monosaint Posted 29 September, 2009 Share Posted 29 September, 2009 Well. We would be 20th without the -10 and only 3 points away from the top half of the table. We really have to stick with it. All this sack AP b****ks just highlights how negative we are as a fan base. If we are in the same position by Christmas then yes I would be saying the same as others.

CWD Posted 29 September, 2009 Share Posted 29 September, 2009 are people really seriously thinking that sacking Pardew is the way forward? I mean come on, I'm all up for people having their own opinions but this is ridiculous. A lack of stability over the last ten years is the reason why we're in this mess to start with, and people are seriously talking about appointing ANOTHER manager!? Absolutely ridiculous its been 10 games FFS Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yate Saint Posted 29 September, 2009 Share Posted 29 September, 2009 The worst thing about tonight for me was how Norwich managed to score FOUR in the last 15mins (20 if you count injury time).

CanadaSaint Posted 29 September, 2009 Share Posted 29 September, 2009 And with our squad, that is what we should be aspiring to ! We may have "competed well" against a top three team, but you don't get points for trying, and we don't win against the lesser teams, ( Carlisle 18th, Stockport 16th, Millwall 15th ). The comment was intended to provide some balance while the usual suspects run around panicking and calling for Pardew to be fired. We did compete very well with a top three team and we lead the game twice. I'm not happy either, badger, especially after being bushwhacked by a sub, but I feel we're making more progress than people are willing to admit right now. We just, as you pointed out, don't have many points to show for it and we need to rectify that in a hurry. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stepgar Posted 29 September, 2009 Share Posted 29 September, 2009 Does it come down to sheer quality? Maybe we have bought in players who simply are not good enough? Even though we thought they were.

Gordon Mockles Posted 29 September, 2009 Share Posted 29 September, 2009 Same old Saints, always last kick of the game! Decent game but we can't cope with pressure. They hammered our left side second half. Good subs in fairness to a good Bristol side but 3-2 last kick of the game!! Poor! Downside was, me & several fans around us knew this would happen. It's as though the players did too. They need to get their heads right or fragile nerves or match fitness/mental fatigue or whatever it was. Wotton on 4 the anonymous Schneiderlin suggested Pardew gave up on playing for the win. Seemed the squad did too. Great shame!! Not taking anything away from Bristol. They finished strongly, wanting the win. We didn't. We were at home. That's not good enough IMHO. Gillingham Saturday. We need an emphatic win & drastic change. Especially against wingers running at us. We never cope. No more excuses. Action! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NN2 Saint Posted 29 September, 2009 Share Posted 29 September, 2009 It's not so much tonight i'm worried about (Played a good side even match could have gone either way etc) but it's the others. Bristol are the best team to of come to SMS this season and before that we have played some very average at best sides and got nothing. Today I felt as long as we can get 6 points this week we will be fine. This though will not happen and if we don't win on Saturday then I think a lot of fans will start to turn on AP and 1 win from 10 is not good enough. I expected us on single figures possibly outside the relegation zone with a couple of hammerings of the likes of Brentford and Colchester along the way. Things have got to change and fast or else we will be the lowest placed team on the south coast next season which is really looking like a reality now.

Papa Waigo was shocking,scored a goal and thats it,and I thought Kelvin had put those stupid mistakes behind him,could have a been a much more costly mistake had we not gone 2-1 up.

Saint Fen Posted 29 September, 2009 Share Posted 29 September, 2009 Will say again Morgan was brilliant and got taken off.. Maybe he got a knock and papa.. Ummmm seriously has no idea what off side is Wi admit lallana looks good with lambert but no NO width poor old saints relegation battle is on I agree with all that. We lack width badly. We had some decent chances, Mellis and Lallana should have scored at 2-1 up. Looked poor when attacked out wide, they crossed far too many balls across the 6 yard box, maybe cause we lacked width in midfield which was also evident going forward. Hammond and Morgan look good in midfield and Lallana played very well up front. Lambert doesn't seem to be getting many chances. Saga never ever seems to get involved even when he has started. Lloyd James was very poor again as he was Saturday. Boy do we need Murty back cause he makes such a difference to the balance of the side. We always look like conceeding especially after scoring. We are struggling with Relegation and 1 win in 10 is no where near good enough. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Herne Hill Saint Posted 29 September, 2009 Share Posted 29 September, 2009 Before the match everyone wanted Papa Waigo to start to give us some much needed pace and width. Pardew to his credit gave him a start and he scored (but did little eslse according to some accounts). Whether starting Mellis is better than a lefter footer (Mills / Holmes ) is debatable. Bringing on Mills was also OK given that he has played well at left mid previosly and many fans thought he deserved a start. Therefore the only thing left is to start or give Holmes more time as a sub. Would this have made the difference - debatable, but one thing for sure there is a lot of over reaction on this board. Most of Pardew's signings have been good but right now because of the last minute equaliser things look s***e. I predict a reaction on Saturday.

