Colinjb Posted 14 December, 2012 Posted 14 December, 2012 (edited) Other then having a game in hand, looking at the fixtures, what do we reckon? Looking at the fixtures below, Sunderland will probably be put into their place at Old Trafford, Villa are on something of an upturn currently but so are Liverpool, put Suarez back into contention though and that should see them off. Could see QPR getting a first win v Fulham and Reading. Norwich and Wigan will be tricky to call too. Wouldn't be surprised to be back in the bottom three by the end of play, but then that keeps the tension going, it wouldn't be Saints without a little tension. Saturday Newcastle v Man City Liverpool v Villa Man Utd v Sunderland Norwich v Wigan QPR v Fulham Stoke v Everton Sunday Tottenham v Swansea West Brom v West Ham Monday Reading v Arsenal Edited 15 December, 2012 by Colinjb
Maggie May Posted 15 December, 2012 Posted 15 December, 2012 Fulham will beat QPR and Villa will beat Liverpool. Think we'll be 17th.
Soggy Bottom Posted 15 December, 2012 Posted 15 December, 2012 I usually stream a match when we aren't playing say a Sunday or Monday, can't see one that would interest me today bit of a miss match on all of them
SNSUN Posted 15 December, 2012 Posted 15 December, 2012 They're all back to front! Aways are homes and vice versa. Or am I going mental? Actually apart from the early kick off (Man City to win away at Newcastle), and the Monday game (Arsenal to beat Reading) I think it'll be home wins across the board. All very good for Saints. A win next week would be a lovely Christmas present.

John Boy Saint Posted 15 December, 2012 Posted 15 December, 2012 I thought the answer was going to be watching Sports Personality of the Year: but realised it was a sensible question. I won't let the door bang on my ar$e on the way out!
saints_is_the_south Posted 15 December, 2012 Posted 15 December, 2012 Newcastle 1-2 Man City Liverpool 2-0 Aston Villa Man Utd 3-0 Sunderland Norwich 2-1 Wigan QPR 2-2 Fulham Reading 1-3 Arsenal Saints stay 16th.
Saint Garrett Posted 15 December, 2012 Posted 15 December, 2012 Weeks where we don't play are **** I don't know what to do with myself!!
S-Clarke Posted 15 December, 2012 Posted 15 December, 2012 Will be a dull day today, but I can see QPR getting a win today - pretty comfortably too IMO.
cryoman1965 Posted 15 December, 2012 Posted 15 December, 2012 Newcastle 1-2 Man City Liverpool 2-0 Aston Villa Man Utd 3-0 Sunderland Norwich 2-1 Wigan QPR 2-2 Fulham Reading 1-3 Arsenal Saints stay 16th. Is this your tip for the weekly accy. Got to be worth a couple of £.
trousers Posted 15 December, 2012 Posted 15 December, 2012 Newcastle just pulled a goal back... Newcastle 1 Man City 2 Come on City!
rshephard3 Posted 15 December, 2012 Posted 15 December, 2012 Will be a dull day today, but I can see QPR getting a win today - pretty comfortably too IMO. Agree. Redknapp has sured them up defensively and everyone at QPR will know today is just about win or bust. Personally think Reading will be bottom at Christmas and by Feb totally cut adrift. QPR will join the party late but have a go at staying up. Fulham could do us a massive favour today.
saints_is_the_south Posted 15 December, 2012 Posted 15 December, 2012 Hope United put 4 or 5 past Sunderland today, dent their goal difference and confidence before they play u.
St Chalet Posted 15 December, 2012 Posted 15 December, 2012 Villa winning against the head is **** news.
S-Clarke Posted 15 December, 2012 Posted 15 December, 2012 Shame we couldn't show a bit more about us when we went there.
OttawaSaint Posted 15 December, 2012 Posted 15 December, 2012 ****'s sake. Hope Liverpool end up in the bottom 3, never liked that bunch of ****s since they piped us to the title with a few late spawny winners...
Griffo Posted 15 December, 2012 Posted 15 December, 2012 Steven Fletcher off injured for Sunderland apparently. Very good news.
St Chalet Posted 15 December, 2012 Posted 15 December, 2012 3-0 Villa Bastards. Oh and QPR 1-0 control the controlables. Sunderland game become very important.
S-Clarke Posted 15 December, 2012 Posted 15 December, 2012 Wigan equalize. A pretty forgettable day so far. Horrific set.
rshephard3 Posted 15 December, 2012 Posted 15 December, 2012 Least Sunderland are getting bummed to put them back on a confidence downer. And Fletcher went off injured.
Matthew Le God Posted 15 December, 2012 Posted 15 December, 2012 Wigan equalize. A pretty forgettable day so far. Horrific set. Newcastle and Sunderland lost/losing and Sunderland's main goal threat going off injured 7 days before we play them. We won't have every result go our way every week, what we've got is some important things today - key being Fletcher possibly out next week.

