  1. Fancy us to do well & make the playoffs we have a good squad already I think Adkins will have some money to spend if he makes some good signings we will have a great chance. We have momentum & confidence I hope we take that into next season & push on why not we are a good side
  2. Brentford Bournemouth & Dagenham all great days out brilliant atmosphere I would say Brentford edge's it managed to get a beer in all 4 of the pubs round the ground great day out. Gutted regarding the plymouth game was in the Lyndhurst stand & got outed at half time so missed 2nd half it turned very nasty in there a fair few Saints fans took a right kicking (not us but we got spotted and pinged out) The worst Rochdale 6 & half hours to get there late shame as it is a very nice ground but it turned out to be a pants away day
  3. What a trip this was the night out in Bucharest was mental no sleep at all, the sights of the shanty homes that were along side the road to the ground people living in shelters made out of corrogated iron & plastic with the weather they have was a eye opener. I remember the police being very heavey handed getting us into the ground hours before kick & then the rain I have never been so wet at football there ground was falling to bits. The Bucharest fans were amazing very very mental great turn out by the Saints fantastic atmosphere fantastic trip loved it
  4. I hope we can do it Saturday we need to win at Brentford & hope BHA do the decent thing & smash Udders then I can relax however I have had a feeling for ages that it will be the Plymouth game where we get promoted. I hope the team are not as over confident as us lot but since the epic win at Brighton I just believe we are going up very glad I have tickets for our last 3 games really looking forward to this weekend 1st time all season I have wanted Brighton to win a game
  5. £50 return leaving from Central at 9.10 1 change gets to Plymouth 12.50 Trainline.com this is the 1 I will be on but still searching for a better deal havent booked it yet anyone else on the same Train ?
  6. We got the 3 points that is what mattered kept going & trying to score eventually we wore them down there keeper was top class fantastic save from Guly's volley DC came on & changed the game he could be very important with Barny getting injured he was very lively very clever with his movement & got his foot in Another game done & 3 hard points earned onto Brighton we could do with getting something out of this game COYS
  7. Just hope they are not at it they are already champions if they are not 100 % at it I fancy us to get something from the game a win would be fantastic but I would be pleased with a point. Fair play to Brighton I wish we had the season they are having maybe we should have done but we have to hang on to 2nd I hope we can go & spoil there party a little bit COYS
  8. Agreed that is likely we will see more than 2 or 3 new players some like Chambo we wont want to lose & we are short of quality wingers hence the diamond system we have been playing. It would be good to keep the spine of the team in place I dont think we need a total rebuilding job in the summer but you could make a case for changing a lot of our players IF we manage to get up the squad we have got should & could do well. Has Kelvin had his day ? I think he has done enough to stay our number 1 I have been as frustrated as many with him at times, don't get me started on the crosses he should deal with but he has done a good job & is a decent keeper & Bart is good back up We do lack quality in centre midfield, we do need wingers & a Striker I think we are ok at the back
  9. There have been 2 transfer windows since they have been promoted they are both playing the majority of players that got them promoted from League 1 Norwich havent spent much at all & Leeds havent spent mega money. Yes they have both brought players in & shipped quite a few fringe players out however they are still in the mix with mostly the same team as last season & Leeds lost there top Striker to Everton. So with the squad we have and a few additions we should do well just hope we get the chance to show it.
