  1. Weird how we all see things differently.

    i thought Lappin was anonymous apart from one shot in the first half, looked slow and ponderous. In the second half he looked a bit better but in general, no, he wouldn''t be in the first team if it was my call.

    Pattison was woeful and it''s easy to see why he''s not in the first 16. Leijer didn''t impress either.

    Carney looked off the pace in the first half but much better in the second before he went off.

    Jamie/Killen....both looked generally poor.

    As for our goal, I could have sworn it was Lappin that scored it and that the announcer on the PA had made an error - certainly everyone around us seemed to think the same. I see the official site has credited Jamie as well so maybe it was him - it was a good left-footed strike from an out-swinging corner.

    Bright spot for me was Corey Smith at right-back - one for the near-future?


  2. Desert Fox,

    I agree, the margin is more likely to be nearer 50 points than 45 - and the rest of your post sums the problem up neatly.

    If results go badly for them, there''s always the chance that Southampton will go into administration and take the 10-point deduction now, not next season.

    All in all, there''s a few too many games left to make accurate predictions yet....


  3. >Your forecast relies upon the following:

    1. The threshold for safety being much lower than it has for any other recent season.

    Actually, in the last 5 seasons the surviving team (and the points tally goes as follows):

    Coventry - 53

    Hull - 49 (could have survived on 43)

    QPR - 50 (could have survived on 43)

    Crewe - 50 (survived by goal diff)

    Gillingham - 51 (survived by goal diff)

    So 45 points COULD be enough...
