Pull yourselves together everyone. It hasn't happened yet.

However, being in the EL can only be good for RK's team strengthening plans -and his ongoing contractual negotiations.

Manure win the FA Cup, Saints go straight into group stages and eventually beat Manure in the final, when LVG, still hanging on to his job, sucks his lemons. Sorted.

Thanks, should have known (Boro)

Both teams playing in red and white stripes at home. Which strip, I wonder, would look the coolest?

Don't pour water on Napalm's opinions.

Good summary. I guess we might know more when we play Borough.

...and Saints Web warriors

Did Gaston really score five goals in twelve Championship starts? What did we do wrong?

What a shame that a great picture of Kat with past Saints promotion era managers enjoying Kelvin's ten year celebration should descend to nasty spats between sad warriors.

Would you have preferred it that Poch proved to be a failure, we were relegated in his first year here and he was sacked, rather than that he left as a successful Saints manager?

We have of course been 2nd in the old Division, I believe. Does anyone have the team sheet of the last fixture then? It would be interesting to compare them with today's heroes.

They were there and Mane milked adulation from the Itchen corner after he scored. He loved it.

Why would any ambitious player on the fringes of the England team intentionally not put everything into playing his best whichever team he might be playing in?

I would like Wednesday to be promoted. I'm not sure why, probably just sentimental reasons. The town has been devastated from careless political decisions that have destroyed it's industries over the years and also Sheffield Wednesday's had a hard time. The Premier League should have representation from a large city like Sheffield - it's Wednesday's turn.

I'm always slightly anxious when we are strong favourites. Consistent as our successful surges this half year have been, we can unexpectedly slip up when not expected to. RK is right, concentrate on the moment. Concentrate on beating Palace to guarantee 7th place, and by then what will be will have happened. Celebrate after the match, not before. There is work to be done. We need to hit Palace hard and fast from the start, and not let up. No lack of concentration at any time because Wickham, Gayle and Puncheon can punish mistakes. COYR

We've certainly come a long way since the first match of the season when Everton walked through us. Who would have thought that Everton were to become one of the season's failures. May the trajectory continue.

The only way it might make sense would be if the line could be connected to a Park and Ride somewhere near Eastleigh, such as in the old railway works, perhaps. Shuttle services could link to the Central station at non match days. Otherwise since it doesn't link directly with Central Station there wouldn't be much point.

Did I really dream that?

Meltdown

Real Ale in the concourses because Saints Ale is p*** otherwise bring back separate coffee stalls because it takes too long queuing for one

It was three years of pain that still hurts. Incidentally hope began for me when Kelvin rejected a Premiership football contract to stay with Saints, even though players weren't getting paid at the time, before Marcus saved us. Well done Kelv. You deserve a testimonial.

Today it is, if points are considered. Mind, it hopefully will be different come Sunday.

No way! This is a must win and no messing about with a winning settled side should be considered. Kelvin's testimonial is the best time to bring on our youngsters for some of the match, because they are our future. But not against Palarse who will be fielding players keen to prove their Cup final credentials.

Highly optimistic
