Promotion or not, it's been a good season IMO, and hopefully we can top it next season.

 

it's been the best season I've had for a long time, beats the playoff season too IMO.

 

pompey in the cup, and a great day at wembley with a bit of silverware at the end of it.

 

...and we still have something to play for in the league.

Once upon a time....

 

Watching the PL on TV they used to say "Saints have not won a game after conceding first for 997 years" or close to it.... and today we conced first and win 1-5

 

When was the last time we had 3 games that we scored 5 goals in?

By my maths, since October (after we had taken 9 points from 10 games) we have taken 64 points from 31 games; that's 2.065 points per game.

 

Norwich are currently top with 86 points from 42 games; that's 2.048 points per game.

 

So we've been in title winning form since turning our terrible early season form around. Can't really ask any more than that.

Win the game in hand, add those 10 points back on and we aren't that far behind Charlton or Norwich for anyone out there within the club who may have commented recently on our being well of the pace of those two teams !! ;) :)

Exactly right and a point I've made every time someone has said there's no reason to expect us to get automatic promotion next season. There is every reason unless you belief our team will be weaker.

hadn't notice that - 2 points off Leeds who a few people on here were saying were miles ahead of us.

Over the season we are the second highest scorers, second best defence, second best goal difference and lost the second least amount. But too many ****in draws.

 

...and most of those draws came at the start of the season (six in Aug/Sept).

Posted
it is the next 5 games that count, not the last 14 and also how Huddersfiled perform that matter.

 

think you will find that its a total of them all

So whilst you are being smug/amusing (in your head), you dont think that without the likes of Wycombe, Exeter and Brentford, this tussle between us and Huddersfield would already be over - in our favour ?

I agree. If we had won every game we played we would be getting promoted, but we haven't and for that I blame AP. I'm sure Alpine would agree with me when I call for him to be sacked right now.

More truly pathetic sarcasm.

Every team will have results like that though, it happens. Burnley 1- 0 man utd 0, Tranemere 3 - 1 Norwich etc...

 

The fact is that if we now add our 10pts back on, we would be within 4 pts of 2nd (1 pt off if we win our game in hand) that tells me that we've not done much wrong at all.

 

Unfortunately the points deduction and the disjointed start left us in a position where we could barley have a slip up in the 2nd half of the season - which in the big picture, was always unlikely.

 

If we started with this team on even footing, i wouldn't bet against us getting 90+ points

Or you could say, if it weren't for the outstanding wins against Norwich, Leeds, Bristol Rovers and most crucially the demoralising thrashing of Huddersfield, the tussle between us and Huddersfiled would have been over a long time ago....in their favour

Then you could ask how the f**k can the same team that got the results you referred to, get the results that I referred to.........

Well what about Swindon and Leeds today not results that were expected

totally agree, would be very relaxed if we had won every game this season. Questions need asking.

Only people that don't understand football would NEED to ask that Q The rest know .. It's the nature of sport .. ALL sport
