Farnborough vs Saints - match updates

Err...this effectively our reserve side. Hence why Henderson is there and not Pardew. It doesnt matter a jot.

 

Beg to differ - but it does matter. Let's have a 'winning mentality' running through the whole team - not just half of it eh. Reserves today could well be 1st team players tomorrow, hence they need to fit into the 'winning mentality' team quickly.

 

All of that said - I accept your point, there is no point looking to deeply at a pre-season freindly whilst fielding an XI.

When we field an XI side, that gives me the impression that these games are for fitness more than result.

Good updates trousers.....i bet you wished you'd stayed at home though.

 

No point getting worried about this though, the team was full of youth players/reserve players and players who will leave shortly anyway.

 

....At least we got a goal though :rolleyes:

Well, I'd chip in 50p for Trousers for the sheer entertainment and graphic detail of that commentary. Anybody else care to contribute?

 

It was certainly worth it. Great effort Trousers. I'll bung you a couple of thousand (Belorusian roubles) the next time you pass this way (or if I ever bump into you on my rare visits to St. Mary's).

Just got back from Farnborough - what an awful performance from Saints XI. Henderson really didn't have a clue what he was doing. I sat right next to the dug out in the second half and he was very quiet. Alan Pardew came down from the stands at one point looking less than impressed, gave some instruction to SH then went back.

 

I don't think that any of the players on show tonight will get anywhere near the first team. Saga looked like he couldn't be arsed, Lancashire looked out of his depth even at this level. Morgan came off injured again and although Jake Thompson scored a wonderful goal he looks very light weight.
