UP THE ROAD TO READING.....

Can Saints bring back the 3 points?

Well my last 2 predictions were a 1- 1 draw and we won both so going for a draw again!

Similar to the pairing of Chelsea and Liverpool we really need 4 points from our next 2 games, this and W Ham at home. Ceratinly think we are playing well enough to beat Reading but they are no mugs at home and will be fired up for their first home game under Nigel so a point wont be a bad result and should not get into the mind set of chelsea and Liverpool fans that we have a god given right to win games, just have to turn up.

Sadly this is the type of game where we have always been likely to stumble. Hope this time we can maintain our aggressive attacking policy and make it three wins in three.

Terribly dangerous........ but I am feeling fairly confident that Saints can get a convincing win. I'll go for 0-3!!

Unless we get the 3 points I am I'll have the courage to come on here Saturday night........

2-0, that's good enough.

Agreed Pete, 2-0 is fine. And it could have been 3 as I predicted.....Ramirez should have had a couple, Rodrigues was unlucky to hit the bar, and Guly should have scored in added time.

(Mind you Reading might easily have scored 2 or 3.....)

I was a bit annoyed when the commentator on MOTD said that the game contained 'precious little quality football'.

Pleased to see that for the first time this season we have moved above West Ham, making us the highest placed of last year's 3 promoted sides. I know West Ham have a game tomorrow so have the chance of leap-frogging us again.....but hopefully they'll not get anything from their Liverpool match.

Well a key win and think I will continue to predict saints to draw if it means that in fact saints win. Didnt see the game on tv as was travelling to Bristol but managed to get Sky updates on my phone. yet again rodrigues seems to have been the best player and he really is hitting a rich vein of form and the link play with Rickie is really beginning to show.

W Ham drew today so we stay above them but they have a game in hand but if we can beat next saturday will put us 3 points ahead. I to would like to finish above fat sam. Bearing in mind mid november they were 7th and we were 19th, 11 points behind quite nice if we can stay above them.

And West Ham's game in hand is against Man U so hopefully they'll struggle in that.

A good result, 3 wins in a row and, barring anything really stupid happening in the next 6 games, we are almost safe.

QPR result was hilarious, Arry was gutted, and looked like a broken man on MOTD2 last night. Couldn't happen to a nicer fella.

was round my mates house as he had a few people around and were getting ready to have to put up with him mouthing off how wodnerful he was , best result ever with 10 men and for sure going to stay up. Then saw the free kick go in and me and mate cheered out loud, it was so good to see the ball go in then pan onto old saggy chops miserable face
