So, playoffs feature 3 sides who have not managed to win against Saints in the season. We could potentially play 2 sides who we have done the double over too.
That has to give us confidence.

Sooo...we are potentially going to be playing 2 teams that we have done the double over this season, what could go wrong?
Well last time we beat Leeds off the back of a **** run.....
Fantastic win. Good discipline and a good omen with two wins over Leeds who now have to face Norwich which could be tough.
Only second loss at home for Leeds. Good way to end regular season. Didn’t expect a win, or a good display. Vaguely interested again.
Many might think this game was meaningless. But that's the double over Leeds this season and that will give the team a boost. Finally a win before going into the playoffs. Leeds looked utterly deflated which was lovely to see. Hopefully no injuries for us, and the Lochness Drogba has arisen! UTS.
Has to be Jabbo
Totally. For sure, past performance doesn't ensure future performance - but Martin has to harness this fact, in getting the players ready for what comes next. It should be a big confidence booster that we have four wins and two draws from those six games.
Agreed. Rules is rules.
Loading. Form is temporary, class is permanent
(No offence Jabbo)
It's a bit like 'discussing' who will take a match-deciding penalty....
Time for a Poll (not Graham)
Leeds were seriously losing their rags in that game. They were starting to look very frustrated. That should suit us too.
Good, disciplined performance that. Turns out possession isn't in fact the be all and end all to win games.
First time in a while that I thought Martin got his subs right. Every change he made aligned to what I was thinking.
I hesitate to say it, but we must surely be favourites to win the playoffs. Not sure I want that sword of Damocles hanging over us.
Thoroughly enjoyed that game as I was expecting something similar to what happened at Leicester.
We actually defended quite well, (except for the few times we gave the ball away too easily) including the guys in front of the back line. Didn’t allow the FBs to get exposed by doubling up on Gnonto and Summerville and threw bodies in the way on the edge of the box. And no one is hanging out a leg for players to fall over in the box, which takes some discipline.
I would very much like us to start with that lineup and formation for the first playoff game and if it’s successful again then just stick with it.
Well done RM and the players.
