You guys who made it to the game were heroic. Sounded awesome on the radio. Great job, wish I'd been there.

I've never been there. But if they have midget transvestites hanging from the walls, this is something I have to see....

I feel your pain. In the centre of the Kingsland stand this season..."You're going in the wrong direction"..."The goal is the other way" etc etc. I've given up saying "Cork/Morgan/Hammond is aware where the goal is. It was a deliberate pass backwards to retain possession as nothing was on."

I've looked through the entire history of Southampton Football Club. And I've found we don't "do" the first ten minutes at away games. We just don't do them. We sit back, blow chances and generally fail. Ok, I don't actually go to any games. Let alone away games. But I occasionally log in here and once in a while I sometimes listen to a few things on the radio. And I can say as a fact we don't "do" the first ten minutes. Anyone who disagrees with me is a happy-clappy, lunatic, Cortese-loving fool. .... .... .... .... Oh.

Your ability to predict the likely outcome remains predictably and very amusingly wrong. Weren't you the laughable cretin who said last season that Oldham was a bogey team and Saints would lose? We won 6-0. Genuine question: in your several thousand posts about Southampton FC on this forum, have you ever said anything which, in retrospect, turned out to be a little bit over-optimistic? And, if not, why do you think that might be?

Quoted and re-posted in the interest of truth.

You can get 3/10 on betfair - which seems about right. The 1/5 or 1/6 is too tight. I piled onto West Ham at 4/1 to NOT get promoted (as posted here several weeks ago) and have now laid it off at a £2,300 profit. I hope you followed my advice then ;-) You can currently get 14/1 at Skybet on Saints to win the play-offs. That's a good bet.

Genuine questions: 1. is offering to hand on unused season tickets at the standard, individual ticket price (i.e. More than the cost of the season ticket divided by 23), considered profiteering and a breach of forum rules? 2. Is it okay if I seek a donation (possibly above face value, possibly not) to a charity (probably the Saints Foundation) in return for the tickets? If yes to question 1 and no to question 2, I'll refrain from offering.

Seems pretty off hand customer service. I guess it depends a bit how many away shirts they have left. If only a handful, they probably don't need to reduce the price to clear.

I'm going corporate for the last game - so does this mean my three usual season ticket seats are spare or will they have been sold on by the club?

I see the logic of being hush-hush on injuries. although it is frustrating for fans. Does any other club practice a similar strategy?

We get another shot at stuffing Portsmouth. (I'll get my coat...)

Seem to remember a big occasion vs Sheffield Utd, where we needed a win to stay up. Came back from 0-1 to win 3-2. We "did" that occasion. Has sod all bearing on the last 3 games of this season though...

It's just a nonsense whinge from a depressive. There is absolutely nothing in Southampton's history to indicate we will blow the run in. We might not get promoted - but this is not because of some absurd idea that the club doesn't "do" big occasions - for which there is not a single shred of evidence. Please lock.

Wtf? We were immense in the run-in last season. And any idea that losing to Derby on penalties under Burley has any bearing on our chances today is just nuts. There is no basis at all in fact for the OP's statement.

We ain't going to be level on goals scored. We're way ahead of West Ham on that measure.

Still think six will probably do it. That GD is still worth an edge. I think we need to aim to win all 3 games though - we could still catch Reading FFS.

I'm still pretty confident, but it's a big test now. Am trying to work out how valuable our GD lead is now really worth...but it's making my head hurt.

Agree. I think it's quite important they have nothing to play for on the final day.

We should still be fine. 2 wins out of three is still probably enough - and I reckon we can manage that.

dreadful weekend. May need 7 points, not six now....

Starting to look like GD is a minor advantage for us now, rather than nailed on.

Am keeping an eye on our goal difference now. Our advantage is getting hit badly by Brighton rolling over.

In better news, Pompey are 2-0 down.

No one seems able to do us much of a favour at the moment....
