Southampton v Doncaster - Match Thread

[Piebacca]

Don't understand the criticism of looking at other results, don't you care about how many points ahead of our rivals we are?

Obviously I do, but it just seems like every time West Ham score, you guys panic like the French Army.

Phew...just back from work. Bit worried with 0.0 at half-time, but as Jos says, don't be nervous. Just seen Ricky limping off in his socks...hope it's not bad.

They couldn't be allowed to pull away from the competition, if only by a couple points. 4th through 14th is absolutely mental. Leicester suddenly has a non-trivial chance at the playoffs again. Watford's only six points short, ffs.

Even Burnley in 16th could still get to the playoffs in theory!

 

[fran-MLs little camera]

Well done, Billy,

 

[Schad]

Nine points plus a staggering goal differential over third, and the two chasing clubs play each other on the weekend. The chickens have hatched, they are neatly arrayed.

We. Are. Going. Up.

if rickie is limping off in his socks- sounds like he got a kick rather than pulled a muscle

 

[TheSecondStain]

Doesnt look like we are going to win today. According to the o/s we haven't even had a shot on target!

Just came in and heard the last few minutes of extra time. I had complete confidence. Never in doubt. Well done Sharp. Well done Saints.

 

[SaintsFanAlex]

Hats off to Billy Sharp today he has certainly made me eat my words!

I am very happy to be proved wrong though and long may it continue!

We are Southampton were top of the league.

 

[tomw24]

We're going to be top when we kick off v Blackpool after at least one of Reading and West Ham drop points.

What did Sharp get booked for?

Celebration

 

[ChilcoSaint]

So we are back to a nice neat 2 points per game. just need to keep that up over the last few games. 4 wins, 2 draws and a loss will be plenty. I am very cautiously beginning to believe now!

Do You mean all you heard was the last few minutes of the whole game ?

Yeah. Sometimes I can't even be near a radio. Terrible isn't it..? Never mind, I'm happy Saints won.

Nigel being interviewed...
Adam Blackmore: What about Rickie..?
Nigel: He's got a little something around the pelvic area. He'll be fine for Saturday, so don't get into a panic about that.

Phew..! Thanks for that Nigel.

 

[Number 1 Jasper]

Yeah. Sometimes I can't even be near a radio. Terrible isn't it..? Never mind, I'm happy Saints won.

Fine .

But how can you have had complete confidence ?

Please let me know & let us share the lottery numbers

 

[Pelletron]

Showing some classic signs of grieving...

Denial - "Hopefully Soton will think they are already up as they are 9 pts above us, have a massive wobble, and we'll go up as champions with Redding."

Anger - "Le Tissier your comments have been noted and won't be forgotten you big nosed ****"

Hope - "Win at Peterboro and beat Reading and we might sneak it. "

Surely we all are?

Adkins: "Lambert had a slight issue in the pelvic region, always tough playing 3 in a week but not a worry at all for Saturday."
