Saint Posted 28 February, 2010 Share Posted 28 February, 2010 We're only first when we play a top 2 team. Even a 5-1 victory isn't enough to get us in ahead of a Swindon v Orient 0-0 draw. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

St Landrew Posted 28 February, 2010 Author Share Posted 28 February, 2010 Steve Claridge made a very good point twice, after both sets of League One highlights, and that was that in any of the other leagues, where playoffs are contested, the teams under the top 7 would be well in contention if they had 40+ points. Not in League One though, as the top 7 seem to be pulling up the ladder behind them. What it means is, if League One were running to average, Saints would be well in contention for playoff status, instead of struggling 17 points behind.

doddisalegend Posted 28 February, 2010 Share Posted 28 February, 2010 I can't believe that we don't get any talk time after the highlights again, that's two weeks in a row we've had arguably the best result of the day and yet they don't want to talk about it. Maybe late kick off might have a bit more on monday night. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PaulSaint Posted 28 February, 2010 Share Posted 28 February, 2010 Claridges thoughts on us from his BBC Blog: Steve, what are your thoughts on Southampton chairman Nicola Cortese putting pressure on manager Alan Pardew by saying results in League One have not been good enough? Peter, England There is no doubt Alan Pardew is under pressure. Southampton have spent an awful lot of money for a League One club and I expected them to be a lot closer to the play-offs than they are. Leeds had a 15 point deduction in 2007/08 but were knocking on the door of the top two before losing in the play-offs. Compare that to Southampton who, even if you add the 10 points they were docked, are nine points off a play-off place this campaign. Norwich 0-2 Southampton But should Pardew's job be under threat? No, not this year. It's too early for him and them - he has only been there since the summer. It's not been a terrible season either; they are through to the Johnstone's Paint Trophy final and you might be surprised how much that means to their fans. Pardew has asked to be judged after 18 months and that is only fair. But, if that is the case, then they have got to be going for the top two next season whatever happens and the play-offs are the very least they should achieve, otherwise his job is in serious danger. When you spend the money he has, you have to accept the pressure that goes with it because people, rightly, expect a return. But I'm not totally sure whether Alan will get it right. He did well at Reading and West Ham but was effectively relegated twice with Charlton and has a lot to prove again now. It will be interesting to see where he and Southampton are in a year's time.

Professor Posted 28 February, 2010 Share Posted 28 February, 2010 Even without the 10 points deduction Saints would be 7 points below 6th place and although they have two games in hand, those are games not points. For anyone not focused as closely on our team and the poor start, as we fans are, the evidence is that the top teams have pulled clear from the pack. The season is now two thirds gone and saints are 17 points away from 6th place. For that gap to close not only have Saints got to improve on recent performance, which are actually quite good anyway, but teams in the top six have got to drop more points than they have been. If Saints finish 5 or 6 points below 6th place, that may be about as good as we can hope for. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

St Landrew Posted 14 March, 2010 Author Share Posted 14 March, 2010 Should be interesting when the iplayer edition comes up, as Saints V Leeds is supposed to be the featured game of League One.

St Landrew Posted 14 March, 2010 Author Share Posted 14 March, 2010 Well that wasn't worth staying up for. Nice goal though. The disallowed goal is a perfectly good one, in my book. Only the ref saw that one, I feel. I'll have another look when the extended highlights [probably more Simon Grayson] get on the BBC Saints webpage. But to my mind, TT was right. 2-0.

Professor Posted 14 March, 2010 Share Posted 14 March, 2010 Sorry, but IMO the ref was right to disallow Jaidi's 'goal'. Not for anything Jaidi did but because of the off-the-ball foul by the Saints' player ahead of him who brought a Leeds' defender down inside the goal area and which opened the route to gaol for Jaidi's strike. Didn't notice during the game and couldn't see on BBCi Player who it was, possibly Morgan, but not sure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is the referee who ought to apologise, as he is undoubtedly the most incompetent referee that I have seen in this division and that is quite an achievement. Photos of the incident quite clearly illustrate that it was Fonte who was fouled in the box, so that if the goal did not stand, then he should have blown for a penalty. But as he also didn't send off their player for his assault on Harding, then his lack of balls or judgement are not surprising. Or did you think that was Harding's fault?
