Well nobody else did it so here is the match thread

[SaintBobby]

Good first half display. Not enough height up front though.

 

Puncheon doesn't look totally fit to me, so we aren't really showing bags of pace either.

 

6.5 out of 10 so far

[Rod Le Shearer]

oh yes. We`ve had about 20-25 crosses into the box,most of them decent..Lambo would definately have gotten on the end of some of them ! Hope we`ll see Lallana second half.

[Dog]

Anyone else settle for a point at this stage?

[SuperMikey]

Agree with the height issue, our style of play is really suited to having a big lump like Lambert up front to get on the end of crosses. We've looked a lot better when playing the ball into Connolly or Barnard's feet, that's when things start to happen.

*sighs*

[Saints67]

What's the cheering about at HT?

Probably because we look strong in defence, they've not really even troubled our goal, we look dangerous in attack and we should have scored from one of hammonds attempts. It'll come. Don't panic and just chill.

[SNOWY]

Fonte up front?

[Hamilton Saint]

Anyone else settle for a point at this stage?

 

Nope. This should be a win for us.

[SO16_Saint]

Anyone else settle for a point at this stage?

 

No.

 

They've shown nothing going forward.

 

We will keep pushing and they will surely break under the strain.

 

2-0 win

No chance, plymouth are garbage.

[alpine_saint]

We look fairly fit, quite hungry, and well-skilled on the ball.

 

We just dont have a clear picture of what to do with it, and look a bit toothless.

Sorry I meant there were loads of cheering at HT on Sky...

[alpine_saint]

No.

 

They've shown nothing going forward.

2-0 win

 

 

0-1 on a freak counter-attack, I fear.

[SO16_Saint]

0-1 on a freak counter-attack, I fear.

 

Sounds about right!!

[Arizona]

Dog, stop trolling.

Against this lot ? At home ? No way! 3 points, second ha;lf we have to get on target and get a couple, we've done everything else. To get promoted we have to win games like this, and we can :-)

[Jonnyboy]

0-1 on a freak counter-attack, I fear.

 

[Torres]

What's the cheering about at HT?

 

Introducing Rudi Skacel.

[brightspark]

0-1 on a freak counter-attack, I fear.

 

Just as likely as Pompey winning the court case..!!....!.......... Oh wait.

[Thedelldays]

that kick off from plymouth was one of the worst I have ever seen

[saint_jas]

Ffs

[Under Weststand]

Jaidi mistake not cleared & 1-0 Plymouth

[Thedelldays]

lol

 

you just knew it...we never win our first game

[Arizona]

Ah, f**k off.

[Um Bongo]

Great start to the second half then.

[gaz]

Fook.

[Glasgow_Saint]

wtf

[martyg1950]

whoops.....

[dune]

0-1 on a freak counter-attack, I fear.

 

Welldone, are you happy now?

[crouchi]

Oh dear, now we have to show we can cut through them not just put crosses in the box and fail to convert

[Dog]

B0llocks

[Glasgow_Saint]

This looks like Brighton at home last season to me

[Jonnyboy]

no.3 sort it out!!!

[SNSUN]

Now, Dog, now I'd take a point.

[OttawaSaint]

0-1 on a freak counter-attack, I fear.

 

Happened to the team I play for last night, all over the ****ers, we pushed on more and more and they hit us on the counter, lost 3-2, was sickening...

[alpine_saint]

Welldone, are you happy now?

 

Its hardly my f**king fault that Saints are so predictable.

[Redondo Saint]

Nothin like a real test of our strength now!!

[alpine_saint]

Now to see if AP has a Plan B this season...

[Under Weststand]

Did we stay in the dressing room at half time? we are not at the races so far.

[Thedelldays]

why are we still hoofing it..?

[Arizona]

F**k me, what was in the half time pies? Saints have just looked hopeless and asleep.

[alpine_saint]

why are we still hoofing it..?

 

Presumably because all the pretty stuff in the first half produced f**k-all

[Smirking_Saint]

Well thats typical lol

 

Really shows our lack of cover for Rickie, no one to hold it up properly or dominate in their box.

 

We do look dangerous mind.

[Under Weststand]

Corner Saints need to get back into this soon, not like that S**t corner

[dune]

****ing **** corner.

[Dog]

Its hardly my f**king fault that Saints are so predictable.

 

Go out and find some edelweiss.

[Glasgow_Saint]

while it was 0-0 are slow build up looked cute, now it just looks slow and aimless.......need to step it up NOW

[Jonnyboy]

molyneux having good 2nd half

[alpine_saint]

Well thats typical lol

No, no, no. We have a super-deep squad, much better than the end of last season. Werent you told ?

 

Oh for a Papa or Antonio to run at them right now...
