My ESP skills failed to account for a blind referee!!

Ross Stewart will score on a Scienza assist before 15 mins are up. Mark my words!!

really hard to manage this game. Wrexham is genuine 6-pointer... and follows just 3 days later.At least Downes will be fresh for that game. But others will involve some careful decision making. I wouldn't be surprised to see Ross and Scienza held to start at Wrexham. They could be on the bench for Arsenal, but I think Eckart will do a little holding back... Here are my estimates: - odds of beating Arsenal with full team: 15% - odds of beathing Arsenal with slightly less than full team: 10% - odds of playoff place if we beat wrexham: 75% - odds of playoff place if we lose to wrexham: 50% If we get a playoff place, our chance of promotion a good 40-50% If we beat Arsenal, our chance of winning the FA cup <25%. Value of FA Cup vs Premier League. Financially nothing, emotionally maybe better... But all in all, a smart strategy is to aim for near maximum team power on Tues not Saturday.

Best parts for me: Azaz class... he just continues to get better... Larin looks sharp and hungry, signs that Fellows is coming back to better form... and Edozie! wow... Oh, guess I'll take Charles' wonder-strike too. If the word languid was invented for anyone, it's Charles.

It is just exhilarating watching this game. Here's my takeaway. Even missing our two best players, we're a better team than Coventry. Whisper it with joy: Premier League, here we come!

V disappointing half. the worst part was Scienza's injury. I don't think we'll see him for at least a couple weeks. Tonight, I'm going for a turnaround. 1-3 with goals from Azaz, Larin and <drum roll> Tom Fellows. And yes, I did grow up reading roy of the rovers comics.....

Ah, cancel that... it's a deprioritized, but it's there.

I thought this was supposed to be on Sky...? It's not showing up on my feed.

Saints 1-1 Charlton - Match Thread
NewYorkSaint replied to Golac's Cunning Stunts's topic in The Saints
Huge difference in quality between the teams... And we have a powerful bench a-waiting. Football can always break your heart w a bad run of the ball... but we really deserve this one. I'd love to see Larin get another. -
EFL to vote on extending the Championship playoffs
NewYorkSaint replied to badgerx16's topic in The Saints
I kinda like it. gives 3 and 4 a significant advantage over 5-8, which they prob deserve. 5 and 6 still get the benefit of playing at home... I remember thinking while at Wembley on that magic day that the playoff winner had a far BETTER season than those automatically promoted.... More broadly, it's good to give more clubs more to play for for longer into the season. If it were just top 3, hope dies early for many. But this is quite a clever system, giving graduated advantage the higher you place.... but still giving hope to a lot of clubs. In fact most clubs for most of the season can have a pathway to finishing at least 8th. So yeah... I'd vote for this. -
Thank you, universe.
-
Trying to imagine if there's ANY way back here. Archer and Jander off for Stewart and Wood. One goal back and then Leicester manage to do their usual and pick up a red card..... C'mon universe. Give us something?!!
-
incredible how a single 3-second moment completely changes the narrative of the entire game... and maybe the season. Oh Cyle... we are so happy you've joined us.
-
Really hope Downes is OK... He's been such an important player last few games.
-
I expected him just to be tall, strong header of the ball, but the highlights reel shows a lot more...
