Till a few minutes from the end, Saints were considered safe. Not now, 
although Wigan have to get five points from three games to overhaul 
Saints, and that's assuming that Saints get nothing from their last two. 

Both of our last games are very winnable. Sunderland away, and Stoke at 
home. If we can't get some points from those, we probably don't deserve 
to stay up. 

I hate this situation. It was almost always like this when they were last 
in the top flight. End of season jitters. Will they, won't thy? Better 
than mid table obscurity I suppose. Something to keep the interest going. 
But I definitely prefer the feeling of fighting for promotion, to this.

Huge difference. What's interesting though is that a club like Man U or 
Liverpool can be many millions of pounds in debt and still trade as 
though there was no problem. Saints are solvent and trading in the black. 
Markus and Nicola returned the club to sound financial footing and Nicola 
will ensure that it remains that way. 

Saints may not win the Premier League that way (we might, who knows?) but 
at least the club will survive and flourish.

No doubt Tony will be promoting a gig again. I look forward to that. He's 
a bit of a star as far as I'm concerned.

Nothing arranged yet. More dates to be added. We can only hope.
