Daren W Posted 13 August, 2011 Posted 13 August, 2011 Yes I know it's only two games, yes I know it won't be for long... But considering the **** we've had to put up with over the last five years? I'm going to enjoy it...
thornhill_saints Posted 13 August, 2011 Posted 13 August, 2011 please close he beat me by seconds and my 1st thred... gutted
Under Weststand Posted 13 August, 2011 Posted 13 August, 2011 Yes I know it's only two games, yes I know it won't be for long... But considering the **** we've had to put up with over the last five years? I'm going to enjoy it... To right we've had enough S**t in the past you have to enjoy the good times when they come along, Long may it continue.
Daren W Posted 13 August, 2011 Author Posted 13 August, 2011 No doubt we'll get the killjoys on here moaning about being arrogant/complacent/it's just two games etc etc but its days like this that we go to football for. We may be top for a day or top all season but considering we we've been and we've suffered... it's ****ing great...
ant Posted 13 August, 2011 Posted 13 August, 2011 Yeah sod it, let's soak up the small glories - we still know there's a fair chance this won't carry on all season! Wasn't going to bother doing much today but I think it's beer o' clock and time to head out
Matthew Le God Posted 13 August, 2011 Posted 13 August, 2011 In August 2009 Saints were 68th in England. In August 2011 Saints are 21st in England. Well done Nicola + Nigel
SaintAndy14 Posted 13 August, 2011 Posted 13 August, 2011 Amazing feeling! We deserve to enjoy it! COYR!
ericofarabia Posted 13 August, 2011 Posted 13 August, 2011 Thought I'd join in!! Not every week we are top of the league and there are only 2 other threads and 2 post match freds. you can't have enough of a good thing it seems when there aren't any mods to sort it out!!
Toadhall Saint Posted 13 August, 2011 Posted 13 August, 2011 In August 2009 Saints were 68th in England. In August 2011 Saints are 21st in England. Well done Nicola + Nigel Good point - very well made.
Junction 9 Posted 13 August, 2011 Posted 13 August, 2011 When was the last time this happened? In any division.
Katalinic Posted 13 August, 2011 Posted 13 August, 2011 Yes I know it's only two games, yes I know it won't be for long... But considering the **** we've had to put up with over the last five years? I'm going to enjoy it... Quite right - those dark days were grim indeed.
skintsaint Posted 13 August, 2011 Posted 13 August, 2011 Brighton up there too. Great start by both of us. can Brighton keep up?
rocknrollman no2 Posted 13 August, 2011 Posted 13 August, 2011 I know its only been two games into the season,but it still feels great to see Saints at the top of the table and it makes it so much better that the Skates lost. I love weekends like this.

I love weekends like this. Especially when those Skate B***ards were lording it over us week after week for the past few years. But the natural world order of us as the top south coast club has been resumed and was always going to be the case, it's the law.
Gigersaint Posted 13 August, 2011 Posted 13 August, 2011 Brilliant to see Saints top, it's been a very long time since I last saw that. I know it's only 2 games in but it's nice to see all the same. Hope we can keep the momentum going, it's great to be a Saints supporter right now and long may it continue!

I don't know why people are getting carried away its only 2 games and it was only a 1-0 !
Delmary Posted 13 August, 2011 Posted 13 August, 2011 I don't know why people are getting carried away its only 2 games and it was only a 1-0 ! Shut up;). Ok, it's only two games but let's all just enjoy the moment whilst it last.
aintforever Posted 13 August, 2011 Posted 13 August, 2011 Great stuff, last time we were top of any league was some time in the 80's.
HK_Phoey Posted 13 August, 2011 Posted 13 August, 2011 Last time I ever remember being top of any league was around Christmas 1983 or 4 . Bad winter and think we won against Swansea when no one else played. Keegan was playing for us that will tell you show lowing ago it was
Rory Posted 13 August, 2011 Posted 13 August, 2011 Beautiful! Only one place behind the Premier League
Dazza82 Posted 13 August, 2011 Posted 13 August, 2011 I don't know why people are getting carried away its only 2 games and it was only a 1-0 ! Do wins not count when its 1-0? A win is a win if its 1-0, 9-8 or 3-1 it doesnt matter they all end in 3 points
Gigersaint Posted 13 August, 2011 Posted 13 August, 2011 I don't know why people are getting carried away its only 2 games and it was only a 1-0 ! I really don't think anyone is getting carried away, just pleased to Saints top for once for the first time in many years! Enjoy it while we are there, as much as we'd all like it too it may not and probably wont last!
S-Clarke Posted 13 August, 2011 Posted 13 August, 2011 I don't know why people are getting carried away its only 2 games and it was only a 1-0 ! Stop trying to justify your stupid predictions.
dune Posted 13 August, 2011 Posted 13 August, 2011 I don't know why people are getting carried away its only 2 games and it was only a 1-0 ! Bring back Glen Hoddle
OttawaSaint Posted 13 August, 2011 Posted 13 August, 2011 When was the last time this happened? In any division. 87/88, we won the first 3 (West Ham, QPR, Luton I think) and were 2-0 up at Highbury in the 4th game, Paul Davis punched out Glenn Cockerill.....9 mins of stoppage time....the rest is history....
Gemmel Posted 13 August, 2011 Posted 13 August, 2011 Yes I know it's only two games, yes I know it won't be for long... But considering the **** we've had to put up with over the last five years?

Absolutely mate, from relegations, administrations, points deductions, quarrelling exes, split fan base, dutch clowns and twitchy managers .........to this My beer tastes so sweet

Didn't we go 19 games without a win after the Arsenal game?
Thedelldays Posted 13 August, 2011 Posted 13 August, 2011 well...how can we be top..the players dont play for adkins, they are not NPC standard, NC is a **** to work for, we are skint, we play long ball... we have not won 9 in a row, we have not lost only 1 in 18, we have only lost at home to man u this year and we have won about 5 away games on the trot put that in your pipe saint lard
OttawaSaint Posted 13 August, 2011 Posted 13 August, 2011 Didn't we go 19 games without a win after the Arsenal game? No it was later in that same season, and may have been as many as 22 games, Ruddock with a 90th min penalty vs Newcastle to finally get us back on the winning track...
OttawaSaint Posted 13 August, 2011 Posted 13 August, 2011 Bah, correction, it was 88/89 when we stated with 3 wins (and had that 22? games without a win...)

benjii Posted 13 August, 2011 Posted 13 August, 2011 I remember predicting in a thread a while ago that we would have 9 or 10 points from our first 5 matches and someone replied along the lines, "lol,we'd be in the top 2, you're deluded". Up yours cock face.

Crazy Diamond Posted 13 August, 2011 Posted 13 August, 2011 Way to pollute the thread. Oasis? ****ing hell.
Dalek2003 Posted 13 August, 2011 Posted 13 August, 2011 S-Clarke, Giger Saint and Dazzer.....I was joking ! Read the quote before my reply ffs !
