Edmonton Saint Posted 5 September, 2009 Posted 5 September, 2009 Can't see one, so thought I would start one. Only change from last week is Pato in for Saga. Good feeling about today and we really need a win...Come on you reds !!!
Edmonton Saint Posted 5 September, 2009 Author Posted 5 September, 2009 Quiet in here today..Anyone would think there is a game on or something
Baj Posted 5 September, 2009 Posted 5 September, 2009 Too ill to go to the game, gutted. Is papa on the bench?

Edmonton Saint Posted 5 September, 2009 Author Posted 5 September, 2009 Not a lot happening in the game so far by the sounds of things.

JoeShmoe Posted 5 September, 2009 Posted 5 September, 2009 Had a test from a mate at the game - said absolutely no width yet again and we will struggle to break them down and get service to Lambert. Expect the same comments as weve seen all season from those that went You have to wonder if Pardew watches the same game as the rest of us. Charlton with 2 wingers have won 6/6 Maybe we can sneak the odd goal
Glasgow_Saint Posted 5 September, 2009 Posted 5 September, 2009 66 matches now since we last scored a goal in the 1st 10 minutes........
.comsaint Posted 5 September, 2009 Posted 5 September, 2009 At least we've started with menace. We sound threatening...for once!

Minsk Posted 5 September, 2009 Posted 5 September, 2009 Paterson just had a shot cleared off the line. So we clearly are making chances.

We have Thomson but I'm not sure he's good enough. Otherwise James could fill in that role but perhaps he is of more use in the center.

Otherwise James could fill in that role but perhaps he is of more use in the center. Yes, exactly. I'd be happy enough with Lallana wide right but Thomson has been shocking this season. James would be OK on the right but don't expect him to skin the fullback and get to the bye line - he's solid enough though. Incidentally we will win today - it's the first home league game i've missed so far.

Exactly, you don't have to nutmeg the fullback and get to the byline every time. Just play wide, provide an out ball, open up the pitch and get a few early crosses in
.comsaint Posted 5 September, 2009 Posted 5 September, 2009 I have a nasty feeling we'll be going down to 10 men sometime soon with Mellis being the culprit...
Thorpe-le-Saint Posted 5 September, 2009 Posted 5 September, 2009 Apart from Pato's chance, have we really troubled their back 4/'Keeper much?
Thorpe-le-Saint Posted 5 September, 2009 Posted 5 September, 2009 Right, they are down to 10 men, get on it Saints! Go for the kill!!

Minsk Posted 5 September, 2009 Posted 5 September, 2009 .comsaint said: I have a nasty feeling we'll be going down to 10 men sometime soon with Mellis being the culprit... They've beaten us to it. Izzet off for going the back of Lallana, after Adam had already lost the the ball!!
Arizona Posted 5 September, 2009 Posted 5 September, 2009 Battering them according to SSN. Against 10 men... surely we will lose this one.
Glasgow_Saint Posted 5 September, 2009 Posted 5 September, 2009 we must surely (surely) win now surely
westofshannonsaint Posted 5 September, 2009 Posted 5 September, 2009 according to SSN, Saints have battered Colchester since the sending off, just can't get the ball in the net.
Glasgow_Saint Posted 5 September, 2009 Posted 5 September, 2009 If we dont win today I will need to change my avatar

Looked nasty from here. Colchester have gone silly but it looks like the ref will book any saints player who does anything silly...

chrisobee Posted 5 September, 2009 Posted 5 September, 2009 We're in control but need a goal and then I think we can win 3 or 4.

.comsaint Posted 5 September, 2009 Posted 5 September, 2009 Phew - how close was that?!?! FFS - COYR...
Edmonton Saint Posted 5 September, 2009 Author Posted 5 September, 2009 Colchester just hit the bar...
revolution saint Posted 5 September, 2009 Posted 5 September, 2009 According to Cotterill on Sky Sports Colchester are lucky not to be one nil up. ha ha classic!
Minsk Posted 5 September, 2009 Posted 5 September, 2009 Colchester hit the bar from a quick break. Now, on any other day that would of gone in. So maybe today is our lucky day? And we go close at the other end. I am really looking forward to the second half!
Thorpe-le-Saint Posted 5 September, 2009 Posted 5 September, 2009 We need a goal before the hour mark otherwise we will lose.

Bromley Saint Posted 5 September, 2009 Posted 5 September, 2009 Baldwin (their captain) might be stretchered off
mUrph Posted 5 September, 2009 Posted 5 September, 2009 This is our chance. We have to win this game now.
.comsaint Posted 5 September, 2009 Posted 5 September, 2009 The big Colchester CH gets stretchered-off. Surely...surely - today will be our day?!?!
