Welcome to Episode 279 of the Total Saints Podcast, your home for all things Southampton FC. This week, Martin Starke, Steve Grant (Saints Web), Alfie House (Daily Echo), and Glen de la Cour (League1Minus10) discuss the intense first leg of the Championship play-off semi-finals against West Brom, which ended in a goalless draw at The Hawthorns.
In this episode, we dissect the cagey encounter, where Saints managed to hold a clean sheet with a five-man backline. Alex McCarthy’s performance in goal earned him player of the week, making crucial saves to keep the team in contention. Despite the lack of goals, the result leaves everything to play for in the return leg.
Looking ahead, we preview what could be the biggest game of the season this Friday night at St Mary’s. The panel discusses the strategic choices ahead, including whether to stick with the five at the back and potential changes in the forward line. With home advantage on our side, we explore how the Saints can leverage the sold-out crowd to secure a win and a trip to Wembley.
We also feature insights from Chris Hall of the Albion Analysis Podcast, giving a perspective from the opposition’s camp. As the Saints gear up for the decisive match, the panel shares their predictions for the outcome.

Welcome to Episode 277 of the Total Saints Podcast, your home for all things Southampton FC. This week, Martin Starke and the team, including Steve Grant, Glen de la Cour, and guest George Rees-Julian, wrap up the regular season with a review of the Saints' encouraging win at Leeds and look ahead to the crucial play-off semi-final against West Brom.
In our Leeds review, we discuss how the Saints, confirmed to finish 4th, managed to end the regular season on a high note with a much-needed victory. Despite the low stakes, the team showed promising form, potentially identifying the best XI to propel us through the playoffs. Highlights include a solid first goal orchestrated by Downes and Che, and a standout performance from Kyle Walker-Peters, whose relentless effort led to the second goal.
Turning our focus to the playoffs, we preview the upcoming semi-final first leg against West Brom.
