SNSUN Posted 20 March, 2012 Share Posted 20 March, 2012 NOW I want to do the Beeb prediction league. Even being as stingy as possible towards Saints, it'll be tough to get us to finish in the play-offs. West Ham and Reading have to meet - and I think we could be the nail in Reading's coffin when they visit SMS. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OttawaSaint Posted 20 March, 2012 Share Posted 20 March, 2012 Increadible night, I was following at the start and then had to go pick up the kids, caught the last 30 mins, ecstatic. Didn't want to post on the match thread, was too nervous, wanted everything to just stay the same and have us clear at the top. Breathless...

Gigersaint Posted 20 March, 2012 Share Posted 20 March, 2012 Amazing night of football, so many unexpected twists and turns even with results that didn't necessarily affect us directly. Keep it going Saints, nearly there now!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ohio Saint Posted 20 March, 2012 Share Posted 20 March, 2012 Mixed news, admit that it helps us massively, but never nice to see injuries like that. I have ethics and morals and all that. I've just found out that I also can be bought at the right price. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

vince Posted 20 March, 2012 Share Posted 20 March, 2012 Tonight couldnt have gone any better. Two sh*tty, sh*tty away games out of the way with max points. We lead WHU and Reading by the best part of two games, with 8 to go. A result one way or the other between them when they play may well be the tipping point. Can we go up by beating the Skates ? I don't think so - by then Wham will have played 4 games, us 2. Assuming they lose all 4 (67 points) and we win both (then 78 points), that gives a gap of 11 points, with Wham having 18 left to win.

Lighthouse Posted 20 March, 2012 Share Posted 20 March, 2012 Going through all the scenarios in my mind, this one has me pretty excited... Reading only have 2 easy home games left, Palace and Forest. Now assuming they were to win them both, we would just need 1 more point in our remaining fixtures than they get in games against Blackpool, Leeds, Saints, Wham, Brighton and Brum (4 of those are away). We're soooo close. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seaford Saint Posted 20 March, 2012 Share Posted 20 March, 2012 another bit of good news, if you can take it.. Readings Jason Roberts has torn his hamstring in tonights game at P'boro 4-5 weeks out Great news...this news will shut half my household up....whilst other half will chuckle. Oh my God promotion really does beckon. Note to self...must display sympathy to wife over Roberts injury......I am in Dusseldorf, all day meeting tomorrow - it's been a fantastic night.

Stu Man Do Posted 20 March, 2012 Share Posted 20 March, 2012 Just to put this in some perspective to QPR who won easily enough last year ... http://www.statto.com/football/stats/england/league-championship/2010-2011/table/2011-03-19 1point worse off than QPR BUT 8 better than Norwich at this point and 9 better than Swansea!

saints_is_the_south Posted 20 March, 2012 Share Posted 20 March, 2012 What a night. To go away to a team unbeaten in 12 with the best defensive record in the league, and win with relative ease (could and should have been 4-0 up in the first 20 minutes) is an excellent result. Coupled with the other two's results, amazing. And what's best is that I bet you Reading & West Ham fans looked at tonight's fixtures and were probably banking on us slipping up and them gaining ground. We had the toughest game of the night out of the 3, and came through it with flying colours. Said this morning if we won tonight then I'd really start believing, with that win and the other results I am now convinced we are going up as champions. Get in!

Cabrone Posted 20 March, 2012 Share Posted 20 March, 2012 Well, well - our result tonight was a real bonus and the results around us made it a double bonus. West Ham have a real issue at home (thanks to Alladyce's negative mindset) with 4 home games left to play and Reading are finally cracking at exactly the wrong time with an extremely tough run of games coming up. We on the other hand are looking stronger and stronger. Win our home games and we'll be there IMO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
