Too many play-offs in the past have ended badly for SAFC but Tony Mowbray’s team is tearing up the history books and giving fans fresh hopes.

So as you get ready to sing once more, do it with inspiration from all those who have loyally supported the team at these previous ties.

And hopefully, all we will know is we are on our way.
