Arizona Posted 13 April, 2009 Share Posted 13 April, 2009 This Saints lark isn't good for the old ticker. Barnsley, Norwich and Forrest all on 46 points. Saints on 44 with a worse goal difference. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They also have Reading away. Guaranteed win that. :s Good match, we didn't give away a lot of chances ( until the third minute of injury time....). Saeijs sounded immense, he won a lot of headers. Hopefully we can get above Forest before the last match of the season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yep, still think it will take another 6 points and at least a draw at Forest though. Norwich have an East Anglian derby away followed by Reading at home on their next two matches so not exactly easy fixtures for them either. Charlton away on the last day though....

ART Posted 13 April, 2009 Share Posted 13 April, 2009 Sadly, too little too late I'm afraid. Had the other results gone our way then this would have meant something.

Arizona Posted 13 April, 2009 Author Share Posted 13 April, 2009 Good to get 3 points, but too little too late I fear. Further compound by the Watford and Forest games Disagree. We've halved the gap to Forest. If we better or equal their results between now and win our trip to Nottingham, we will go above them. It's a big if, but we're in with a chance. Especially as we're still within 2 points of Norwich and an awful Barnsley team, who have a tough run in. Overall a Saints win and a draw and defeat for 2 of our rivals is a good afternoon. We could be 7 points off safety if things had gone differently. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SaintBobby Posted 13 April, 2009 Share Posted 13 April, 2009 The way I'm looking at is that I'm sort of assuming we have to win at Notts Forest. I'm sort of factoring that in to my equations - so am sort of lookign at the league table with us having Pld 43 and having 47 points and Forest Pld 43 with 46 points. Cheating I know. But then I'm asking - what else do we need happen? What's the least we can do and survive? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Especially as we're still within 2 points of Norwich and an awful Barnsley team, who have a tough run in. I'm torn. I'm almost wanting Forest to be clear of trouble, with nothing to play for, by the time we go there. Too many of our players don't know how to handle the kind of pressure that goes with a final "us or them" game. Today's Norwich win was a real barsteward.

ericofarabia Posted 13 April, 2009 Share Posted 13 April, 2009 Firkin ell ... my computer went tits up 10 secs after we scored and I've only just managed to see that we held out ... unfortunately Sheff U and Watford let us down Prolongs the agony another week or so I guess. Why oh why did we lose against Charlton and not to mention the potentially catastrophic home defeat against Forest earlier this season :mad: Please pretty please can we stay up, we will promise to be better next season (if we are still in existence :cool:) I'm am a total wreck now having spent 20 mins trying to get my computer working again ... probably no different then to you guys listening to the last few dodgy minutes having to defend 3 corners 8-[ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, if you're going to accept 3 points at Forest as a given, then we don't need to do a thing - if 2 from Norwich, Barnsley or Forest don't score another point.

Still plenty on here still hate the fella and want him out of the team. Just where would we be then? Well done David and the rest of the team that was a much needed result.

benjii Posted 13 April, 2009 Share Posted 13 April, 2009 Forest have a pretty good run-in. I wouldn't be surprised if Forest are actually safe by the time we go there as Norwich and Barnsley have a tricky few games coming up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dellboy Posted 13 April, 2009 Share Posted 13 April, 2009 Now I've got to miss the match on the 25th and mow the lawn again wearing a 2003 yellow cup final shirt just to make sure we get another home win. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wouldn't be surprised if Forest are actually safe by the time we go there as Norwich and Barnsley have a tricky few games coming up. I think the mere fact that we play Forest on the last day means one of us and Forest are likely to drop, but probably only one of us. One thing we do want to happen is for Burnley to have secured a play-off slot before they come to St. Mary's! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pimpin4rizeal Posted 13 April, 2009 Share Posted 13 April, 2009 lookin at the run in i think that 2 wins out of the next 3 will do us. barnsley and norwich both have very nasty remaining matches so 50 points might do the job Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
