Saints Fans Are Optimistic About 2nd Half Of The Season

According to the first votes cast in our latest poll, the majority of Saints supporters think that the team can pull out of relegation trouble in the second half of the season, see the results and cast your own vote here.

The first votes cast in our latest poll "Can Saints Avoid Relegation" suggest that the majority of Saints supporters feel that the club can pull clear in the New Year.

So far 18% feel that we can do it with ease and 48% are confident that we can do it but feel that it might be another tough call.

In contrast 29% feel that we will fall just short of safety come the final day and 5 % that we will plummet and fall well short.

So initial results are 66% are optimistic and 34% pessimistic about our chances come the second half of the season.

Personally I am in the optimistic school of thought, I think if we can get to this stage of the season and still not be in the bottom three after all the trials and tribulations we have had, then we can only do better in the second half of the season and if we do that then we will stay up.

So what are your thoughts, can we pull clear with our current squad ? do you think we need a signing or two in January ? or do you feel that we are doomed whatever we do !
