Any of those top 11 will be worth a punt, but ultimately it will depend on who does what in January |  |

Feeling the dark cloud from yesterday's result still hovering above me this morning I sought comfort from history.
Since I attended my first game at the Dell in 1960 , Saints have played 2061 away fixtures. The records show..
Won 451
Drawn 545
Lost..1065
So I figure we only ever had a 22 percent chance of winning yesterday. If you are easily deluded, as we Saints fans have to be, then 22 is close enough to zero for all practical purposes.
I therefore concluded that we had no f*cking chance yesterday and suddenly I felt positively chipper...  |  | | |

Saints were odds on 1/2 to win yesterday, PNE 9/2, so if you put 100 sovs on you'd get 150 back winning just 50 sovs when we battered them at 5pm.
So the bookies thought we had a 75 percent chance of bringing home the bacon,
about a big a cert as the Tortoise beating the Hare back in the day.
The moto to this story is, never back away teams at odds on, you will do your Jacobs  | | | |

Indeed.
I am not a betting man but 9/2 in a 2 horse race iat home in a league like this is generous anyway.
The only bacon our boys brought home was in their descending colon from breakfast that morning. | | | |
