saint lard Posted 8 May, 2018 Posted 8 May, 2018 Though there was still a remarkable scene as #SaintsFC told they would have to wait on the bus for circa 25 mins as the Swansea bus unloaded. Mark Hughes just told driver to stop and led the players up to the ground on foot Adam Leitch. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
Toadhall Saint Posted 8 May, 2018 Posted 8 May, 2018 I'd been feeling calm and pragmatic up until 5 minutes ago. Now I feel as nervous and sick as ****! Maybe one day I'll listen to my other self when they tell me this football malarkey is only a game and that relegation isn't the end of the world...

wadesmith Posted 8 May, 2018 Posted 8 May, 2018 We are going to smash this. The momentum is with us. Early goal, crowd get disheartened, I've actually never felt this confident. See you all at 21.45 with a drink in my hand!
musesaint Posted 8 May, 2018 Posted 8 May, 2018 As Churchill and Fergie once said .....” Never in the field of human football have so many bums been so squeaky for so few” .....

ooh it's a corner Posted 8 May, 2018 Posted 8 May, 2018 School-boy error. I'm not meant to be drinking during the week, but have two bottles of Doombar looking at me. Two. Just two. I'm going to open one, but with the nerves being so high, they'll both be long gone before kick off. So, beer run now? Beer run after the first? Or watch it after two and only two? Or head to the pub and watch it there? #firstworldproblems
Pamplemousse Posted 8 May, 2018 Posted 8 May, 2018 Hughes will get them bang up for this. If only we'd appointed him a month or two earlier.
Halo Stickman Posted 8 May, 2018 Posted 8 May, 2018 It's been several years since I felt this uptight before a match. Probably Coventry last match of the season 2012.
saint si Posted 8 May, 2018 Posted 8 May, 2018 Just to out pedant your pedanting, if they get a 9 goal swing it's more than likely they'll also overtake our goal total (which is only 2 better at the moment). it's 9 better. Will be at least 10 better if we win tonight.
Dalek2003 Posted 8 May, 2018 Posted 8 May, 2018 Hughes will get them bang up for this. If only we'd appointed him a month or two earlier. Exactly. I hope we win and get out of the mess. Then, deal with Les and the other cronies.
Shance Posted 8 May, 2018 Posted 8 May, 2018 FFS. Lemina carrying an injury from the Everton game then. There's still enough there to do this and hopefully Redmond brings his A game. He's talked up Hughes and he's clearly having an affect on our attacking players.
Pamplemousse Posted 8 May, 2018 Posted 8 May, 2018 Three strikers on the bench, could be 5-0-5 at the end of the game if we need a late couple of goals!!
Batman Posted 8 May, 2018 Posted 8 May, 2018 Lord Duckhunter He did exactly what you suggested Left himself with a very option we have of getting goals

Dark Munster Posted 8 May, 2018 Posted 8 May, 2018 I done all the Saints/Swansea/Huddersfield/WBA permutations, with the aid of my computer. In summary what I found: a win today is better than a draw, and a draw is better than a defeat.
LaptopSaint Posted 8 May, 2018 Posted 8 May, 2018 The right team and three CFs on the bench if we need to go kitchen sink. COYR!
OttawaSaint Posted 8 May, 2018 Posted 8 May, 2018 Grab this opportunity lads. You've been labelled clueless and lazy all season. Now is the time to erase those labels and go down in Saints folklore. Sprint through the finish line, no easing up until after the final whistle. Leave it all out there! COME ON SAINTS!!!!
OttawaSaint Posted 8 May, 2018 Posted 8 May, 2018 Anyone found a reliable stream yet? There's a steam of sweat coming from my brow, not sure how reliable it is. ****ing bricking it!
beatlesaint Posted 8 May, 2018 Posted 8 May, 2018 I’m desperately hoping the less than warm welcome to Swansea that the club have received backfires big time. I believe that would be called Karma ! Cheating ****ers
Dark Munster Posted 8 May, 2018 Posted 8 May, 2018 it's 9 better. Will be at least 10 better if we win tonight. Currently 7 better (if the BBC have it right). 9 better if we win by 1 today.

suewhistle Posted 8 May, 2018 Posted 8 May, 2018 Just changing to go down the pub. Getting there earlier than normal in case for some unlikely reason they're not showing it and I have to dash to another. Oh gawd, two pints a half, one at half time and at the end?.. Never been so nervous. Better put another £20 in my pocket.
Matthew Le God Posted 8 May, 2018 Posted 8 May, 2018 What formation is that we're playing? 5-4-1? The same we used vs Bournemouth probably... 3-4-2-1 McCarthy Bednarek Stephens Hoedt Cedric Hojbjerg Romeu Bertrand Tadic Redmond Austin
Shance Posted 8 May, 2018 Posted 8 May, 2018 Can anyone post the Swansea team? If they are going 5 at the back then we have a chance according to their fans!
Pamplemousse Posted 8 May, 2018 Posted 8 May, 2018 Haha, Mark Hughes "the Marriott in Swansea is one of the poorest hotels we have to stay at"
Saint Fan CaM Posted 8 May, 2018 Posted 8 May, 2018 Have felt OK until today, largely because I’ve been convinced we had no hope of staying up, but here we are...fate in our hands and just this win to stay up. Now I’m feeling very, very nervous...excited at the prospect of Saints doing us proud, but equally petrified that something terrible will go wrong and we’ll be humiliated in defeat. Today of all days, we need to dominate the game, not give them an inch and stuff ‘em. COYFR!!!
Placey Posted 8 May, 2018 Posted 8 May, 2018 Haha, Mark Hughes "the Marriott in Swansea is one of the poorest hotels we have to stay at" I loved that too. He looks confident and I’m feeling a little more confident now!
Saints foreva Posted 8 May, 2018 Posted 8 May, 2018 Just can't be confident in that back three keeping a clean sheet. C'mon Saints, just win somehow.
whelk Posted 8 May, 2018 Posted 8 May, 2018 Just can't be confident in that back three keeping a clean sheet. C'mon Saints, just win somehow. Feel better that Tammy Abraham is on the bench
Cabrone Posted 8 May, 2018 Posted 8 May, 2018 Feels to me like that playoff game at Derby 11 years ago, this is pretty much a playoff final for us. Time for Charlie to step up to the plate and do the business like Rasiak did that night. Swansea are there for the taking.
Dell68 Posted 8 May, 2018 Posted 8 May, 2018 I loved that too. He looks confident and I’m feeling a little more confident now! Sparky takes no nonsense that's for sure. Very nervous up here in Scotland but the lineup looks good and quietly confident that all will be well - we are certainly due a break ! Come on Saints !
