at team like brighton at home...who are stuggling..should be brushed aside by us...however, football is a funny old game..I would take a scrappy 1-0 win to move out of the bottom 4....then the next target would be the top half of the table...

 

Agree! The only thing that worries me is the lack of clean sheets and we'll probably need more than 1 to win the game.

It will feel great if we can get out of the bottom 4 & stay out & push on would be another big confidence boost for the team what a incentive for the team & fans hope we get a big crowd & the boys deliver 3 points.

 

It wasnt long ago we were hoping to be out of the relegation zone by xmas to do it by the end of November would be a fantastic achievement.

Brighton havn't beaten us since 1981, so hopefully Sky TV or new manager won't have any effect and we stroll on out of the bottom 4 of division 3. When we do I expect we never return there again in my life time.

 

Proper optomism...I like it and hope it happens (or doesn't if you see what I mean) :cool:

The 81 game was a December midweek, just after we had beaten Manure 3-2 with Keegan's grat disallowed goal.

 

If we had won we would have gone top for the 1st time ever, but lost 2-0 and had to wait for Boro away the next month. If memory serves me right, Terry Connor and Andy Ritchie (a regular pain in the harris!) scored and we sulked back to the Frog & Frigate with some gloating Brighton friends of ours.

I remember that night, gutted! I also remember that they only had about 250 fans that night in the cage, very poor.

What about the 86 cup game, I was a teenager going to school in Brighton and went in the home end with my Brighton mates. They must have held the Saints fans back at the turnstiles because the away end was empty and then there was this roar as the saints fans came storming over and down the terrace enmass, it was like zula dawn. And a 2 nil win to boot, some big lads from school came over and I had to scrap my way out of the North Stand.

i was at that game with some london saints boys, we went in their main stand had a few beers and had an arrangement with the bar staff that we could knock on the door and get served there during the second half as they shut after half time, good session just a shame about the result

I think we will beat Brighton, however I do not think we will be out of the relegation zone this week. Norwich will be a massive game for us.

 

If Saints beat Brighton, both Gillingham and Stockport have to get at least a draw to stay above us. On current from (last 5 games) Saints are equal top of the table with 13 points from 15 (with Millwall) If football was totally predictable, no one would have invented Football Pools, but the odds do favour moving up two places this weekend.
