Yeovil reaction thread

[woodsaint]

Good result, 3 points is all that counts at this stage of the season. Win on sat and we are well on our way. Think bompey will struggle to keep the pace till the end of the season. Huddersfield dont travel well and may struggle without pilkington. The only team im worried about is peterboro......however after seeing their next 6 fixtures after carlisle on sat (5 are away), im feeling really good about our chances.

 

Peterboro next six after sat

 

V sheff wed away

V mk dons away

V bristol rovers away

V bompey home

V dag and red away

V huddersfield away

[PokingFun]

Lets hope so.

 

I'm sorry but regardless of wanting to go up this comment is ****ing wrong. You are a complete *****.

 

Anyone that wishes ill on someone over a game of football is a complete idiot in my opinion. You fall absolutely in that category.

[Saint_clark]

Only just got home, train was delayed because some fans assaulted 3 people (no idea if they were Yeovil or Saints fans).

Lallana was unbelievable tonight, should have been motm.

No idea why Forte was getting booed from the off, absolutely retarded and he actually looked alright for his first proper outing.

I am more and more impressed with Gobern every time I see him. Looks more than good enough.

[PokingFun]

strange really to have come away from the last few home games and seen a 4-1 and 3-0 win and feel that we've not played well. I think that sums up how much better we were than the teams we'v played. For most of tonight we weren't good against a poor team, but we won and won well, there is no doubt this team can beat anyone in this league on their day we are winning well at home and not playing well, it sounds stange saying that but that is the truth. Avoiding defeat saturday is crucial, it is vitally important that we dont lose satuday. The pressure is on Bournemouth, they have built this up, they are treating it like a cup final, for us its a visit to a small club that is a promotion rival, over to you Bournemouth, lets see what you've got.

 

I like it, good spiel, you're like a slippery genius!

Please tell me you're kidding. You're not, are you?

[Saint_clark]

Please tell me you're kidding. You're not, are you?

 

Not 100% sure and it only sounded like a couple of people, but there was definitely something there that wasn't cheering. Same with Gobern.

[dubai_phil]

3 goals scored. Hope we've left some in the tank for Saturday.

 

results results results at the moment. So we didn't play well again. the good news is that we still have the chance to get better.

 

Lallana sounded like he had a big influence on the game and is getting back to his best again after the injury lay off so hopefully more to come from him

 

Saints fans at the game jittery and negative, wow there is a REAL shock. Not like we haven't discussed THAT issue to death for the past umpteen years, if we go up in 2nd place they will still spend all of next season moaning that we should have been champions and are rubbish

[St BATman]

I am just back and I am sorry to deflate anyone who hasn’t been and thinks a 3-0 win is satisfactory but that first half we were absolutely dire – the worst I have seen for ages. We looked absolutely clueless and my confidence in Adkins is draining.

 

2nd half obviously a bit better because we put the ball in the net twice and gained an element of control but that was only because Yeovil were awful. We were far better at Walsall last week – believe me.

 

I am going to Bournemouth but we are going to perform a lot better to get anything.

Agree the performance wasn't great but a 3-0 win in the league always has to be satisfactory. Plus it was pretty comfortable in the end. To me it just shows how much we miss Schneiderlin when you see the lack of ability to pass the ball on display, especially first half.Still think we'll make automatic, keep the faith FF

[alpine_saint]

Echo that. Reading some of the Huddersfield forums and they're saying that some of their players walked away in tears.

 

He's a very very good player and it would be a shame to see his talent wasted on a freak injury.

 

Personally, I would ban dune for his comment about hoping Pilkington is seriously injured.

 

We dont need his sort here.

I've already apologised to you alpine_saint. So I won't be pulling your leg again as I now know you can dish it out but you can't take it back. As for calling for people to be banned I wouldn't have expected it from you.

[torsaint]

Lallana's turn before laying on the cross for Barnard's goal sent the whole Yeovil defence the wrong way. It really was sublime. Incidentally Martin missed 5 clearance headers in the first half and tried to gift them a goal with a misguided pass across the front of the penalty area in the second. That said it was a comfortable win but the real pressure will come in the last 6 games. Matt le Tiss was in the Kingsland behind us. Good to see him there.

[sammysaint]

All 3 goals were good build ups great pass and vision for the 1st, great skill by lallana and chambo for the other 2 everything else was poor inc our fans.

 

3 points is 3 points and the attacking play for the goals were good just need to create more chances vs poor teams.

[sandwichsaint]

A good gutsy win in the end.

 

First half we were pretty poor, second half much better.

 

Disappointed for Martin who was given a rare start but on this form easy to see why he's behind Jaidi and Seabourne in the pecking order, but I'm sure he will bounce back.

 

Yeovil were quite tidy for the first 30 minutes but faded very badly in the second half, over those two games you would have to fancy Walsall's chances of staying up over Yeovil's.

 

Atmosphere was shocking (what atmosphere?) - a bit of board banging and singing at the back of the Northam but that hardly reached halfway down. Can't really put it down to 'nerves' either as it wasn't a nervous night. More like we seem to have reached our collective tether watching Saints make hard work of beating very limited sides, have to say I prefer away games by a factor of about 10!

