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.
What to read next:
Ipswich Town v Swansea City : Swans with decisions to make Swansea City visit Ipswich Town on Saturday with the majority of people already putting this clash down as a home win. That may well be the case but the Swans are not exactly playing badly with their last two away games resulting in a win and a loss.
Cullen saves the Swans in a world class moment The Swans most certainly flattered to deceive last night at the Swansea.com. In a game where all the focus was on investor Snoop Dogg the pre match build up made the game itself feel secondary. After all the glitz and the glamour that turned out to be the highlight of the night - there was little of that on the pitch.
TEAM NEWS : Swansea City v Preston North EndTonight we see the Swans take on Preston North End which again is a form of six pointer with the Lillywhites three points ahead of Swansea. Win and the hosts move onto forty eight points, level with the visitors. Lose and it’s a six point gap.
Snoop Dogg brings worldwide glamour to Swansea City v Preston North End Swansea City take on Preston North End this evening at the Swansea.com in front of a sold out home crowd. It could well be the Swans see their second twenty thousand plus attendance of the season In a cleverly promoted fixture which will include one of Swansea City’s investors, Snoop Dogg.
Swansea City 1 Bristol City 0 : Swans under par but they still take the points !Swansea City most certainly were not at their best for this early afternoon kick off but they still managed to take all three points today. Despite an exceptionally poor completed passes stat (63%) which tells you some of the story, they had courage and endeavour which we wouldn’t have seen before Vitor Matos took over as head coach at the Swans.
Swansea City v Bristol City : Match day morning & team news Swansea City now know if they take the points today they will most certainly be three points outside of the play offs (for a bit anyway) after Blackburn Rovers last ditch goal to defeat Preston last night. Tuesdays visitors Preston North End lost 1-0, so they will be looking to put that right on Tuesday in front of a completely sold out crowd.
