brightspark Posted 2 November, 2008 Share Posted 2 November, 2008 A check of the upcoming fixtures sees: Bristol City (H) Wolves (H) Reading (A) Plymouth (H) We have to get over this pathetic live on tv crapness and get a second win on the bounce. It is important so that it proves to people we are not 'rubbish' and that the PNE comeback wasn't just a one off. Though its also important due to those nasty 2 fixtures after bristol. If you look at the current quality of those 2 teams, we will be lucky to get anything from 6. Like everyone really happy with what happened at Preston. Couldnt believe it!!! But if we cant win next week its likely we'll be back in the bottom 3 come Plymouth. COYR!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As for the next two games following, four points from six I wish I could share your optimism, but I see a defeat at Bristol (TV Jinx) followed by defeat at Reading, with little more than a point v Plymouth Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LaptopSaint Posted 2 November, 2008 Share Posted 2 November, 2008 Beat Bristaaaal, draw with Wolves, lose at Reading and beat Plymouth with a Paul Wootton hat-trick. But knowing this team we'll lose to Bristaaaaaaaal and then win at Reading 5-4. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Andy_Porter Posted 3 November, 2008 Share Posted 3 November, 2008 At least being a 5.20 kick off the Bristol game should be a decent atmosphere. Hopefully the lads will put on a decent show on TV for once. A performance like WBA last season would be good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arizona Posted 3 November, 2008 Share Posted 3 November, 2008 Other than the 6 points, winning 2 games on the bounce really doesn't mean that much for Saints. We have had several instances in the past where we have won 3 or 4 on the bounce, then been beaten by some crappy side, like QPR at home in the playoff season. We beat Donny and Norwich, then were as bad as we've ever been for the trip to Coventry. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

voteforpedro Posted 3 November, 2008 Share Posted 3 November, 2008 we have to beat brizzol as there is no chance on gods green earth we will beat either wolves or reading... Did we not draw with a strong West Ham side pre season and knock Birmingham out of the cup? Maybe we can raise our game again against these 'big' teams and get some suprise results :cool: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hope Jan sticks with a settled side and builds on Saturdays performance to give ALL the lads confidence, an early goal for us Saturday will help or else the anxiety from the crowd will transmit to the players Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Saints won away at Burnley last season on sky. Won at home v Luton previous season. I'm pretty sure we won a few games on sky at home to pompey, liverpool and Fulham as well after that spurs win.

Ash Posted 3 November, 2008 Share Posted 3 November, 2008 we have to beat brizzol as there is no chance on gods green earth we will beat either wolves or reading... At about four o'clock on Saturday there was no chance of us beating Preston, much much stranger things have happened. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arizona Posted 3 November, 2008 Share Posted 3 November, 2008 There is no Sky jynx. I bet if you look at our record of Sky games over say the last 5 years, the average points per game wont be far off the average for the whole season. We have been relegated once and come within 20 minutes another time. You have to be consistently gash for that to happen, not just a couple of dodgy TV games.
