    Congratulations to Reading on their promotion, 46/51 points since January is an unbelievable return, it should be us joining you and we will run you all the way for the title!

    Bit of a dead rubber on Saturday for Doncaster. Bet Coventry are still in it at St. Mary's! (Hopefully we won't be, though!)

    On KUMB there seems to be the acceptance of the play-offs ...which is nice

    Never doubted for a moment....excuse me, my pants appear to be on fire.
    Well done to the team, especially 'If it's Tuesday it must be Jos' and Billy, well done to the fans, and well done to Nigel who has nearly got us over the line.

    Yes, Yes, Yes, Yes, Yes.

    Fantastic win, fantastic night.

    Let's go out there and wrap things up on Saturday (which would require a win - GD is still slightly too close to be confident that a draw will be enough. Not like the Plymouth/Walsall situation last season), before enjoying a party atmosphere the following weekend. And who knows, maybe even snatching the title from Reading's grasp.

    We are Southampton, We're (almost) Premier League.

    Boro will now ko against us on Saturday having literally just had their play-offs hopes ended (if Blackpool and Cardiff both win) or knowing that they most beat us (if Blackpool and/or Cardiff don't win).

    Thanks for that. You will definitely be up with us. West Ham shot their bolt tonight. You and us still have to fight it out for the title but thats just icing on the cake. Can't see you dropping any more points so it could be yours.

    Thanks again

    Its amazing the difference this win has made. After Saturday I was looking over our shoulders worrying West Ham would catch us. Now I am looking up thinking we can catch Reading and not thinking about third.

    I echo the congratulations to Reading. Unbelievable form this year.

    Massive day today that has turned out well.

    Also a big thanks to Bristol City for holding on to the point. Let's get the job done on Saturday and party like it's 1999 against Coventry!

    Great turn by Sharp for his 1st and great predatory instincts for the 2nd!

    Just home from work and very grateful to a couple of mates who kept me up to speed. Do we want to finish it at Boro, or wait until Coventry match? The former I hope.
