As has already been said, we're bound to fall flat on our arses at some point and lose to a sh1t team. But I just can't see it happening tomorrow - we look too strong at the moment. At no point during the MK game did I lose confidence that we would win - even just after their free kick went in.

I'd love to find some odds for us winning ten league games in a row. Norwich at home will be tough but we have a good run coming up.

Won't affect those of us coming into Waterloo tho - Northern line up to Tottenham Court Road & then Central to Leyton.

 

May I suggest taking the Waterloo and City line to Bank then Central line to Leyton from there? Should gain you approximately 8 minutes more Drinking time!

we should expect to win...we should go into every game in the frame of mind that we are winners...and dropping points is NOT ok..

 

pardew agrees....about time ALL the fans did

Listening to the local Southend commentary on their game tonight on SaintsPlayer. Apparently some of their fans will be out with the buckets at Orient tomorrow - 'Save Our Shrimpers'.

HELP PLEASE;

 

Sods law dictates that I'm stuck on a booth at the Fort Lauderdale Boat Show until Tuesday! - Now, I know a lot of you will have no sympathy for my situation, but apart from registering for the feed through the OS does anyone else know how I can tune in and play out loud the game during the show? I'm not a tight ass but a lot of you US based Saints must know of a shady sight I can tune into tomorrow??........Please!!

Hmmm,seeing as we always buckle under the pressure when we take a big away following,and theres too much over-confidence in the fact we should win,i'll go for a 2-2 draw. Always a pessimist with away games as its been nearly 10 years to the day since I last saw us win one in the league,my luck really is that bad.

How twists of fate beset us. I live just across the water from Leyton but have to be in Southampton for family reasons this weekend. This was THE London game I really wanted to be at this season. Some things just aren't fair.

1-3 to the boys in red and white. Have a good one all those going and hopefully the capital will be witness to a south coast celebration to beat any east end knees-up.

Radio Solent and a tinny or two for me on the sofa I guess.

I completely agree Delldays, but you have to agree with me as well - it's hard to get rid of that worried feeling that hides in your gut, telling you not to get your hopes up. :(

Very very hungover and lacking sleep. And have to be at Soton Central within the hour, more than likely with a box of lager to get me going

Its almost a shame that Saints will win this game, because that Barry Hearne has always seemed to be such a nice man. I wonder if Steve Davis is still the main striker.

no it is not hard..

 

for all those people telling me to stop being unrealistic you have OUR OWN MANAGER telling us that we should be winners as the players are paid to win every game..

 

I know we will lose a few more this season..and if we lose at home to any team, or away to say Brighton, I will not be happy...pardew will not be happy nor will he find it acceptable..BUT the usual gang of trend setters on here will have a right go at me for being unrealistic etc etc etc...

 

the players are acting like we should win every game...about time the fans lost this AWFUL 'average' mentality that so many have and expect nothing but wins week in week out

Just got up, my train leaves in 30mins. Why am I this excited about Leyton Orient away in League 1?

 

Should be a great day out, just hope the team perform like they have been in the last few games. COYR!

Yes I'm sure the football league is scouring SWF with a fine toothcomb.

Cries of "typical Saints" will reverberate through this messageboard if we get anything but a win, but IMO that'd be an unfair assessment of how far we've come. This is the new team, and if recent results are to be believed we've turned the corner and are bringing the good times back to Southampton.

 

I truly think we have what it takes to win today. In terms of the League Table disregarding the points deduction, we're better in every way than Orient. If we truly have aspirations to plug the gap on the top 6, we NEED to win these sorts of games. Our recent run will count for nought if we can't sustain it over a long period of time.

 

We will win today, in my mind. We're playing like the best team in the league, and I believe that we may possibly be that good. I'm hoping Hammond can shake the knock, Connolly too, but I still think we'll go on to win this.

 

Another 3-1 would be lovely. (Though I can envisage us keeping a clean sheet.) A draw is unacceptable today - unless we pull back from 3-0 down.

i am off to the pub now to follow todays football proceedings. I am hoping for Blackburn, Arsenal and Saints victories. I am expecting a narrow saints win. It feels so good to be 'expecting' wins now, and long may it continue. 1-2 saints

Nail on the head TDD, losing today would be unacceptable, we know what this side is capable of, so I EXPECT a win by at least 2 clear goals.

COYR!

Assuming it will be the blue, Orient play in Red.

 

Just leaving now. COYR. Let's have a good day.

Thanks. Also about to leave. Should be a great day. COYR (or should that be COYB)

Then we should contribute. I like Southend. It would be tragic if they folded. (Not that a few quid will make much difference, but it does help morale. It did when we were in the same situation.)

Win or lose this is going to be a great day out, at least I can expect the team to make an effort - over the past few seasons I've always been disappointed with the lack of passion, desire to win games.......................

 

Leaving in the next 30 mins to have time for a few beers before the game.

 

2 - 1 to Saints

 

COYS!!!

4-0 Saints, Lambert to score 1st (155/1) or

 

Scott McGleish to score 1st/Saints win 3-1 (170/1)

 

En-route to London. Noticed 1 poor lad in his Saints shirt stood waiting on Platform 1 @ Central (with his bag of beers) as the London train left from Platform 2. Hope he was waiting for another train/wasn't going to the game. Feel bad for him otherwise.

Leaving shortly, the most I have looked forward to an away game for a long time. Probably since the Pride Park play-off game.

 

COYR!!!

 

Which...despite the penalty shoot out result was the best game I have been to in several years to be honest!

I reckon it will be a tough game today, I know alot of us are expecting a big win and that is what worries me a little. I dont think its going to be a straight forward easy win. I just hope the squad dont become complacent because of recent results. That said we SHOULD beat them comfortably, my heart says a Saints win. My head says you know what Saints are like. So I just hope my hear is right and we are celebrating another 3 points come 5pm this evening.

Ironically, I'd usually agree with you, but my head is starting to tell me Saints under Pardew will win most games now. Nice to have head and heart in alignment for a change! :)

so we should..we should be going into nearly every game in this league like we are going to win and think of nothing else...sick and tired of being called unrealistic or what ever...the players are now winners..time for the fans to act like it for once

"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.

 

 

More likely to work against us with him trying desperately to show he ISN'T biased.

 

As I only have one post left today, may I take this opportunity of congratulating Nigel Pearson in leading his team to the top of the Championship!

Good points Delldays, why not assume we're going to win? Be arrogant and tough, chances are you'll get what you want.

 

Unfortunately have to go to bed now (Have given up Bury for Brisbane), make sure you guys get us a result!
