Southampton Unity needed Now With Safety Assured

Those that predicted doom and gloom were disappointed after Sunday’s games saw Saints safe ahead of the last two games and the predicted Armageddon avoided, now that Saints will be in the Premier League for sure next season it is time for a new era and everyone singing from the same hymsheet.

With Leeds only able to draw with Brighton, saints can now celebrate their 10th consecutive season back in the top flight knowing that they will be playing Premier League football next season.

It is now irrevelant what has happened in the previous 36 games and to be blunt the next two games.

We now start a new era at St Mary’s with new owners and some of the financial restrictions loosened , ok we won’t be spending big money, but we can survive and prosper and move forward by fine tuning what we have done well for the past 10 years.

But we can’ achieve this if the fan base is divided and not behind the new owners, we have to give them a chance to fine tune things and show what they can do before we pass judgement.

We have to start to get a siege mentality and banish this culture of panicking every time something looks like going wrong.

We should all want success for the club, so it it not fair to say that we should start with a clean sheet and give everyone a chance.

The past is the past but the future is unwritten.

Leeds crush Norwich to cruise through to play-off final
With our recent form being what it was, I was expecting a nervy encounter, with Leeds struggling to get through the Norwich City defence, but how wrong I was! Suddenly we recovered the swagger we have shown for much of the season, and not a moment too soon.

Farke happy with the result after bore draw at Norwich
Many neutrals have complained on social media that yesterday’s game at Norwich City was a bit on the dull side, but the Leeds team wasn't set up to please them. For us it was the result that mattered, and it should leave us in a better position to get through to the final.

Norwich Awaydaze
For the second time this season we are visiting Norwich City, this time for the play-off game at high noon on Sunday, and the kick-off time is of course thanks to our good friends at Sky Sports. You’ll find Carrow Road is about a mile to the south-east of the city centre.

If we were ever going to have a final day miracle we needed a much better performance than this final day showing against Southampton, so now we have to endure the agony of the play-offs yet again.

Crisis, what Crisis?
As Mark Twain might have said, rumours of the death of our promotion hopes have been greatly exaggerated. Last night’s win at Middlesbrough was a hard watch towards the end, but the vital three points has got our campaign back on track.
