Thedelldays Posted 29 October, 2009 Posted 29 October, 2009 Let's get this started I fully expect saints to win.... Not because we 'should beat them for being saints and them being orient" I fully expect to win as we are right on form and seem to be taking no prisoners now a draw would not be the end of the world and would be ok. But right now I expect us to win this one. 2-0 to Saints. Lallana and trotman
saint_bert Posted 29 October, 2009 Posted 29 October, 2009 Lambert (2) and Papa to get back in the groove in a 3-0 win to take us out of the relegation zone. In my opinion
trousers Posted 29 October, 2009 Posted 29 October, 2009 3-1 to Saints. Hammond, Lambert and Connelly. Obviously.
Thedelldays Posted 29 October, 2009 Author Posted 29 October, 2009 3-1 to Saints. Hammond, Lambert and Connelly. Obviously. I wonder what the odds are for that to happen again?
Saintandy666 Posted 29 October, 2009 Posted 29 October, 2009 I wonder what the odds are for that to happen again? Could probably win quite a bit if it did. I'm really looking forward to this match, I just have a vibe at the moment, and I haven't had it since 2006(I think that was the year) when we were in the playoffs. I think we can win this, just hope our october form can continue on into november because we have a bit of a break after this I believe(anyone know why?). We can't let momentum break down during this break or we are back to square one.
stkev7 Posted 29 October, 2009 Posted 29 October, 2009 1-0 Saints with Connolly grabbing an 87th minute winner. Can't wait for this, my weekend starts tomorrow morning at 10am at my local Wetherspoons then into London.
Joesaint Posted 29 October, 2009 Posted 29 October, 2009 Mellis could score! 4-0 saints as if we get on top early and score I feel it could be a great game I'd be happy with any score though.
bigchrisy Posted 29 October, 2009 Posted 29 October, 2009 3-1 for me Lambert 2 and jaidi Can't wait for this one C
gaz Posted 29 October, 2009 Posted 29 October, 2009 Im going for 1-1, small blip in form but still picking up points. Much rather it be 3-1 again though.
Wadge Posted 29 October, 2009 Posted 29 October, 2009 I have Saints 4-0 with Trottman to open the scoring. Be nice if they could sort that out for me.
Sold To The Man @ The Bar Posted 29 October, 2009 Posted 29 October, 2009 A full spanking is due, 5 - 1 it will feel like a home game. COYR
ottery st mary Posted 29 October, 2009 Posted 29 October, 2009 Saints to win 3-0..as i slowly climb the prediction league....hopefully. Lallana, Wotton (30 yd screamer) and Lambert. COYRS 3 points please.
sperm_john Posted 29 October, 2009 Posted 29 October, 2009 i think we will have a blip, traditional saints style, in a game we should win ...after all, we are used to losing when we are spose to win, and winning when we are spose to lose, its what saints do so well, so im gonna put us down for a draw i think .. 1 - 1 or 2 - 2 with schneiderlin to score, so get your money on him!
wightman35 Posted 29 October, 2009 Posted 29 October, 2009 I am not allowed to predict a win/score as when I did last year it went horribly wrong and we lost. :mad: This season, when I posted that I felt POSITIVE, however, we have won. So, this week, I am feeling positive! :D:D:D
RedAndWhite91 Posted 29 October, 2009 Posted 29 October, 2009 Orient's last six League games: W L W L W L It's hard to predict, I reckon we will win, but it's hard to say by how many. 2-1 perhaps.
Saints Warrior Posted 29 October, 2009 Posted 29 October, 2009 Orient 2 Saints 5, Big Saints following Big result. Cant wait to go up there.
Iowsaintsfan Posted 30 October, 2009 Posted 30 October, 2009 Cant wait for this, been looking forward to going up there all week! What pub is everyone going to pre-match?
