CWD Posted 4 March, 2010 Share Posted 4 March, 2010 I'm a bit bored and couldn't see one of these yet. This is a really important game to show how far we've come. Smashing teams at home all next season is all well and good, but irrelevant if we cant get to grips with tough surfaces away from home. If we win here, bearing in mind our next two games are Leeds and Swindon at home where I fancy us against anyone, then by a week on tuesday things could be looking very rosy indeed. I reckon we'll do em 4-2. Lambert (2), Lallana and Fonte Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dubai_phil Posted 4 March, 2010 Share Posted 4 March, 2010 What's their pitch like? Well, it's sort of rectangular in shape, has some pretty white lines on it but I guess that's not important right now Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

S-Clarke Posted 4 March, 2010 Share Posted 4 March, 2010 What's their pitch like? it's not as bad as Wycombe, and probably equal with the likes of Hartlepool/Oldham etc - where we have gone this season and won. It's not a mud pit anyway! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

irishsaint83 Posted 4 March, 2010 Share Posted 4 March, 2010 80 mins gone and still 0 - 0 - Pards decideds to shake things up a bit. Wayne Thomas off the bench and makes little impact until the 93 min. A shot rebounds off Kelvin Davis, Wayne picks up in our 6 yard box, dribbles past the 10 outfield Tranmere players (2 of them twice) and takes a 47 yard shot recorded by Sky Sports as having travelled at 133 miles per hour (prompted by the chorus of "Shoot, Shoot" from the cowshed end of Prenton Park) that hits the crossbar, rebounds out, hits of the back off tranmere goalkeepers head and then goes off the outside of the upright and out for a corner....ref gives goal kick contrary to the flag of his linesman and blows up. 0 - 0 final score - Pards post match press conference.... ".......we should have won but for the pitch....." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SNSUN Posted 4 March, 2010 Share Posted 4 March, 2010 1-0 will do just fine. Goal off Rickies left testicle will do just fine. We just need to win. I agree with one nil, but it'll be Papa's knob that gets the goal. (Even more impressive seeing as he'll be on the bench at the time.) It'll no doubt be a shyte pitch, but any win will be acceptable, we need to start winning ugly. 1-0 is my prediction too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
opthomps Posted 4 March, 2010 Share Posted 4 March, 2010 For all the years of supporting Southampton this is the exact type of game we always slip up in. For any other team I would say easy 3 points with the form we are in, but its saints isn't it. 1-1, but please prove me wrong, and show me we've changed Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nickfinks Posted 4 March, 2010 Share Posted 4 March, 2010 1-0 would do, but 5-0 would be better, can't remember the last time we scored 5, must be so long ago Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andy_Porter Posted 4 March, 2010 Share Posted 4 March, 2010 We had better win. I ****ing hate the Liverpool area and wasting a day of my life there for anything less than a win would be depressing. Reckon we will beat them but it won't be quite so convincing as the last two. A Lambert free kick and a Jaidi header after going a goal behind.

mattyg Posted 4 March, 2010 Share Posted 4 March, 2010 Interesting article worth a read: http://betting.betfair.com/football/english-football-league/league-one-betting-preview-saints-marching-into-the-champi-040310.html Including "This Tuesday something big happened. It wasn't on my usual five mile run around north London, as I glided past 'Minty' from Eastenders....yes it was him!!! No, something even bigger than than that occurred - Southampton absolutely smashed Huddersfield at St Mary's. A 5-0 drubbing of the Terriers was just about the performance from any team this season - and Alan Pardew's men are now 7.40 in the promotion market. I think that's a wager worth having.

Born In The 80s Posted 4 March, 2010 Share Posted 4 March, 2010 I have only just recovered from the 4-3 FA Cup tie under Hoddle so it would be lovely to give them a good thumping. Although i can't see it 3 times in row. I'd take a scrappy 1-0 win. If we can get our noses in front early then we should be difficult to come back at. I don't know why but my head is telling me we'll struggle in this one for some reason. Hate to say it, but if i was predicting anything it would be another 0-0 draw. Fingers crossed i'm wrong!

doddisalegend Posted 4 March, 2010 Share Posted 4 March, 2010 I was at the home match (and if my memory serves me right) we struggled to break then down to start with but ended up winning quite comfortably. We have improved since that meeting (although so have they a little). I still reckon we will tonk them though 3-0 again I reckon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

saintds Posted 4 March, 2010 Share Posted 4 March, 2010 The way we're playing right now, the pitch will be our biggest opponent.

Gordon Mockles Posted 5 March, 2010 Share Posted 5 March, 2010 Normally I expect us to slip up in these games but the team have given me confidence & 0-3 to Saints keeps coming into my head. Worth a squirt. Southampton 3-0 @ 16/1 Lee Barnard to score first and Southampton 3-0 @ 55/1 Jason Puncheon to score first and Southampton 4-1 @ 195/1 (had to do it with those odds!)
