Sheff Weds vs Saints - Feb 28th - 15:00

[Willo of Whiteley]

3-1 win for us.

Not convinced we’ll keep a clean sheet but we need to absolutely bully the teenagers that SW will have playing.

We can’t be complacent.

[BARCELONASAINT]

The pressure is all on Saints, no one expects a Wednesday side that have only won one league game all season to get anything form todays game. They will be playing with complete freedom now that relegation has been confirmed and will absolutely want to put in a performance against the money bags team of this division. I expect us to win, we absolutely have to win to stay in the hunt for a playoff place but i won't lie I am nervous about this afternoons game.

[sfc4prem]

Wednesday might well play with complete freedom today, but they're quite shite, if I may say. Let me just give you a quick formula for this match today:

 

Playing with freedom + relatively shite + inexperienced + nothing to play for + demoralised + injuries to players + playing against a team in high spirits + playing against a team with some quality players = 5-0 win for Southampton.

 

Happy to help.

[vectraman]

Saints to win comfortably 2-0, control the game, nothing to see here. 
Hopefully! COYR

I remember how shocked Man City fans were when they only managed to draw 0-0 at St Mary's towards the end of last season,  these results happen 

 

 

Personally I'm not convinced they were that 'shocked' and they didn't have much to play for so had probably eased off mentally.

[Obstacle1]

I had a dream that Fellows started scoring regularly.

Is Welington back yet? Its only a matter of time before we concede due to a Manning cockup

No i was with some Man City fans after the game, we were already relegated on 11 points pre-match, they had Foden, De Bruyne and Haaland up front and at the time needed points for Champions league qualifying 

It *should* have been a straight forward win for them.

Not much in the way of away fan friendly ones near the ground. Your best bet is to stay in the centre and then jump on a yellow route tram towards Middlewood which stops right near the stadium.

I'm predicting a comfortable win for us today - 2-0 Stewart and Scienza to score 😊 COYR 😊

Few changes

[Edmonton Saint]

I hope Stewart isn’t injured again 

[AllyD]

No Stewart on the bench either???!! 

[Tamesaint]

Stewart not in the squad. Is that a surprise?? 

[Wade Garrett]

Up to Bragg, Charles and Larin to take their chance.

Lets fucking smash the skint wankers.

[BARCELONASAINT]

oh i hope to god Stewart hasn't picked up another injury

or Jander. Hopefully they are just being rested.

Robinson can't get a slot on the bench either these days. 

[HarvSFC]

Unfortunately, this is why we can't give Stewart a new contract.

A real shame. Very dependent on Larin keeping fit for the rest of the season now.

Robinson still injured

Hopefully both are being rested. I think the same for Flynn too. Good to see Bragg starting. Romeu on the bench too.

Jay is still coming back from a quad injury.

Stewart and Jander both missing altogether is a bit of a concern, Presser yesterday said no new concerns. Arguably Jander not so much of an issue, Charles and Bragg certainly capable with Downes and Romeo on the bench.

[obelisk]

Stewart with "tightness" apparently.

Jander is unwell.

[James G]

I think it'll be 3-1 to us, they'll equalise, and I think we'll score one from a free kick

Our squad is strong enough to cope...hopefully. This is what the parachute payments give us. We have got to take advantage.
