3am here and no chance of me sleeping either . Can't get the beers in as I have to drop family at airport later this morning. But loving the sober Saints buzz. |  |

| Saints were as brilliant on 03:28 - Apr 5 with 3712 views | NYC_Saint | Missed watching the game on tv because of a family emergency. Was a lovely surprise when Mrs NYC_Saint was all good that I saw are in the semis. Am I correct in thinking that if all the other semi finalists qualify for Europe, we get the FA Cup ticket? Or is it just if you lose the final to another Europe bound team? Whatever, having beaten one of the best teams in Europe if we go on to beat wrexham on Tuesday I reckon it's not totally out there we could be in with a shot of second place (again) and automatic promotion.... Happy Easter or Passover fellow Saints fans. |  | |  |

I certainly got a speck of dust in my eye watching those scenes at the end. Glad Mrs Eric was in the kitchen ๐ |  | |  |

| Saints were as brilliant on 09:02 - Apr 5 with 3365 views | A1079 | That is a match, a performance, an atmosphere that will live long in what remains of my memory. I still feel drunk on it and I didn't even have any alcohol. When I look back earlier in the season and last season and I saw a club, a team, etc that seemed lost and without direction to where we are currently. What Eckert has done has not cost anything - he has instilled team spirit. They may not all be good all of the time but they work for each other now in a way they have not done so for so long. The atmosphere and support last night. Unbelievable. No need to write a long tome of the game. It was just a perfect night at St Marys and for all associated with Saints. |  | |  |
| Saints were as brilliant on 09:06 - Apr 5 with 3357 views | shotters | Have to admit I came to the match hoping we'd make Arsenal work for the win and not embarrass ourselves When they equalised I expected them to go on and win But we re-grouped and deservedly got the win. Every player contributed to that, the substitutions we the right choices at the right time. Even Nathan Wood, a player I've never really rated was superb, quite the turnaround from November and him telling fans to f*ck off after the Preston game Just a brilliant performance on a night that will stay long in the memory |  |

My only fear about Wrexham is how much this will have taken out of the team physically and emotionally and we just don't turn up. Following the Fulham game we were as bad as we could be against WBA and were lucky to come away with a draw. We can't afford a performance like that against Wrexham if we want to be in the play offs. I know that sounds negative after last night but you see it all the time. Teams that pull a performance out of the bag against a top side only to slump in the next game. |  | |  |

That's the fear, but I liked Tondas interview, his feet are firmly planted in the ground, he was very calm and said the team can celebrate tonight but its back to work tomorrow. We take every game step by step and we are focused on the next game. He's brilliant, keep calm and carry on. |  |

| Saints were as brilliant on 11:50 - Apr 5 with 3008 views | GRIM | You're right Grumps. And it wasnt one of those flukey FA Cup results. We out thought & out fought The Gunners, we thoroughly deserved to win. But how did Ben White get through the game without a booking, he constantly committed fouls & gave away free kicks. Ryan Manning commits just one foul & gets booked, meaning he can't play at Wembley, that's tough for him to take. |  | |  |

As Brudders has said, Tonda has his feet firmly on the ground and I'll keep faith in him as I'm sure he will with the players. He may well have learnt from the West Brom game and rub that in to them |  |

You have to win it to qualify for Europe. If the winner has already qualified then the place goes to the league which is how we qualified for Europe in 2015. |  | |  |
