Dibden Purlieu Saint Posted 10 March, 2009 Posted 10 March, 2009 Would have taken it before the game.
Windmill Arm 2 Posted 10 March, 2009 Posted 10 March, 2009 We didn't lose plenty more twists and turns in this season yet.
alpine_saint Posted 10 March, 2009 Posted 10 March, 2009 Not good enough. Too little, too late. Going down...
Micky Posted 10 March, 2009 Posted 10 March, 2009 Not good enough. We're going down without a doubt. Let's just hope that the Manager and Players don't think like that.....
saintjay77 Posted 10 March, 2009 Posted 10 March, 2009 Quick verdict on server performance? slowed down in the final few mins but no great shakes as it was more of a delay in refreshing than a T break.
stockbridge_saint Posted 10 March, 2009 Posted 10 March, 2009 Would have taken it before the game. no way! we need wins to stay in this league, how can you say you'd take a draw for a home game against a side not that far above us in the table?
Mole Posted 10 March, 2009 Posted 10 March, 2009 Quick verdict on server performance? Much better, but it did slow in the last 10-15 minutes. If this had been an away game i reckon it would have struggled.
Micky Posted 10 March, 2009 Posted 10 March, 2009 Quick verdict on server performance? Slowed in the last 10 mins for me Baj - other than that it was A1. Oh and working fine now again....
Baj Posted 10 March, 2009 Author Posted 10 March, 2009 Much better, but it did slow in the last 10-15 minutes. If this had been an away game i reckon it would have struggled. Hmm, ok, so an improvement but still not good enough
Greenridge Posted 10 March, 2009 Posted 10 March, 2009 Disappointing but not a disaster if some of the other games finish as they stand now. We've not lost ground on a few around us but 3 points would have been massive tonight.
Window Cleaner Posted 10 March, 2009 Posted 10 March, 2009 no way! we need wins to stay in this league, how can you say you'd take a draw for a home game against a side not that far above us in the table? We'll have to see how it goes on Saturday, especially with the Barnsley-Blackpool match. Not out of it yet but running out of games.
Mole Posted 10 March, 2009 Posted 10 March, 2009 Hmm, ok, so an improvement but still not good enough Correct.
Plumstead_Saint Posted 10 March, 2009 Posted 10 March, 2009 Gutted. Saturday is our last chance to show we might escape the drop IMO.
Mole Posted 10 March, 2009 Posted 10 March, 2009 What are you talking about. There's clearly a fight going on. Yeah amongst our rivals. Not having Saga early in the season cut us adrift and did the damage. Now we've simply shut the barn door with horse already bolted.
Plumstead_Saint Posted 10 March, 2009 Posted 10 March, 2009 Hmm, ok, so an improvement but still not good enough Yes, particularly when you compare number of users logged on at beginning of game and now. Definitely got slow again at the end. If it's an away game with everything to play for, i reckon it will seriously suffer. Thanks for trying things to sort it though
Dibden Purlieu Saint Posted 10 March, 2009 Posted 10 March, 2009 no way! we need wins to stay in this league, how can you say you'd take a draw for a home game against a side not that far above us in the table? But in excellent form. We do need wins yes, and I'm not saying I wouldn't have taken a win, but you have to be realistic, otherwise you end up looking like a ****.
badgerx16 Posted 10 March, 2009 Posted 10 March, 2009 Plymouth P 38 Pts 43 B'Pool P 38 Pts 43 Barnsley P35 Pts 42 Forest P 38 Pts 41 Norwich P38 Pts 39 Saints P 37 Pts 38 Charlton P37 Pts 28 Reading v Charlton pending
Amesbury Saint Posted 10 March, 2009 Posted 10 March, 2009 if all other things stay the same and we win our game in hand, we stay up.
swastika eyes Posted 10 March, 2009 Posted 10 March, 2009 Quick verdict on server performance? We just threw away 2 points and you want to know about the effing server performance ffs !
Mole Posted 10 March, 2009 Posted 10 March, 2009 Baj you could ban registerd users during games i suppose, if you've got no money to pay for an upgrade at least look after your paying customers (and get a few more quid by encouraging registered members to join up to pay to make things better). This would be a bold decision, but a prudent one IMHO.
Saint Matty 76 Posted 10 March, 2009 Posted 10 March, 2009 Not good enough. We're going down without a doubt. ********, win the next game and you'll think we're staying up.
Ivan Katalinic's 'tache Posted 10 March, 2009 Posted 10 March, 2009 Could be a crucial point; could be a crucial 2 points lost. Having done the BBC predictor, I've seen that a lot of the teams around us are due to play each other and will therefore take points off each other. Win on Saturday and things could look much better. 10 points from home games against Preston, Cardiff, Derby & QPR would be a reasonable return.
