Well, its taken 37 games but finally Saints have just about saved their Premier League status. Only a bizarre set of results, and a gigantic goal-swing, in the final round of fixtures will now see them relegated.But the drama on the pitch at the Liberty Stadium vs Swansea, where Manolo Gabbiadini scored to give Saints a precious 1-0 win, almost paled into insignificance compared to events off of it.Ben Stanfield (Host of TSP) and Adam Leitch (Chief Sports Writer, Daily Echo) look back on quite an incredible 24 hours around the game - with Saints having to change hotel at really short notice, believed to be due to 'dirty tactics' by an overzealous Swansea fan(s).Once that had unfolded they were then advised their pre-arranged police escort from the new hotel had been cancelled. More 'dirty tactics'!?If that wasn't enough the Saints team then had to park their coach and walk to the stadium, as they hadn't been allowed to unload by Swansea staff, due to the home team doing so at the same moment. More 'dirty tactics'!?!?!Hard to think all the above could happen in the modern age of the Premier League. But it did - and Ben and Adam humorously chat their way through it all!The main thing is that Saints will be playing Premier League football in 2018-19. And its been some journey getting to the stage of confirming that!Total Saints Podcast is dedicated weekly Podcast that goes to the heart of all things Saints.Twitter: @totalsaintspodFacebook: www.facebook.com/totalsaintspodE-Mail: [email protected]

Football can be a cruel game sometimes!Saints fans found that out this past weekend, as Everton - assisted by some rather poor refereeing - scored an undeserved 96th minute equaliser, which cost Southampton 2 massive points in their quest for Premier League survival.Ben Stanfield (Host of TSP) and regular guest Adam Leitch (Chief Sports Writer, Daily Echo), pick the bones out of another tough day at the office for Saints, before previewing the away trip to Swansea in just 48 hours time. A game that, certainly for now, looks to be a 'win and you stay up, lose and you go down' encounter.Sandwiched in the middle of that, Ben lets Adam know just how far he has travelled to watch Saints home and away this season (as if Adam wasn't depressed enough from the trauma of Goodison Park!!), and they also cover the traditional (and original) Player of the Season award - which the Daily Echo opened this week for voting, despite a testing season on the pitch (and in the stands).Total Saints Podcast is dedicated weekly Podcast that goes to the heart of all things Saints.Twitter: @totalsaintspodFacebook: www.facebook.com/totalsaintspodE-Mail: [email protected]

A win! An actual Premier League win! This is not a drill, repeat this is not a drill....Yes, TSP 34 sees Ben Stanfield (host of TSP) and regular guest Adam Leitch (Chief Sports Writer at the Southern Daily Echo) finally enjoy reflecting on 3 Premier League home points, for the first time since November!Discussion covers the St. Mary's atmosphere during/at the end of the Bournemouth game, fantastic individual performances by Dusan Tadic and Mario Lemina and also where the win now leaves Saints survival hopes.Alongside that, this week's Podcast also sees Councillor Andrew Pope (Southampton Independents Councillor for Redbridge) and John Bailey (host of fellow Saints Podcast, SaintsFC Podcast) join us to discuss whether Safe Standing can/will become an offering at Premier League and Championship football grounds in the near future - including St Mary's.Once all the dust has settled on the above, Ben and Adam look ahead to next weekend's massive game away to Everton. A game that is sure to test the nerves of every single Saints fan around the world!Total Saints Podcast is the dedicated weekly Podcast going to the heart of all things Saints.Twitter: @totalsaintspod Facebook: www.facebook.com/totalsaintspod E-Mail: [email protected]
