Saint_clark Posted 16 March, 2011 Posted 16 March, 2011 Was sure i'd seen one of these already, but couldn't find it anywhere. Nevermind. Win this and it'll be 4 on the bounce, and considering what Posh did to them yesterday no reason why we can't follow suit. Would be nice if we'd signed a CM by this game as well. I'm gonna go for a 3-0 win, Barnard, Lambert and Chamberlain.
Golden Balls Posted 16 March, 2011 Posted 16 March, 2011 They are on shocking form. That usually means we'll be charitable
Thedelldays Posted 16 March, 2011 Posted 16 March, 2011 we could be 8 points from 2nd at the start of this game (inc this game having 4 games in hand)
jasoneuelllfanclub Posted 16 March, 2011 Posted 16 March, 2011 does anyone know of any pubs in fareham that screen saints games?
The Godfather Posted 16 March, 2011 Posted 16 March, 2011 does anyone know of any pubs in fareham that screen saints games? None as far as I know. I live in gosport and with the Ireland/England rugby and a premiership game on we won't get a look in.
for_heaven's_Saint Posted 16 March, 2011 Posted 16 March, 2011 It's so frustrating that Peterborough and Huddersfield just keep on winning. We have to win this one just to stay in touch.
The Godfather Posted 16 March, 2011 Posted 16 March, 2011 It's so frustrating that Peterborough and Huddersfield just keep on winning. We have to win this one just to stay in touch. The Huddersfield result last night was more annoying with their last minute winner, we've just got to go out and do the business (know doubt we're make it hard for ouselves as usual). I bet Sheffield Wednesday don't play crap against us!!
SuperSAINT Posted 16 March, 2011 Posted 16 March, 2011 They've been very poor. We've been very good. But it's on TV... How many times have we been on TV this season? I can remember the Plymouth loss, and the Peterborough draw. Both less than stellar experiences.
doddisalegend Posted 16 March, 2011 Posted 16 March, 2011 I give up predicting these things on paper it looks like points in the bag but then I never saw us losing to Walsall or Brentford. When I think it's going to be tough we normally win. So on that note I'm half expecting us to lose it 1-0. Got keep winning really just to keep the two in front looking over their shoulders. Still it will be nice to get back down to SMS after missing Yeovil with a bad back.

Kingsbridge Saint Posted 16 March, 2011 Posted 16 March, 2011 Must win game. Obviously. Right now there is absolutely no margin for error.
Saint_John Posted 16 March, 2011 Posted 16 March, 2011 Sorry to worry everyone but the ref is a Darren Deadman a Civil Servant from PETERBOROUGH !?! 3 Saints games last season :- Gas (H) 2-3; Colchester (a) 1-2 and Wycombe (a) 0-0.
Thedelldays Posted 16 March, 2011 Posted 16 March, 2011 no doubt, they will have a bloody good day and make it very hard for us...or we will make it hard for ourselves

skintsaint Posted 16 March, 2011 Posted 16 March, 2011 6-1 win......Davis error letting in Clinton Morrison to start with. We rally and smash them back to Sheffield.
Thedelldays Posted 16 March, 2011 Posted 16 March, 2011 would be nice to get a boring 2-0 win...I would take that with people moaning we are not playing champagne football than a thrilling 3-2 topsy turvy game
SuperMikey Posted 16 March, 2011 Posted 16 March, 2011 Absolutely have to win this game, no excuses. We're on form, they're not. We have Adkins as our manager, they have Megson. 3-1 Saints!
Rusaldo Posted 16 March, 2011 Posted 16 March, 2011 2-0 Saints. Lallana and Barnard. Nothing pretty but it will get the job done.
dubai_phil Posted 16 March, 2011 Posted 16 March, 2011 Oh well, sorry lads looks like next two games will be scrappy defeats. Yup D_P is back - land at 13:30 and hurtle from Heathrow to SMS for Saturday then staying with Daughter in London for Tuesday, all squeezed around work and a few real ales. Here's hoping my flight in doesn't get delayed Saturday! Chapel here I come WOO HOO!

