The Proverbial Six-pointer
Southampton play West Brom tonight. Southampton are 19th in the Premiership; West Brom are 20th, with two fewer points. If we lose, we go bottom. If we win, we’ll go above Crystal Palace, who are currently safe in 17th place, on goal-difference.
To say this is the biggest match of the season is an understatement. FA Cup Quarter-final1 against Man. Utd? A trifle, in comparison.
To think I gloated at my brother last year as his team - Leeds Utd. - were relegated…
Update:
It finished 0-0, despite Saints having at least three good chances. Bring on Arsenal!