Winchester_Saint Posted 30 October, 2009 Posted 30 October, 2009 So excited about this game and the whole day out to be fair! Let's sing so loud that their shabby ground falls apart! It's gotta be 3-1, hasn't it?! Lambert (2) and Lallana
Genk Posted 30 October, 2009 Posted 30 October, 2009 If Hammond plays 3-1 Saints If Hammond doesn't play 2-1 Orient I think he is such a key player for us
ericofarabia Posted 30 October, 2009 Posted 30 October, 2009 I wonder what the odds are for that to happen again? They should be very high with both Connolly and Hammond only rated 50/50 to play :cool: Also the way we are playing ... ONLY 3-1 .....fat chance !!!!
chocco boxo Posted 30 October, 2009 Posted 30 October, 2009 This is a home match really!!! I can see Papa fluking a last minute leveller. I will be happy with a draw as a loss would be a real body blow. Best get your bets on in a bookies as I do not think the home end sorry away end has betting facilities?
yorkie Posted 30 October, 2009 Posted 30 October, 2009 We all have great expectations tomorrow - and the players must not feel under any pressure. In days gone by expectations killed our team's ability to continue with good form. I somehow get the feeling that the current team concentrate on doing their job - rather than listen to the crowd and what the press say - I just hope they listen to Pardew and the changed tactics to win at Brisbane Road? I believe they ned to just play their way and dominate the game from the start. Sure Orient will try to throw everyhting but the kitchen sink at us in the first 10-minutes - shock horror we should be 2-up by then! Can't make tomorrow - but good luck to all those 3000+ fans making it a day out to remember. Heart says another win - but common sense says we are due to be knocked off our perch! He stands at nearly six foot three...
Sidney Fudpucker the 3rd Posted 30 October, 2009 Posted 30 October, 2009 If Jamie Scowcroft is fit he's bound to score for them. He always scores against us, and on accasion more than one
Saint Fan CaM Posted 30 October, 2009 Posted 30 October, 2009 Mmm, think we are due to lose as I didn't start the match build-up thread! Seriously though, this is a tough one to call as we may be missing a couple of key players and in particular Hammond. Having said that if the 3000 Saints supporters don't intimidate the locals I will be surprised and for that reason I will say Orient 1 Saints 2. COYS!
labibs Posted 30 October, 2009 Posted 30 October, 2009 Really looking forward to the game tmw, my first away match of the season. I always get worried when Saints are on a good run and expected to win, that's inevitably when we throw it away and put in a stinking performance. We just look to be a bit tougher so far this season. I'm going for a 2-1 win, Papa and Jaidi
oldskoolsi Posted 30 October, 2009 Posted 30 October, 2009 On the grounds that it's impossible for me to see a saints away win and enjoy more than 2 beers. I'm going for a 1-1 draw and I'll see you in the pub from 11.00.
sotonjoe Posted 30 October, 2009 Posted 30 October, 2009 I'm a bit worried about missing Hammond to be honest. I hadn't realised he was injured actually, but I should have realised after seeing him doing recuperation work in the pool with Murty and Connolly the other day.
northam soul Posted 30 October, 2009 Posted 30 October, 2009 9.38am train from parkway straight to the hole in the wall and then on from there. Bring it on people.
saint boggy Posted 30 October, 2009 Posted 30 October, 2009 9.38am train from parkway straight to the hole in the wall and then on from there. Bring it on people. ditto
ecuk268 Posted 30 October, 2009 Posted 30 October, 2009 You can get 3300 -1 on another 3-1 win with the same scorers in the same order. Worth a tenner??
Saint_clark Posted 30 October, 2009 Posted 30 October, 2009 You can get 3300 -1 on another 3-1 win with the same scorers in the same order. Worth a tenner?? Depends on the team, can you place that sort of bet at the bookies in the ground? (If there even is one).
St Marco Posted 30 October, 2009 Posted 30 October, 2009 If we do win then we would equal the clubs consecutive away wins record set in 1991/2 And i think 6 wins in a row in all comps would also be a club record but am not 100% sure.
sotonjoe Posted 30 October, 2009 Posted 30 October, 2009 You can get 3300 -1 on another 3-1 win with the same scorers in the same order. Worth a tenner?? not with hammond a doubt to play
onthemarch Posted 30 October, 2009 Posted 30 October, 2009 Hi there - this is a bit random but very Orient related. A few weeks ago some of my mates went to the bookies whilst I was in the pub toilet and placed a seven man accumulator - £5 each, they all picked a team. It came in and they pocketed over £200 each - leaving me numb at missing out. We are all going to the game tomorrow but they won't let me join the accumulator as they feel I may upset the karma of the magic 7. Do a few fellow saints wish to join me in joining a breakaway super 7 - we all pick a team and put a fiver in - and share the winnings at full time.
