Crab Lungs Posted 12 April, 2011 Posted 12 April, 2011 As I said below... Pressure doesn't make diamonds, idiots do. Stop it Nigel.
Badger Posted 12 April, 2011 Posted 12 April, 2011 Bring on Rovers, Just not our night, but one defeat in nine is surely ok.
Fowllyd Posted 12 April, 2011 Posted 12 April, 2011 Arse. Thought we'd win. We're still going up though. And not via the play-offs.
alpine_saint Posted 12 April, 2011 Posted 12 April, 2011 Inevitable. We always do things the hard way. Let's hope we dont end up gallant playoff losers again.
thorpie the sinner Posted 12 April, 2011 Posted 12 April, 2011 Just ditch the effing diamond!!!!!!! Much better at 442, please listen Nige!!!!!!
thorpie the sinner Posted 12 April, 2011 Posted 12 April, 2011 Its still in our hands though!! Learn from it and move on!!
Spudders Posted 12 April, 2011 Posted 12 April, 2011 Inevitable. We always do things the hard way. What Alps says!
Roger Posted 12 April, 2011 Posted 12 April, 2011 As I said below... Pressure doesn't make diamonds, idiots do. Stop it Nigel. He has done a lot of good things but seriosuly nigel you are not bloody mourinho. Stop mucking around. Stephens sounded gash. We have been lucky a few times, lucky to win sat and lucky to draw at charlton. People saying we dont miss morgan but weve been fortunate recently and our centre mid is poor. A lot of these players arent good enough for a higher level imo.
Crab Lungs Posted 12 April, 2011 Posted 12 April, 2011 Its still in our hands though!! Learn from it and move on!! Let's hope nervous Nige ditches the diamond then!
Whitey Grandad Posted 12 April, 2011 Posted 12 April, 2011 Oh well, one game in hand now and our goal difference has suffered a little but we are still in a very strong position.
Liquidshokk Posted 12 April, 2011 Posted 12 April, 2011 Hope laughing at Bournmuff freefalling doesnt come back to haunt us.....
hutch Posted 12 April, 2011 Posted 12 April, 2011 5 days ago I'd have taken 2 points from Orient & Rochdale, so I'm not unhappy. We are going up
Pugwash Posted 12 April, 2011 Posted 12 April, 2011 Put it behind us, move on. But learn the lessons, Nige.
Saint_clark Posted 12 April, 2011 Author Posted 12 April, 2011 Wake up call. No more complacency please... Pre-match everyone was saying this would be a tough game, indeed much tougher than Orient.
Stu Man Do Posted 12 April, 2011 Posted 12 April, 2011 Diamond formation messed us up again although only via radio it sounded like they just played around us far too easily. Hopefully he will bin it off now until he has his first choice players to play it! Disappointing evening you could just tell it wasn't going to be our evening when Forte decides to shoot from 20 yrds rather than keep running it in for the easier finish (going on the taters viewpoint!). Onwards and upwards for Saturday!
Roger Posted 12 April, 2011 Posted 12 April, 2011 Bring on the wrist slitting. After losing to a team with 3,800 attendance at this stage of the season I think its certainly partially justified.

A lot of these players arent good enough for a higher level imo. From what I could gather the fullbacks were once again exposed without having someone in front of them... worse still, we played a diamond on a WIDE pitch :-/ Thirdly, it just seems as if there is no cohesive shape and everyone just floats around where they want, bumping into eachother..
hackedoff Posted 12 April, 2011 Posted 12 April, 2011 Prime fixture for this sort of perfomance/result, not at all surprised. They will probably do us again in the play-offs.
Saint_clark Posted 12 April, 2011 Author Posted 12 April, 2011 After losing to a team with 3,800 attendance at this stage of the season I think its certainly partially justified. What does the attendance have to do with their teams performance?
Cascadia Saint Posted 12 April, 2011 Posted 12 April, 2011 It wasn't like we didn't have the chances...

Roger Posted 12 April, 2011 Posted 12 April, 2011 Pre-match everyone was saying this would be a tough game, indeed much tougher than Orient. Think he meant the team.
View From The Top Posted 12 April, 2011 Posted 12 April, 2011 I don't think anyone is really shocked. Disappointed yes, shocked, no. Didn't think we'd win both away games.
scotty Posted 12 April, 2011 Posted 12 April, 2011 I'd be interested to hear from the 900-odd saints lads at the game what the pitch was like.
Mr Saints Posted 12 April, 2011 Posted 12 April, 2011 This is exactly why we don't want the play-offs. Still in the driving seat and still confident, bring on Saturday.
thorpie the sinner Posted 12 April, 2011 Posted 12 April, 2011 Credit where credits due though, well done to Brighton! Most consistent team in this league by a street!! Now bring on sat!!!
trousers Posted 12 April, 2011 Posted 12 April, 2011 Rochdale spent the last 41 years in Division 4/League 2....go figure...
Spudders Posted 12 April, 2011 Posted 12 April, 2011 a bold comment, sir.... It would be much too simple for Saints to get this all in the bag though wouldn't it! I can still see this going down to the last game of the season for us & second spot!
View From The Top Posted 12 April, 2011 Posted 12 April, 2011 After losing to a team with 3,800 attendance at this stage of the season I think its certainly partially justified. What a mongish way of thinking.
Under Weststand Posted 12 April, 2011 Posted 12 April, 2011 S**t result consign it to history & move on to Saturday. Need a big win to put us up for the away trip to Brighton(well done and deserved Champions).
obelisk Posted 12 April, 2011 Posted 12 April, 2011 It wasn't like we didn't have the chances... Yep, poor finishing again by the look of it.
LGTL Posted 12 April, 2011 Posted 12 April, 2011 Please don't finish 3rd and have to play this lot twice again...
rocknrollman no2 Posted 12 April, 2011 Posted 12 April, 2011 Just disappointed we have lost to Rochdale twice this season.My Rochdale supporting mates cant believe their luck.
Roger Posted 12 April, 2011 Posted 12 April, 2011 What does the attendance have to do with their teams performance?[/quote Means we have more money ffs. Just have a pop at anyone who is dissapointed and frustrated by this result. Happy clapper.
Liquidshokk Posted 12 April, 2011 Posted 12 April, 2011 It wasn't like we didn't have the chances... Shame they came after going 2-0 down though. At least Adkins corrected what was wrong but just became unlucky
Saints foreva Posted 12 April, 2011 Posted 12 April, 2011 Better 2nd half performance but we really did play **** poor in the first half, due to the formation.
Cascadia Saint Posted 12 April, 2011 Posted 12 April, 2011 If we had salvaged a draw then people would be a lot happier, but all it would've meant is +1 point and +2 on the GD. If we weren't going to win then a loss isn't much worse than a draw. It obviously all comes down to our reaction on Saturday, but there is no reason we can't still do this. We are 2nd with a game in hand, that's a fact. COYS!
