Saints vs Blackburn - Match Thread

[Saint NL]

Sounds like a great atmosphere in the stadium 

[Holmes_and_Watson]

Blackburn put together some passes there. But for every challenge we were working so hard to close them down. Wood was the one that stopped them.

We're also keeping plenty up front. So pleased for Archer. Not only a good personal game, but very much part of a unit. Definitely benefiting from having a quick, powerful Larin running in the attack too. Well done. Not to mention another Leo contribution.

Ipswich <-> Saints goal difference= 6

Beat Swansea 6-0 and Millwall fail to beat QPR and we be second until Sunday at least. 

[Osvaldorama]

We look a proper side. 
 

Way better than the Martin side. Absolutely brilliant to see after all the shite we endured. 
 

Thank you Tonda 

[trousers]

Sky give Archer MotM

[adrian lord]

I can see Tonda managing Bayern Munich in the future. 

[Saint NL]

Has Scienza always been a ginger?

Archer ?

MOTM. 

Good lad - really pleased for him.

[Behind Enemy Lines]

Waiting for the inevitable idiotic pingpong comment. 

[Saint NL]

Don't we have groundsmen? Why's the keeper doing the flag 😂

[Sheaf Saint]

"Not exactly the Krypton factor is it"

🤣🤣🤣

[CB Fry]

Manchester City we're coming for you

[trousers]

"Manchester City, we're coming for you" 😂

Congratulations again my friend !

Let's go to the 18' ! ❤️🤍

Nice little bit of tracking back from Jay. Forcing  their player into a poor cross. Nice to see him back.

That was a pleasant Tuesday evening!

FT: Saints 3-0 Blackburn

[trousers]

Of all the nights not to be able to post a league table FFS... 

[SNSUN]

Swansea and Zipotnik will be a different beast but a great night of results for us.

[OttawaSaint]

Fantastic!

This is surreal!!

FT at Fratton 2-0 

[kwsaint]

I never thought 2nd was on…

 

 

 

… until tonight.

[Bobbyboy]

502 Bad Gateway here we go....

[Saint NL]

Enjoyed that. 

Everyone in Hampshire happy tonight. I'm starting to believe that the automatic places are possible.

[trousers]

Looking forward to how unemotional Tonda will be in the post match interview 😂

[Turkish]

Did i mention since i said we’d never lose again we are, in fact, unbeaten?

[Saint_clark]

Just saying, the only way we can match the 25 unbeaten record this season is if we win every game in the league and the FA cup...and the community shield would be to beat it!

[trousers]

So happy for Archer... Should do his confidence the world of good

[Toadhall Saint]

Well done Saints! CL my mom. 

[Saint Fan CaM]

Superb win - honestly didn’t think it was going to be that easy tbh.

Amazing to see the great team spirit now - even the likes of Scienza and loanees seem to be a big voice/presence.

I must have missed that.

[Swaythling Saint]

Very professional performance, didn't really need to get out of second gear.  So pleased for Archer, assist and well taken goal

[PerthshireSaint]

I …. What ?

Give me her number and I will

[SaintsBarry74]

What an unreal team after we got in a proper GK. That's pretty much been the catalyst - prior to that people here were calling for Tonda's head. 

Same catalyst in our previous promotion.

[LaptopSaint]

Well done Cam Archer - fair play. Larin brilliant too. Easy street.

[Mr X]

So what exactly was said to Acher before the game? Looks a different player tonight like someone else has possessed his body! Maybe it was a shape up or ship out from tonda! 😉

[coalman]

The best part was how happy everyone in the team was for Archer to score. The team spirit is something else at the moment.

[woodsaint1]

Cyle Larin was excellent, and has been for a few games now. The deadline day doom and gloom is looking rather silly now. Hes been an inspired signing

Was this not just league games? No it was not just checked. I thought we lost to Bristol City after going out the league cup to Liverpool.

Well done archer on the goal and assist can only be a good thing to get his confidence up as well .. gives a different option if we need it. Larin gotta be motm for work rate alone was everywhere even back defending. Good to see wellington back as well. 3-0 win without scienza and azaz even starting .. we are just cooking no matter what team we put out . 
 

is breezy ok though he’s one we can’t really afford to lose ?

[influx]

What a time to be alive 

[BotleySaint]

Perfect night and all we could ask for.

But we still need Ipswich to slip up a few more times to have any hope of 2nd.

Hoping it was just Tonda giving him a rest with 2 games a week now
