Beginning to look like bottling of epic proportionsOn the 1st Jan they were 17 points ahead of Leeds....they are now level, just 12 games later. Doubt many will have any sympathy with them if they fail to go up.

I wouldn't write off Southampton for automatic promotion. They have 2 games in hand and still have to play the 3 teams above them.
Looks like Portsmouth have passed on the baton as the team who is ultimate in avoiding promotion.Beginning to look like bottling of epic proportions
I will has I bet them to win the league in augustOn the 1st Jan they were 17 points ahead of Leeds....they are now level, just 12 games later. Doubt many will have any sympathy with them if they fail to go up.
I was thinking that. It's works in their favour, as perverse as that sounds.I wouldn't write off Southampton for automatic promotion. They have 2 games in hand and still have to play the 3 teams above them.
Now the Adkins days are long gone I'd much prefer them to well over the likes of Leeds and Leicester. Based on current standings I'd like Ipswich and Southampton to get the automatic spots, with Coventry or Preston nabbing the play-off spot! Would be nice for a bit of fresh blood in the prem, too!I wouldn't write off Southampton for automatic promotion. They have 2 games in hand and still have to play the 3 teams above them.
I genuinely feel miserable just at the thought of Southampton.Not for me Stains...
Can't stand them...Rather Leicester or Leeds than them...
Ipswich would be great though
Whatever you think of Southampton I would prefer a relatively local Away match instead of a hike to West Yorkshire given that we may have another European adventure (fingers crossed) This season has already been a strain on my finances yet I only did the Dam. League aways always take precedence for meThey lost, the down side to Leicester falling apart is it means Leeds are likely to go up automatically. Realistically it's 2 from 3 of Leicester, Leeds and Ipswich. Southampton look destined to the play offs where they will hopefully fail as well.
Easy tiger! I live in Southampton and although the place is as exciting as a library it does have it’s good points - like easy access to exit with the M3 and M27, rail services to Waterloo, Brighton and up to the Midlands and the North. It also has quite of us dedicated Albion fans within its environs. Added to that, IF they manage to get back into the Premier League then I’ll only have to travel less than two miles to watch the mighty Brighton at St.Mary’s - the proviso of course that we stuff them home and away like last season. Portsmouth on the other hand . . . .I genuinely feel miserable just at the thought of Southampton.
Club, city, everything.
I'd be quite happy if a hole opened up in the space time continuum and the whole place disappeared into the void.
Portsmouth can f*** off - forever. #TwatsEasy tiger!

I remember them paying 5m for Junior Lewes. They went into admin soon after and cheated that promotion when they had the “Come join us Bobby” banner. Don’t like themThey cheated FFP to get promoted, the first time, and got away with a £7.5m fine vs. £100m in TV revenue. Joke.
Never. There’s no good option at stake here other than the Tractor BoysThis is a rare, once in a lifetime occurrence, when Leeds are the good guys.
Surely an indictment of the city when your defence of it is mostly limited to the number of ways to leave it!Easy tiger!
