Saints 2 - 0 Shrewsbury - post match reaction

[Saint_clark]

w00t

Never in doubt.

[Ohio Saint]

This is officially the silliest game I've ever listened to since Man U changed their shirts at half time.

[dubai_phil]

Bugger. I'm gonna have to drink Blackberry smoothies every match now.

 

Good result, sounded like a grim game.

 

Happy to still be in the Cup, at least won't be playing Havant & Waterlooville next round

[for_heaven's_Saint]

David Conolly- what a guy.

[ericofarabia]

Wemberlee Wemberlee here we come .... LOL

[CWD]

The most boring 90mins i think I've ever listened to... and then that happened!

[Thorpe-le-Saint]

What a crap game followed by 90 seconds of madness! Hopefully Chelmsford won and we get them away in the 2nd round.

[SNSUN]

Unbe-flucking-lievable finish!

 

W00t for COnnolly. Looking forward to the highlights!

[Micky]

We're gonna win the cup, we're gonna win the cup.....

[Thedelldays]

meh....we won..nice

[SimonRichards]

I was just planning a midweek trip to Shrewsbury then we score.

[itchen_dan]

Agree, was literally about to switch off and get ready for a Pompey defeat and then Connolly scored. Mad.

[SOTONS EAST SIDE]

2-0 Ok played crap but still won. And Super Brighton, not so super with 0-0 draw against Woking at home. LOL

[suewhistle]

Looking forward to the highlights!

 

Looks like the usual 25 seconds worth should be enough...

[Toadhall Saint]

I left at half time we were crap.

[SNSUN]

Looks like the usual 25 seconds worth should be enough...

 

But WHAT a 25 seconds!

[saint lard]

I will await the 'Adkins is a genius' thread.

[del boy]

Its all about winning games of football

[SuperMikey]

GET THE F*CK IN! My nerves are completely shattered. Was standing outside my room with the Solent commentary on talking to my flatmate when Connolly scored. I think she's gone deaf now.

Sounds like Lallana was quality all game as well, what a player!

[benjii]

I left at half time we were crap.

 

You should've stayed - everyone said we were amazing second half.

[CWD]

I left at half time we were crap.

 

probably a wise decision in hindsight

[Thedelldays]

I will await the 'Adkins is a genius' thread.

 

or is this proof that another win meaning the lads "are not playing for him"..?

[John Boy Saint]

Dirty naughty Nun power does it on the match thread: no more Wooting then!

 

What cheeky boys our Saints team is teasing us with a trip to Shrewsbury then they take it away!!

[SuperMikey]

[dubai_phil]

I will await the 'Adkins is a genius' thread.

 

And not to forget the eagerly awaited start Connolly instead of Lambert thread

[Toadhall Saint]

I will await the 'Adkins is a genius' thread.

 

Not on that showing! No tempo no desire. We won I suppose he's a genius for that. Other than that we were absolute crap. If we had come up against a tram with some desire to win we would have lost. all IMHO of course.

My missus has - I had my earphones in when Connolly scored and yelled a bit too loudly...

[John Boy Saint]

LOL at all the 85 minute ticket holders

[Johnny Shearer]

Rather Saints play crap and win than play pretty and not win.

A bit harsh on Shrewsbury if you ask me.

[Toadhall Saint]

You should've stayed - everyone said we were amazing second half.

 

Were you not there? If we had been amazing in the second half then we would have scored 10, as it was we managed 2 in the final 5 mins. Shrewsbury were crap and thought they'd lost before they even stepped over the white line. We should have murdered them.

[Toadhall Saint]

Not at all.

[S-Clarke]

didn't sound great! but we have a habit of going right to the death at the moment which is testament to our improving fitness.

 

Through to the next round....and it continues our brilliant run.

A tram but does it have a desire to win[

[Saint Charlie]

In the hat and no injuries, pretty good overall.

 

Brighton and Peterborough face replays before we play them which is good.

 

Nice to have Connolly back as an option.

[saint lard]

or is this proof that another win meaning the lads "are not playing for him"..?

It appears they did not for over 88 mins.

No, I couldn't be bothered to go.

[CWD]

we have only conceded 1 goal in Adkins' 6 home games in charge. He is a genius

[Window Cleaner]

It appears they did not for over 88 mins.

 

don't start all that.I don't doubt that a few of the lads didn't much fancy it, nor see why some had the day off and others didn't.

But it's nothing to do with wanting to play for the manager.

[Toadhall Saint]

Laugh - I almost did - there were you?

[Window Cleaner]

No, I couldn't be bothered to go.

 

along with many others,good, whingeing Shrewsbury will make very little out of it, neither will we for that matter

[InvictaSaint]

It appears that some people are, quite simply, never happy.

 

We didn't play brilliantly, but we won. How many times have people moaned that we never win with late goals? Then we do and people still moan! This was Shrewsbury's big day out, in the FA Cup, and they made it hard for us, but we got there in the end. Job done, and that is all that matters. Brighton drew 0-0 at home with non-league Woking; on the basis of the reaction on this thread, I would guess that most Brighton fans have therefore topped themselves by now.

Carlisle won though 6-0, aren't they next up for us?? We'll have to watch that Madine ..4 goals today.

[corsacar saint]

It keeps the winning run going,which is the most important thing,and we just managed to avoid that dreaded reply.

[kwsaint]

So we scored goals in the last minute not let them in, right?

[The Godfather]

Not a great game but we never looked like conceding but we won and are through. The second half was Lallana versus Shrewsbury, too many players not playing well, Chaplow did well again but they defended very well.

[View From The Top]

I will await the 'Adkins is a genius' thread.

 

Give up your pathetic and petulant anti-Adkins stuff.

 

Pardew has gone, deal with it and man up.

[doubleonothing]

A very dull game to listen to which turned out great!

[Saint Charlie]

Carlisle were playing the lowest ranked team left in the Cup I think. Still, yes we have to watch out for them.
