There was more booing when the little lad doing the half-time race thingy ran to the goal with the ball in his hand instead of kicking it from the half-way line. There was more entertainment in those few minutes than in all of the first half.

I've got us being relegated in 18th with Palace beating West Brom in their final game to stay up at our expense. Sent from my SM-G950F using Tapatalk

You can always rely on the fishy folks down the road to bring that silver lining.

Wow! How did that happen!!

This. ****ing hopeless

One of the worst half's of the season and there's lots of competition for that accolade. No attempt at passing, just lumping the ball about in the hope that it reaches a Saints player which it rarely does. No attacking threat. Complete and utter ********.

Might have been nice for them to have put a message on the site saying it wasn't working to save people trying over and over again.

Do you mean 'lose' or do get 'loose' in injury time? Must be the nervous tension I guess.

Agreed. He's really starting to become the player we'd always hoped he would. He's obviously taken some advice from somewhere as he's changed his game in the last dozen or so games. Passes forward (decent passes too), getting stuck into tackles and scoring goals.

I see Theo scored a couple tonight

I think you know what I mean but as I said I see very little chance of us staying up this season. Draws just aren't enough, we need a run of wins and I don't see where those wins are coming from.

Not good enough. Nowhere near it. The only positives for me were JWP who had another good game, Stephens and Hojberg too. Good for Carrillo to get a run out. I'm sure he'll improve with game time and playing regularly in the team (if he gets picked of course). Their keeper had very little to do though. Against a team of Brighton's quality we should have tested their keeper far more than we did. No surprise though. We seem to be able to up our game against the better teams (Spurs and Arse at home and Manure away) but then play sh*t again against teams we should be beating. I know we're only 1 point from safety but we just can't get a win and at no point tonight did we look like we'd get one today. I think we're doomed.

I'm going 1-1. That's not enough from this game but it's how I suspect it'll end up. Draw or loss at the weekend.

I suspect the more realistic reason for this shambles is that Promes took one look at our league position and recent performances and has hedged his bets. If we're in the PL in the summer then he'll join us, if not, then he's had a lucky escape.

But there again, he is the chap that said this: More Aaron King Retweeted Aaron King Hearing big reports that Balotelli has now passed his #Saintsfc medical.

Could be a wind up but looks quite exciting https://twitter.com/AaronFreelance/status/958010230918516738

Have I read this wrong or does he say he showed a picture of Promes to his wife from his phone but later on says there are no pictures as he was steering his small person away from the shop? #suspicious Sent from my SM-G950F using Tapatalk

Maybe you should read my post again where I say that if we signed Promes or Gaitan in addition to Carrillo then I'd be "very happy" with our dealings in this window. Clearly you can wait for as long as you like before making your mid up about individual players but that's not what I said. When the transfer window ends, you must have a view on whether, on the face of it, it's been successful? IMHO, we need a goalscorer, a fast winger and a CB. It was always very unlikely that we were going to get all 3 in January but if we manage Carrillo and Promes, I'd be "very happy" with that. Disagree? Coincidentally, I note there's a vote on Twitter on the same subject as follows: https://twitter.com/antonydjames/status/956623456166187008 Not just me then. But thanks for your opinion on what's best for me anyway.

Red and white blobs on the emoticon. #suspicious

I see what you did there!

Me too. I don't buy into all the negative ********. We get it whenever we sign anyone. We've got a target man that we've been crying out for. Promes or Nico Gaitan to add to the squad and hopefully we'll pull clear of the relegation zone. A CB would have been nice but if we get Promes I'll be very happy with our dealings in this window.

Played very well today. If we keep that up (big 'if' I know). JWP was my MoTM today. Thought he was excellent and with a few goals in his last couple of games maybe he's finally becoming the player we hoped he would be.
