About as common as a Saints win.

Next 25 minutes is defining. We have to score or we lose IMO

Mentally we are fragile.

Looks ominous.

Silva must have put a rocket up them. MP probably did nothing.

Swans 1 up against the Geordies !

Agreed. We need a third to throttle off this game.

Everyone could see this coming...we cannot kill off games.

FFS here we go 1-2

We are playing with fire.

We do not need to sit back ffs.

...and at least three goals up!

I agree, but let's not count our chickens yet.

Corrected, JWP 2-0.

Yes, Long 2-0

We have to turn this dominance into goals.

Lets hope we don't sit back and try and defend the lead.

This game is the KEY game to our future. Win and we may well finish 17th or better. Lose and we are heading down.

A very good read indeed. It is harder for a club like Saints to stay in the Premier League than many appreciate. Looks like we lost our way a bit and some complacency that was setting in a few years ago, although admittedly not obviously apparent to most supporters.

Sounds more like the 'yoyo' strategy.

Dalek was right !

As Nordic Saint just said, the owner needs to sack Reed and Ralph before he sacks the manager.

I think he fell down a rabbit hole after running across the New Forest.

Can this tie machine take us back to the Spring of 2004 and take the advice of Dalek.

Post of the week. The mistakes have been made by the board over a number of years. We have been on a downward trend that has recently accelerated. We may just escape relegation (17th, yes please!), we may well go down. But, let's not dodge the issue by making the manager a scapegoat. The position we are in is due to complacency over a number of years. A failure to heed the warnings due to arrogance. The club has not learnt from 2004-05, they will have to learn again. Hopefully, we won't take our PL status for granted in the future.
