Right, so I get sky sports, fully accepting that we don't win on TV. The feel quietly confident that this was the night for us and that we would win. (naivety 101) Saints proceed to play well. But ultimately **** it up. (Am i the only one who thinks Fonte should be shot? - 1st and last goal he was to blame. Fox equally for the first. He also didn't close down the first Portsmouth goal on the weekend.) Oh well I thinks, Onwards and upwards. hen I discover that the boro game is also on Sky TV now.... Facepalm, another loss for saints? 3rd place, then TV Playoff games - which we will loose? Pessimistic I know, I mean we only need 2 wins, and that is if WHAM can win evey game. But, despite this, I am slightly worried. Having watched the last few games, Fonte needs to step up. Poor Guly looked shot of confidence. A far cry from the man who started the season, although what he was supposed to do in centre mid I will never know. Gutted we lost, but fingers crossed we will win at Peterborough and Middlesbrough and still sneak the title. As for reading, I'm glad they will at least go up and Hope we can finish off WHAM's hopes!

We are going to win this one! I can feel it in my Gut. Plus I have just upgraded to sky sports for a month. and as much as I love the playoffs I don't want to be watching us in them!! COYR's

Its on tv - at least a 67% chance of reading wn. Simples. The old saints are here to stay lads. And everytime you think they've buggered off they come back to bite you in the arse. Blackpool would be point in case.

I lietrally think yoou have no clue, we can loose to reading and still go up. It is over, just first or second now.

Really, 4-1, 4-1...... damn close! Don't know why I was so embarrased now!

Or, his kid died, and he's just moved the other end of the Country. I know you are not knocking him, but others on here need to give the guy a break. The simple fact is, we tried to play long ball to someone who is what? 5'7''? never going to work was it. The midfield was gash, and as a result we never generated much up front. that is the issue. Not this poor blokes ability. Because **** me, if he can do it for the second worst team in the league, he can damn well do it for the best?

So.... four times then......................................................................................... yawn, maybe we should make you manager instead of Atkins?

This is it lads, all that talk about the old saints being gone and dusted. well surprise surprise, here they are, rearing their butt ugly faces. **** on TV and detirmined to not win the league because when do we ever come first when it really matters. Always the hard way. If i had gone to this game I would want my money back, and I would have left at 3-0. This is a disgrace and its a long way from blackpool to home. If the fans make the feffort, and I commend them for still singing away, then the players should make it as well.! At least barnard will get a run out, he at least tries. Feel sorry for Gully, he has at least done somehting useful this half and won us the penalty. Just wish he had taken. great now the blackpool fans are jeering us. At least its not as bad as when we sang "premier league, you're having a laugh" at st marys!! But still. Why is this ref such a TUESDAY!

Dear Saints, For once in your lives would you please be champions. I feel that is the least I deserve for my 20 years of loyal service. While you are at it, can you please stop playing like typical saints and learn to play on the TV... Whilst we are at it, stop the long ball to sharpedo... it does not work. and never ever let him take a penalty again, ever!! Finally, please win this game and if you are going to loose then please one of you volley the ball at the ref's balls.

Comments - why the **** are we playing long ball to sharpedo.... he is what 5' 8''? the ref is bleeding idiot, several fouls by blackpool that are not given and the penalty should never have been given. I hope nigel rips into him after the game to be honest. Finnaly, butterfield is playing like a peice of ****, keeps playing them onside, guly is always offlside. the diamond is a total fail, flood nthe centre of the park with flat 442 aagainst dobby and we would dominate. Literally fuming that we are letting this shower beat us. If we loose this playing like this we will get second.

This is off topic, but we all know it will happen... When they go, and they will definitely go! I think Southampton requires street parties, perhaps on the same day we parade the trophy (Complete with burning skate scarves hanging of the back of the bus!) At this street party, there must be natonal news, bon fires. Pompy dressed Guy Fawkes etc. Streets singing there is only one team in hampshire and everyone, singing, arm in arm, when the saints go marching in!!!" then edit and put on youtube.

