    ...far more likely to be the other way round - WH supporters to start booing if they are not 3-0 up after 10 minutes

    Do what Nigel tells you......we're all nervous wrecks, we'd panic the f**k out of them......NA will be totally focused and hopefully the team will be when they enter the bedlam which will be St Mary's tomorrow

    Say what you like about Coventry and they have been relegated to be fair, but.......how the **** did they get an elephant balancing on a football and then put a castle on it's back? Genius!

    The elephant arises from a wealthy person owning an elephant in old Coventry times and it was the talk of the town as nothing like it had been seen. Sad to see them relegated as Cov is a great city but must say the writing has been on the wall all season. Hopefully we can win tomorrow but let's not underestimate our opposition.

    So nervous cant take this! Bricking it. just hoping west ham go a goal or two down early (wishful thinking early) to settle all our nerves. Actually us going two up quickly will help even more haha

    Is that a Wyvern on the left and a Phoenix on the right, they may rise from the ashes perhaps?

    Hopefully the boys all are having sweet dreams about the roar of the crowd in a full stadium, and the chance to play in the PL. Hope they rest nice and peaceful. Don't forget the shooting boots tomorrow.

    Was fine till I tried to sleep. Having a cup of tea because well known that caffeine helps you sleep! Bet the players can't sleep either. Don't want it to be 0.0 at half time...need an early couple of goals to settle nerves. Just hope their goalie doesn't decide to have a worldie. COYR

    Nil nil at half time would be ok. nice platform to tease the spammers from and win the second half from.

    Nil nil at half time is better than losing, but would make for massive tension. Want at least 1 early goal, preferably two, and then to hear at half-time that West Ham are losing. Couldn't sleep and just on the excited side of the nervous/excited dial.

    Yes. Always wanted to and thought it was a way of making sure I got a ticket and I also thought it would be sorted by now. Has actually increased my nervousness. How am I supposed to eat! But at least we can hit the bar to celebrate afterwards!!!

    How is everyone feeling today then? Apart from sick with nerves as I guess most of us will be. Confident?

    I can see this game taking a while to settle due to the nerve factor, maybe 20 minutes or so until we get into our rhythm. I am super nervous and fairly worried about the game, because its football and anything can happen. But I know I'm not allowed to be pessimistic, so coming your way are a nice couple of stats:

    Saints Home record this season - W 15, D 4, L 3, F 45, A 18 Pts 49
    Coventry Away record this season - W 1, D 6, L 15, F 13, A 35 Pts 9

    We can do this! COYR

    Thanks for posting that, it does actually make me feel better. Its weird, one moment I'm totally confident, the next I'm doubled up with nerves. I'm pleased its an early kick-off, I just want it over now. If we win I think my overall emotion will be one of relief.

    Same, my mood is so up and down. I'd be confident but the unpredictability of sport worries me!