We won't have every result go our way every week, what we've got is some important things today - key being Fletcher possibly out next week. I'm only commenting on what i see! Speculation that fetcher will be out, probably won't be. So that's not a positive until the team is announced next week. Was hoping Liverpool would do a job, but it makes our effort there look pretty poor in comparison.
Matthew Le God Posted 15 December, 2012 Posted 15 December, 2012 Was hoping Liverpool would do a job, but it makes our effort there look pretty poor in comparison. Equally Villa looked terrible when we beat them 4-1 at St Mary's.
Saint Fan CaM Posted 15 December, 2012 Posted 15 December, 2012 We will be 17th with nothing much changed. Villa will thrash Liverpool though.
S-Clarke Posted 15 December, 2012 Posted 15 December, 2012 Ah brilliant, Wigan behind again - so we're out of the bottom 3 again.
Turkish Posted 15 December, 2012 Posted 15 December, 2012 Villas performance at Liverpool shows how utterly embarassing our 'stage fright' was at Anfield two weeks ago.
S-Clarke Posted 15 December, 2012 Posted 15 December, 2012 QPR now 2-0 up. Fulham really are dog**** away.
Matthew Le God Posted 15 December, 2012 Posted 15 December, 2012 Villas performance at Liverpool shows how utterly embarassing our 'stage fright' was at Anfield two weeks ago. Did Villa have stage fright at St Mary's?
OttawaSaint Posted 15 December, 2012 Posted 15 December, 2012 QPR now 2-0 up. Fulham really are dog**** away. ...another team along with Swansea and Norwich we should have beaten at St Mary's...
trousers Posted 15 December, 2012 Posted 15 December, 2012 Villas performance at Liverpool shows how utterly embarassing our 'stage fright' was at Anfield two weeks ago. Yep, because every team in the league performs at the same level each and every game...
Saint Fan CaM Posted 15 December, 2012 Posted 15 December, 2012 Villas performance at Liverpool shows how utterly embarassing our 'stage fright' was at Anfield two weeks ago. Got to agree with you there Turkeyman - real shame we didn't make the most of that opportunity. Where did we go wrong I wonder?
S-Clarke Posted 15 December, 2012 Posted 15 December, 2012 ...another team along with Swansea and Norwich we should have beaten at St Mary's... Would agree that we should have beaten Fulham and Swansea, but I thought a draw was fair in the Norwich game. They played pretty well that 2nd half, and could have even won it themselves. Certainly earned a draw.
Dig Dig Posted 15 December, 2012 Posted 15 December, 2012 Got to agree with you there Turkeyman - real shame we didn't make the most of that opportunity. Where did we go wrong I wonder? Cortese was in charge for that game
Turkish Posted 15 December, 2012 Posted 15 December, 2012 Did Villa have stage fright at St Mary's? What are you on about now?
Matthew Le God Posted 15 December, 2012 Posted 15 December, 2012 What are you on about now? If you harp on about Villa winning at Anfield today, we beat Villa very comfortably 4-1, what does that say about Villa?
Turkish Posted 15 December, 2012 Posted 15 December, 2012 Yep, because every team in the league performs at the same level each and every game... Lallana admitted the players got stage fright at Anfield. Embarassing that Villa can go there and win comfortably.
Turkish Posted 15 December, 2012 Posted 15 December, 2012 We beat Villa very comfortably 4-1, what does that say about Villa? They are winning 3-0 at Anfield. Thw same place our poor little soildiers got frightend playing at. What does that say about us?
Matthew Le God Posted 15 December, 2012 Posted 15 December, 2012 They are winning 3-0 at Anfield. What does that say about us? It says, don't base a season on one off games?
Turkish Posted 15 December, 2012 Posted 15 December, 2012 (edited) It says, don't base a season on one off games? Doesn't it also say Villa have more bottle than us? Afterall by our captains admission we were starstruck when we went to Anfield. How embarassing. Edited 15 December, 2012 by Turkish
Turkish Posted 15 December, 2012 Posted 15 December, 2012 If you harp on about Villa winning at Anfield today, we beat Villa very comfortably 4-1, what does that say about Villa? I'm not harping on about it. Merely making a very valid comment on th difference in attitude of the two sides. Keep justifying it though I'm sure you'll convince yourself that our 1-0 defeat wa a great result.
Matthew Le God Posted 15 December, 2012 Posted 15 December, 2012 Doesn't it also say Villa have more bottle than us? Afterall by our captains admission we were stars truck when we went to Anfield. Hel emabrassing. I asked you about Villa's dreadful performance at St Mary's.
Dalek2003 Posted 15 December, 2012 Posted 15 December, 2012 Would agree that we should have beaten Fulham and Swansea, but I thought a draw was fair in the Norwich game. They played pretty well that 2nd half, and could have even won it themselves. Certainly earned a draw. Agreed and those extra 4 points would add just a little more comfort to thingss. Anyway, up the canaries !
Turkish Posted 15 December, 2012 Posted 15 December, 2012 I asked you about Villa's dreadful performance at St Mary's. What does that have to do with them winning 3-0 at a ground our players were starstruck at two weeks ago?
