Ashby Saint Posted 28 April, 2012 Posted 28 April, 2012 Nervous. Keep saying to myself that promotion doesn't really matter but it does.
dune Posted 28 April, 2012 Posted 28 April, 2012 Went to bed at 9 p.m, slept like a log until 6.30 a.m, bring it on.
obelisk Posted 28 April, 2012 Posted 28 April, 2012 At last the day has arrived and I'll be setting off in a couple of hours or so for what I hope will turn out to be a party. I'm sure there'll also be some tension in the air but that can be alleviated by a couple of pints, getting right behind the team and then a couple of early goals (by Saints). I've witnessed many a last day where defeat would have meant playing in a lower division and in a way this is similar. Saints, with the backing of our support, normally wins out on such occasions and I have every confidence that come 1430 we'll be wondering what the fuss was about. Even in the unlikely event that it does go pear-shaped, well Saints can go again in the play-offs. Enjoy the day! This sort of occasion is what it's all about.
saintscottofthenortham Posted 28 April, 2012 Posted 28 April, 2012 Just put £10 on SRL hat-trick at 16/1. It's gotta happen! COYS!!!!
Ziggy Posted 28 April, 2012 Posted 28 April, 2012 Just had my bowl of Alpen. Setting off at 9.00 - only 5 hours until kick off!! COYR!!
Tokyo-Saint Posted 28 April, 2012 Posted 28 April, 2012 I'm on the Hobgoblin... still sh*tting bricks. I hope he didn't mind?
Amazing Hangover Posted 28 April, 2012 Posted 28 April, 2012 I'm on the Hobgoblin... still sh*tting bricks. You wont be tomorrow morning. Anything but. A great loosener is that ale.
Stubby Posted 28 April, 2012 Posted 28 April, 2012 I'm not nervous about tomorrow at all. Less than 3 years ago we were going into a pre-season match against Eastleigh thinking it could be our last game ever. A month or so later we were bottom of league 1 on -10. There is no way in hell I am getting upset if we finish 3rd in the Championship, two games from Wembley, and 3 games from the Prem. There is nothing to be nervous about, just enjoy the ride. Thanks for this. It's good to keep this sort of perspective. But if we don't go up, the summer will be full of "what if?" thoughts. A few weeks ago we were flying. It's fantastic to be near the top of league division 2. But it would still be a huge deflation if we don't go up having had such a great season.
obelisk Posted 28 April, 2012 Posted 28 April, 2012 Must admit that in my more depressing moments I've thought to myself that it would be typical of Saints to be in the top two all season and then drop out in the last minute of the last day. Now that would be something to have a gripe about but surely it isn't gonna happen.
Pedro Posted 28 April, 2012 Posted 28 April, 2012 One thing for certain, whatever the score, this forum will meltdown, either ecstatic in victory or deflated in defeat. COYS
Mowgli Posted 28 April, 2012 Posted 28 April, 2012 Where are all those people who declare every game as a must win game? Today is your day too :-) Feeling nervous but confident. Enjoy the day everyone. I cannot believe how far we have come in such a short space of time.
Suomi Saint Posted 28 April, 2012 Posted 28 April, 2012 Saints will win, don't worry all. I was nervous a few days ago, but no more. I have the same feeling as the morning of May 1st 1976. Never thought we'd lose then, don't know. Just roar the boys on and they will deliver.
saintsmooth Posted 28 April, 2012 Posted 28 April, 2012 Massive day,,,,,, lets get back where we belong my friends!

Fowllyd Posted 28 April, 2012 Posted 28 April, 2012 Will be leaving Horndean about 10:30. Gram Parsons on the car stereo, flicking the Vs to my left as I cruise along the M27 past that septic isle. It's going to be a great day and I feel like a five-year-old on amphetamines. Bring it on.

ericofarabia Posted 28 April, 2012 Posted 28 April, 2012 FECK FECK FECK - just found out that that bunch of *****s at Al Jism aren't showing the game now. They really should have all their licences taken away from them. Frigging useless shytehawks. I am fuming. Now got to let people coming from Ras Al Khamieh and Abu Dhabi not to bother. Al Jism you are a bunch of a holes. How can you change your schedule on the day of the game. Now it's down to watching the most important game ever on a dodgy unreliable stream on my own instead of with loads of fellow Saints in a pub. FFS

ericofarabia Posted 28 April, 2012 Posted 28 April, 2012 Bastards!! Go round phil's and watch it? He is boozing it up somewhere near SMS and it wouldn't make any difference - Al Jism aren't showing it now, after having it in their schedule y'day!!
