Pre Match chat here please

No Italians to score unless you count Lallana.

I'm looking forward to this game. I'm in the upper tier for this one this time. Not sure of the view from this location though.

 

Bright sunshine in London this morning.

 

For those not going, I notice that there is live streaming of the game on Justin TV at :

This'll be a tough game no doubt, especially as QPR are the team tipped to do well this season, but they have made an average start to the season and have Ledesma and (possibly) Buszacky out.

 

It all depends on what our team looks like as to how well we do, but I think we'll put in a good performance, and I would be comfortable today with a draw.

 

1-1

[DrunkenSaint]

depending on the team we put out 2-0 lose or 1-1, blackstock will score against us again.

[instinct]

thomas and svennson are out - could be tough for our defence to cope

 

i'd like to see skacel start at left back - surman can't cope

[Saint for ever]

Im hoping for a draw, 2-2 methinks.

[Um Bongo]

Let's have a win please! I'll take 4-3 to us.

[TopGun]

Good pointers Morph.

thanks

[sperm_john]

im predicting bad times too... sorry to all the optimists

[Tac-tics]

Will we see Perkart or Pulis?

[madruss]

Will we see Perkart or Pulis?

 

Good question, I'd forgotten about them!!

 

Can't see Pulis starting in midfield (unless he's actually a decent right winger) but he would probably be useful cover on the bench. Pekhart might be involved, but that would mean 2 strikers on the bench covering 1 position, which isn't ideal...

 

I guess with the 21 games in 7 days we'll see them involved pretty soon, if not today.

Expecting to see some dawning reality in certain elements of the fan base following this game...

Well, as it's a televised game, you're on a dead cert - I assume you have a fiver on the result I would have if it was allowed down here!

 

I'll wait until we're not on telly though if that's alright, it's the only extenuating circumstance I'd accept

:-)

[RobM]

Totally agree. Today is the day Saints fans realise, we never win on Sky

[ALWAYS_SFC]

I would ike us to play 2 strikers up front from the start.

[madruss]

Expecting to see some dawning reality in certain elements of the fan base following this game...

 

And deathly silence from other 'elements' should we win. (What did you think of the Derby game btw?)

[BotleySaint]

Hopefully we can pull ourselves out of the relegation zone. Or we might get too comfortable there for the rest of the season.

[Saint@Bristol]

Now I can see why players think they are modern day slaves. Poor buggers.

We played well, but it was Derby...

[LeBenali]

Anybody know for sure if Skacel is in the squad-can't find the squad list at all on the OS, so only going by the snippet of a preview that's on the BBC site.

[madruss]

We played well, but it was Derby...

 

That's the spirit!

 

And we'll play well again, maybe not today but when we do...we'll more than likely beat whoever's in our way.

 

Granted if we play like we did against Blackpool....not so much

[ALWAYS_SFC]

Hope so, as i feel like many others do, we could do with all experience we can

get to help the youngsters.

[Saint_Jonny]

Cant see a win for some reason.. im ust not very positive at the moment! Then again it is on the telly so maybe thats it...

 

COYR!!!

[itchen]

We played well, but it was Derby...

 

Who beat Sheffield Utd.

[trousers]

It's unusual for our squad not to be announced before the game (it usually appears at the bottom of the match preview article.)

 

Expect one or two surprises would be my reading-between-the-lines on that one....

[Poshie72]

Will be watching this one at home, inbetween bathing the kids etc. For some reason I have already written us off to win this game. i am not normally so pessimistic so I hope I am eating my words later

[NickG]

always have some optimistic hope but head tells me we will have done well to get something out of it -decent team, away -sky!

[Um Bongo]

Just seen Patrick Agyemang is fit and likely to play.

 

Eeeek.

[NickG]

team now on OS

http://www.saintsfc.co.uk/news/?page_id=10592

[Um Bongo]

Saints Team:

 

Davis

James, Lancashire, Cork, Surman

Wotton, Schniederlin, Gillett, Lallana, Holmes

McGoldrick

 

Bench:

Bart

Perry

John

Dyer

Perhart

[NickG]

Lancahsire and Cork playing

[Tac-tics]

I reckon he has that right, theirs the right mixture in that, especially with Wotton.

[NickG]

not sure of how the midfield will line up

Wooton Gillet

 

Lallana Holmes

Schneiderlin

 

perhaps?

[Tac-tics]

--------Davis-------

James--Olly--Cork--Drew

-----Wotton--Gillet------

-------Spiderman-------

Lallana-------------Holmes

--------McGoldrick------

[Minsk]

--------Davis-------

James--Olly--Cork--Drew

-----Wotton--Gillet------

-------Spiderman-------

Lallana-------------Holmes

--------McGoldrick------

 

That would be my guess to given those 11.

 

I am very surprised that Perry isn't starting.

 

Seeing Olly and Jack at CB does make me a bit nervous.

[Minsk]

We played well, but it was Derby...

 

and what about against Brum in the cup?

[waggy]

Does Nick Illingsworth have a contract with the BBC or is always 'just in the right (or wrong depending on you point of view) place at the right time? He's just been on 5Live!

[Um Bongo]

Why is Rupert Pitch side?

[sperm_john]

sky commentary is fairly biased as expected

[RobM]

Why is Rupert Pitch side?

 

Why not? I think it's good to see him there. Like him or hate him, at least he is at the side of the pitch supporting the team. More than can be said for many of us lot chatting away here!

[MongoNeil]

Sky just showed the line-up as Wotton in the hole behind McGoldrick.
