An atmosphere to rival that tomorrow night would do me. Even Strachan, notoriously hard to please when it came to support from the fans, said we were good that day. |
| Forum Thread | Pyros / Drums etc. on Friday at 13:17 14 May 2024
Is everybody on here completely against this? Are we just all too old on here? I personally quite like the Legia Warsaw approach of going ridiculously over the top with flares in the ground. But that will obviously never happen over here. The pyros thing by the Ted Bates statue. Yeah, fine if loads turn up, but it's going to be sh1t if it's just a couple of dozen nippers, and we'll be a laughing stock. Do not want drums, clappers or any of that sh1t in the ground. Just pure loud noise from fans' mouths from the moment the players walk out until the final whistle. Doesn't need to be singing, just be loud. It's not that hard. Nobody mucking about on phones during the game. That'll do me. |
| Forum Thread | Play-offs - physical approach and shithousery at 12:11 10 May 2024
God knows why, but I notice the Echo have today been re-living the horrors of the 2007 play-off defeat to Derby. In addition to remembering:- - the rain at Derby - our away fans being superb - Leon Best being a disaster - Derby's fans being arseholes my main memory was the thuggishness of Derby on the pitch, kicking Bale and Kenwyne Jones out of the tie in the first leg, much of their dirty stuff going unnoticed by officials. I think we have to be massively prepared for more of the same against West Brom. Corboran is a wily character, and he will know that their best chance of beating us is to bully and initimidate us, and to really be in our faces. Set pieces will also be a big tactic for them, monster long throws etc etc. If we don't stand up to all of this, it may very possibly not end well for us. |

He played for Barcelona, him. Astonishing. Easily Leeds’ worst player. Just hope they keep him in the team for the play-offs. |

If memory serves, this lot had a half-decent keeper…..

| Forum Thread | Crowd of less than 25,000 looming for play-off semi home leg at 09:16 28 Apr 2024
Unless the Club do something bold with pricing (£15 or less). The play-offs were always my favourite week of the season to watch games on TV (as a neutral); often so much excitement in games with big atmospheres. However, the feeling I get is that a lot of fans just want the season to end now, and extending it by another couple of weeks is just prolonging the angst. A real shame. |
| Forum Thread | Suspensions - play-offs at 08:40 27 Apr 2024
How does it work with suspensions? Do they roll over into the play-offs? Thinking of the implications of any 3-match bans for a straight red card today or next Saturday…..(or a red card next Saturday for 2 yellows). |

Bad news for us. We need Ipswich to finish 3rd and Norwich 6th. |

| Forum Thread | 61 goals conceded in the League this season at 14:16 24 Apr 2024
Four more goals conceded from our last two games against Stoke and Leeds, and we will surpass the figure of 64 conceded by Swansea last season. When we appointed Brighton Buddha, common consensus seemed to be that we would not concede as many goals as Swansea as we had better players. I predict that if Brighton Buddha survives the summer, Colin Calderwood will be the sacrificial lamb. |
| Forum Thread | Flynn Downes and Ross Stewart at 13:49 24 Apr 2024
Increasingly thinking that the season is going to depend on these two both being fit for the play-offs. I imagine there may be one or two behind closed doors friendlies being hurriedly arranged.... |
| Forum Thread | Two games out of nine at 07:28 23 Apr 2024
Won by Saints without Flynn Downes in the team. And judging by Brighton Buddha’s comments in today’s Echo, we won’t be seeing Downes before the play-offs…… |
| Forum Thread | 5 things I noticed at Cardiff at 13:22 22 Apr 2024
1. Their locals are bellends. 2. Re point 1, saw a group of half a dozen nippers outside the Cambrian Tap pub on St. Mary Street doing slit-throat signs at anybody who they thought might be English. This was before 11.00am. Dibble moved them on. 3. Then stood outside the same bar, a local decided to acquaint himself with our group. Was drinking a whole bottle of Sauvignon Blanc (a good drop as well) at midday. 4. I got sunburnt stood outside that bar. 5. I don't want to go back there in a hurry. Have seen us play there 4 times in 3 different stadiums, we have lost every single time. |
