George Burley is urging his players to show no nerves and revel in the pressure of their hunt for a play-off place.
Ahead of tomorrow's visit of relegation-haunted Leeds - the first of three games Saints must win to kep alive their Premiership promotion dream - Burley admitted: "There's always pressure, no matter where.
"We've got pressure because we need to win three games.
"Last season there was no pressure because the club wasn't anywhere near the top six, so I'd rather have this pressure than last season.
"And I'd rather have this pressure than Leeds, who are third bottom and fighting to stay in the division".
Full story, as part of five pages of Saints news and views, appears in today's Daily Echo.
