Crazy Diamond Posted 13 March, 2012 Posted 13 March, 2012 Thank God that's over. Dunt ave to lisun t'Rowvers playur evuh agen.
S-Clarke Posted 13 March, 2012 Posted 13 March, 2012 FT 1-1. Knew they couldn't keep winning, week in, week out. Wasted chance for Reading, you'd have to say - based on the chances they have. Very very good night for us. Most definitely a 3 horse race now - no one else is involved in the autos.
trousers Posted 13 March, 2012 Posted 13 March, 2012 (edited) Top evening..... West Ham drop out of top 2 Reading 2 points behind Saints (and GD 14 less) with no more games in hand Birmingham lost Cardiff lost I love you Carslberg!! Edited 13 March, 2012 by trousers
alpine_saint Posted 13 March, 2012 Posted 13 March, 2012 Looking at the table, it really is a 3-horse race now, maybe our nose in front. Middlesbrough still have a very faint outside chance. Going to be a sickener for the team that misses out. If we hadnt lost twice to Bristol City this would be as near as dammit to being over.
trousers Posted 13 March, 2012 Posted 13 March, 2012 Forest drawn as well Nope....last minute goal for Derby

Going to be a sickener for the team that misses out. If we hadnt lost twice to Bristol City this would be as near as dammit to being over. What's maybe got to do with it? Of course we have our noses in front. We have the best GD, the most points and everything is in our hands. We have to play Reading, and this was one of Readings easier remaining away games - and they didn't win.

Pilchards Posted 13 March, 2012 Posted 13 March, 2012 Why the fuss about Derby winning? I was hoping Forest won so it means the Skates are further adrift?
S-Clarke Posted 13 March, 2012 Posted 13 March, 2012 If Reading manage to get a result against us, the whole landscape changes. 'If' ! At the moment that game is a long, long way away and as it stands at the moment our noses are well and truly in front.
Ohio Saint Posted 13 March, 2012 Posted 13 March, 2012 Donny taters keep calling level on top on points "Joint top" GD no longer counts?