  10. I really hope that we are discussing this thread again in June & we have got over the line ! I would agree that we don't need wholesale change 2 or 3 Quality signings at least 1 in centre midfield a winger & a striker but our squad at the moment could compete. Norwich & Leeds have not made loads of signings & they are right up there challenging Millwall are also doing ok I firmly believe we would do very well fingers crossed we get to find out
  11. Gutted we didnt get anything from the Rochdale game 6 hours to get there late but just in time to see there goals go in GRRRRR ! if we could have got a point & put some daylight between us & Udders I would be feeling so much better. I still think we are going to do it but it will be squeaky bum time as Fergy would say must win our home games I think we will win at Plymouth draw at Brentford lose at BHA but 13 points should do it. I hope we get a early goal Saturday against the Gas to settle the nerves come on Mr Lambert time for a hat trick me thinks
  12. Good luck to those who are going take your telescope if you want to see anything of the game went last season rubbish couldnt see a thing there fans are going to be smug as **** as well. I hope we smash them & spoil the party nothing against them in general they deserve to be going up best & most consistent team no argument but they seem to have a chip on there shoulder for us & it is a truly s h i t ground
  13. We need some bouncebackability you have to back Lambo to score we have to get the 3 points I am keeping the faith & going for a 3 1 win to the mighty Saints. Come on you Saints lets do this you have to think Udders & Posh will win we need the win to hang on to 2nd spot
  14. What a road trip took us over 6 hours to get there very disapointed with the 1st half but fair play to Dale they were very fit well organised didnt give us a second on the ball and passed & broke well. 2 poor goals to give away but we were not in the game 1st half Harding poor again Stephens had a shocker shame looks like he could be a player not Kelvin's finest hour but the hole team 1st half inept. Much better 2nd half but couldnt turn chances & half chances into goals & Dale were a threat on the break how much do we rely on Lallana he nearly changed the game looked a class above we need him fit for the rest of our games but he looked sharp. Very nice little ground Rochdale fans got behind there team at both ends good turn out by the Saints fans given that getting there was a nightmare just a shame we didnt have much to shout about. Have to win on Saturday COYS
  15. I am going gutted I missed the Orient game sounded ace on the Radio so I am really looking forward to this game any win would be ace a draw not the end of the world it would be nice to keep the winning run going. I am going for a nail bitting 2 1 COYS
  16. I think we are going to need at least 4 points over the next 2 games fingers crossed for a 3 1 Saints win against Orient & a 1 1 against Rochdale. I am going to Rochdale which is going to be a 3 day Camel ride on a Tuesday but can't make the Orient game have a good day to all going COYS
  17. 0 0 draw 3 players from each team sent off 2 or 3 niggly injuries (nothing to serious just enough to keep key players out for a month) We win 3 1 at Orient & all is well in my world
  18. Agreed he is quality I thought at the start of the season his legs had gone but boy was I wrong the man has been immense and has got better over the season. Forwards need to go into another post code & get directions to get round him he wins everything in the air love the way he gives strikers the brush off he is clever the way steps across players and the way he is so physical without giving away a foul. We have a quality pairing at centre back & Radhi deserves another year
  19. Bought 6 in the home end nearest as I could get to away fans I hope we can get in the away end but hey ho we are going. I would have thought Plymouth would want to sell as many tickets as poss I would think we could take 10,000 if it looks like we could go up with a win surely they could let us have a end & 1 side ? I would think there will be loads of us in the home end
  20. Good win good performance we have won a game in hand get in. Hope Lallana is ok we are not the same side without him fingers crossed he is back for our next game & good luck to Dale Stephens Jaidi was immense again I thought he was finished start of the season but he is getting better & better a giant at the back Lambert was quality his touch & wieght of pass sublime Lallana is the best player in this league by miles. This win should put the pressure on Udders we still have 2 games in hand & need 2 points to catch them COYS
  21. Great fight back thought we played well first 20 mins but not for the first time if we dont score when on top we lose momentum we didnt deserve to be 2 down but at that score with 28 mins to go I couldnt see us winning. Fair play to NA he got the subs right Forte took his 1st goal well then there seemed to be a spark we knew we could get something from the game & the Dons started to panic the crowd got right behind the team Forte right place to tap in & a very good finish from Barny. I thought Lambo did well an assist for two of our goals great come back great game cant wait for Tuesday
  22. Good read great day out very pleased Marcus had his day in the sunshine watching the mighty Saints lift a trophy fair play to KD
  23. I went last season rubbish ground rubbish view could not see anything when the play is up the far end crap atmosphere open to the elements but it is going to be a really important game so is a must attend event. There was a big away following last season so I guess we will sell out fast but the sooner they are in there new ground the better as the withdean is pants
  24. I would take issue with Harding & Hammond being in your list for player of the year I thought Harding was ace last season but this season for me he has been the week link I have seen him have several poor games this season. Hammond whilst you can't complain about his commitment I dont think he would be in the side week in week out if Morgan was fit he makes to many sideways & backward passes a decent player that gives 100% but not enough quality for player of the season. I know he has been out injured a fair bit this season but Lallana is our best player havent we missed him when he was out he makes us tick & is the most creative player we have so for me it is betwen him our best player & Fonte our most consistent he has been class at the back Mr reliable he just edges it from Lallana due to games played
  25. I was at the Walsall & Charlton games & I agree with you whilst we were the better side in both games we did not do enough to win I can't say we were unlucky in either game Walsall defended very well we didnt create enough quality chances & Charlton we bossed the game until we scored then had a wobble Charlton just about deserved there point. In fact I havent seen us play really well for several games yes we have been the better team yes we have got in the main the results we need it would be nice to see us play well & win well but I would more than settle for the right results & points. We are where we are this is the critical time in the season it is in our hands & we have get promoted for Brighton have top spot in the bag we are & should be favorites for 2nd