 

I didn't hear much booing or getting on people's cases either, but I did hear a lot about the people around me's love lifes, what they had for tea, and what they watched on telly last night ... and this was is in block 41 row U. Sort it out fans!

[teamsaint]

We are not going to get promoted playing champagne football for 90 minutes and thrashing everybody. if we go up, it will be by keeping solid at the back, having enough firepower to win whether we score early or late, and by everybody, players and fans, sticking together through a really tough 13 games.

Most teams we play will also have something to play for...we will scratch some wins, have the odd break, have a down when we lose or draw a game we "should" win.

 

lets hope that the team have plenty of bottle, and are keeping their best form for the last 10 games when its all decided.

 

There are one or two high profile people on this forum who seem to have an agenda.....

im sure they were bournemouth, just got back from exeter and taking short link to hamworthy, a little3 old lady was picked on which sounds about right

[Wes Tender]

I concur with many others' opinions that although it was a comfortable win in the end, it seemed as if we made hard work of not scoring a hatful, against one of the worst teams I've seen this season. Yeovil were very adept at giving away possession by misplacing a high percentage of their passes, often kicking the ball out of play.

 

But the result is what is important, especially as Exeter did us a favour by beating Bournemouth, who must now be looking nervously over their shoulder just before we play them this Saturday.

 

The referee was flagged up by the Yeovil forum as being the most card-happy in the division and yet apart from a couple of poor decisions, he didn't do too badly. Firstly, he gave Chaplow a yellow when he clearly got the ball, although the tackle he made was typically full-blooded. Secondly, there was the bizarre incident of the corner kick taken by Yeovil. Their player clearly kicked the ball and although it only moved a few feet, it was clearly in play, so Barney was fully entitled to rush over to play the ball. If the referee allowed them to take it again, he ought to have yellow carded their player who had set himself to take it, for time-wasting. When we had a corner shortly after, it would have been amusing for us to have done the same thing, to see what the Ref's reaction would be.

 

It never seemed that we stretched ourselves that much and had their couple of chances produced something, the outcome might have been very different. But thankfully their finishing was truly abyssmal. A better team would have punished us at least twice.

[West End Saint]

Part 1 of the job done we had to win to give us confidence for Saturday if we can go & get the 3 points at Dean Court then it looks promissing for auto promotion.

 

As many have said it was very poor 1st half very pleased we got the early goal 1 of the few bits of quality in the 1st half 2nd half much better but far from convincing however a comfortable 3 0 win job done Lallana is the best player in this league by miles fantastic he has signed a bew contract the lad is a class above.

 

I thought Gobern did well when he came on should have scored lambert I thought had a very good game despite playing to deep & Barny was worth his 2 goals.

 

Onwards to Saturday really looking forward to it I hope Bompey are getting the jitters if we can win this things are looking a lot brighter COYS

[trousers]

Maybe, just maybe, our perceived lacklustre performances against 'lesser' opposition is simply the players instinctively (or otherwise) playing in a lower gear to prevent burn-out, injuries, etc, in preparation for a hell-for-leather push for promotion in the last quarter of the season?

 

Maybe this is what we're starting to witness the beginning of with Bournemouth - i.e. They could be starting to run out of steam.

 

Time will tell.

[trousers]

P.s. Good to hear Gobern did well. I've often wondered if he had the capability required to break into the team but it appears he may just be starting to make an impression. Good news.

agreed, we were right on top of that and I still dont understand why the ref or lino didnt see it. Or if he did see it, why he allowed the retake. In fact, I thought the ref was pretty poor throughout tbh, we were also close to that bad tackle on AL, did he even give a foul for that?

Absolutely spot on. I would would bet we are thinking of the same posters too.

It was a poor first half but why should we bust a gut playing Yeovil especially when there is an important game Saturday.Bottom line is we comfortably won 3-0.

Amazing to me that we won , Bompey lost and still certain "fans" are criticising the team , Adkins and whingeing about the lack of a minutes silence...........

I see that completely differently, the 1st half we played a flat 4-4-2 trying to get the wingers down the flanks. For various reason (mainly the players not putting in the work rate) it was not working.

 

Within a few mins of the start of the 2nd half Nigel had changed to the "diamond system" in midfield with Adam given a free role. For 15-20 mins or so we were producing some wonderful football.

 

For me it is nice to have a Manager who knows when thinks are not working and changes things tactically. Last year when the flat 4-4-2 wasn't working all that happened was a change of personnel in certain positions.

[Saint Charlie]

Does seem like some posters won't be happy until we beat people 7-0 on a regular basis and play well for 90mins with 47 shots on target.

 

Get real, it is L1 football, its about the 3 points and we are reaching form at a good time.

