Yeah, you would have thought that a 4-0 win would bring optimism, but i would still be happy with a score/scoreless draw.
Great thread - I was looking forward to decent banter again with Saints fans (our board has been nearly ruined recently by fans from 2 clubs who will not be named) and this thread hasn't let me down. I can't see us really challenging you (for the reasons mentioned by other Foxes fans), but just hope our FAC win over the trees gives a few players that bit of confidence they obviously need. The Foxes do typically play better against the top clubs though, so we live in hope (however forlorn that hope seems to most of us at the minute!) Barwell Fox's "4-0-2" cracked me up ('cause it's completely true!)
Yeah the saints fans are a decent bunch. You can have proper banter and nothing is taken too serious. After today im going for a 1-1 draw on monday
I think West Ham will win with a low score (either 1 or 2 nil), but annoyingly we'll drop to second for a while....That's wrong, it's the principal of the thing
Well we needed a lift and I just hope the same Leicester team turns up and plays well! No shame if we lose to Southampton but not in the Barnsley fashion
NP is alot like this as well, score 1, maybe 2, and defend like hell for the 3 points. I don't think he was expecting 4-0 last night, but forest just rolled over.
Im not going to get carried away with a win against a very poor side. Also all of our goals came from Mr Beckford who has been struggling (out of poor luck, poor service or combination of the 2) so im still fearful of our chances. The Yak went through drought patches and then hit a hatrick....i really cant see a result here! But i can expect a great game of football by two sides who like to play the game
Saints had better concetrate the whole 90/5 minutes after seeing them demolish 11 man Forest last night.
If we are on song we will give you a good game. Not yet convinced we are finished with the poor run of results after beating to poor teams. Could be a good game.
Looking at the latest Player vids, the only obvious absentee is Jose Fonte, his injury must be worse than we thought.
