JustMike Posted 27 December, 2010 Posted 27 December, 2010 Remember it is a 3pm KO (assuming it doesnt have a touch of frost!)
Turkish Posted 27 December, 2010 Posted 27 December, 2010 an absolute must win game. They will be faigued after playing and losing on boxing day and are there for the taking. IN fact anything less than 9 points from our games over new year is faliure,
JustMike Posted 27 December, 2010 Author Posted 27 December, 2010 agree Turkish, we need to all the points we can get.
Kingsbridge Saint Posted 27 December, 2010 Posted 27 December, 2010 Absolutely no excuses. 3 points or I am ****ed off beyond measure. If they 'want it more than us' heads should roll.
Saint_Jonny Posted 27 December, 2010 Posted 27 December, 2010 Cant wait for this game! Being a Student in Huddersfield, and having gone to the rubbish game up there, I badly want us to win this for obvious reasons. Feeling a bit more confident as they lost yesterday, and this Saints team should beat anybody on its day. COYS!

Window Cleaner Posted 27 December, 2010 Posted 27 December, 2010 Read the report of the Huddersfield-Hartlepool game. Seems that they were stifled by a young on loan keeper from Blackburn, on form keepers do seem to be making it hard for everyone in this league.We'd have beaten Brentford easily if it wasn't for Lee.
AlfredKo Posted 27 December, 2010 Posted 27 December, 2010 As an overseas supporter, I am wondering is it a holiday tomorrow in the UK? Why the kick off is at 3pm?

Keepers are there to make saves, strikers are there to score goals, our combined £2m+ goal keeper and strikerforce did neither, Brentfords loanees and frees did both.
Window Cleaner Posted 27 December, 2010 Posted 27 December, 2010 As an overseas supporter, I am wondering is it a holiday tomorrow in the UK? Why the kick off is at 3pm? yes it is a holiday. Christmas Day and Boxing day lead to extra holiday days when they fall on Saturday or Sunday, this year it's a bumper 4 day bonanza.
Turkish Posted 27 December, 2010 Posted 27 December, 2010 As an overseas supporter, I am wondering is it a holiday tomorrow in the UK? Why the kick off is at 3pm? today and tomorrow are bank holidays as christmas day and boxing day fell on a weekend.
John B Posted 27 December, 2010 Posted 27 December, 2010 As an overseas supporter, I am wondering is it a holiday tomorrow in the UK? Why the kick off is at 3pm? Yes Public Holiday as Christmas Day was on Saturday and Boxing Day on Sunday
eurosaint Posted 27 December, 2010 Posted 27 December, 2010 One of the toilets in the Itchen is blocked ! Andy D'Urso has inspected it and the GAME IS OFF ! :)
John B Posted 27 December, 2010 Posted 27 December, 2010 Yes Public Holiday as Christmas Day was on Saturday and Boxing Day on Sunday Not often that three posters agree completely on a subject on this Forum
Thedelldays Posted 27 December, 2010 Posted 27 December, 2010 3pm kick off.. Was going to go thinking it was 7.45pm lol
AlfredKo Posted 27 December, 2010 Posted 27 December, 2010 Just for personal interest, was it still a public holiday last Saturday in the UK?
Window Cleaner Posted 27 December, 2010 Posted 27 December, 2010 Just for personal interest, was it still a public holiday last Saturday in the UK? If you mean that shops,businesses and administrative concerns were closed then yes it was.
for_heaven's_Saint Posted 27 December, 2010 Posted 27 December, 2010 We really should win our next 3 games, which should see us well into the playoff places.

Agree with that.. Even if we were very poor we still created chances.. Hit the woodwork twice Had a blatant penalty turned down And their keeper pulling off a couple of great saves Being poor and creating chances is. Good sign if there is one
itchen_dan Posted 27 December, 2010 Posted 27 December, 2010 http://www.saintsfc.co.uk/page/NewsDetail/0,,10280~2252202,00.html Good news! Still on! We desperately have to win this, no excuses. If we win, I feel we can easily go on a run and march up the table but a defeat could possibly see us hope for play offs at best. Believe! 2-0 win! COYS!

