(Actually if you go by published odds it's most likely to be Monday, since the odds say we're more likely to D/L this Sat than to win, but next most likely is last day, if it happens. Please stop these threads!)

We're already up. West Ham won't win their last two games.

 

They might. Especially if they somehow manage a win at leicester, which is unlikely but not impossible. It could still go to the cov game, but for the sake of my blood pressure I f*cking hope it doesnt.

No they don't. General odds are:

 

Saints 13/10

'Boro 2/1

Draw 12/5

 

So the bookies say Saturday. Doesn't mean they're right.

On those odds the combined probability of us drawing or losing is slightly more than probability of winning. So it's Monday or the next Saturday, if at all.

I don't like these threads :(

 

tempting fate much?

 

what they said...

 

I hope it will be this Saturday!

 

I think we all do.

no we are not. If results go badly against us at the weekend (as they did the other week) it could mean that there is alot to play for on the final day for us, wham & coventry.

 

we are in a good position, almost there but not quite. We should go up, but were not there already.

Oops. I see what you mean.

 

Suitably embarrassed :blush:

When we have sufficient points and no more games to play. Some fans are tempting fate.

 

This is so true! Best to stick with the Adkins plan;"One game at a time." Still time for more twists yet.

Do you honestly believe that Nigel hasn't believed that we've done more than enough to be promoted for a fair while now?

He may say one game at a time etc etc etc but I bet he knows we're already in the PL.That's why he's talking about one of his players becoming one of the best midfielders in that division.

Could easily mess it up. Can anyone post our record at the Riverside? I have a hunch that it's not particularly good.
I think we won our last game there 3-1 - Crouchie

Come on people there are only 2 games left and we are 5 points clear, the only team that can catch us have only amassed 24 points out of the last 45 available. We are the highest scoring side and we play a team with the lowest home scoring rate and another with the lowest away scoring rate. It's may not be certain but there is a very big chance we will go up.

We will also play a relegated side at home with the worst away record in the football league.

You're going to still be in the ground on Monday evening? That's dedication.

 

They play on monday, didn't realise that.

Nothing is certain except the fact we won't finish 17th.

 

For me West Ham playing on Monday is all upside for them. If we win, then they concentrate on the playoffs, if we lose, game on.

Chill out. It's in the bag.

 

You can't have been a Saints fan very long as your optimism has coincided with our poor and obvious run of results :)

 

I on the other hand knew we'd blow it and think we will next weekend.

We haven't blown it though. I really don't get why people think like this.

 

We'll be fine.

Love how Cov are being magically transformed into some kind of championship force, even after they have been relegated.

 

The reality is that they are complete gash and if we do a professional job we will beat them and we will go up.

 

Even if Cov somehow managed to grab their 1% chance of an upset and Wham somehow managed to get above us we'd still be in the playoffs and if that failed we'd just have to have another cracking season in the champ.

 

More interested now about who we are going to sign and how we are going to do in the prem.

Doncaster were meant to be gash when we played them.......

yeah..and we won...no worries there

 

Well exactly, Doncaster played pretty well that day as well, yet we still had way too much for them even in 1st gear. We will be fine.

Meant first time around. No denying we have a history of losing to teams at the bottom surely?

no, you are right.

but to have a must win game in this league

 

then coventry at home is as good as it gets really

Without wanting to contradict myself I agree it is better to play coventry than Leicester. Just dont think Leicester will try anywhere near as hard as west ham tomorrow.. We shall see!

 

I am TRYING to be positive about this next week, I really am :)