S-Clarke Posted 29 September, 2009 Share Posted 29 September, 2009 oh my ****ing god. that is sick - absolutely sick. I've had a bit of time to sit and think about it - and i still feel ****ing sick. Not sure if i can be arsed to sum up the game, but i'll try. first half was a bit huff and puff, we did try and get the ball down - we didn't hoof it as much has we have done, but Rovers were a constant threat down the flanks and through the middle with their attacking pace and it was worrying us - esp harding who seriously struggled all game. Our goal was well worked though - nice little through ball by lambert and adam had held his position really well to keep onside - nice finish under the goalie - game on. ...then we let rovers have a feel of the ball again but they never really threatened us massively after we'd scored, but i hate to say it, it was a complete **** up by Kelvin - pretty much identical to the one he made against QPR a few seasons back, no idea wtf he was doing....and then it was 1-1. 2nd half.. I was blown away by how well we came out in the 2nd half, it was the perfect start with the goal. Cracking build up play, ball finds its self to Lloydy on the right, he whips a fantastic ball into the box....Lambo heads it, hits the bar, bounces on the line...but Papa anticipated it and got us back in front. After that, for the next 10mins it was complete 1 way, we just battered them, harried them, chased them - they didn't know what hit them. ....then we just stopped. Just like that, we stopped doing the chasing, we let them control the game and they felt their way back into it. Harding was completely done by their winger for the goal, their player played the ball across the box and there was only going to be one outcome from there. Rest of the game was pretty much played by rovers, we huffed and puffed a little bit, but rovers were using the width very very well and their pace was causing us all sorts of problems. Trotman and Jaidi were all over the place 2nd half. Their winner was a ****ing joke though, ok it was a stunning 30 yarder into the top corner...but the guy was allowed to win the ball in space, play it...and then the other guy was just allowed to shoot, no one near him...95th min, seriously? what's that about? where's the closing down...? Unbelievable game of football though - swung from side to side all game, a draw would have probably been fair - neither team did enough to win it outright IMO, but this is what happens when you loose control of the game. Alot of lessons learned tonight..but by watching rovers more than us. Their wide play was brilliant and it's a lesson to how we need to play. The pressure is on for Saturday now, make no doubt about it. If we fail to win that one, there could be trouble. Ratings... Kelvin 5 - Muck up for the goal, shouldn't have come out like that. Was a bit edgy for a bit too. Harding 5 - Was done all game IMO - couldn't handle their winger. Worst game i've seen him play. Jaidi - 6 - okish first half, but completely off the pace in the 2nd. Won the ball well in the air, but just couldn't handle their tricky pacy front men. Trottman 6 - again - same as Jaidi pretty much, struggled with the game 2nd half and were just pulled about at times by rovers. James - 7 played ok i felt. Got wide well and his crosses into the box were excellent, esp for the 2nd goal. Mellis - 5 - not good for me. has the pace, did chase the ball down well but didn't offer an inch of support to Harding - he was so exposed, one of the reasons Harding struggled IMO. Hammond 7 - gave his all, 110% - was key in our dominant period and kept us playing. Morgan 9 - Best game he's had for us - unbelievably good. Ran the show when we were in charge, running with the ball, passing, could have scored...he was brilliant. But i must say, he lost his way a little on about 70ish mins. Papa 7 - did well, decent anticipation for the goal - but needs to watch his runs! caught offside too often. Lallana - 7 - did ok - good goal, chased and harried well and picked up pockets of space in and around Lambert which made us dangerous. Lambert 7 - could have cored, unlucky not to IMO - but his hold up play was quality and his passing is very good. We should get it on the deck and play it to him like that - he's v good on the floor IMO. ....i'll go and lay down now i think. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In fact it could go to minus 11 if (and that's a big if) Brighton were to win their game in hand.Imagine that 13 points behind Brighton and 11 behind Exeter after 10 games, meaning that they,the lowest of the low,had done better than us.
