5th is definitely better than 6th, but not as good as 4th.

Come on MLG, don't feed the troll. Anyway, back to reality. Who would take a guaranteed 5th now, above Spurs and Liverpool, versus gambling on an outside chance of 4th (or higher) with the risk of finishing lower than 5th?

There's a possibility we go into the last match against City, with them having nothing to play for, and us needing a result to pip United for the 4th spot. If so, I wonder how much of a fight City would put up?

I haven't given up hope for 4th. But finishing 5th, ahead of Brenda and Poch, would be a very nice consolation.

Kelvin definitely, but I'll be buggered if I am going to give any credit to that bastard Lowe.

I don't think it's that difficult to cover both possibilities in a contact, stating that the loan ends when Bournemouth's season is over: either at the end of the regular season itself, or after their last playoff match if they are involved. One sentence should do it.

Can he play in goal?

That may, or may not, be true.

As I said, anyone predicting 2-0 is a genius.

If he's forced to play again for us, expect to see a lot of these "accidents".

What a boring first half. Hopefully it'll liven up a bit in the second.

4 points from Chelsea and City is pretty impressive. Hopefully that'll encourage your lot to really go for it, and not park the bus.

Yes it would. But even more amusing is seeing them fester in League 2 (or the 4th Division as I prefer to call it), followed by administration over an unpaid £2,999 debt, relegation to the conference, and liquidation.

"Reports of my horrible death have been greatly exaggerated."

Throw in Bertrand, Clyne, Big Vic, Morgan and Forster. Does that make the current Saints team the best ever, defensively? I reckon so, even if we may have had better players in certain positions (Shilton, Svensson, etc.)

Me too! I'm glad I'm not the only one.

Agreed. Only a complete idiot would predict us to win 2-0.

Maybe he's given up with that. The guests (who include jokers, puppets and clowns) are beating him.

Exactly. Why do any Saints fans continue to want England call-ups for any of our players (unless they want them to leave)? Haven't Shaw, Lallana, SRL, Clyne (probably), etc. taught us anything?

Absolutely brilliant. One of the best goalkeeping performances I've ever seen. Anyway, back on topic. Saints 2 Burnley 0

I don't think it was his straight-talking, rough Northern manner which bothered Rupert Lowe & Co. It was probably that NP was a Crouch hire, and there was no way the ruddy-cheeked bastard would have anyone associated with Crouch continue at "his" club.

If Burnley don't score I'd be more than happy with just the one.

I think that's a very good idea (player fouled must take the penalty). That's what they do in ice hockey (penalty shot).

Bastards.
