Saints V Walsall Post match chat PROMOTION .
S-Clarke replied to SOTONS EAST SIDE's topic in The Saints
It was a great day and fitting to end with a Chambo goal! Morgan was my MOTM though, a great return and a great asset to the team. Sign him up on a longer deal Cortese...! Glad I got to see all the celebrations in the directors box/disabled area. We've seen two celebrations and cups being lifted 2 season in a row now, it's a brilliant feeling. 3 times next year then....? We're def. in a good position to challenge, more so than any other team promoted from L1. We have players like Fonte, Lallana, Morgan, Harding, OxO etc that are easily championship quality (and all are proven at that level apart from chambo) -
The Nigel Adkins end of season promotion - appreciation thread
S-Clarke replied to Thedelldays's topic in The Saints
We were expected to be promoted this year, but after our start and all that had happened to finish on 92 points is unreal. He came in when we were at a very low eb, but importantly for me he's kept calm - he's never panicked or critisied anyone individually (refereres/players etc). He's positive all the time and that positivity will rub off on the players week in week out. He's managed the entire squad fantastically, everyone has had a chance and have been able to play a part and he deserves massive credit for that. Also a special mention for Crosby and Wilkins - they're part of this success and have prepared us so well this year. People were writing Wilkins off and saying ''get rid of him'' when he managed us earlier on this year, but that would have been moronic and I'm glad Cortese saw sense and kept him on. Whilst he struggled a bit when he was caretaker, he is a fantastic coach and a key cog in our success this year. -
He's ours thankfully, bought him in January and I think he's on a 2 1/2 year deal.
-
He's turned into such a sour berk. I really hope we finish 2 points behind them.
-
Win and win well. Walsall should be ok anyway, as I don't see Daggers beating Posh at their place. I want to see us get over 90 points and potentially only 2 points behind Brighton (they're away on the last day too!) That would be quality
-
Helpmerhonda. He's signing on July 1st and will officially open our theme park.

Who would you like to win the Play-Offs? (League 1)
S-Clarke replied to Nexstar's topic in The Saints
It should be Huddersfield, purley because they're the third best team by a mile. But for purley selfiish reasons - Bournemouth, a nice local away game and 6 points. -
This thread is a sign of whats to come pre-season....
-
I hope we get a decent fee for him. Hate the bloke, he'll be a journey man footballer for the rest of his life - I gaurentee it.
-
The MK Dons game, I think that gave the fans and the players the mental belief and lift that they can win promotion. If we'd have lost that 2-0 it would have really affected us mentally IMO. Since that game we've been like a juggernaunt tbh. (apart from the rochdale game)
-
We don't need a LB though, that's the last position i'd strengthen. We'd have Mills, Harding and Dickson there next season.
-
He was the right choice from day 1, never understood people that were against him straight away. He ticked every single box we needed at the time. No better choice. - Experience in L1 - Experience of Auto promotion and play offs in L1 - Experience in the championship - Young enough to grow with the club...

Season Ticket prices i reckon, now we know what league we're in.

Hartlepool 0 - 0 Saints - Post Match Reaction Thread
S-Clarke replied to Saint_clark's topic in The Saints
Lots of bumps tonight..... -
They have signed quite a few. Ruddy Ward Edwards Crofts Jackson Surman Lansbury Fox Wilberham Tierney Pacheco quite a few additions!!
-
He's totally surprised me. What a great pro and a great attitude. Sign him up, more than good enough to do a job in the championship. Not week in, week out - but a great option to have up our sleeves.
-
I'm enjoying watching how utterly tosh they look at the moment, Norwich are tearing them one, should be 2 up really. Once all their loans go and their out of contract players leave that should be 6 points done and dusted next year.
-
Some real possibilities here, out of contract in the summer: Kieren W******d Wade Elliott Chris McCann Aron Gunnarsson Neil Danns Bradley Johnson Robert Earnshaw Darren Pratley Angel Rangel
-
We also beat Ipswich in the cup, and Blackpool who put out a championship level team. We'll be fine up there, too good for this level anyway.
-
Would love for Norwich to go up, what a story. Cardiff always choke though. Must admit I can see why some of their fans are starting to question Jones, they kept hold of the likes of Bothroyd, Chopra, Wittingham, brought in Bellamy etc and they look like coming up short again.
-
No thanks - Mellor is not good enough for us now. Don't really rate Rob Jones either, don't think we should be going for L1 players anymore tbh. Let's buy the best of the championship!
-
Let's just ride on the crest of a wave, we've got great momentum at the moment and should be able to attract some top players in the summer. No reason why we cannot compete at the top end - should be an exciting season to look forward to.

Cracking effort by them, shows how good our form has been that we've finished above a team unbeaten in 25 games. -
