Easily one of if not the best away ends of the season for me, and I'd have thought that even without the 3 late goals. Like you say we got our reward too. What I liked is that after the first goal there was no sarcastic 'gonna win 4-3' or 'we scored a goal' but instead a really raw and visceral 'come on you reds'. It showed that we collectively thought we could really get back into it and I think the players fed on it. I agree too that our support is often better with the smaller followings. QPR was another one of the better ones this season whereas most of the big allocation ones have been poor.

My favourite too though have to admit there's a bit of recency bias there. But I've never experienced anything remotely like those last ten minutes and am still in a state of shock/euphoria now. Thought the away support was class too, whilst a lot of stick was given at HT it didn't really turn at all until the third went in, and everyone seemed bang up for it again pretty quickly when the second half started.

I'm not saying we couldn't win them if we got there, just that for quite a while now it's always been one of the better sides across the league campaign that wins them. It's a good point though that 3rd/4th won't be as strong this year as most, albeit I'd still expect there to be a large points gap between 3rd and 6th. If we made it we'd certainly be the form team but I'm not sure that means as much as it seems sometimes. Sunderland were in rancid form last season. Either way I don't think we're good/consistent enough to make it personally. We'll have another slump at some point and that'll be that. Looking ahead to games is pointlees imo, just take each game as it comes and see where we are come Easter. It'd be the most typical Saints thing ever to go and lose at Leicester tonight just as the fans are getting excited about a play off charge.

Would prefer to win Saturday over tomorrow by far. Hopefully we can win both though.
-
I think the play offs have been won by the team finishing 3rd or 4th for about 6 years straight so it'd be surprising if we did win them. I still dont think we'll make it personally. Don't think we're good enough to go on the huge run needed.

Maybe one in L1? Think we had about 500 at Oldham midweek when we won 6-1. Played Rochdale midweek too that season I believe so that was probably a small following as well.
-
Really poor following. Probably been quite a long time since such a low one in the league.

I didn't get one. Must be getting sent out in batches.

People should have known as back then UEFA rules prohibited alcohol sales at matches.

4 weeks notice now according to this - https://www.efl.com/how-to-watch/tv-game-selection-process/ Be interesting to see the draw as quite a few all EFL ties and so if any of the winners draw each other it'll mean some Easter games being postponed. Be good if both us and Wrexham won and we drew them up there so gives more people the chance to go. Interestingly the QF draw will presumably be 8th/9th of March so could see them waiting for that possibly to announce Easter games.

Loads blocked out again. Definitely been higher this season. Not a huge problem for this game as it'll probably reach general sale/not sell out but if they take a similar number from the Wrexham allocation...
-
3 games? How generous 🤣 I think it looks a poor signing on the face of it but willing to give him an actual chance.
-
Yeah that's the way you'd go anyway. Just be an even bigger queue than normal at the roundabout.

Properly anecdotal that stadium thing, easy to get across the feeling of widespread support when there's no structure to it.
