I really liked this article about how the top teams should not always have it their own way and that neutrals might be supporting the Saints as they come into the next run of hard games
Best. Season. Ever.

1st half was very frustrating, but a good and well deserved.

The food in the corporate box wasn't bad to be fair. I've eaten way too much though! Still here now.

hehe Not at all , I just admired the way that despite selling some good players, it hasn't affected them, infact its been the total opposite!

3 points more and 25 on the table with only 11 games gone. It is a dream and 3 league games without conceding a goal is brilliant. Enjoying the good play and victories and hope that we continue to play well and keep pushing the upper echelons of the league
Great for Shane to get off the mark

So is 4 on the spin 33% better ? biggrin

As I've already said, our defensive unit has been magnificent this season - calm, composed and very difficult to break down. Leicester with 0 (zero) shots on target today can hardly disagree with that.

Alternatively,

I have absolutely no sympathy for Liverpool.
They had a choice as a club.
They didn’t have to buy.
They had that choice.
Maybe Liverpool’s objectives have changed.
They were on course to be Premier League contenders,
I believe, but obviously, that has changed

Ok let's not get too big headed. Alot of reds will applaud your club and be made up that you are in the top 4.
Plenty of games left don't be getting ahead of yourself.

No one's getting ahead of themselves - as has already been posted, the principal aim remains getting to 40 points. Anything after that will be a bonus.

But I see nothing wrong at all in highlighting Rodgers' breathtaking arrogance, especially when, for now at least, it has turned around and bitten him squarely on the ar5e (yet again).

Really looking forward to the tests ahead of us in the next few weeks. 8 wins out of 11 is incredible and certainly not what I expected and we're not getting ahead of ourselves for sure. What is exciting is that the Saints are playing as a team and that we are a squad with options. We all know that tough games are to come and that things might not carry on as well as they have been, but "dare to dream"

It would be great for the premier league if Saints were to remain near the top and infiltrate the top 6 and remarkable if we did make top 4. I think neutrals would support us and lets hope that we quit ourselves well in the next few games
