No it wouldn't unless they lose to Plymouth. Certainly possible, but at a guess the bookies would say they're far more likely to win and we're far more likely to lose. As things stand we've played the same number of games as them. So no, whatever the Southampton result we are not at worst one behind them. At worst we're four behind them.
We're still in a reasonable position because of the game in hand. We need to make that count. We also need to show a couple of teams a good hiding between now and the end of the season to improve our GD as that could very well be the difference come the final whistle.
Well time to change that record….selfishly admit it’s the only away game I’ll be seeing this season. Tried for Huddersfield and Rotherham but didn’t get my arse in gear fast enough.
3rd and 4th look to be gone, but the race for 5th and 6th is going to go down to the wire. We have to be winning games against those in and around us to have any chance. West Brom is a must win, Soton is a "must not lose", IMO.
In terms of affecting my mood or positivity, I think our historical record there is far less relevant than the fact they're a very good side and we don't tend to beat many of those.
You make it sound like Connollys not had a chance cos he wasn't good enough not that he's been out injured. But getting him and Seri back will be a big boost and give more options
Fair enough. I really meant that players who haven't started for a while need to grab their chances when they can.
I liked Connolly's reaction at full time yesterday when he came on and gave Greaves a hug - he looked delighted.
Would be good too if it was the Christie of old we got back when he finally returns.
Think i heard he was fit again, or at least back to full training?

Amazing scenes yesterday..long may they continue. Whatever happens Tuesday night it’s obvious momentum is growing now throughout the City and beyond and without getting too carried away there really is no reason why we cannot be involved in battling for a play off spot. Might need a bit of luck here and there of course but belief is growing with every game now and when that happens teams suddenly find another gear.. The old saying of one game at a time seems the right one at the moment and I’d wager Rosenior feels he may yet be in with a big shout to deliver what the big Turk and thousands more craves.
Hold on tight…
UTT.

Brilliant to break that awful away record at Southampton. First win since 1951
Still think WBA is a must win to provide a bit of room between us and 7th. Last nights win did us now harm in achieving that.
WBA, PNE, Cov all "must not lose" games, although I don't think I've ever seen Rosie play for a draw... Need to pick up 6 points from Bham and Stoke.
I know it's an obvious statement to make, but after those 6, if we have taken 10+ then I'd say the playoffs are more then likely imo. The confidence it would breed would hopefully see us over the line. Anything less then 10 then I think it becomes a "next season" task
