column are currently still busy totally up the goals conceded column. Probably going to be the first time that it has got into 3 figures before Xmas - yet another record that Saints have broken - yeaaaaaaaaayyyyyyyyyyyyyy.

I can see us taking all 3 points here, keeping our first clean sheet and seeing RL get a premier league hat trick - 4 - 0 Saints.

lol

Which 3?

All of the aforementioned.

Would never have guessed.

Sky, bloody Sky. Recently moved from Northern Ireland back to England. Without going into all the gory details we were promised by Sky bloody Sky that they could make the move 'seamless' if we opted to stay with their service. Broadband would be switched off in the old house, and on in the new house on the same day - no problems. 'Seamless' transfer. Arrived in England to find no dial tone, no broadband, naff fukin all. Midweek phoned Sky bloody Sky to be informed that there had been a cock up and they couldn't connect for another 4 days (Tuesday). Shyte. Tuesday comes, no Sky bloody Sky. Phone them again to now be told there has been yet more of a cock up and they can't sort it for another 8 days. Upshot - Sky bloody Skys 'SEAMLESS FUKIN' TRANSITION' has now turned into a 15 day black hole. I am currently typing this connected to a bloody 40 quid dongle from 3, that is meant to last 3 months - but given my usage will struggle to serve me for 4 days...!!! Still another 5 days to do until we see if Sky bloody Sky actually manage to deliver.

Is 'playing really good football' but consistently failing to get three (or even one) points acceptable?

Eeerrrr yeah, you're right. Sorry for my knee jerk analysis.

The only consistency that we have displayed, is that to lose, and to concede goals - lots of them too. So we basically need to do a complete U turn on that one and start to pick up points. Will we become consistent enough to pick up 36 - 40 points this season - time will tell. Not very many weeks ago certain posters on here were talking about European League places - how many would now settle purely for scrapping in by the skin of our teeth. Much more realistic.
