in all competitions it was 14 home games ago when we failed to win.

13 consecutive home wins, must be some saints record

Last home game we failed to win Saturday 29th January -home to Man Utd. yes January -we are now in September.

What a run - will come to an end sometime, hopefully not this weekend.
 
Forest are a decent side but in poor form; I hope it will be 2-0 at half time, and De Ridder get's a good second half run out and his name on the scoresheet.
 
Taking my girlfriend's 8 year old to this one and it'll be her first ever football game. As she lives in Pompey a decent performance and a good win is crucial!! Knowing my luck it'll be a 0-0 bore draw!
 
I think Martin will start, Hooiveld will have only had 5 training sessions or so

Davis
Richardson Fonte Martin Harding
De Ridder Cork Hammond Lallana
Lambert Connolly

SUBS: Bart, Hooiveld, Fox, Schneiderlin, Guly
 
Going for a home win - cannot see us keeping a clean sheet and I think Forest they will be set up defensively minded; 2-1 Saints - Connolly will get on the score sheet again and a midfielder gets the second; so lets go for Adam Lallanna.
 
3-1 Saints for me, as that seems to be our favourite scoreline over the last couple of seasons. As Forests defence is a bit of a shambles at the moment I think this is quite a plausible score line. COYR :)
