Saint Fan CaM

Where you guys got to - on the M3 yet? We're just getting on now.

Thanks mate- currently travelling up the Avenue. The sun is out - VERY happy!!

Slept fine and once awake at 6.00am I couldn't really get back to sleep (unlike weekdays). Just as well - the alarm didn't go off!!!

Ok, so we're waiting for peeps to board at West Quay. Nice to hear from Itchen-Dan. We're Coach One over here!!!

Oh yeah, if the spelling is a bit rubbish it's because I'm on the I-touch. Ok we're under way. If you want ask me questions about the day feel free.

Hello to all Saints fans around the World from Greyhound coach no.1 on it's way to Wembley. As these coaches have wi-fi I thought it would be pretty cool to give a bit of BLOG etc of the day. So here we are on great day out to watch our club at Wembley. The sun is trying to shine as we sit waiting for the off outside the Platform Tavern. Apparently there will be a stop off in Chandlers Ford. There are another 4-5 coaches behind us to add to the 100 or so official ones setting off from SMS. Anyway, that will do for now- I'll add more as the day progresses.

Interesting. Perhaps the OS censored the part the Mirror have stated? I don't find the article particularly offensive - let's face it, something must be going right for Saints to be given ANY column inches!

Sentenced for just stone throwing eh? Most of the them would bottle a face to face scrap I suspect. Happy to act the big 'I am' damaging property and throwing stones etc from behind a barrier and a Police line. Pathetic.

It will be a great day out, but of course much, much sweeter if we win. Carlisle will be no push-over by a long stretch and it will need our boys to bully and harass them pretty much all game to come away with a result. If they think they will stroll it, we will lose f'sure. Onwards and upwards - watch out for me...I'm the one with the red and white striped shirt on! LOL

OMG - can't believe it's only 3 days away! There are so many great songs to be sung, but I completely agree with those calling for NO Pimpley songs - they are not worthy of our attention. Focus on our day for our team.

We're going up. Nothing else matters right now.

Why on earth would we buy a Poopey player only for said player to be loaned back to Poopey??? That's what the deal is apparently. It's not going to happen. Finnan would have been a good idea if there was any likelyhood of him playing for us for the remainder of this season.

Yep - I saw Spiderman take a knock on the foot in a 50-50 challenge and he was limping. I assumed he had been taken off as a precaution. I think he would be completely gutted to miss out on a Wembley appearance to Gillet who has not featured - I can imagine he will be assessed in the week and then will be asking for injections to get him through the game perhaps!

Don't laugh about Lowe being there and casting his jinx. He was at SMS a couple of weeks ago - reliable source.

I have us in 6th with 80pts on GD above Huddersfield. Just did the results as I saw them, but of course I assumed 10 from 10 for Saints. One error and we're toast for this season.

But surely we've got the day out already? AP has already said that he will play his strongest team tonight - he will be expected to do this. However, with Puncheon not in the final and Antonio injured, there is a very good chance he might rest Lallana tonight I would think. Clearly, we will stand less of a chance of beating Carlisle without at least one of our 1st choice wide players (although Fish could start at LM I suppose?).

Hate freeloaders. However...

An excellent point, well made Sir!

Perhaps Puncheon will use tonight to pick up his yellow as he knows he would miss JPT anyway? Or doesn't the JPT count?

Block 143. Great view. Flag, scarf and Wife's girlie Saints shirt purchased. It's gonna be a great day out.

I would agree with Connolly starting over Waigo, although AP may see that Waigo has played more and therefore he gets the nod. Not seen enough of Oxlade-C to make a judgement, although I am not sure he's done enough to warrant a look in beyond the bench yet.

A good point. But mine still stands excluding him.

Got mine Friday - yeeha - block 143. Get in.

2-0 Saints - that is all. (Although it will not look too good because none of the players will want to be crocked for Wembley - especially Lallana, Puncheon and Schneiderlin, our 'playmakers'. So Rickie better get his tin helmet on again coz' its gonna be a hoof-fest methinks.

Great result. Sounded like we managed to win ugly for once. Given we had Harding at RB, a clean sheet says a lot. How many times have we called for a performance that delivers like this? It's how some of the teams we have beaten have found their way into the top 6. Can we get to the playoffs? Damn right we can - until the maths says otherwise. Well done Lambo, you really are a goal machine. Well done AP - you're doing a great job.
