I can see why they'd think that, I mean, being the third best team on the South Coast (with the largest budget) is certainly something to be proud of isn't it?

Well done those plucky Saints

Presumably they'll have an open-top bus parade when they finish somewhere between 10 and 15 points behind us and maybe 5 points ahead of Bournemouth?

Oh well

Also, there is a thread on the Huddersfield site about their promotion rivals' run-ins...and they haven't bothered to include our fixtures in it.

I assume that is a compliment

DATM - Down At The Mac - Huddersfield Town Forum - Run-ins

 

[Easy 10]

Respect where respect is due. SCC have won their last 3 on the spin to stay within 10 points of us. Thats almost TOUCHING distance.



If you are Mr Tickle.

 

[Lady Whistledown]

There are a few teams BANG on form, to be fair.

SCC have won a few, Huddersfield are on a bit of a roll, MK Dons are somehow dragging their shitty team up there, Orient can do no wrong (possibly because there's no pressure on them, to be fair), and Peterborough look unbeatable. Good job we're red hot too then eh?

funnily enough I did the same thing and presumably for the same reason

In terms of games against other teams who are in the mix for automatic promotion Huddersfield probably have the most difficult run-in as they have to play Peterboro,MKD, and us plus an under-performing/potentially dangerous Charlton and an in-form Brentford to come.

SCC play MKD,us, Orient and Charlton (twice) plus Brentford away must fancy their chances.

Posh have Huddersfield, MKD, Orient and Bournemouth and will run them very close on current form. Bizzarely they don't have a Saturday game now until 9th April.

Bournemouth have by far the easiest run-in with only Peterboro and Charlton from the top end and if they can recover from today cannot be ruled out.

MKDons have Peterboro, SCC and Huddersfield with less games to play than anyone
Orient with Charlton, SCC, Brentford and Peterboro as their toughest games on paper cannot be ruled out of a run in to the play-offs

Peterborough look unbeatable.

One can only IMAGINE how pissed off their strikers must be with their defence

From saintsweb......

Peterborough will win the league.
Saints second.
Brighton third.
B'mouth 6th or 7th (not certain but it will be goal difference)

I am sharing this with you now so that you can marvel at my greatness come May.

Kind Regards,

Alain.

Apparently Peterborough hit 100 goals for the season (in all competitions) today. According to their forum. Which also has a post about the run-in...which doesn't feature our games

Apparently Peterborough hit 100 goals for the season (in all competitions) today.

And probably shipped 98.

Bunch of clowns.

B'MUFF will get their revenge by beating Adkin's Sashettes in this years D1 Play Off Final.

You heard it here first folks...

Bunch of clowns.

They also missed two penalties today, in scoring six goals. Glad to see it's not just us

 

[Seagull on the wing]

We are not mentioned,maybe they have conceeded that the champions spot is out of reach!!

 

[Djmiles]

I dislike Southampton more and more each day. Their sheer arrogance is almost comparable to Leeds.

 

[trueblue]

I'd have said that as they've scored 15 times in the last four games without conceding a single goal, they're pretty happy with their defence now

 

[TS90]

To be fair, a few of the Huddersfield fans said that they expect to win at the Withdean, as "Brighton will most likely be up by then, probably as Champions."

This is what is interesting about Peterborough. Before we all knew they both scored and conceded the most in the league, now they seem to have sorted out the defence somewhat. I am absolutely gobsmacked at the effect Ferguson has had there on his return. We have to keep a safe distance between us and them/SCC. For my health more than anything.

Listening to BBC radio earlier where it was announced Southampton beat Bournemouth 3-1 to go into fourth. "Saints go marching on in League One" was the quote, and I was shocked and disgusted to be honest. They didn't mention us, Posh or Huddersfield who are doing better than them ffs.
