    See your point SB but there are no easy games. Week in and week out you get shock results. Let's prove it by beating Liverpool and Chelsea at home!

    Let's hope so, because next weekend it's QPR vs Sunderland and Reading vs Villa, and the following round of matches includes Villa vs QPR and Wigan vs Newcastle. So they can't all lose again.

    But with only a three point gap, even draws make a difference at this stage.

    And we don't need all of them to overtake us, to fall into the bottom three.

    Over the next two rounds of games, the some or all of the six sides around us will pick up some points. That is a fact. So unless we pick up some points ourselves, there is every chance that we will enter April in the bottom three. Thankfully, I've already braced myself! You wont be seeing any post-match negativity from me consequently.

    I note sure excited is the word I would use, but without any doubt for me, it is a game which constantly seems to produce goals and drama, and is worth watching. Unlike most games which get hyped up to the max, this one does usually deliver.

    I actually wrote "So of course, it'll be 0-0 now", but then I deleted it. I have faith in this fixture.

    Torn on this one...ex-Saints on both sides. Arsenal used to be my second team, but love Bale. Lots of goals please and a draw.

    Want Arsenal to win as I want Chelsea to finish outside the CL places.

    Will need to spend an hour with the fixtures calendar and a calculator to figure out what my rooting interests are for some of them.

    Reading/Villa draw. QPR loss to Sunderland to squash their burgeoning hopes.

    Then QPR v Villa draw. Defo want Wigan to lose, even if it means Newcastle win...unless we jump over Newcastle and we would then want another draw.

    Arsenal's defense getting shredded by pretty simple through-balls.

    Just flicked over from the athletics and caught the second goal...Arsenal really need to sort themselves out. I thought that Spurs shouldn't have got rid of Redknapp, but they are looking good at the moment.
