Paul's long legs came in handy there. 1-2

Welington off with cramp. Done well.

Bedders gives away stupid free kick.

Why the hell didn't KWP cross it?

Stephens lasted 10 minutes. Smallbone next up.

Saints have taken the lead in a number of games but still haven't found a way to hold on and even increase that lead. I suppose it's progress of a sort.

Saints defending is woeful. How a three at the back system can be so open through the middle is crazy. THB is so bad. Bedders far too slow. Bree pretty anonymous really.

And it happens again. Carved open but get away with it.

Totally open at the back. THB goes walkabout. No cover. 1-1.

Quite alarming still how opponents stroll through Saints midfield.

Welington with good early tackle.

Quick cross into the box to the big lad who heads it in. That'll never catch on. 🤪

Pressure's all on Ipswich in this game. They're the only ones with anything to play for. Time for Saints to relax and discover the art of scoring at last.

Pressure's definitely on Ipswich next week then.

Offer for 7-8m EUR. Saints want 13 but will think about 10.

Amazing to see crosses into the box leading to goals. If only we could get Saints players to do so more often when in attacking wide areas.

The Martin mentality is too far entrenched in some players. First thought is always to make an easy pass backwards, attack at walking pace and refuse to cross the ball when in attacking areas. There are some signs that it's being knocked out of them but it'll take an exorcism probably. Trouble is there's now a losing mentality at the club.

Thought the defender might have flicked it on but he missed it.

It's going to be wiped off isn't it?

Saints passing is poor at best.

Fernandes looks knackered.

Newcastle break quickly with millions of runners. Saints escape.
