Glasgow_Saint Posted 26 January, 2010 Posted 26 January, 2010 So Thomas not injured then. Very poor decision to change 75% of a back 4 that played well together Sat IMO. Did it b4 against Millwall and it didnt suceed - perhaps he's hoping 2nd time lucky?
Saint_clark Posted 26 January, 2010 Posted 26 January, 2010 ----------Davis Jonny-Fonte-Seabourne-Mills Antonio-Wotton-James-Lallana ------Lambert--Barnard Bench- Bart, Harding, Thomas, Jaidi, Morgan, Holmes, Waigo.
Paul Chuckle Posted 26 January, 2010 Posted 26 January, 2010 anyone know how far away Connolly is from fitness?????
Glasgow_Saint Posted 26 January, 2010 Posted 26 January, 2010 ----------Davis Jonny-Fonte-Seabourne-Mills Antonio-Wotton-James-Lallana ------Lambert--Barnard Bench- Bart, Harding, Thomas, Jaidi, Morgan, Holmes, Waigo. Should be more than enough. 0-3 i think (hope)
VectisSaint Posted 26 January, 2010 Posted 26 January, 2010 So Thomas not injured then. Very poor decision to change 75% of a back 4 that played well together Sat IMO. Same back 4 that played the game before though isn't it (or did Harding play?). It will only be a bad decision if we lose. Not surprised Morgan not included wither, not really his type of game, more rough and tumble, tight pitch that suits Wotton better. My only comment is that the bench is very defensive, is Connolly injured?
Draino76 Posted 26 January, 2010 Posted 26 January, 2010 I didn't even realise we had a londonish game tonight FFS.
saintkiptanui Posted 26 January, 2010 Posted 26 January, 2010 Still think Antonio is better coming off the bench and Thomas should be playing, harsh on him.
Saint_clark Posted 26 January, 2010 Posted 26 January, 2010 anyone know how far away Connolly is from fitness????? I never saw anything that he was injured so I assumed he was just being rested over the weekend, but obviously there IS something wrong.
krissyboy31 Posted 26 January, 2010 Posted 26 January, 2010 I never saw anything that he was injured so I assumed he was just being rested over the weekend, but obviously there IS something wrong. Still not recovered 100% from his groin injury. Signing Barnard had given AP the chance to let him get properly fit rather than rushing him back in.
Thedelldays Posted 26 January, 2010 Posted 26 January, 2010 sides that spend 3 million + on 12 players should not struggle to beat Brentford you could probably buy their whole club for the money we have spent this season
Avenue Saint Posted 26 January, 2010 Posted 26 January, 2010 Still think Antonio is better coming off the bench and Thomas should be playing, harsh on him. no morgan, thomas or Jaidi?? bit of a strange selection. Not as though we're going to be overwhelmed with creativity froim james n wotton is it?!
ericofarabia Posted 26 January, 2010 Posted 26 January, 2010 The last 20 mins on Exclusive Saints Player coverage has been virtually all Shytesmuff. A bit of a lol listening to Peter Storrie .... thought it was Harry Redkrap talking. Another Mockney wideboy. Oh joy of joys we now go over to FP for team news .... crap.
Saint_clark Posted 26 January, 2010 Posted 26 January, 2010 Oh FFS, commentators on Solent making a mountain of the changes to the side - we've got loads of games coming up/just gone, and we've got players available for selection now after the cup game.
revolution saint Posted 26 January, 2010 Posted 26 January, 2010 you could probably buy their whole club for the money we have spent this season We should do that every game - it'll guarantee promotion. I bet that's the reason we're extending Staplewood.
AndyNorthernSaints Posted 26 January, 2010 Posted 26 January, 2010 Alot of people on here have obviously not seen Brentford play? unlucky away to Norwich on saturday. They don't score many but also don't concede many and are hard to beat. I'll settle for a narrow hard fought win.