norwaysaint Posted 27 December, 2010 Posted 27 December, 2010 yes it is a holiday. Christmas Day and Boxing day lead to extra holiday days when they fall on Saturday or Sunday, this year it's a bumper 4 day bonanza. I miss that holiday policy. Over here, if a national holiday falls on a weekend, you don't get the extra day.
Window Cleaner Posted 27 December, 2010 Posted 27 December, 2010 I miss that holiday policy. Over here, if a national holiday falls on a weekend, you don't get the extra day. but they don't get all that many public holidays compared to many countries.No national day, not many religious days,so you can't really complain if their bank holidays don't get docked for week-ends.
fanimal Posted 27 December, 2010 Posted 27 December, 2010 If he is fit, this will be Chaplows last game unless we sign him up quickly or can we loan him again to the end of the season?
Window Cleaner Posted 27 December, 2010 Posted 27 December, 2010 If he is fit, this will be Chaplows last game unless we sign him up quickly or can we loan him again to the end of the season? aren't we supposed to be buying him for £50K??
Michelle Posted 27 December, 2010 Posted 27 December, 2010 Good news! Still on! We were told that about Charlton on Friday too...
the wedge Posted 27 December, 2010 Posted 27 December, 2010 Anyone know if the ticket office will be open during the day tomorrow? Hoping to take the old man to his first St Mary's game.
itchen_dan Posted 27 December, 2010 Posted 27 December, 2010 Just looking around, we should win this if their management team's research is as poor as their website team's! http://www.htafc.com/page/NewsDetail/0,,10312~2252339,00.html? Town's next game of their festive period sees them make the long trip south to face Southampton on Tuesday night; kick off 7.45pm The Hampshire side have not won at home since the start of November and currently sit 11th in the League. On that day they comprehensively defeated Dagenham and Redbridge courtesy of goals from Lee Barnard, Rui Fonte, and a brace from young Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain. Southampton have an abundance of top quality players, however, Dean Hammond is a player that sometimes gets over looked. He can be instrumental from the centre of the park and if Town can stop him playing then they may cut of one of the Saints main creative routes. They also think that we will play without Fonte or Barnard in their predicted XI.
trousers Posted 27 December, 2010 Posted 27 December, 2010 Not often that three posters agree completely on a subject on this Forum Yes. All wrong at the same time. ;-)
Window Cleaner Posted 27 December, 2010 Posted 27 December, 2010 Any idea of attendance so far ? as we haven't had a "hurry up and get your tickets" announcement from the OS I'd guess sales aren't too bad.People must be pretty bored with hanging about the house by now so I expect we'll get a bit of a bumper crowd.Perhaps 23K.
Saint Garrett Posted 27 December, 2010 Posted 27 December, 2010 I think its being edited, as that page is now not working.
Nexstar Posted 27 December, 2010 Posted 27 December, 2010 Should be a cracking game as I think we'll really come out the traps. 3-0, Lambert and 2 for Barnard
Window Cleaner Posted 27 December, 2010 Posted 27 December, 2010 Should be a cracking game as I think we'll really come out the traps. 3-0, Lambert and 2 for Barnard I shall be surprised if Barnard gets any goals at all, or anywhere near the pitch for that matter.
Appy Posted 27 December, 2010 Posted 27 December, 2010 I shall be surprised if Barnard gets any goals at all, or anywhere near the pitch for that matter. Why?
sfc4prem Posted 27 December, 2010 Posted 27 December, 2010 I'm well up for this! Come on Saints, don't let me down like you always do!!
Bailey Posted 27 December, 2010 Posted 27 December, 2010 A repeat performance of this fixture last season would be perfect, but in reality it'll be a very tricky game. Hopefully the players are raring to go after the enforced break due to the weather, but we must be wary of a Huddersfield backlash after their home defeat to Hartlepool on Boxing Day. I'm going go for a narrow 2-1 win to Saints, with Lambert rediscovering some form and notching twice.
saintscottofthenortham Posted 27 December, 2010 Posted 27 December, 2010 I shall be surprised if Barnard gets any goals at all, or anywhere near the pitch for that matter. He had more surgery on his hand last week but he could well play.

IN fact anything less than 9 points from our games over new year is faliure, Agree - anything less than 9 points from the Huddersfield game will been seen as relegation form.... ;-)
captainchris Posted 27 December, 2010 Posted 27 December, 2010 Has anyone heard what the team would have been at Charlton?
hypochondriac Posted 27 December, 2010 Posted 27 December, 2010 Was slagging off Adkins the other day with a group of mates and realised that he was sat behind us in Costa Coffee. Woops! Anyway this one is really important. Win it and our season is back on track. Lose and it is major crisis time.

hypochondriac Posted 28 December, 2010 Posted 28 December, 2010 That's f*cking hilarious mate!!! Bet you guys were laughing all the way home!!! Haha! Was very amusing. Not sure if he heard but he was looking at us . Gobern was sat at a table opposite him. When Adkins left I said I bet he was relieved, it must be like having your school teacher sat opposite you! Barnard went up to the unhealthy food court bit in West Quay but I didn't hang around to see if he sampled anything. Good times.
Dark Munster Posted 28 December, 2010 Posted 28 December, 2010 Was slagging off Adkins the other day with a group of mates and realised that he was sat behind us in Costa Coffee. Woops! Anyway this one is really important. Win it and our season is back on track. Lose and it is major crisis time. So what made you realise he was behind you? Was it when he slapped you across your head?
Jimmy_D Posted 28 December, 2010 Posted 28 December, 2010 Right, The Ashes has put me in a brilliant mood, well up for this game now... A win today and I reckon we'll be back in the playoff positions and ready to push on in the new year
Master Bates Posted 28 December, 2010 Posted 28 December, 2010 Game off, there's a small patch of frost on the centre circle which may harm the ball.
Thedelldays Posted 28 December, 2010 Posted 28 December, 2010 Was slagging off Adkins the other day with a group of mates and realised that he was sat behind us in Costa Coffee. Woops! Anyway this one is really important. Win it and our season is back on track. Lose and it is major crisis time. why didnt you tell him what you tell us lot..? im sure he would have listened
alpine_saint Posted 28 December, 2010 Posted 28 December, 2010 Saints dont do Xmas holiday wins. I expect us to get thumped.