Sky + DP + EoA watching it either on crappy innernet streaming of if Al Jazeira show it watching it in a bar in Dubai = P!ss poor match ending in defeat. However the good news is that DP is back in UK and not here as Sky + DP/EoA + watching in a bar = 100000000% surething defeat FACT!!
ottery st mary Posted 16 March, 2011 Posted 16 March, 2011 Original prediction 2-0 Saints... Knowing what Saints do to mess up my predictions...have quietly changed this to 3-0... Just know Saints will end up 4-0 winners just to mess me up...Bugggggers the lot of em... WIFM 3-0 Pleeeeeeese
Dark Munster Posted 16 March, 2011 Posted 16 March, 2011 What happened to that Wednesday supporter (Tart Owl something) who was bragging on here at the beginning of season that they'll pip us for first place? She's gone rather quiet over the last few months. I wonder why?

saints-cris Posted 16 March, 2011 Posted 16 March, 2011 No dramas, just a convincing performance please. Get at them early. 2-0
trousers Posted 16 March, 2011 Posted 16 March, 2011 http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/football/teams/s/sheff_wed/9426497.stm Sheffield Wednesday chairman Milan Mandaric says he will face a bill of millions of pounds if the Owls are not promoted from League One this season. Wednesday lie 16th in the third tier, 18 points off the play-off places and only seven above the relegation zone. Mandaric told BBC Radio Sheffield: "Going into next season and still being in League One will probably cost me £6m or £7m.
Thedelldays Posted 16 March, 2011 Posted 16 March, 2011 I fuking hope we ruin mad milans day.. I hate the ****
Saint_clark Posted 16 March, 2011 Author Posted 16 March, 2011 Surely bills for football clubs reach millions of pounds anyway?
jam Posted 16 March, 2011 Posted 16 March, 2011 I fuking hope we ruin mad milans day.. I hate the **** Forgot he was there now. Can't help but have a little smile anytime something goes wrong for him. Sadly he always seems to come out on top in the end.
Matthew Le God Posted 16 March, 2011 Posted 16 March, 2011 He means they will miss out on 3 to 4 million pounds in TV and League money. Plus lower crowds and sponsorship money.
Griffo Posted 16 March, 2011 Posted 16 March, 2011 does anyone know of any pubs in fareham that screen saints games? Isn't there one showing it in Bevois Valley too? Can't quite remember the name of it though..

However the good news is that DP is back in UK and not here as Sky + DP/EoA + watching in a bar = 100000000% surething defeat FACT!! Yeah not sure my memory stretches far enough back to remember being at a televised game. I suppose JPT final so that works better than us two watching it at Goodfellas. Bring on the 6X REAL OSH & London Pride and FFS an even better result, The Zucchinis are playing Saturday Night, now THAT is a musical magical weekend - Stevie Wonder, The Northam & Little Bro. Bring it on! (Oh AND I can drink on the flight as I'm getting a lift - woo hoo!) Oh and I am sure it will an Inter esting trip Sheff W to score 1st, lots of groans and moans but we'll coast to a 2-1 win with about 4 shots going close or hitting the woodwork. It doesn't matter, I'd be yawning even if we played Champagne footie and won 16-0 (have to be at airport at 3:40 UK time!)
hasper57saint Posted 16 March, 2011 Posted 16 March, 2011 Saints to score in the first minute and be four nil up at half time. (I'm saying this because I want to see Claridges effin smirk wiped off his Skate face) We WILL win and win big. I've already placed my bet! COYSaints

