Joesaint Posted 14 February, 2012 Share Posted 14 February, 2012 No injurys, will take a point although do feel a bit gutted. I still believe we can do get promotion although for some reason saints clearly play better at 3 o clock + WH players didnt play saturday and therefore maybe better condition!

Thedelldays Posted 14 February, 2012 Share Posted 14 February, 2012 We really are. We're on a nice little unbeaten run in the league now, defense is tightening up with Jos returning and we sound lively again. No surprise that we're improving with our better players coming back. puncheon sounded very lively when he came on....probably will start on sat with hammond Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Professor Posted 14 February, 2012 Share Posted 14 February, 2012 Not good enough but not the fault of the players. Adkins and Crosby need to work out how to play against 10 men. Maybe the problem is that on match days they are always in the technical area and not listening to Radio Solent to get Dave Merrington's advice!!!

S-Clarke Posted 14 February, 2012 Share Posted 14 February, 2012 puncheon sounded very lively when he came on....probably will start on sat with hammond Surprised he didn't start tbh. Looking forward to Saturday, huge chances to go back top of the league as WHU don't play this weekend. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alpine_saint Posted 14 February, 2012 Share Posted 14 February, 2012 A point is better than a poke in the eye. Satisfied rather than ecstatic. Been distracted this evening - did Goolie warrant his selection or did Puncheon prove that NA got it wrong ? What's with the Robert Green comments ?

Toomer Posted 14 February, 2012 Share Posted 14 February, 2012 From the sound of it we had chances to win it but would have taken a point before the start. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
M271 Posted 14 February, 2012 Share Posted 14 February, 2012 At least thats the "tougher" run of games over. With the remaining games we have, only 5 of them are in the top half of the table. Careful I thought that just before the Bristol City away game and an 'easier' December. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Colinjb Posted 14 February, 2012 Share Posted 14 February, 2012 A good fighting point. I feel our game plan may have been off but we are still in the fight at the summit. Both sides missed chances, that is an honourable draw. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Saints Warrior Posted 14 February, 2012 Share Posted 14 February, 2012 good point awya to biggest team in the leaque for squad. WH are 1/4 to get promoted and this point means Saints are still 3 points clear of 3rd and a win on Sat vs Derby and results going our way can get us back on track. We got the points and promotion is in our hands just like last season. well done Saints Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pamplemousse Posted 14 February, 2012 Share Posted 14 February, 2012 Interesting stat to be positive about: the average points of our remaining opposition is 39.667, statistically we have the easiest run in in the division. By contrast, West Ham have the second most in the division , 43.625 is the average points of their remaining opposition. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

smithy Posted 14 February, 2012 Share Posted 14 February, 2012 Would have taken that before the game but after listening to the second half we should have won easily. Will take the point and the four we have had off them though....happy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also agree with your last point by the way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jack Posted 14 February, 2012 Share Posted 14 February, 2012 Would have taken it pre match. We've just come off the back of a bad run, and while some will still point at the fact we've only won X games in X many attempts, we're unbeaten in 4 games against Cardiff, Birmingham, Burnley and West Ham. Very important that. Win on Saturday and that'll be 7 points this week. Every one of us would have bitten your arm off for that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think we can go back to the top and stay there now. Blackpool will tear them apart - so much pace in their side. I think that's what we lacked today in effect, just that yard to penetrate their back 4 and also somebody to shore up the midfield - Cork too hotheaded and Schneiderlin giving away silly fouls. Sounds like Hammond did well when he came on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CanadaSaint Posted 14 February, 2012 Share Posted 14 February, 2012 I'm actually a bit disappointed but pleased at the same time. I thought we had more than enough to see them off if we'd had the courage to go at them as soon as they went one goal up and one man down. Still a good point, though.
