I tell you what. It would be a fantastic feeling if we got promoted this season. Apart from Leeds and charlton, I think we could beat anyone. And we should beat most

 

I agree but we must start beating the top teams such as MK Dons and Oldham

Yep. For all the jumping for joy at the mo for the unspectacular thing of back to back league wins in league 1 with a multi million pound squad. I am keeping it under wraps fo the mo. As the next two league games will give an indication of the resolve and real quality of the team.

 

If we get say, only a point from the next 2 we can start to forget about promotion IMO

Agree - although a point at Oldham and a win v MK Dons at home would be a good return for me. Oldham will be a v v hard game, they're flying at the moment....

I shall be happier when we are off the bottom.

 

Happier still when out of the bottom 4.

 

Much happier when we get into the top half.

 

And THEN we can start looking at the playoffs.If I was looking now, I would be noticing that the top 5 ALL have promtion form , IE 2 points a game.That really can't last can it?

For me this season is all about rebuilding and setting the platform for a promotion next season. I have been a fan of AP since day 1 and though I don't believe every single decision he has made has necessarily been one I agree with there has NEVER been a Saints manager in over 40 years that I have always agreed with !

However, some of the things he has done and is doing especially quality signings have been very impressive.

So as optimistic as I always am I do believe a play off place is possible. However, more likely mid table or just above and those 10 points could well cost us a play off place. However, if they do then I'll not be upset as few could argue I believe that they weren't justified after the shambles of the Lowe regime and it was not that long enough I was sat here really concerned we might not have a team.

Precisely If we beat the Lower Teams we dont get relegated and to get to the play offs we have to beat the top teams.

 

 

We are about 15 points from the play offs at the moment if we are less than 10 points from the play offs at Christmas then anything can happen

Because the opposition won't want to lose?

 

Oldham (A)

Milton Keynes Dons (H)

Leyton Orient (A)

Brighton (H)

Norwich (H)

Hartlepool (A)

Wycombe (H)

Walsall (A)

Tranmere (H)

 

Norwich away will be a good test, but our squad is surely the best now in L1?

 

Even if we win 7 of our next 9 we have a good chance of PO

We could easily lose V Oldham, Dons and Norwich. The rest we should be winning to be honest.

this set of games will certainly need a squad (need the likes of Connolly & Holmes maybe even saga) to play their part.

at least we have that kind of talent to call on - I doubt if other sides in L1 (or CCC) can call on players like Melis, Connolly, Holmes, Saga, Perry, Thomas, Paterson or Gillet (& we still have Murty to come back)

I am very optimistic but im sure other clubs in the divisions could find a lot better than gillet, perry and paterson! I think that is going a little bit too far.

F*** THAT lets get out of the bottom 4 first.

 

IMHO, aiming for the TOP is positive thinking

 

IMHO, Aiming to just get out of the bottom four is LIMITING your goals, which is something that the LAST regime were very good at

Oh FFS,let's just get out of the bottom 4 first.

Great,fantastic we maybe on the up but let's just be a tad realistic.

Nothing wrong with setting you sights high but for christs sake can we temper it a bit.
