Why am I full of posion ? Because you dont like reading what i am saying ? I can assure you (not that i need to I am a Southampton fan through and through) , could you please back that up posion comment ?
 
Gomarching you have been on here more than me for the last couple of days but at least I'm being positive. You are of course fully entitled to your opinion but luckily 90% of us on here don't agree with you!

Total belief!! COYR!!
 
Thats fine , my point is I think we will stutter , I hope to God I am wrong but I can not shake that feeling , it really is as simple as that . Oh and the reason I have been on here an awful lot is because I have been off air and I used to never post but because of the old 606 some people have it in for me regardless of what I post , in the short the other side bar Meowth never really took to me .
 
I think the point is we have stuttered but it's not the first time and we came out of it then and will now. Just as possible that Reading and West Ham will wobble as well!
 
Unless it's catastrophic (losing FA Cup semi, for example) I usually talk myself out of things, but that's easier with 10 matches to go...not so easy with just three. I get a lot of pleasure from football on TV and internet discussions, but it has taken me till now to turn Sky back on. Couldn't bear to see Reading match or WHU game. I can now see that it is still in our own hands and we could win on Tuesday and be one step nearer the end, but doubt is setting in for the first time...not because we are worse than we were or incapable of winning, but because bad things happen and there is no time to put it right. Just hoping that works for WHU and Reading as well.

That is exactly me! It has taken until now (sun eve) to go to this forum and the Saints website. I don't know why, but this year has made me so obsessed with footie - thats after 30 years of going to games!

Maybe I should get myself drunk for a couple of weeks and then wake up with one hell of a hangover on Sunday 29th and ask the score?!

;)
 
I have followed Saints' fortunes since 1965, more off until they dropped to League 1when my appetite was reignited. From memory I don't think Saints have been involved in too many promotion scraps in that time - 1965/66, 1977/78, and then a big time lapse until 2010/11 and now 2011/12. Promotion scraps are quite novel for most Saints fans unlike Birmingham who have must have had at least half a dozen in the past decade given their yo-yoing! Even Reading are hardened campaigners at this level! If we win promotion that will be a fantastic achievement as we are not a club that is habitually involved. If it is the play-offs so be it. It is all a learning curve for players and supporters alike. And if it ends in tears, as Adkins alluded to in his interviews, it is part and parcel of the club's learning.
 
Ha ha , so you are telling me you only get nervous about things you can control ? I think it's normally the other way around . Advice like that is crap , so if your National side got to the world cup final you would not be nervous , or a match against them down the road ?
Are you a man without emotion ? The chicks don't dig that you know , they like a few tears etc etc blah blah blah

If England get to the final then complete amazement! Nervous no, because it is unexpected! But if the Irish get there I'll be as nervous as hell. More discussion on this issue in May so we'll discuss things then perhaps?
