  1. yup i can go with that, i'm just disappointed to see him on the bench.
  2. Interesting leaving Scienza on the bench. If he is fit it makes little sense, he is by far the one player who creates chances and scares the shit out off the opposition. Not convinced by Edozie.
  3. fully expecting a very tough game against a very physical Wrexham side that will try to stop us playing football. Need Flynn to keep his head tonight and for us to take the chances we create tonight. A draw wouldn't be a bad result but really want 3 ahead of Saturday and what will be another very tough game.
  4. i'm guessing we will be playing on the Sunday given that our tie was drawn second yesterday, just a guess
  5. Arsenal fans reaction, this is priceless!
  6. loved his post match interview, he is so focused and already thinking about Tuesday. Those eyes pmsl
  7. I think Stewart will be involved tomorrow , they won't risk Scienza
  8. one of the worst performances by a ref i have had the unfortunate pleasure of witnessing last night. I was fully expecting him to award Norwich a penalty, he seemed desperate for them to score in extra time.
  9. I knew this would be a tough game after our heroics against Coventry and the ref certainly did his part in making it a lot tougher than need be. He was absolutely awful, let them get away with absolute murder. Flynn Downes was rightly subbed because he was getting so wound up by the ref he would of ended up getting red carded. The atmosphere in the ground was bloody awful, what the hell is wrong with our home support, it felt like i was sat in the middle of a library not at a football match. An awful game to watch which was partly down to the ref not being stronger with their players and us deciding once we scored that that was it and just defend for the entire second half. Great defensive performance but not good for my heart. Peretz absolute class, Azaz very good and Larin just gives everything. Not pretty but 3pts and thats the only thing that matters.
  10. If we get to the playoffs and win a return to the Premier League then Leo stays at Saints. The only reason in that scenario that he doesn't stay is that a top 6 side come in for him and we don't stand in his way. As much as i love him i don't think a top 6 side would come in for him.
  11. wow i'm gobsmacked if Leo is ok, i was convinced by the pain he looked in that he would be out for weeks. Delighted if he's actually even just on the bench!
  12. I'm not sure anyone is under estimating how hard Wednesday night will against a Norwich side very much flying at the moment. We cannot afford to be anything less than 110% ready for this. I agree Norwich will want the 3 points as bad as us and will feel they can make the playoffs. Every game is now almost a must win scenario.
  13. Before the Fulham game i was all for us concentrating on the league and putting out the youngsters but since the victory at Fulham and the showing yesterday i'm all for putting out our strongest side and then only sub our best players off if the game gets beyond us. We have momentum, lets smash those gooners!
  14. I have to hold my hands up because i honestly thought we would lose yesterday and lose badly. I just couldn't see where the spark would come from without Leo and Stewart. Fair play firstly to Tonda who is fast becoming a very popular management choice. He obviously spends hours analysing the opposition and setting us up to get positive results. The 3 in midfield surprised me yesterday but boy did it work. The whole team were well up for the game and it showed in their tackling. Yes there were a couple of dodgy tackles and had there been VAR we might have seen at least one red card BUT this is the Championship and every team gets away with these because of the lack of VAR (thank god) I must admit i would have happily seen flynn sold in January because he was a shadow of the player we saw last time we were in the championship but boy oh boy for whatever reason he has been excellent recently and back to his best. I heard his post match interview and he said a few of the players had suffered from a hangover from last season but he was loving his football now. I think the same can be said for THB who since the turn of the year has also been excellent. Larin is not a modern striker, i don't think his positioning is particularly good or his shooting....however he is a really good old fashioned CF. He's as strong as an ox, works tirelessly, holds the ball up well to bring others into the game and heads the ball very well. I have to say he's won me over and is already becoming a bit of a cult hero. Its great to at this stage of the season be fighting for something and every game being life or death as a supporter......not to sure how much more my heart can take though!
