    No clue. But there will be at least six games in front of us. But quite a few look very interesting. Toon today was a mess of massive proportions.

    Happy New Year fellow saints fans.

    We had the habit of winning the games that really mattered, pompey, Watford, Norwich, villa.

    Now we are just taking the p1ss. We beat who we want.

    COYR . I believe in Santa again.

    Ralph looked deflated a few weeks back.

    He now looks energized again as do the players.

    Appreciate all the hard work that has been going on behind the scenes that is showing on the pitch.

    Stephens and Ings for England.

    Whilst it has been a good few weeks for us, it can't distract that the squad needs trimming for a couple of new players to come in.

    Onwards and upwards.

    To illustrate how we've changed our attack to be more direct, here are the number of opposition defenders (not including the keeper) between Ings and the goal in our recent hot streak:

    Spurs: 1 (on his knees, 5 yards away).
    Palace: 0.
    Villa: 0 (scored from rebound), 1 (3 yards away, trying to play keeper ineffectually).
    Newcastle: 1 (trying in vain to block).
    Norwich: ? (from a set piece).
    Watford: 2 (though it was a tap-in).
    Arsenal: 1 (a complete non-factor).

    Absolutely not taking anything away from Ings; a lot of them were created through his touches and composure. But man, is it easier for a striker to get a good look at goal when you only have one guy to beat rather than eight.

    Glad I stayed up for that. Apparently we’re doing better?! Who would have thought it.
