    It's Saints last game of the season and we're expecting a hat full of goals from the team. Stoke are on their holibops and have decided that they will go to Lepe Beach instead of the match so they will be sending along the players from the Dog and Duck in Stoke. They are all very excited.

    The goal fest at St Marys has got the fans in a frenzy of excitement and they are determined to give the team a good send off for the summer. OWTS will be sung for the whole 90 minutes and every shot will be roundly applauded. Once we've got the ball back from outside the ground the excitement will continue.

    I seem to have mislaid the recent result details but I'm sure the good work will continue cementing our 8th place finish.

    Referee: Lee Probert
    Assistants: M McDonough, S Massey-Ellis
    Fourth Official: J Linington

    (Fran has deserted us so can't do this one. If it all goes wrong blame her. :))

    Southampton v Stoke

    Southampton are guaranteed a top-half finish, which underlines that they have had another very good season.

    Stoke's form has been heading in a downhill direction for a while now but the nature of the last day of the season always throws up some unexpected results, and I think this game will provide one of them.

    Lawro's prediction: 1-2

    Did a Saints player ever break Lawro's leg?

    I predict (and I'm very good at predictions) that Charlie will start and will score!

    We're in trouble.......

    Southampton haven't scored in a long time but they had enough chances against Man Utd with Sergio Romero very good in goal. I have to give the win to Southampton, I thought they were very unlucky on Wednesday night. 3-1

    "Saints Beat Stoke in Seven Goal Thriller" is not a headline I expect to see again for the rest of my life.

    So it will probably happen on Sunday.

    Shane Long has a fractured foot so will be out for a long time, good job it is at the end of the Season, it will keep the vultures away.

    Did it happen after the penalty miss? If so, I suspect the culprit may have the initials JWP.
