So can we possibly make it an incredible 11 wins from 12 games? Saturday brings the visit of Leicester and a game that everyone has down as a home banker. Leicester have made a slow start to life in the PL with just 9 points so far. They did manage that amazing 5-3 home win over Man U though so cant be taken too lightly. I have a lot of time for Nigel Pearson as a manager and they have a popular old boy Dean Hammond who may make the Leicester line -up.

Saints have a reasonable record against them although we did lose our last two meetings back in the Championship in 11/12 . We go into the game with our confidence sky-high and I can only see us slipping up if we start with the wrong attitude. I'm sure Ron wont let that happen though and it should hopefully be another home win.

I cant see Ron making many changes so expect


Fraser

Clyne Fonte Toby Bertrand

Morgan Cork Davis

Tadic Pelle Mane


Subs KD Maya Gardos Reed Vic Long Mayuka


I'm going for a 3-0 Saints victory.


COYR!!
 
Think we might see Vic come in for Corky for the first 60 mins or so.

Looking for a 2-0 win, but worried (as always!) we might get caught by a team sitting back and hitting us on the break.

I'll be in the Old Farmhouse before the game - Tom, can we meet up this time? I'll be in the "shed" at the back around 1.30!! FLT might join but it's unlikely ......

Not going sadly.
 
3-0 after a sticky start due to the Foxes parking the bus.
The Northampton Massive are bringing the girlies with them for my birthday weekend celebration at Ennio's and the lowest score the girls have seen us win by is 3-0...good omen!
 
I believe around this time of year in 83/84 season when we finished 2nd, we went on a run of 5 or 6 1-0 home wins in a row. I'd take that right now.
 
First game I'm flying over to this season so really looking forward to it. Look bankers on paper but it's a funny old game...Leicester will be defense and hard to break down but we should still win by one or two
 
Will be a tough match for sure as Leicester haven't won in a while, they will most likely sit back and defend and take the point. A quick early goal from us should do the trick!

My team: Forster, Clyne, Fonte, Alderweireld, Bertrand, Wanyama, Schneiderlin, Davis, Tadic, Mane, Pelle.
 
My 6 year old and I are going, though I'm a bad omen im afraid. Our last 2 games were a boring 0-0 draw with qpr and loss home to Cardiff! I teach in Leicester so we had better win or my students will be a nightmare!
 
Just vomited at the thought of having to see Nugent again this weekend. Talk about bursting my balloon.

Your students won't be a problem ... we'll hound you from in here :)
 
Simple, if we come to defend you will win! The only chance of us getting anything out of the match is if Nigel changes his system, we do have some use full wide players that if allowed to play could well make a game of it.
