    In all my years as a fan, I have never had such little confidence of the competence of the officials. If they cock it up tonight, I'm going to lose my rag and become a ref stalker.......

    Hmm. You have to consider adding to your pain with a something nil Swansea win!

    I don't think I've ever been as nervous before and there's still over 6 hours to go til the match starts!! My Swans supporting friend who's giving me a lift tonight us convinced that we're going to win - this is what he e-mailed me earlier: "I can’t see us beating you or even getting a draw, our squad is useless to say the least and I’m already resigned to watching the Championship next year and League 1 the next." I'm not convinced...

    It's going to be an ugly match and I really hope that the people standing around me don't mind me grabbing them and hiding my face when Swans get close to goal :emoticon-0107-sweat

    I'd stick £50 on it and £25 on a score draw. That way you cover all negative outcomes and are guaranteed £25, even if we win!!

    Saints brought in Mark Hughes too late , Southampton needs some divine intervention. The result at Goodison Park was not helpful also.

    I have had 3 consecutive bad nights sleep....Saints have to win or I will have some kind of breakdown.<wah>

    Apparently Saints fans have been giving the Marriott bad reviews on Trip Advisor....well you have to do something while we wait to win. Can't see them so presumably they are waiting for clearance...or have been blocked. I think it does need to be pointed out that there is some hygiene issue at the hotel, so no Premier League football player can be risked. Doesn't matter about ordinary folk because there are a lot of them....but they need warning. :)

    If only Saints had as many points on the board as I have candles on my cake, I wouldn't need to make a wish.

    Not sure I’ll get much work done today. Already told them I’m leaving early. No way I can be at work while the game is on. A real 6 pointer. Nerves frazzled already with hours left to go.

    I have just posted a review pointing out their hygiene issue and the fact they are selective who they inform. Prepared to be ticked off by Trip Advisor, but hey, ho.

    I wish I was in Swansea with a match ticket and some tunes on my phone so I could focus.
    2.15 PM is a good time to have that first pre match beer.
    Is anyone on here now actually in Swansea?
    This is a like a horror version of a Wembley final - like the complete opposite in terms of prestige but much more important and just sick sick sick.
    The whole thing is just unbearable

    This has to be the match where Shane shanks the winner in off his shin.
