Not unless Italy are going to qualify first... I reckon Southgate's going to win something as England manager.

Prowse is a leader, not a sheep. That lad is here for as long as we want him.

That song is absolute cringe. I and everyone around me hates it. We are not west ham or some arrogant club that needs an anthem pre-match to define who they are. We know exactly who we are! We sing are own damn song and we don't need to start changing our identity and copy clubs like west ham and Liverpool which none of us would frankly want to support or be a part of.

The media reports are that Hart is the target because the club are worried we might lose Forster in the summer..... Yeah right.... If you can't see whats wrong with that comment then you are beyond help!

Nor anything to do with the fact that we sold 55k tickets when we were in the 3rd tier.... Nope, we just don't have the fanbase size.

No, just the same people who enjoy shouting down anyone who dreams of investment. The latest classic, we have a 30k seater home attendance stadium, to get tickets for the final you had to have been to home games and you could buy only 1 ticket.... then they were shocked when people with few games could get a ticket.... Nothing to do with the number of seats at wembley being bigger than our ****ing stadium

Can't believe people think Souness doesn't like saints. He is always gushing for praise with us when its due, and usually pretty even handed. He is one of my favourite pundits for saints games. Jamie Redknapp is clearly a massive saints fan though... (and his kid is training with us?)... So he takes the biscuit. But all in all, Sky are usually very generous to saints. Not like BT and the BBC with their massive Liverpool hard ons and constant amazement in how we perform!! As for chips on shoulders. Reading some of the comments I think its more a case of some saints fans have a chip on their shoulder about Souness than the other way around? Or is that just my reading off the comments? As was said at length at the time. The club moved Fonte on. Probably a bit of bad from both and Fonte obviously wanted to consider moves... somehow I doubt west ham was what he wanted but the club then shoved him out the door and got rid anyway. It didn't need the media PR war that we then waged against a club captain and a good servant. Nor does it excuse the club for not signing back up!! - and given the league cup final, that is all I care about! Opportunity wasted as a result.

So... everyone keeping track on who disappears from here then...

Award for most ****ed camerman goes to...

Are remaining fixtures are: Watford (a) - Draw = 1 Tottenham (a) - Loss = 1 Bournemouth (h) = Win = 4 Crystal Palace (h) = Win = 7 West Brom (a) = draw = 8 Man City (h) = Draw = 8 Chelsea (a) = Smashed = 8 Hull (h) = Win = 11 Liverpool (a) = Loss = 11 Middlesbrough (a) = Draw = 12 Stoke (h) = Win = 15 The next two are up for interpretation, but my thoughts are: United (h) = Win = 18 Arsenal (h) = Win = 21 Think we'll get 9th. I should add that whilst our attacking problems are solved, our defence is shocking, and all of the above will rely on us being able to defend!!

No. I feel sorry for Puel. He's played all season without a striker... then when the board finnaly get him one he loses his defence. We need a quality CB and perhaps a new GK and then we will tear teams apart next year. Boufal, tadic, redmond, JWP, Davis, Romeu, Cedric, Bertrand, Mqueen, VVFD!!! Gabbi etc. That is some team that will be fresher than their key opposition every single week. We are going places as long as we don't lose any key players this summer.

Normally Les Says it though (which obviously means the obvious), with RK it may be different.... Time to test him will be next september. Worried Cedric may be on his way, guys is class.

Given that it detailed on her before the match, was put on social media and in the local press, and was accompanied by "walking in his winter wonderland" - I can only deduce we had a lot of fairly inebriated fans at the match! Block 551 certainly got it at least.

We are going to win this one all!! Be damn sure of that and lay some money on it! Saints to beat the devils

Agreed. Don't understand how he keeps ending up at train wreck clubs. Reading, Blades and now Blackburn. The only thing you can say is that he stopped the rot and reading and sheffield and they are now looking to push onwards.

Time to bet on them to get promoted guys.... its a win win situation and either way we'll be pleased with the outcome.... Best case scneario, they get relegated from League 1 next season and go into administration due to the financial shock of overspending on journeymen and then not being able to afford it on League 2 revenues

I'm traveling from Bristol to SMS to get on the saints coaches!! Its a faf, but sod going on the trains, always potential for carnage!

Yoshida and Stephens vs Zlatan. Just picture how you're going to feel every time a cross, corner or set piece gets fired into our area at head height

It was a an interesting article, but it was extremely biased. Naive or rose tinted to read it any other way. Its just another club plant in the press. But then why shouldn't the club do that, they have a PR image to manage, even more so when we've been crap.

He has completely ****ed up. Doesn't matter what anyone says. Gabbi should have been signed in the summer and he royally messed up the CB's. No defending that and fry is a tool for even bothering to. But then 80% of us know that about him anyway. Didn't even see him being positive pre-Sunderland yet he wants to spout his "club can do no wrong" ******** when he gets a win. Absolutely no backbone or commitment.

Not sure why this is humble pie? Was blatantly obvious that we'd win this and I called us smashing them in the pre match thread then bet on it. If people really think we're worse than Sunderland they should take a step back and have a good look at how we've been playing under Puel. We've just needed an effective striker and we now have one! Gabbi's off the ball movement is superb and he links very well with our midfielders and tadic in particular. It's just a shame that the club sold Fonte when vvd was injured, that will probably cost us a fortune in league position come may. Sent from my HTC One_M8 using Tapatalk

Good lord this place is depressive. Saints will win today, no doubting that! Sent from my Nexus 9 using Tapatalk

We're going to win this before going on an excellent run of form, charging up the table, and winning the cup final! COYR!!

Boufal is class. Literally Class. Never ceases to amaze me the amount of fans who know next to nothing about the game - just like with Mane and JWP, fans write of our players far far far to early... And besides all that, watching Boufal is one of the greatest joys you can get as a saints fan this season.... The quickness of his feet and ability with the ball are simply the best I've seen in a very long time, he makes Lallana and Tadic look like a donkeys at times and is easily one of the best since Le tissier, if not the best since him.
