Someone on SaintsWeb said they'd only sold block 22, and reckon there'll be around 200 of them.

That's mental if so. Block 22 is above the emergency exit so isn't even a full block.

Must be going back to L1 days to the last time we had such a small away support.

Be very Saints like to give them something to cheer.

Hartlepool & MK Dons spring to mind from those days.

Hell of a journey on a Tuesday night (when you can watch at home or in the pub)

I dont know about everyone else, but every game feels like the most important game of the season at the moment
Every game is a cup final
As each game comes along, many of us think "could this be the one that ends the run?" but even the teams in form have been dispatched. Eckert has taken an underperforming team into something that I didn't think they had in them. The long time Saints supporter in me can't get to a point of being confident of winning but we now have players who can come in and be effective, and a bench that can actually make a difference.
This run has turned me from being pretty indifferent about our next game into someone who can't wait for it. I'm loving these Saturday/Tuesday or Wednesday fixtures at the moment even if the players are getting knackered.

Seems like we both love wildlife and agree on the Saints - strange times all this agreement...

It’s inevitable that we will drop points at some point. Even during this unbeaten run, the draws have been against teams near the bottom. Could easily happen again tonight, or we could lose,…it will happen at some point. Be nice to make the most of our game in hand, and if we want to cling on to the miraculous 2nd place scenario we have to win every game, but if we don’t, we’re still in a very good place for the play offs.

Are we just worried about upsetting the football gods? I suspect that everyone is quietly (or not so quietly) confident about this one. I haven't checked the bookie's odds, but they normally deal in cold hard facts, so 14/2 for a Blackburn win would suggest that the people who make money out of predicting the future are not offering good odds on anything other than a win for Saints. Luckily, I'm not Tom, but I'll check back on here after I get home, and apologise if I've gone too far this time
