Noodles34 Posted 23 April, 2012 Share Posted 23 April, 2012 Yes, but who the f**k wants to be promoted like that ??? no, that would be stupid wouldn't it, whats the point eh, should elect to stay down and finish the job properly, instead of doing better than all the other teams bar one.

anothersaintinsouthsea Posted 23 April, 2012 Share Posted 23 April, 2012 Blimey Leicester were crap. Absolutely no intensity from them at all, how many of their midfielders got a foot in and went in for a 50-50? All in our hands now, if we can't beat Coventry......

alpine_saint Posted 23 April, 2012 Share Posted 23 April, 2012 Stop being West Ham supporters and start being Saints fans.... What a daft comment.

Saint Without a Halo Posted 23 April, 2012 Share Posted 23 April, 2012 if we draw 0-0 3-0 will see hammers up! as they will be equal on GD but will have scored one more than us. If we are to draw a high scoring draw is best in that case westham will need to win 4-0 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kingsbridge Saint Posted 23 April, 2012 Share Posted 23 April, 2012 So West Ham kicked away the blind mans stick. Different Leicester to the one we played. Interesting.

shirleysfc Posted 23 April, 2012 Share Posted 23 April, 2012 Coventry are sh1t and have been all season.

alpine_saint Posted 23 April, 2012 Share Posted 23 April, 2012 I appreciate the logic of the 'we would have taken this before the season started' and 'it's still in our hands' etc. But in the context of being in the top two all season, and possibly being out of it only on the last day is still pretty devastating!

Nexstar Posted 23 April, 2012 Share Posted 23 April, 2012 Leicester were pretty useless and the Hammers should have had far more than they did.

hackedoff Posted 23 April, 2012 Share Posted 23 April, 2012 A victory for the team who got the ball forward quickly against the side that played sideways and backward football, just like us against Boro.

Dark Munster Posted 23 April, 2012 Share Posted 23 April, 2012 So one point will be enough as long as West Ham don't do better than 3-0. Not quite. One point will only be enough as long as West Ham don't do better than a 2 goal win. If we draw they need to win by a 3 goal margin and score 3 more goals than us. 0-0 to us then they need to win 3-0 or better to go up. 1-1 to us and they need to win 4-1 or better to go up, etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
saintant Posted 23 April, 2012 Share Posted 23 April, 2012 No pressure on West Ham then? Am I missing something here? Why does everyone keep saying all the pressure is on us? Has anyone compared the home records? West Ham would be better off if their final game was away. We will beat Coventry comfortably on Saturday and West Ham may not even win against Hull - look at their home record which is pants. Too may panicking on here when we should still be very confident.

Minsk Posted 23 April, 2012 Share Posted 23 April, 2012 (edited) There really are some big girl's blouses on here tonight. Whilst I was hoping for a last minute equaliser, I also am happy that we can secure promotion ourselves on the last day of the season in front of a full house at St. Mary's. To me, that is how a promotion should be sealed. NOT with the press saying we are up because WHam failed!! We will win on Saturday, and will do so comfortably.

You can hardly blame our fans for a fatalistic streak, considering the opportunities we've had to sew this up and blown. Only people with a negative mind set whinge on about blown opportunities.

Kingsbridge Saint Posted 23 April, 2012 Share Posted 23 April, 2012 So how do West Ham go on Saturday if they hear we have taken the lead? Lots of reasons to be optimistic about the outcome at the weekend. The Press will obviously big it up for all its worth.
