So, never mind our game against Bristol City, the real make or break game is up the road at London Road, Peterborough. Southampton HAVE to drop points for us to catch them, and unless they do, our games are about as important as pre-season friendlies - because the season would then start with the play offs.
Most people will have ear marked the Boro game as Southampton's most likely banana skin but I fancy them to draw that one, so we need Posh to steal a point tonight. Should Southampton draw the next two and we win both, we would go into the last game a point ahead. It's a big ask, but our tails are up, and the Saints will know Doctor Evil is on their tails. It would be unjust if they missed out but that will cause them to sweat all the more. Peterborough beat Reading, if they could do us a favour by beating Southampton we should bung them a million as a thank you.
Of course we still have to beat Bristol City and that won't be easy but...well we can dream for a couple of hours at least!
I reckon, we need Peterbourough to steal at least two points. Thank God it is not possible to still just one!

ReplyDeleteI can't believe it HF! I agree with everything you say in this post. Posh are are strange, tricky little team so who knows. COYI (and the Posh) :)

ReplyDeleteSteady on Anony-mouse, you'll be trying to put your tongue down my throat before we know it! Everything crossed. Even my tonsils! And they were taken out when I was an infant!
. As I commented on an earlier post. Saints to beat P'boro, M'boro,and Coventry. 91 points - Champions.
ReplyDeleteReading to beat Forest and Palace, but lose to Brum. 91 points - second on goal difference.
You will finish third and win playoffs. The top three should always go up in my view. Just relax and enjoy your day out at Wembley
