Fucking yess.

Two Saturdays in a row we've been a goal down at half time and come back to win. Let's hope we do it again next week 😎

That is an outstanding result. Swansea are no mugs at home. To come back and win from behind with what’s at stake takes fucking big bollocks. Get in Saints!

Thought it was not our day 20 mins in, Swansea are a smart outfit

but that is unreal. Dug in and won it at the death. Playoffs secured, now hope Ipswich don’t win.

Fair play to Archer, what a week he has had

Proud of the lads, shows character and hesrt to come back 👏 

What a job Tonda is doing, get him on a 5 year deal and back him with a war chest in the Summer.

Well bugger me. I had a siesta at half time and just woke to this. Well done Saints, Archer and Tonda!

Hey Boro, how about you come and join us on 75 points tomorrow? 😝

Tonda Fucking Fuck Tremendous?

Just like Derby last week. This squad doesn't panic when it goes 1-0 down. Happy happy times!

Thank fuck for that! 😂🎉🎉🎉 impressed by saints mentality not often I've ever said that!

Get in there! Thought Jander, Manning and Matsuki were good today. Leo didn’t have his best game but still gets an assist and did the flick for Jander’s cross for the winner. 
 

Also think it was good management from Tonda to take Downes off at HT. He was going to get sent off.

Just madness to keep winning like this. 8 points clear of Wrexham with 3 to play. Play off essentially certain now.

Just magnificent, and chapeau to Tonda. He really does manage the game and players so well.

A game that needed an instinctive, striker's finish to make the difference. And that's what Archer gave us. 

We're not asking him to lead the line. We now have players who are doing that in Larin. And that's given him room from a wider position to make an impact. He's had to be really patient to get his chance. But he's been a game changer in the last couple.

I thought we did well to get back into it, in an even contest. When we did, and hit that ball across the 6 yard line, they made changes. That stopped Manning and Leo a bit.

But Tonda eventually switched it on the right, giving us more of an outlet there and everyone stood up to play a part, in a hard fought win.

We look to have such strength in depth, with everyone supporting each other, and primed to play at their best. Such a far cry from the start of the season, when the rotation was one of desperation.

Tonda really instilled that winning, not just team but, squad mentality. We're digging put the wins, and not giving up from set backs, right at the highest pressure part of the season. Great to see.

Fair to say news of the late winner by Archer was not well received on the Tractor Boys' forum 🙂

What a bullet volley it was.   Defender did well to lay a boot on it.

You have a different scorer to everyone else 🙂

The ball comes in, I'm distracted by the cat, the ball's in the net, and the camera is showing THB running back. 🙂

I've a Charles inventing time travel and going back to hog the glory excuse too... 🙂

On first viewing I wasn’t sure it was going in but it must’ve been for him to be given the goal. 
 

To come on that late and have your first touch as a first time volley like that is class.

Guess I'm not allowed to watch us live till the end of the season, only times I've been able to watch the last few weeks were first half of Derby and today 😆 I switched off at half time today thinking 'Surely this won't work again, will it?!'
