Saint Fan CaM Posted 5 September, 2009 Posted 5 September, 2009 (edited) Never started one of these, so hopefully the MODS will oblige and sticky it? Anyhow, really, really need to see a Saints win today and a convincing one too. Our time surely must be right now for a big push out of the negative pts zone and upwards. All the components are in place! Hope for a noisy and fun atmos from all stands today too - the team needs every minute of our support even if things are not looking rosy. Come on you Saints!!!! PS: contrary to previous reports, Papa Waigo will not be playing but will be revealed to the crowd 10 minutes before KO today. Edited 5 September, 2009 by Saint Fan CaM New news...
Red Alert Posted 5 September, 2009 Posted 5 September, 2009 I cant see it today. Saga away, leaves Lambo and Pato un front. Two new boys cant play. And with Murty out its a big miss for us. However dont think they will beat us. So 1-1. Bore draw, nothing to see here. We will win next week though.
sad saints fan Posted 5 September, 2009 Posted 5 September, 2009 Its gonna be a good day today. Convincing Saints win and then home in time to watch England win as well.
treggs23 Posted 5 September, 2009 Posted 5 September, 2009 If it wasn't for the swine flu today would have been my first game of the season...come on Saints, make me feel really miserable for missing it by winning well
Saint Stimp Posted 5 September, 2009 Posted 5 September, 2009 No Papa http://www.dailyecho.co.uk/sport/saints/news/4582821.Saints_fans_must_wait_to_watch_Papa_play/?ref=rss
Glasgow_Saint Posted 5 September, 2009 Posted 5 September, 2009 No Papa http://www.dailyecho.co.uk/sport/saints/news/4582821.Saints_fans_must_wait_to_watch_Papa_play/?ref=rss 0-0 then
Thedelldays Posted 5 September, 2009 Posted 5 September, 2009 anyone NOT predicting a win is a NEGATIVE ****
saint_stevo Posted 5 September, 2009 Posted 5 September, 2009 i don't think we will win. Possibly the slowest looking squad ever
Glasgow_Saint Posted 5 September, 2009 Posted 5 September, 2009 i'd be pleased with a point. anyone that thinks we will win a game before xmas is a fool.....we missed 2 weeks of pre-season ffs.
Saint_clark Posted 5 September, 2009 Posted 5 September, 2009 anyone NOT predicting a win is a NEGATIVE **** :smt045
Spades Posted 5 September, 2009 Posted 5 September, 2009 Davis Thomas Trotman Perry Harding Lallana James Hammond Mills Paterson Lambart Subs: Bialkowski, Holmes, Wotton, Schneiderlin, Gillet, Lancashire, Thomson
Saint_clark Posted 5 September, 2009 Posted 5 September, 2009 i'd be pleased with a point. anyone that thinks we will win a game before xmas is a fool.....we missed 2 weeks of pre-season ffs. Twas longer than 2 weeks dear.
Saint Fan CaM Posted 5 September, 2009 Author Posted 5 September, 2009 anyone NOT predicting a win is a NEGATIVE **** But what do you really think? lol
um pahars Posted 5 September, 2009 Posted 5 September, 2009 Even if the two new guys aren't playing I'm predicting a scruffy 1-0 win to kickstart the season. Lambert deflected goal, they'll have one (maybe two disallowed) and we will ride our luck. 18,345. Then we'll be on a roll!!!!!!!!!!!
Thedelldays Posted 5 September, 2009 Posted 5 September, 2009 :smt045 what is funny..is that I predict a win most weeks whilst many others dont...yet somehow, I am negative...lol
Saint_clark Posted 5 September, 2009 Posted 5 September, 2009 Davis Thomas Trotman Perry Harding Lallana James Hammond Mills Paterson Lambart Subs: Bialkowski, Holmes, Wotton, Schneiderlin, Gillet, Lancashire, Thomson That's what i'm hoping to see. Although I think Jamie White will be on the bench rather than Gillet/Holmes.
Toomer Posted 5 September, 2009 Posted 5 September, 2009 Papa's paperwork has not come over from Italy the reason he can't play, 3-1 win.
Glasgow_Saint Posted 5 September, 2009 Posted 5 September, 2009 Twas longer than 2 weeks dear. didnt actually lose any time - Wotte took the 1st 2 weeks then AP took over and carried on. the 'we missed pre-season' excuse is bollix just as 'we were in admin 2 months ago'
Glasgow_Saint Posted 5 September, 2009 Posted 5 September, 2009 what is funny..is that I predict a win most weeks whilst many others dont...yet somehow, I am negative...lol Happy clappers call you negative because you dont make up lame excuses for poor performances and/or results. if we lose then you ask why, while the happy clappers are happy to lean on 'we were in admin'
Thedelldays Posted 5 September, 2009 Posted 5 September, 2009 didnt actually lose any time - Wotte took the 1st 2 weeks then AP took over and carried on. the 'we missed pre-season' excuse is bollix just as 'we were in admin 2 months ago' either way...we have played plenty of games for the "no pre-season" excuse not to be used.... colchester have been in trouble lately...again, no win today = no excuse..
Glasgow_Saint Posted 5 September, 2009 Posted 5 September, 2009 either way...we have played plenty of games for the "no pre-season" excuse not to be used.... colchester have been in trouble lately...again, no win today = no excuse.. I think Colchester will expect a defeat today - Col's team is in poor form, lost manager, lost players & fans are angry at chairmans ambition..... like you say anything other than a win today must be seen as unacceptable.
