Don't think we've had one of these for a while. We've lost our last 6 league matches so how many points will we get from the upcoming 6: Chelsea (H) Leeds (A) Everton (A) Sheffield United (A) Man City (A) Brighton (H) Four away matches in a row is quite unusual! I'll go for 8 points from that lot.
Chelsea (H) 1-4 L Leeds (A) 3-1 L Everton (A) 1-1 D Sheffield United (A) 0-1 W Man City (A) 17 -0 L Brighton (H) 3-1 W 7 Points but a crap goal difference
-4 points after retrospective reviews from VAR after the games have ended. It doesn't matter now what the result is after 90 mins, VAR can reach into our dreams every night.
I think the next 3 games will shape the season. If teams above or below outpoint us by say, 6 points, then our real headache begins. But we're The Saints, Ralph is still here and as long as we stay synced points wise, with those around us, then happy days!
Chelsea - L Leeds - D Everton - L Sheffield United - W Man City - L Brighton - D Although the caveat to the Leeds game is that absolutely anything could happen - so draw made sense to me
Optimism gone a bit flat...luckily we got points early. Now need a top up . I would just like a halt to these losses...2 wins or a win and 2 draws would be, not exactly acceptable, but at least tolerable.
I like that Fran. Tolerable. I wish I’d though of that for all these seasons I’ve read children screaming on here, “That’s not acceptable.” Tolerable. Its the word missing from my last post on the match thread. I’ll go and edit it now. Thanks.
Chelsea (H) L Leeds (A) D Everton (A) L Sheffield United (A) W Man City (A) L Brighton (H) W 7 points. That’s optimistic given current form
A point today. Win the next three. Won’t matter then when we play City, who will hopefully be experiencing a minor dip in form by then. Lose to Brighton.
Well, clearly i smoked too much last night and have run out EDIT - wrong thread, think i said this morning we’d spunk one at Goodson, but did it in the Chelsea thread. Teach me to wake up at 5am...