oejwells Posted 26 January, 2010 Posted 26 January, 2010 ----------Davis Jonny-Fonte-Seabourne-Mills Antonio-Wotton-James-Lallana ------Lambert--Barnard Bench- Bart, Harding, Thomas, Jaidi, Morgan, Holmes, Waigo. No attempt at spelling jonny's surname? I dont blame you i have no idea. Is solent doing pompey or saints game?
Minsk Posted 26 January, 2010 Posted 26 January, 2010 Did it b4 against Millwall and it didnt suceed - perhaps he's hoping 2nd time lucky? You make it sound as if that defence got torn apart and conceeded loads. It kept a clean sheet until virtually the last kick of the game, simply because half the team switched off thinking we had just scored the winning goal. I doubt they will make that mistake again!! Personally, I am very happy with this starting 11. I would have preferred Thomas at RB, but I guess AP is playing safe with him given the fluid on his knee reported yesterday; and I would prefer Jaidi to Seaborne alongside Fonte, but we all know he is not up 2 games in a few days, hence why AP signed TWO new CBs,
Saint_clark Posted 26 January, 2010 Posted 26 January, 2010 No attempt at spelling jonny's surname? I dont blame you i have no idea. Is solent doing pompey or saints game? I know how to spell it, it would just throw the side out of proportion making the defence seem really wide and the midfield playing narrow
beatlesaint Posted 26 January, 2010 Posted 26 January, 2010 Quite surprised Morgan is only on the bench considering we went to the trouble of an appeal !
Saint_clark Posted 26 January, 2010 Posted 26 January, 2010 Quite surprised Morgan is only on the bench considering we went to the trouble of an appeal ! We didn't appeal, which makes the decision to overturn it even more incredible.
oejwells Posted 26 January, 2010 Posted 26 January, 2010 I know how to spell it, it would just throw the side out of proportion making the defence seem really wide and the midfield playing narrow maybe thats the effect pardew's trying to put over, lull the opposition into a false sense of security about thre width of our midfield, and then bung it down the wings to michail and adam ..... or not.
S-Clarke Posted 26 January, 2010 Posted 26 January, 2010 Quite surprised Morgan is only on the bench considering we went to the trouble of an appeal ! i think the reason is that we planned for this game without morgan, so alot of the tactics/shape were decided when Morgan was deemed unavailable, so probably doesn't make sense to throw it all out at the last min.
AndyNorthernSaints Posted 26 January, 2010 Posted 26 January, 2010 sides that spend 3 million + on 12 players should not struggle to beat Brentford No point in them turning up then? no point in Leeds trying to beat Man Utd and Spurs? ....
ericofarabia Posted 26 January, 2010 Posted 26 January, 2010 No attempt at spelling jonny's surname? I dont blame you i have no idea. Is solent doing pompey or saints game? Just call him Semi, it's easier On teh radio Solent will be on 96.1 fm
Glasgow_Saint Posted 26 January, 2010 Posted 26 January, 2010 you could probably buy their whole club for the money we have spent this season Delldays - interesting fact for you. The whole Brentford 11 that plays us tonight cost under 200k in transfer fees! Thats a 5th of the £'s we paid for Thomas who warms our bench tonight!!
Saint_clark Posted 26 January, 2010 Posted 26 January, 2010 Delldays - interesting fact for you. The whole Brentford 11 that plays us tonight cost under 200k in transfer fees!

Saint Fan CaM Posted 26 January, 2010 Posted 26 January, 2010 Big big game that will not be a push-over - they are above us in the table remember. I think we'll nick it 1-0 or 2-1. If we're really lucky then 3-1. COYR!
Window Cleaner Posted 26 January, 2010 Posted 26 January, 2010 No attempt at spelling jonny's surname? I dont blame you i have no idea. Is solent doing pompey or saints game? Crap side ,what is that midfield, we're asking for trouble there. That is a hari-kiri selection if you don't mind me saying so. If we lose this we'll have deserved it.

saintfully Posted 26 January, 2010 Posted 26 January, 2010 We didn't appeal, which makes the decision to overturn it even more incredible. Didn't know that - cheers - and you're right, its bonkers it was overturned!!!! Anyway, Game on!!!! COYR
explorer saint Posted 26 January, 2010 Posted 26 January, 2010 Bad decision dropping Thomas for the Norwcih bloke, but the rest should do OK, hope he is resting Thomas but I feel he is justifying the signings and notheing else 1-1 for me
Window Cleaner Posted 26 January, 2010 Posted 26 January, 2010 You do realise that same midfield beat Ipswich on saturday? Brentford aren't Ipswich, there will be more hustle and less time. In a game against a CCC side you can get away with snails like Wotton and James but it's asking for trouble in League 1 where it's all about pace and aggression.
Glasgow_Saint Posted 26 January, 2010 Posted 26 January, 2010 No match thread? Start one - bout time you did something useful round ere

Glasgow, talk to me mate.. y r u always setting the bar so high for Saints? is it cos u hoping we fail each n every time n then u have an excuse to gun all things saints? n hope u can take a few of us along with u to thedark side? When I see your name, I can almost guess the negative spin that ur gonna be about to spew.. True?
Thedelldays Posted 26 January, 2010 Posted 26 January, 2010 surely we have better players on the pitch....surely

Yeah, League One players are better than CCC Don't be so ridiculous.

Window Cleaner Posted 26 January, 2010 Posted 26 January, 2010 Yeah, League One players are better than CCC Don't be so ridiculous. It's not about being better, it's about pace and oomph. Leeds beat Utd, not because they had better players but they hassled and gave Utd no time to play.
Saint_clark Posted 26 January, 2010 Posted 26 January, 2010 And if we win it??? Then we have "gotten away with it", I guarantee you
Thedelldays Posted 26 January, 2010 Posted 26 January, 2010 "pompey's going down with no money in the bank" love it

Toadhall Saint Posted 26 January, 2010 Posted 26 January, 2010 Early chance for Saints - Antonio just over/wide not sure which from the commentary. Corner to Brentford now.
