The only way we lose this is if we play very poorly. Which is possible, admittedly. But the performances by and large haven't been terrible. Play like we did against Chelsea, Liverpool, Wolves in the Cup, Villa, first halves against Leeds and Wolves, we win. Unless Sheffield United have an absolute stormer. But that's unlikely.
We're the only PL teams playing at 3pm on Saturday. Those neutrals are going to have to watch us whether they like it or not!
However, even if it ends up as a 7-6 victory for us, with a JWP free kick winning the game in the 99th minute, after a stoppage caused by an alien spacecraft, we'd STILL be last on MoTD.
So was mine, yet there was this wretched voice in my head that kept whispering certain unsettling thoughts usually starting with 'remember this is the Saints, so.....etc!'
Of course they would get a lovely confidence boosting backs against the wall win with 10 men against an in form side just before playing us
Yeah, that voice is always there It’s the same voice which, when I try something I’m unsure about, whispers “you’re gonna **** this up you mug”! I tend to ignore it until I’m surrounded by loose wires, rubble, or the wreckage of another season.
I don’t do melt downs but if we are 3 up in the 90th minute I won’t be happy with the point we end up with.