Enough with the intelligent postings. We need to snipe and undermine Adkins which will in turn undermine Cortese this will then lead to Micky Adams as manager (hes got to be good he was a legend here) Lawrie as Chairman.This will then lead to Jobs for Matt, Mike Osman,Benali and so on. Followed by a couple of fans on the board, a highly paid job for a club historian. Instant access to the club for the Daily Echo and hey presto we've got our club back.Perfect.

Agree with you Duncan. The thing is that if we win at Bompey it will not be all over. We will need to keep winning until the end of he season to overtake Huddersfield. To do that we still need to improve. With all respect to Yeovil they are no great shakes and yet with effort and passion they managed to close us down time and time again. We seemed, at times , to lack the nous. If we can't play out from the back then the only other option is over the top. Feck the pretty football if it's not working! And when we do give KD the ball then I'd at least expect the players to moving about to give him options. Even at throw ins it seemed that nobody wanted the ball. This points back to something you raised in another thread, midfield general, we need one. Someone barking at the rest, chiding, encouraging. The last guy I saw do it was Wotton in a ressy game at Staplewood! Having said that, both Toomer and I were surprised that KD actually found his voice last night.

 

None of the teams currently vieing for 2nd are going to give up easily. Let's not be the ones to blink first!

 

Feeling more optimistic than maybe my constructive criticism describes.

Although I for one am perfectly content with a 3-0 win however it was obtained. For me the only important thing is getting out of the 3rd division this season and then moving on to higher things. Saturday will be the big test of the season,we can play ugly as you like because for the next 13 games winning is all that counts.However I expect a few of the upcoming matches to be much sterner tests that the abysmal Yeovil.

There's something in the back of my mind that tells me if we did that we just might win the league?

[LostBoys]

Kingsland seemed impossible to please today. We were passing it round then the ball ended up back with Davis and the Kinglands moaned and groaned like no tomorrow, despite being 1-0 up and in control.

 

The Northam gets so much stick but at least they support.

 

I think that was when Hammond had three men on in front of him against three defenders and turned and passed it back to Butterfield who gave it back to Davis. The only other major moan when Forte got the ball in the clear - the excitement exploded and then fell when they realised it was Forte and collapsed when he made the expected hash of it.

[Glasgow_Saint]

Great result! COYR

 

Guys - support the Saints win, lose or draw ok?

Let's hope so! I'm sure we've got a turbo mode somewhere, but it's a bit hard on the engine...

 

From the reports here it sounds like the Kingsland has taken over the role of the Upper West Stand. I remember reading a report in The Guardian many years ago after we'd beaten Stoke, I think, 5-0 under the floodlights and the reporter wrote about some old moaners' comments as they left the ground.

Duncs - being a purist sure must be tough ;-)

 

I dont think anyone would deny that we would love to see controlled creative and dominating games - a 'mini Barcelona' would bring a bigger smile to everyones face, but lets be realistic - we ARE a league 1 side at present, we have two players that are creative and would would cut it at a much higher level, but the rest are league 1 players - good L1 players but L1 nonetheless. I dont think anyone is under any illusion that this side would win the Championship - and it may well be that currently Adkins is limited in how far he can go personally, but thats not the issue right now and we will see what he can do with a better squad when we are promoted - I doubt Cortese will be 'loyal' for long if given a Championship budget, Adkins fails to deliver?

 

But now is teh time to get behind tehm all and help get them over teh line so cheer up you mmiserable bugger ;-) - 3 points in the bag

He has got a point though. No-one is expecting or asking us to play anything like Barcelona. I'm not bothered about us playing "good" football, but we do struggle at times and in my eyes we don't look like a league winning or promotion team. Games like this coming Saturday will tell us where we really are and I hope I am proved wrong For the resources we have had available, we should have been doing what Brighton are doing and running away with the league, not thrashing it out with Huddersfield, Bournemouth, Peterborough etc, while crossing our fingers and hoping we'll come good for the end of the season.

Love the first one! I had some dinlow behind me who every time Saints played it across the back four retaining posession he was screaming to get it forward, obviously hoping for a long punt forward from the back, but no, when Davis did that he was moaning about that as well, was funny listening to him constantly contradict himself. He as also slagging off Barnard until he scored his second.

Provocative but accurate. I am so bored with people unable to see beyond the end of thier own noses. If a fan can't be happy with a 3-0 win then may I suggest the problem lies with them, not the club.

In name maybe but not in any other way. With the players we have IMO we should be playing better. Brighton are receiving plaudits for the way they play and they are a league one team too. Having said that it was a good win yesterday and I would take winning like that every week. I hope for very few more slip ups along the way because we can't really afford many more.

Wonder why he did this? To improve peoples opinion of him by behaving like a true fan? To see what really goes on in the Northam stand??! Prefers the view from there?

Thats who I thought.

We are on the run in now. Every win is vital. Agreed that we weren't very fluent last night but we are finding a way to grind out a good result. Better to win than play well. Having said that Lambert is a peripheral figure floating around in front of the midfield. Except for getting into the box at set pieces he isn't trying to get on the end of moves any more. He is an excellent passer but he is playing more like a playmaker than our main striker, we need him making more effort to get in on goal.
