Take comfort from the fact that we won our one eigth final
-
The Gunners are in for a thrashing!
-
Bring it on! No problem for me if a player wears his heart on his sleeve. 100% committment is what we want to see.

What a magnificent defensive performance, a clean sheet against a top ten PL club is not to be sneezed at and bodes well for our future if we gain promotion. Pity our attack had the jitters today and missed several sitters, we should have been out of sight at HT.

Millwall did us a BIG favour today, Hull are catchable, we've gained 10 points on them in the last six games.

EFL to vote on extending the Championship playoffs
Charlie Wayman replied to badgerx16's topic in The Saints
Stupid bloody decision. -
Wolves, Burnley and Forest as rivals next season will mean no easy run to the title for us.

Neither Ipswich or Hull have been convincing this evening. Look very average teams. At least Ipswich are doing us a favour, 1-0 up and in added time. Ipswich's game management is appalling, too many hotheads - ffs just run it into the corner! Final minute corner to Hull, goalie up. Comes to nothing. All over 1-0
-
The biggest risk in fielding our first choice XI will be injury rather than fatigue. If, heaven forbid we were to lose Downes or Scienza for the run in, it would be curtains for our promo hopes. Personally I would go big for it on Sunday, our odds of reaching the play-offs are probably less than 10%, our odds of then beating Ipswich probably close to zero. In other words what will we have to remember this stuttering season by other than possibly a semi-final appearance?
-
That's the reality of our situation. All we can do is keep winning and hope that those two slip up on the run in. For both to do so is unlikely.

Romeu should get more minutes than he does. Still has a football brain and can tackle. He looked good for the 5 minutes he was given.
-
All we can do is win our games. Control the controllables as our dear Old Nigel used to say and let the rest sort themselves out.
-
So you tell us every time he plays.

Why would he change a winning team? He won't!

This will cheer you up.

Is that March as in "We March On!" or March as in "The Ides of March"?

Good performance. Loving the newly found camaraderie. There's a massive love-in going on there and it's good to see all those happy faces. Charles should lighten up, he would enjoy it more.
-
Shepherds Bush?
-
We've got Romeu, the best a man can get!
-
We are so inconsistent that it is most likley that we will fall by the wayside on the run in and never make a serious challenge for sixth spot. Beating QPR will be fine but it's the teams above us that we need to beat to close the gap.

Keeping Track of the Contracts 2025-26
Charlie Wayman replied to Over land and sea's topic in The Saints
Not sure he will have any options beyond Saints with his injury record. Nobody will take a chance on him unless he bangs in fifteen or twenty goals before the season's end. -
Saints 1-1 Charlton - Match Thread
Charlie Wayman replied to Golac's Cunning Stunts's topic in The Saints
Certainly a disappointing performance from Saints but Jones team had done their homework, sat deep and frustrated all our efforts to penetrate their front line. Kudos to them but it highlighted the lack of creativity in our team and to a certain extent a lack of leadership when the going gets tough. Scant pickings for Sienza and Fellows today as they were well marshalled by their fullbacks. Fellows had another poor game irrespectively of the close marking and seems to have lost confidence. IMO it was a mistake to start him over Matsuki who has been performing dynamically in recent matches. The high spot for us was undoubtedly Stewart's well taken header, really classy stuff from the big man. Their goal was disappointing; awful defending by Stephens and Manning allowed Carey far too much space to pick his spot but Peretz could have and should have done better and will have nightmares after his howler. Charlton did not deserve a point but Saints showed that they still have much to do to convince that they really are serious candidates for promotion. On this showing they are not. We can expect a similar pattern of play on Tuesday evening and if we can't come uo with some clever tactics to overcome visitors sitting back in a low block at SMS in the meantime, one fears our season will start to peter out.
