Still only 5th that’s in our own hands, but down to 4 results outside our control needed to have 2nd in our own hands (if we put a few Wrexham type results together to overhaul Ipswich’s goal difference).

Have to admit I didn't rate it massively highly at the time, but the January transfer window is starting to turn out to be one of the most successful I can remember for Saints.

Score reflected the match in the end, the ref was the main factor in it looking even remotely close.

Oh that's a fantastic goal!

What cesspit did they drag these commentators out of?

This ref is an absolute ***ing joke.

Football. Bloody hell.

For me it’s close between Shea’s today and Martina’s against Arsenal for goals I’ve seen with my own eyes.

Xg just tells you how good each teams chances were. You can look at it and say that QPR were either extremely clinical or lucky with their chances, and Pompey were either a little wasteful or unlucky with theirs in an otherwise fairly even match, so it’s a bit of a freak scoreline.

What an absolute Worldie of a goal!!! Looked like he’d stolen Le Tiss’ boots there! Decent set of results today, opens up the door to autos just a sliver, but more realistically gives us some more teams in the picture to get above if they have a bad run for us to stay in the autos.

Amazing result. Next job to see if Tonda can stop us taking our foot off the gas just that couple of percent now we’ve got ourselves into the playoff spots. Wrexham could go either way now they’ve been knocked down as well, that won’t be easy for them to deal with.

Over to us

Gerrin! What a win!

We’re literally top since he’s taken charge, and that’s with a team that had literally one win at St Mary’s in over a year, morale buried under the pitch, digging it out to get them playing well again when he came in. And then when teams started figuring out his initial tactics for a while, he adapted to that too, and hasn’t lost since he did. No team plays at the top of their game every week. I’m personally starting to think that he’s more likely to be poached than sacked.

Keeps the unbeaten run going at least, point gained on the playoffs from this round of fixtures.