Dibden Purlieu Saint Posted 10 March, 2009 Posted 10 March, 2009 ********, win the next game and you'll think we're staying up. Stanley will never think that, he doesn't support us.
stockbridge_saint Posted 10 March, 2009 Posted 10 March, 2009 But in excellent form. We do need wins yes, and I'm not saying I wouldn't have taken a win, but you have to be realistic, otherwise you end up looking like a **** a game is a game, and i'm always hoping for a win. look at our record this season, we've beaten many of the top teams but lost loads of the relegation 6 pointers, even against teams in poor form.
Saint_Mabes Posted 10 March, 2009 Posted 10 March, 2009 OMG that looks horrific!! I agree with Plumstead then - Sat is our last chance to show what we got.
tisspahars Posted 10 March, 2009 Posted 10 March, 2009 Not good enough. We're going down without a doubt. I suggest you get yourself over to Betfair where the market makes it about 50/50 - i'm sure you know better though...
badgerx16 Posted 10 March, 2009 Posted 10 March, 2009 Guess that makes the QPR game the most definite MUST WIN game;Saints need some confidence coming up to Bloomfield Road, as the Tangerines are showing a bit of grit, ( or is it sand ? ), and it would be better knowing that a draw there is good enough to at least keep things interesting. Going into the game when losing could put them 8 points above us would really start closing our chances of escaping.
saintjay77 Posted 10 March, 2009 Posted 10 March, 2009 ********, win the next game and you'll think we're staying up. in fact if we win the next game stanley prolly wont post as it will go against his going down menatlity
Mole Posted 10 March, 2009 Posted 10 March, 2009 ********, win the next game and you'll think we're staying up. Looking at the table below things aren't as bad as i first thought they would be (listening to results coming in). We shall see, but at the minute i think we're more likely to go down than stay up. Plymouth P 38 Pts 43 B'Pool P 38 Pts 43 Barnsley P35 Pts 42 Forest P 38 Pts 41 Norwich P38 Pts 39 Saints P 37 Pts 38 Charlton P37 Pts 28 Reading v Charlton pending
badgerx16 Posted 10 March, 2009 Posted 10 March, 2009 if all other things stay the same and we win our game in hand, we stay up. Not if we only make up 2 goals on Forest we don't.
Mole Posted 10 March, 2009 Posted 10 March, 2009 Not having Saga (and others) may have saved us -10 points. 10/15 points in the last 5 games does not suggest the barn door has shut.... I don't think you understand the saying.
stockbridge_saint Posted 10 March, 2009 Posted 10 March, 2009 stanley, the way you talk one would think it's the penultimate game of the season. a lot can and will change between now and the end of the season.
krissyboy31 Posted 10 March, 2009 Posted 10 March, 2009 Just seen the Derby goal. The defence just stopped!
aintforever Posted 10 March, 2009 Posted 10 March, 2009 You cant help thinking today we have blown our chance of stayng up. Most of those around us had harder fixtures yet we have lost ground when we should have been getting our noses in front. It's definitely win or bust Saturday now.
badgerx16 Posted 10 March, 2009 Posted 10 March, 2009 Sorry chaps, my bad - in the table Barnsley should only have 40 pts. Plymouth P 38 Pts 43 B'Pool P 38 Pts 43 Forest P 38 Pts 41 Barnsley P35 Pts 40 Norwich P38 Pts 39 Saints P 37 Pts 38 Charlton P37 Pts 28
brmbrm Posted 10 March, 2009 Posted 10 March, 2009 Crap siht ******. We started off tonight needing 4 or 5 wins from 10 games and now need 4 or 5 from 9, with the relatively-easy Derby-at-home game gone. Anyone who thinks a point is anywhere near a good results ought to realise we need at least 1.5 points per game to stay up: at the very best, this is a loss of 0.5 points against the target, against a bad team in this league. Bournemouth good news I think; no real love for them but getting pinged for admin is tough. Could be us any time.
redstripe Posted 10 March, 2009 Posted 10 March, 2009 good result against the inform side, we will get 3 points this weekend and then we play 3 sides who are down here with us - 6 pointers these are winnable
Marino Posted 10 March, 2009 Posted 10 March, 2009 It will go down to the wire again - and again we will stay up.
AwaySaint1 Posted 10 March, 2009 Posted 10 March, 2009 The result will do the players good. A win would of put us on 40 points and the players would of relaxed more after a win.
badgerx16 Posted 10 March, 2009 Posted 10 March, 2009 good result against the inform side, we will get 3 points this weekend and then we play 3 sides who are down here with us - 6 pointers these are winnable As long as we concentrate in defence, and keep the lead when ( and if ) we get it. Games last 90 minutes, but we all too often lose interest in the last 10 - 15 minutes.
Plumstead_Saint Posted 10 March, 2009 Posted 10 March, 2009 It will go down to the wire again - and again we will stay up. You may be right...... .....but I'm not sure my heart will cope
