[The Kraken]

From Saints twitter:

 

Team: bialkowski, dickson, a.martin, tafazolli, argent, holmes, dean, gobern, mcnish, reeves, doble.

 

Saints looking comfortable on the ball early on mcnish going closest to a goal so far with a shot just over the bar.

 

Ben Reeves hits a low shot on to outside of the post from a Lee Holmes cross.

[The Kraken]

25 mins GOAL! Saints 1-0 up harlee dean taps home doble's pass

[The Kraken]

Doble almost makes it 2 moments later but his effort trickles wide of the far post

[The Kraken]

43 mins GOAL! Saints 2-0 up callum mc nish taps home at far post from doble's pass almost identical to the first on the other side.

 

Half time: Saints 2 Bompey 0.

[The Kraken]

47 mins GOAL! Saints 3-0 up doble again with the assist for mcnish to grab his second of the game

[SNOWY]

we're gonna walk this league.

[doddisalegend]

Surely Doble is going to at least get on the bench soon for saints.

[Matthew Le God]

Surely Doble is going to at least get on the bench soon for saints.

 

He'll only get on the bench if it is felt he is a better option than Lambert, Barnard, Do Prado or Connolly. Or if one or more of them are injured/suspended. At the moment they are all playing well and are fit.

[mdearlove]

62 mins GOAL! Saints 4-0 up now as Gobern keeps his cool to finish low from mc nish's pass

[landford.saint]

Apart from Lambert.

[Matthew Le God]

Apart from Lambert.

 

I don't think Saints will be dropping Lambert for Doble anytime soon.

[Lighthouse]

Gobern, Jesus I'd forgotten about him.

[The Kraken]

70 mins GOAL! and that's number 5 as ben reeves crashes in a low shot from the right at the near post

[jamesfp1]

Apart from Lambert.

 

4th highest goalscorer and a hanful of assists, hardly time to drop him for a child

[Matthew Le God]

Gobern, Jesus I'd forgotten about him.

 

He was injured for most of the summer and early season with a hip injury.

[doddisalegend]

He'll only get on the bench if it is felt he is a better option than Lambert, Barnard, Do Prado or Connolly. Or if one or more of them are injured/suspended. At the moment they are all playing well and are fit.

 

Fair point but what about the whole Bignall loan why we couldn't have used Doble in the situation is beyond me? Doble could have come on and got a bit of first team action against the Daggers rather than some kid from Reading

[SuperSAINT]

Good to see Oscar back. Wonder if he'll be sent out on loan to get some game time?

[The Kraken]

10 mins or so left racine is on for mcnish. gobern and holmes also off as a few under 16s get late runs out

[Saint-scooby]

Bless them out there in the rain.

 

ps make it 6

[Master Bates]

[Window Cleaner]

Bless them out there in the rain.

 

ps make it 6

 

not really surprising, we are fielding a side with 3 or 4 players who have Championship experience.

[farawaysaint]

5-1 final score

[once_bitterne]

Given that Pompey haven't been able to field the maximum number of subs on the bench how on earth can they play a reserve team? (or was it just a keeper and 4 outfield players playing?)

It was Saints development squad vs Bournemouth reserves, not Saints vs Portsmouth reserves.

[once_bitterne]

Ahh, sorry misread as Pompey! LOL!

[fish fingers]

Not to worry. You can always rely on MLG to correct any mistakes made.

[Matthew Le God]

Highlights of the game are now on Saints Player.

[Appy]

Did they sell out their allocation for this match?