Going to be a sickener for the team that misses out. If we hadnt lost twice to Bristol City this would be as near as dammit to being over. If we had more points we would be further ahead. If we had fewer we would be down the table. Rochdale did the double over us last season.
trousers Posted 13 March, 2012 Posted 13 March, 2012 @adlallana1: Well done @S_Gilly18 tonight!! Great point for u boys! See you a week sat at st Mary's lad
Pugwash Posted 13 March, 2012 Posted 13 March, 2012 Nope....last minute goal for Derby Yeh, Donny tater got it wrong...
alpine_saint Posted 13 March, 2012 Posted 13 March, 2012 If we had more points we would be further ahead. If we had fewer we would be down the table. Rochdale did the double over us last season. Rochdale were a useful team last season. Bristol City are useless c*nts followed by mongs.
Toomer Posted 13 March, 2012 Posted 13 March, 2012 Right Donny you have done your job now you can start playing shilt again,
Jimmy_D Posted 13 March, 2012 Posted 13 March, 2012 Donny have done us a huge favour this week with two fantastic results from our point of view
beatlesaint Posted 13 March, 2012 Posted 13 March, 2012 If we hadnt lost twice to Bristol City this would be as near as dammit to being over. Bet you said that about Rochdale last season.
trousers Posted 13 March, 2012 Posted 13 March, 2012 Right Donny you have done your job now you can start playing shilt again, Didn't he retire 15 years ago?
alpine_saint Posted 13 March, 2012 Posted 13 March, 2012 Donny have done us a huge favour this week with two fantastic results from our point of view Must have something to do with us taking that train picture off their hands.
JackFrost Posted 13 March, 2012 Posted 13 March, 2012 If Reading manage to get a result against us, the whole landscape changes. Don't forget Reading also have to go to Upton Park which is a bonus whatever way you look at it
alpine_saint Posted 13 March, 2012 Posted 13 March, 2012 Bet you said that about Rochdale last season. Nope. The match that angered me then was Walsall.
trousers Posted 13 March, 2012 Posted 13 March, 2012 Nope. The match that angered me then was Walsall. [video=youtube_share;d-diB65scQU]
shurlock Posted 13 March, 2012 Posted 13 March, 2012 Nope. The match that angered me then was Walsall. Come on you must be licking your lips in anticipation of a Donny double.
Kingsland Red Posted 13 March, 2012 Posted 13 March, 2012 Always easier to chase than actually break through and reach a target - hence the amazing feat for a newly promoted club sitting at the top to be shot at for so long.
DG Posted 13 March, 2012 Posted 13 March, 2012 Good set of results for us, and West Ham have Leeds away at the weekend too.
alpine_saint Posted 13 March, 2012 Posted 13 March, 2012 Always easier to chase than actually break through and reach a target - hence the amazing feat for a newly promoted club sitting at the top to be shot at for so long. Indeed. Would be almost a criminal act for us to be mugged in the last few games of the season.
The Cat Posted 13 March, 2012 Posted 13 March, 2012 Geat results tonight. Hoping for a West Ham vs Birmingham play off final in a 'losers go bust' game.
S-Clarke Posted 13 March, 2012 Posted 13 March, 2012 lol @ reading fan's reaction ''Disgraceful result'' ''disgusting result'' ''embarrasing'' Mongs.
sfc4prem Posted 13 March, 2012 Posted 13 March, 2012 If we can f*ck Millwall up on Saturday and West Ham drop points against Leeds it'll start looking a little bleak for the Hammers...
Saint_Ash Posted 13 March, 2012 Posted 13 March, 2012 Indeed. Would be almost a criminal act for us to be mugged in the last few games of the season. Maybe at some point you could also try praising the team for being top with ten games to go. Just a thought eh? Would it really pain you that much or does putting a negative slant on everything arouse you that much?
Cabrone Posted 13 March, 2012 Posted 13 March, 2012 Good set of results for us, and West Ham have Leeds away at the weekend too. Leeds could be our best friends over the next few weeks, they play both Wham and Reading and if they play like they did against us I can see them taking points off both. Still not sure how we won up there but it felt like a real turning point. Leeds are my dark horses for promotion - if they could squeak into the playoffs I think they would win it. Who'd have thought it, everyone at Saints wishing moany Warnock the best of luck.
Jimmy_D Posted 13 March, 2012 Posted 13 March, 2012 Good to see the Manager of the Month curse was in full effect for this month at least
wightman35 Posted 13 March, 2012 Posted 13 March, 2012 (edited) Well done, Donny! Presume S Gillett did his bit tonight for Saints. Very pleased with this week's results, so far. Edited 13 March, 2012 by wightman35 typo
Thedelldays Posted 13 March, 2012 Posted 13 March, 2012 i knew reading would drop points... A. they simply cannot win every game b. they were getting a lot of attention for it c. one of their players (karacan i think) was giving it the big one in the paper saying that reading have not hit top form yet now they have a tricky game away to barnsley at the weekend whilst the hammers have what is not going to be a very hard game at leeds
shurlock Posted 13 March, 2012 Posted 13 March, 2012 Think the performance as much as result up at Hull will say alot. Probably the toughest game left on paper.
S-Clarke Posted 13 March, 2012 Posted 13 March, 2012 i knew reading would drop points... A. they simply cannot win every game b. they were getting a lot of attention for it c. one of their players (karacan i think) was giving it the big one in the paper saying that reading have not hit top form yet now they have a tricky game away to barnsley at the weekend whilst the hammers have what is not going to be a very hard game at leeds This was their easiest (on paper) remaining away game, and they cocked it up - you have to say. They still have to go to WHU, P'boro, Brighton, Us, and Birmingham on the last day. As long as we keep ticking along as we have been, and ensure that we get something against them in the big game - we'll be fine. The fact that WHU and Reading play eachother is such a huge bonus for us.
aintforever Posted 13 March, 2012 Posted 13 March, 2012 It's definitely looking like one from three, although it's a bit early to say as the picture can change very quickly. We're 12 points ahead of the 7th placed team now, even if we mess on auto we have a good chance of another trip to Wemberleee.
S-Clarke Posted 13 March, 2012 Posted 13 March, 2012 In fact, Readings next 7 games look horrendous on paper... Barnsley away, P'Boro away, Blackpool home, WHU away, Leeds home, Brighton away, Southampton away. They will drop plenty of points there.
Pamplemousse Posted 13 March, 2012 Posted 13 March, 2012 It would be nice to think we can go on a good winning streak and let West Ham and Reading scrap it out for 2nd but sadly I think this one will go down to the wire. Hopefully last season's promotion run will give us a good mental advantage
Pedro Posted 13 March, 2012 Posted 13 March, 2012 lol @ reading fan's reaction ''Disgraceful result'' ''disgusting result'' ''embarrasing'' Mongs. Just like some of our wrist slitters on here after dropping points.
S-Clarke Posted 13 March, 2012 Posted 13 March, 2012 Just like some of our wrist slitters on here after dropping points. Nah....we don't have any of those....
dubai_phil Posted 13 March, 2012 Posted 13 March, 2012 Nah....we don't have any of those.... Although, TBF to them, IF we hadn't dropped all those points in DEC/JAN we'd have been around 8,976 points clear at the Top by now And we would have swapped wrist slitting for complacency