Why the hell are you posting to a thread on an opposition forum that relates to their feelings about another club entirely..... pointless waste of everyone's time and promoting the opposition site.... It could have least been to a thread where we are trolling them... but this is 1 sentence about us in an entire thread about reading.... wtf

I was about to highlight Swansea to counter your argument, then I realised that they have dyer. I then thought of the players we have sold, Walcott, bale, Oxlade… who is the next pacey winger in the youth team? Anyone know? Or are we going for Adam and Jason down the flanks next year? Personally, I want to see us playing like Bilbao I suppose we do have de rids, and I reckon he will be a better player in the prem, you only have to look at what he did to the West Brom defenders in the pre season, fall over much ;,…,;

He is a proven goal scorer at this level, for a strugiling team like Donny. What do you think would happen if Lambo goes down? And our backup is just Barnard and connoly. I doubt we would get auto's to be honest. Not after seeing us lambertless during the "blip". He also gives another way to play should we need it, and Adkins and knows him, he hasn't made a bad purchase yet. I'm studdned people are asking this question considering the fuss about "we must buy a new striker" bla bla bla. You should ask about falque who doesnt even make the bench tbh. Trust Adkins and support the saints! Stop getting on the backs of players who look useful when they get game time and whoose newborn kid has died and he has moved the length of the country...

lol

Haha, predictive text. Will/have now taught it adkins

Haha, forgive the mobile phone typos

Has anyone watched the Bilbao man it'd match. They are hammering them more than Barcelona did. Insanely good. They remind me of us, or where I want us to be. More pressing. Fluid play. I truly hope that atkins watches this game and shows it to the lads every day. They have utterly dicked utd, mist be more possession. Than the Barcelona. Man utd have barely managed 3 passes. And they are brilliant to watch. They are the only team in red and white that I care to knowledge. And every player is a local for them. Beasts! 20 year olds literally smashing the crap put of utd! And doing it in style! Atkins - watch. Also their fans. The atmosphere... every stand singing and swing scarves... would love to see st mary's like that all the time. I hope this is the saints vision we hear so much about!

If ever you needed proof about the amount of opinionated crap that some of this lot post - it be here!

It worries me that we have the lowest ranked average, becuase I think we have a damn tuff run in. Its good research but i feel there is a great deal to much confidence flowing around the place. For example, Milwall. Well, we've tried to beat them several times this season.... not doing to well against a club in their position. Hull Away, I don't think so and blackpool away, another tough game. Also those matches are in quick succession, and involve long journeys. We will be leffy as we are so many times this season - example would be leeds, and regardless of the fact that we won, we were also played off the park. Also the games against Boro and Reading will be very very tough. If we want to win the league we will damn well earn it. But I really think this is going to be a total scrap and there will be alot of place switching. However, if we make it past blackpool in frist place you would have to fancy us. And lets be honest, it would be nice to win a worthwhile trophy for once - This has to be our best chance for a while!!! Final thoughts. Other teams seem to assume that when the pressure arrives, we will crack. Well i think this is a mistake. The pressure has allready got to West Ham, and readings mentality will now be tested. Are they chasing us for 1st or were they going for top 2? Are they now under pressure or is it still just a chase for them? They all underestimate us however, we had it tough last season when chasing huddersfield so there can, and should be, no doubts over our mental strength!! Come on you reds!!!

Hope Donny can keep this up, perfect result for us to be honest!!!! Up the Dons!!

I don't get this issue with the Japs supporting Lee. I think its brilliant to be honest, putting Saints where I want them to be, on television, being shown as a welcoming and diverse club where the fans have a great time and the team play great footy..... If you go against that image then please, West Ham is only 2 hours away, you can go pay a nminimum of £32 to watch that ****e, and by being miserable you'll fit in a-okay!

Get in, surprised there were any tickets left but I've got one!!! It's going to be the last derby game for a very long time so I'm going to bloody well enjoy it!!!

My dad is older but I don't think he would know what a web forum is! Hope i can be the wise man posting comments on here when i'm 70 odd!!Assuming this web page still exists in 2060's!! Awesome post
