That’s why Smallbone is on the pitch

Its not a Grammar School any more. Hasn't been in all the 40 odd years I've taught in the area. In fact girls will be admitted for the first time in Year 7 in September so no longer a boys school.

Indeed we will, although I'm not sure there is a 'we'. The only other Saints fan in Winnersh I know moved to Hurst a few years back

Said way back that we’d be in the play-offs but wouldn’t trouble Wembley. Mind you I did predict and Old Farm play off final. To be fair it’s in the lap of the gods. Sadly, I was more sure Leeds would get the job done this evening than we will tomorrow night. It’s a mentality thing. We’re too likely to do something so Saintsy. .

Not really. Rather win tomorrow, and beat their best team at Wembley. Can’t see either happening if I’m honest.

Hasn’t started yet

It's why they're delaying a GE they know they will lose. Maximising opportunities to salt the ground is what its all about. Making the country effectively ungovernable hastens their return to power.

Orange Turd seems to be the catchphrase of the day.

Not running the country, but proud to be regarded as a 'British' lefty traitor, far better that than a bat shit crazy deluded c***. A reckoning? Right.

It was so humid on cup final day. Overcast ish too. Must have been all those planes criss-crossing Wembley pumping out chemtrails.

Looks like they’ve lost the West Midlands. Hilarious!

There’s always time.

Play offs were a minimum expectation I think, so we've achieved that but really given our squad fallen short and fans rightfully feel very let down. I suspect the fan base will be up for the play off semi, so no, not really.

Not sure I'd disagree with the sentiment, but who'd manage us in the play offs? That is a serious question. The decision on his future is post not pre the end of season 'fun'.

Enough of the anger and jerking knees I'm of to M&S to decide on what I'll have for my tea

And if they're injured for the play offs?

Grateful we've only got to suffer 4 more games this season.

Can’t be arsed, off to watch the final episode of Shogun. Will come back here tomorrow when the justifiable ranting is all over. Nothing against anyone for their understandable comments but I can’t be doing negativity atm.

Play offs would have been nice at the start of the season but can’t see us beating any of the teams in the frame. As ever mentally weak, not brave Russ!

Watch it, you’ll wake up GM from his slumbers, and then we’ll have that idiot telling us we’re wrong and he’s right along with MLT, Katie Hopkins, some northern monkey woman on X called June Slater, Donald Trump, Reform UK, Mogg et al.

Lets hope Saints don't go and do Saintsy things today.

Nail on head. I'm so irrational at times I won't even look at match threads on here and pretend I don't care what happens. I've even been known to go out on my bike during important games. God knows what I'll do if we get to Wembley or in the unlikely event we have to beat Leeds in that final game to go up automatically. I suspect the sneery stuff is a coping strategy more than anything else. Most like to rant, a few don't. My view is neither solves nor changes anything, its just a rollercoaster ride. I am less reactive than I used to be. Can well remember losing to Watford 7-1 in the League Cup in 1980 after being 4-0 up after the first leg. Didn't react well to that. Just no SWF then.

This one from their post match comments ring true to here? "He can **** off. ****ing shite. Absolute embarrassment. Didn't think I could hate a manager as much as Brendan /NathanJones but this is getting close. At least he's a nicer bloke."

Its a part of the human condition of a football fan. I got that impression when we were on the unbeaten run on here