Thedelldays Posted 5 September, 2009 Posted 5 September, 2009 I think Colchester will expect a defeat today - Col's team is in poor form, lost manager, lost players & fans are angry at chairmans ambition..... like you say anything other than a win today must be seen as unacceptable. if we dont win...just watch the excuses come rolling out on here..there cannot be any what so ever
Glasgow_Saint Posted 5 September, 2009 Posted 5 September, 2009 if we dont win...just watch the excuses come rolling out on here..there cannot be any what so ever i'd be amazed if anyone can still make excuses - however the ambition of some on here is criminal and no doubt some will regurgitate the "admin" and "pre-season" or "it takes time" bullcrap. One of my favourites after a defeat is "we looked better today - someone will get a real beating soon"

One of my favourites after a defeat is "we looked better today - someone will get a real beating soon" funny..that if we were on colchesters position today and lost..we would use the upheaval they have had and a proper prime excuse...players lost, managers first game, no ambition by the chairman.. sorry, a win today is the bare minimum...ffs, we bought their captain Edited 5 September, 2009 by Thedelldays
revolution saint Posted 5 September, 2009 Posted 5 September, 2009 if we dont win...just watch the excuses come rolling out on here..there cannot be any what so ever The inevitable question is what would you do differently though?
Glasgow_Saint Posted 5 September, 2009 Posted 5 September, 2009 The inevitable question is what would you do differently though? win some games?

revolution saint Posted 5 September, 2009 Posted 5 September, 2009 win some games? That's not really an answer though is it? Surely no one decided we'd not win for 5 games just for a laugh....so something must be wrong. What is it?
Thedelldays Posted 5 September, 2009 Posted 5 September, 2009 That's not really an answer though is it? Surely no one decided we'd not win for 5 games just for a laugh....so something must be wrong. What is it? who knows...that is why we pay people like pardew a fortune....
revolution saint Posted 5 September, 2009 Posted 5 September, 2009 who knows...that is why we pay people like pardew a fortune.... So you think he's doing something wrong but don't know what? Great, that's helpful....
Thedelldays Posted 5 September, 2009 Posted 5 September, 2009 So you think he's doing something wrong but don't know what? Great, that's helpful.... what...did not realise I had to pin point the exact the problem...maybe, stop playing lallana wide..?
Glasgow_Saint Posted 5 September, 2009 Posted 5 September, 2009 That's not really an answer though is it? Surely no one decided we'd not win for 5 games just for a laugh....so something must be wrong. What is it? Fitness? Training? Preperation? Players? Desire? Manager? Fans? Mentality? Set-up? Strengh? Pace? Skill? combination of 2 or 3 of above imo Problem is other teams in L1 will also be weak in 2 or 3 (maybe more) of above - we just need to exploit weaknesses much like teams do to us. On paper we are one of the best teams in L1 - its time to start producing to our best on the pitch.
70's Mike Posted 5 September, 2009 Posted 5 September, 2009 this is going to be a tough game, they have a new manager and whenever saints meet new managers the results are poor
Saint_clark Posted 5 September, 2009 Posted 5 September, 2009 what...did not realise I had to pin point the exact the problem...maybe, stop playing lallana wide..? He would if we had better options. Mills is back now, so Lallana will be on the right again.
trousers Posted 5 September, 2009 Posted 5 September, 2009 0-0 then Hey, leave off.....I chose that first on t'other thread
SuperSAINT Posted 5 September, 2009 Posted 5 September, 2009 I'd go for:- Davis Thomas Trotman Perry Harding Mellis James Hammond Mills Lallana Lambert If you start with Pato & Lambo upfront, you leave yourself with d*ck all attacking options if you want to change things up front. (Or if you get an injury)
Thedelldays Posted 5 September, 2009 Posted 5 September, 2009 I'd go for:- Davis Thomas Trotman Perry Harding Mellis James Hammond Mills Lallana Lambert If you start with Pato & Lambo upfront, you leave yourself with d*ck all attacking options if you want to change things up front. (Or if you get an injury) sagga..?
Matthew Le God Posted 5 September, 2009 Posted 5 September, 2009 I'd go for:- If you start with Pato & Lambo upfront, you leave yourself with d*ck all attacking options if you want to change things up front. (Or if you get an injury) That has no logic! If you want to change things or have an injury whilst playing Paterson and Lambert upfront you could change it to the line up you suggested.
Thedelldays Posted 5 September, 2009 Posted 5 September, 2009 today.. davis thomas trottman perry harding Lallana james hammond mills patterson lambert subs..bart wotton holmes morgan lancashire mellis gillet
Matthew Le God Posted 5 September, 2009 Posted 5 September, 2009 today.. davis thomas trottman perry harding Lallana james hammond mills sagga lambert subs..bart wotton holmes morgan patterson mellis gillet Saganowski with the Poland squad
Thedelldays Posted 5 September, 2009 Posted 5 September, 2009 Saganowski with the Poland squad just got that...changed accordingly
Mustapha Fag Posted 5 September, 2009 Posted 5 September, 2009 Dell Days and Glasgow sitting in a tree ....................... having said that anything less than a win is not acceptable today IMO
stevy777_x Posted 5 September, 2009 Posted 5 September, 2009 Morgan isn't in the squad for the France under 21 game against Slovakia this afternoon so i suppose he could be on the bench for the Colchester and give us another option if we need to change the game.
John B Posted 5 September, 2009 Posted 5 September, 2009 funny..that if we were on colchesters position today and lost..we would use the upheaval they have had and a proper prime excuse...players lost, managers first game, no ambition by the chairman.. sorry, a win today is the bare minimum...ffs, we bought their captain I think you maybe right a win today it is then
sperm_john Posted 5 September, 2009 Posted 5 September, 2009 just rang up and got myself a ticket, get in we are going to win today as im down there!
ExSt Peter Saint Posted 5 September, 2009 Posted 5 September, 2009 I agree with those who predict a scruffy and not entirely convincing win for Saints. I would be very happy with that personally.
