Hmmmm, their second string looks quite strong. A big night for Aaron Martin too.

 

COYS!!!

[Saint Without a Halo]

Time to get the team clicking together at last!

[brett24]

Good luck boys, need to take our chances and defend well if we are going to win tonight.

[dronskisaint]

No Guly then - clearance must not have come through.

[Saints67]

Think their second string may just be too strong for our lads.

[Toadhall Saint]

Lets just give 'em a good game! Big night for AM lets hope its a good one.

[brett24]

Their team does still good look, be a great night if we win.

[Hamilton Saint]

Come on, Saints!

[WokingSaint]

I'm glad someone prints the team the right way round! I'm sick of people, including the OS and sms, showing the right back at left back etc. Small point maybe but annoying. COYR.

[ericofarabia]

Come on you Saints.

 

Martin and Jose will have their hands full coping with Kevin Davies.

 

Don't think that is a 2nd XI Bolton have put out, plenty of experience but keeper making his debut, lets hope Lambo can put him under pressure.

[Thedelldays]

I wonder how the midfield will play with new added pressure for their positions

[dune]

This is just the sort of game we need to act as a springboard because it should raise our standards

[Hamilton Saint]

Saints have their first corner, taken by Puncheon. But it comes to nothing.

[saint_stevo]

8pm k.o?

[S-Clarke]

I wonder how the midfield will play with new added pressure for their positions

 

very good point dd, they've needed proper competition for a while.

[Colinjb]

Hopefully with a f**king rocket up their ars*s.

[dune]

Welcome back eric, you missed some classic merringtonisms against LO.

[Thedelldays]

8pm k.o?

 

yes.....

[Hamilton Saint]

This is just the sort of game we need to act as a springboard because it should raise our standards

 

And it gives some of our best players, who have been out with injury, more game-time to improve their fitness.

[Colinjb]

Live text commentary here... as already linked at the top of the forum.

[Colinjb]

Both Adam and Rickie have had efforts on target.

[ericofarabia]

A couple of snatch shots from Lambo and Barney and a header from Lallana early doors.

[Hamilton Saint]

8pm k.o?

 

No.

[Thedelldays]

sounds lively for saints so far.....

[saint_stevo]

They're only there to see Edgar Davids.

[Thedelldays]

96.1 has the skates!?

I lied..its 0-0 so far with saints sounding lively

[dune]

I have a good feeling about tonight. A weak Bolton team is not going to be better than us.

[Colinjb]

Looking at about 3/4 of their squad, they would more or less walk into our team.

[dune]

Your support is fckin ****, lol.

[ericofarabia]

Welcome back eric, you missed some classic merringtonisms against LO.

 

Had a great day out at SMS despite the score, but am now in Bolton territory (Lancashire) but have got DM blaring out loud and clear!!

[saint_stevo]

[saint_stevo]

oh.....

[ericofarabia]

Robbie Blake spits the dummy and throws the ball away but ref doesn't book him.

[Hamilton Saint]

what you all listening to it on?!?!

 

Saints Player.

[Hamilton Saint]

Good attack down the left involving Lallana and Schneiderlin.

[dune]

lallana gets in behind the defence and crosses to the keeper - a good move, lallana again plays well and passes to sneiderlin who earns a saints corner. good pressure from the lads.

[Thedelldays]

corner to saints....................................ummmmm...........well.................................................nothing..saints throw in the end

[ericofarabia]

Good attacks by Saints Lallana heavily involved, corner to Saints.

 

Punchy poor control out for a throw in..

[dune]

dave is starting to whisper....

 

this means something.

[Hamilton Saint]

Lallana has a corner kick from the left. Puncheon gets an opportunity but mis-kicks.

[skintsaint]

come on Saints make this pressure count unlike the two games we havent won in...

[Thedelldays]

just seems our final ball/touch is letting us down a bit....

[ericofarabia]

Merro goes into whispering mode, couldn't hear what he was saying, something about Lambo and Zak Knight.

[saint_stevo]

We should all hang our heads in shame
