Saints Vs Barnsley The Preview

Saints were one again handed another chance after West Ham failed to beat Watford only one result will do against Barnsley at St Mary's on Saturday

Saints draw with Ipswich on Tuesday almost felt like a defeat especially with Reading winning yet again, so having slipped up once at home this week there is absolutely no room to manoevre by dropping more points.

The blunt truth is that fortune will now favorite the brave, Saints now have to hold their nerve and show the sort of clinical approach to winning games that Reading have been doing in recent weeks, keep winning and leave our rivals with no margin for error has got to be our approach.

The key will be Nigel Adkins team selections, at times this season he has almost seemed to be spoiled for choice and unable to decide from a big squad, it's like he feels obliged to use the squad because he has it, akook back at our results though, show that our good runs are built on consistency, play the best side and don't tinker, know what the strengths of certain players and know their weakness,so as well

So let's get the tactics right, get the three points and take another step forward.
