Simple a manager that has organised,self belief,confidence back to a squad that should be in the Top ten as we have been since our return to the championship.
A good manager makes all the difference. Pardew started it, but Adkins has carried us to a new level. Hope City carry on their good form (after 5.00 pm tomorrow)...you look a good bet to climb the table. Momentum is everything.
Simple a manager that has organised,a very very good set of players who have not finished outside the top ten since our return to the championship. The previous manager was a complete joke.
Jeses Christ! What is wrong with some City fans! We get a couple of half decent results and we think we can take on the world! Its gonna make no difference if we keep Lambert quiet! 4 of there top 5 have scored nearly as many as our top scorer! 1 player does not make a team, its these sorts of fans that would be calling for DM's head if loses tomorrow! I would be happy with anything other than a Saints win! I do however, think that it will be a great game of football tomorrow with to good passing sides. I will be putting a bet on tomorrow, Saints to be winning at half time, Draw at full time. COYR!!
Simple a manager that has organised,self belief,confidence back to a squad that should be in the Top ten as we have been since our return to the championship. Red Robin "should be in the top ten" says it all. its starting to sound like the Saints v Leeds thread on the first game.
If Saints are winning at half-time they go on to win the game 100% of time. Can't tell you how many games that's true for but it's a lot..someone will know. Saints fans are collecting stats at the moment.
Natch I think deep down, they know they have a tough tough game against a very very good city side, firing on all cylinders since del and doc arrived.
I did think similar earlier on, if we take a shoeing tomorrow then we'll be in for some stick on here. That said I think that the reason for the renewed optimism is borne out of our resurgent form and I don't think anyone is disrespecting Southampton as they are obviously a class act. City 5-0.
Im not a Saint fan, but its actually 100% Every time the Saints have scored first, they have gone on to win the game. Also, Saints have scored in every league game this season. Was listening to Talk Sport on my way to work this morning But it has to stop somewhere!
After a lifetime of suffering, Saints fans are only just starting to not expect the worse. It wasn't so long ago that when 3.0 up we started singing: You're going to win 4.3. Now, the team and fans are confident even when behind...mind you that hasn't happened a lot this season
I would have to agree RR I've actually got to sit this one out tomorrow because of work commitments and I'm pig sick about it It's gonna be a cracker and if we perform well and get a result then it will show how far we've come in such a short space of time.
It's currently 34 league games and counting, starting back on Saturday 20th February 2010. So quite simply, don't allow us to go in at HT with a lead!
