It’s all possession and zero control of the game.

It’s just so boring and toothless. We don’t look like we even want to score let alone look likely. Another nil incoming. Unless we can actually have some shots…

Genius football from saints.

There was a chance just a couple of minutes ago to play a through ball in the final third to a midfield runner. Instead it goes backwards to the centre backs and then passed about slowly.

Just listening to the post match conference- I can’t believe (amongst many other things) that he thought archer played well?! What game was he watching??? also to get so pissy with Alfie’s question… Martin is so unlikeable at times

what I wouldn't give for saints to have a prime Beattie now - decent pace, great shot, physical presence, good in the air. decent goal scoring rate.... if a little bit streaky

I don’t know if I misunderstood. I just simply didn’t know 😂 so at an English club since 18 (continuously) except for loans I’m guessing.

If we did resign JwP - would he still count as a homegrown player? Guessing not.

Good, back to an appropriate discussion for the thread. I love JWP but he has some limitations as a player and normally I would’ve said yes in a heartbeat - but the reality is at the moment (in my opinion) he wouldn’t bring in enough extra qualities that we are short of in the first team, to justify the cost of having him here - we have other, more pressing shortfalls to address. in relation to the other debate.: “Don’t be a dick” is a good life maxim. Allow other people to live their lives however they wish if it’s with other consenting adults and isn’t actively hurting another person (real hurt not imagined transgressions). stick up for marginalised people and be an ally for people who can’t defend themselves. Basically be nicer.

I don’t think you mean to say that homophobia is banned in Islam… right? Or are you suggesting that he is a bad Muslim by practicing homophobia. It’s just all so confusing *clutches pearls*

Hard (for us) to score with the ball.

I mean it’s not difficult to just use the ignore feature and not join in or encourage a pile on.

Ings isn’t the same player that he was when he was with us. Age and injury have caught up with him - plus I don’t think he’s that motivated (Particularly to play for us) there’s reasons why he doesn’t play and doesn’t score anymore. Do not touch with a barge pole.

Tbf I think you’re taking this a bit out of context. 2 established players. Plus a reserve plus a (highly regarded - (at the time)) youngster is fine depth to play 1 role. 🤷🏼‍♂️

Mate, everyone is depressed enough…. (it has been discussed. And is (one of) the areas of concern.)

It’s funny. Not that I particularly disagree with you. I’ve struggled by and large to enjoy the style of play - even last year.

I genuinely wonder what the odds on saints not scoring this side of Xmas? I’d be tempted to have a punt.

Maybe he was tired from knocking off Lucy Pinder and got defensive? Being told you look tired is a funny thing to be prickly about. Most people would just go, “yeah, I am a bit”

I’m guessing Edozie was offside before his pass? He was off screen so hard to tell

Have we tried tall Paul in goal ?

I *think* it was because we signed him as a free (so no fee) and hold his registration - if he does well and someone buys him - then that fee is pure profit.

Is that temporary or permanent? Any noise about filling the vacancy? Or is there no longer a vacancy?

Has there been any news/developments in terms of a replacement for Wilcox? Who is undertaking his duties ? Or have we decided that it was all a bit unnecessary and he was deadweight? also, what’s happened to the forum search function? (Granted I might be being an idiot, but I couldn’t find in on my phone)

As in - this is how many points this 11 will get in the prem?

If Ings comes in and scores 45 goals and fires us to champions league glory then job done. Bunch of absolute melts on here honestly. /s or… he’s aging, injured often, on high wages and has scored 3 goals in 2 years. (Or similar) so it appears it’s much more likely to be a shit signing than a good signing. I’m pretty sure that’s what people are reacting too.
