Some of the negativity on this thread is absolutely unbelievable.
Some of you should be ashamed of yourselves.

Yes we can beat Saints, Yes we will beat Saints, listen we've played 3 teams recently that have stuck 9 players behind the ball and hit us on the break but Saints won't do that it will be the same as Charlton and Posh, whether we get the same results? we'll just have to wait and see but you lot need to sort yourselves out we draw 1 lose 1 in the league and you're all starting to be really negative, why? we're not going to win every game are we

I've had time to get over the disappointment of yesterday. Of course we can win at Southampton!
We were always going to have a little blip and it's far better to have it when you're eight points clear than if we were battling to get into the playoffs and get knocked into mid-table. We are where we deserve to be and I actually think that Southampton away is the perfect game for us to bounce back in. It was unbelievably obvious yesterday how much we missed LuaLua, but fortunately this will not be an issue on Tuesday as he would not have played anyway.
It is vital that we get this "very special" winger in by Colchester and all the better if he's in by Tuesday, but we can win whether we have him or not.

Totally agree to much negativity. Well said!

It's obvious, as lightly mentioned above, that LuaLua wouldn't have started. Ideally we'll start out on Southampton's smooth, warm pitch like we did against Charlton with some lovely, patient little-triangle football. The confidence, if it's really honestly dropped, will return and we'll see Bennett marauding their backline. We completely outplayed those long-ball twaterellas last season, and i would love to see that again. I don't see why we can't smash them about and come home laughing.

Anyone saying we can't win just needs to f*** off and not come back.....please.

their main threat no longer appears to be from their "big name" forwards and they are beginning to score goals from all over - a bit like us when we are playing well. Tough game but I think we will manage a 2-1 win or a 2-2 draw
I'd settle for a repeat of last year! (though not if it's the lead up to a run like we had after the Southampton game last season!)
Yes, we CAN win, but all in all, considering our recent form, I'd take a draw if one was offered now.

If supporting Brighton has taught me one thing, it's to expect the unexpected.
Yes we're in a sticky patch, but we're top of the table for a reason. Let's go there and show them why we're Championship material.

Was you at the game when Dunk played for us against Tranmere, oh yes he was given MOM again, and not an end of season game, try and be a little more positive about our youngsters. This lad is a football professional signed to do a job, at the mo, to stand in for the more experienced when they can't make the game. He will be fine if needed ------ have faith in our team they need us now. Not just when we are winning every game. Sorry for the rant but yes I do feel better ta
How can a team who are 4 points clear at the top of the division, lost 1 in 14, and only dropped points at the weekend due to a 93rd minute own goal be described as a team whose confidence is 'very low'?
The game was beyond doubt when LuaLua came on at Charlton, he wasnt needed at Peterborough, we went 2-1 down with him on the pitch at Hartlepool.
Saints always play better with a full away end eh? Didnt seem that way last year when we were down there.
Sounds like you're underestimating us. Sure you're in good form, but we're a class act on our day which has been fairly often this season, not always coinciding with Kazengas presence on the pitch. Just because it hasnt come off in the last 2 league games doesnt mean it wont on Tuesday. A win would please me, and certainly not surprise me. A loss would severely disappoint me. We're top of the league for a reason and we've got every right to be going into this game as confident as you are.
Enjoy the game, Im gutted I cant be there. Think it could be an absolute cracker.
We're getting closer and closer to the game, so time to bounce this thread. I was feeling a bit worried, but as we draw near I'm beginning to feel quietly confident.
Dear Gus, Please could you arrange just one more away day we're f***ing brilliant flicky flicky absolute home team HIDING tonight please? My brother is going to be unbearable if we lose this, as is my best mate.

Too right, we can win. We have been the best team in this league so far. The table does not lie and we have been awesome up until the first game against Woking. Play the way we played against Charlton and Peterborough (in which game Lua Lua didn't even play) and we will win