Saint_Jonny Posted 30 October, 2009 Posted 30 October, 2009 We could be out of the red zone on goal difference tomorrow if we win. Orient 1 Saints 3, its just got to be! COYR
for_heaven's_Saint Posted 30 October, 2009 Posted 30 October, 2009 Just seen this: Mr. James Linington from the Isle of Wight takes charge of Saturday's game. Now is it just me or does that seem a little odd? Surely if he's from IOW he must be either a Saints fan or a skate?!

St Lej Posted 30 October, 2009 Posted 30 October, 2009 Just seen this: Now is it just me or does that seem a little odd? Surely if he's from IOW he must be either a Saints fan or a skate?! That's a very strange choice of official for this game, as rumour has it he has a soft spot for saints! I'm pretty sure he came on as substitute ref when we played cardiff at home in 06/07, and allowed a dubious goal of theirs to stand. Hopefully he will be impartial (as he should be) but something tells me he will go the other way, and give plenty of decisions to Orient just so that people don't pinpoint his location as to reasons why we would get any favourable decision. This was very much the feeling amongst us when he refereed the cardiff game towards the end. Also loves to get his cards out at every opportunity to show who's in charge. Was the ref when swansea had 3 sent off earlier on this season in the carling cup. This news doesn't fill me with much confidence to be honest. Fairly arrogant guy too from what i've heard, but then what ref's arent?
Draino76 Posted 30 October, 2009 Posted 30 October, 2009 Just seen this: Now is it just me or does that seem a little odd? Surely if he's from IOW he must be either a Saints fan or a skate?! I know the family. I kid you not, they are big Saints fans!!!!111
topsteward Posted 30 October, 2009 Posted 30 October, 2009 http://www.tfl.gov.uk/tfl/livetravelnews/realtime/by-date.aspx?offset=weekend some tube lines closed sat into waterloo
VectisSaint Posted 30 October, 2009 Posted 30 October, 2009 . Also loves to get his cards out at every opportunity Apart from the Swansea game, he seems to be very low on yellow card rate, averages about 2 per game according to soccerbase. Comes from Newport, so difficult to say if he is more likely to be Saints or Skates, if he was from Ryde then I would be more worried.
saints_is_the_south Posted 30 October, 2009 Posted 30 October, 2009 http://www.tfl.gov.uk/tfl/livetravelnews/realtime/by-date.aspx?offset=weekend some tube lines closed sat into waterloo Won't affect those of us coming into Waterloo tho - Northern line up to Tottenham Court Road & then Central to Leyton.
RedAndWhite91 Posted 30 October, 2009 Posted 30 October, 2009 http://www.refworld.com/referee/179/1 "I was released from a club at the age of 15 because I was not strong enough to play in adult football and at the level I intended to play at." I hope he isn't one of these referees who 'almost made it but didn't' and so strut around the field like a little Hitler showing their authority because they are bitter about not making it. I also hope the fact he has a soft spot for Saints means he'll be biased in our favour. I know it's cheating but sod it, think of all the sh!te refs and bad luck we have had recently.

I just remember that game and another harsh red card he gave last season at Dagenham or somewhere that's all. Hopefully those were one offs!
beatlesaint Posted 30 October, 2009 Posted 30 October, 2009 I understood, many years ago now, that the ref had to live at least 60 miles away from the town/city that either of the teams he was officiating came from. Unless my geography is all to pot that doesn't apply in this case by a long stretch. So was that rule scrapped ? Will we see the Liverpool/Everton derbies ref'd by a Scouser or a Utd/City one ref'd by a Manc ? I think not.