Sour Mash Posted 16 March, 2011 Posted 16 March, 2011 I know people hate when this question is asked, but any idea how many tickets sold yet? Guessing it might be reasonably low, so much football on at the moment, plus on tv......
corsacar saint Posted 16 March, 2011 Posted 16 March, 2011 Heart says 4-0 Saints. Head says we are on tv,enough said. Also can Wednesday be as bad saturday as they have basically been since christmas,they have some pretty decent players there.
Micky Posted 16 March, 2011 Posted 16 March, 2011 They are shocking right now, we are on a great run of form, live on Sky - we'll lose, I bloody well know it, we will lose - it's what we do. A game we should be scaring the shyte out of every other team in this division and we still have the capacity to make a complete bollux of it. Form says we should win at a canter - but I've just got that ol' 'Saints' feeling.....
Graffito Posted 16 March, 2011 Posted 16 March, 2011 After last night's drubbing they'll be desperate to avoid defeat. Unless we get an early goal, a disappointing 0 - 0.
iansums Posted 17 March, 2011 Posted 17 March, 2011 Looking forward to this one, taking my 7 year old nephew to his first match. A nice victory and hopefully we'll have another Saints fan for life. As an aside why can't you buy Adult / Under 8 pair of tickets online? Only option was for Adult / Under 12 pair, I ended up having to place an order over the phone.

My nippers first match (at age 7) was us losing to Charlton 3-2 in the year we got relegated from the championship he still loved it and still talks about BWP goal to this day. He is totally red and white now even though all his school mates are Chelsea, Manure, Arse fans.
marc_saint Posted 17 March, 2011 Posted 17 March, 2011 (edited) Sheffield Wednesday have just signed 6ft 7in centre half Rob Jones from S****horpe for the rest of the season and he should make his debut on Saturday. http://www.thestar.co.uk/sport/football/sheffield-wednesday/breaking_sheffield_wednesday_sign_rob_jones_from_s****horpe_1_3190372 S****HORPE’S 6ft 7in centre half Rob Jones today became Sheffield Wednesday’s second loan signing in two days. He will be at Hillsborough for the rest of the season - like Wolves centre back Danny Batth, who signed yesterday. Both are set to make their debuts at Southampton on Saturday. Manager Gary Megson confirmed that, with the end of the season only seven weeks away, the injured Mark Beevers will be out “for quite a while.” He will have an operation on Monday at which it will be decided whether or not to insert a plate into his damaged cheekbone. Megson also revealed that a circular has been sent to other clubs to inform them the Owls have players who are available on loan. No names are mentioned in the letter. Jones, who like Beevers is left-footed, signed for S****horpe from Hibernian for an undisclosed but club record transfer fee in July 2009. He began his career with Stockport County before joining Grimsby Town. The 31-year-old made 121 appearances for Hibs and scored 12 goals. He captained the Easter Road side to their first silverware in 16 years when they lifted the Scottish League Cup in 2007. Edited 17 March, 2011 by Saint_clark Edited the article in.

Here's hoping for some communication. Oh and the link doesn't work because of the swear filter on s****horpe, so i've edited the article into your post.
doddisalegend Posted 17 March, 2011 Posted 17 March, 2011 I've just remembered Wednesday signed Madine from Carlisle in the window, he seems to have made a nasty habit of scoring against us hopefully Fonte will keep him quiet on sat.
saint1977 Posted 17 March, 2011 Posted 17 March, 2011 Lallana is going to cause mayhem if Megson picks Semi. Here's hoping! A new CB partnership for them is bound to bring communication issues and Jones has been in poor form for S'thorpe and if he can't get a game in their back 4 that leaked 3 to PNE midweek then he really must be out in the cold there. I'd be tempted to give Forte a run with 30 minutes to go, chuck them a pacy curve ball after struggling with RL/LB for an hour. On paper, they have some quality front players but I guess their midfield is getting overrun. You can't see Megson lasting much longer with Mad Milan's track record if their run keeps on.

Matthew Le God Posted 17 March, 2011 Posted 17 March, 2011 But Megson doesn't pick Semi, not even on the bench for the last few game, thus the argument is academic at best. He hasn't been picked because he was injured. http://www.owlstalk.co.uk/forums/index.php?showtopic=147893
Ivan Katalinic's 'tache Posted 17 March, 2011 Posted 17 March, 2011 They've signed 2 defenders in the last 2 days: Rob Jones from Scunny and Danny Batth from Wolves. Hopefully, NA will at least know what weaknesses Jones has!
