Chez Posted 31 March, 2012 Posted 31 March, 2012 It's the manner of the defeat that's so galling. Lazy passes, no vision, no pace, wrong subs, wrong tactics, same old crap performance on TV don't worry with this TV display we'll lull the final six opponents into a false sense of security. We'll still get promoted.
shurlock Posted 31 March, 2012 Posted 31 March, 2012 As long as NA doesn't talk about us dominating possession...
SaintPC Posted 31 March, 2012 Posted 31 March, 2012 In perspective - we knew we wouldn't win every game and yes we've been beaten today, but still a long way to go. It makes the Reading game all the more important, but we are still top, still the team to chase and today's game will hopefully ignite the rest of the season on to becoming champions. Still the best team in the league, still the very best team in the south... COYR
alpine_saint Posted 31 March, 2012 Posted 31 March, 2012 Atrocious. The only positive today is that WHam didnt close the gap. The title was lost today. Auto promotion hangs in the balance. And next up.....
Under Weststand Posted 31 March, 2012 Posted 31 March, 2012 Disappointing result today shocking defending & missed our chances
VectisSaint Posted 31 March, 2012 Posted 31 March, 2012 Absolutely fecking rubbish. No-one was good but Sharp was a disgrace, did nothing and offside so many times (even if at least one was completely wrong). I don't like having a pop at individuals, but he doesn't even look League 2 standard. Once he missed the pen, we may as well have taken him off, maybe too used tolosing at Donny, head down, don't like that attitude. We need to hope that Lambert and Lee are available next week, or at least Lambert and Connors.
beatlesaint Posted 31 March, 2012 Posted 31 March, 2012 The title was lost today. Auto promotion hangs in the balance. In order - Possibly & Bull****
WealdSaint Posted 31 March, 2012 Posted 31 March, 2012 Not a good performance. To be honest the Leeds game could have gone the same way Better a win & a loss than two draws

And next up..... you were right last season about our play off hopes being hanging by a thread so you're probably going to be right again.
Dark Munster Posted 31 March, 2012 Posted 31 March, 2012 Atrocious. The only positive today is that WHam didnt close the gap. The title was lost today. Auto promotion hangs in the balance. And next up..... For West Ham, I presume?

Saint Without a Halo Posted 31 March, 2012 Posted 31 March, 2012 DM still talking about the bleeding obvious a point would have been good for us
Dark Munster Posted 31 March, 2012 Posted 31 March, 2012 Great day for Reading. Bad day for Saints. Disastrous day for West Ham Nightmare day for the Cheats. Cloudy with some silver linings.
Chez Posted 31 March, 2012 Posted 31 March, 2012 Not a good performance. To be honest the Leeds game could have gone the same way Better a win & a loss than two drawsthought we played better than at Leeds to be honest.
S-Clarke Posted 31 March, 2012 Posted 31 March, 2012 There wasn't a single good performance out there. Sharp looked awful and no worth the money we paid for him, the defence were all over the shop, the midfield were no where to be seen when it mattered and the width wasn't there - Lallana was awful. Chappers will probably not play again this season after that first half, he didn't look like a footballer. De Ridder came on and again, made no impact at all. Worst display of the season by a mile, clueless in so many positions. Luckily we'll still probably go up because we've done so well bar thsi result - but we need to forget this quickly, because if we play like that regularly we will finish 3rd - but I still think we'll be fine.
Special K Posted 31 March, 2012 Posted 31 March, 2012 Personally I think he is struggling to come to terms with playing understudy. Yes, but his first touch is awful, he didn't turn or lay off, he didn't find the line or offer an outlet. Poor game from Sharp. Like him and hope he'll display more with his game, just see RL as crucial to promotion as he has no back up, except for chung.
WealdSaint Posted 31 March, 2012 Posted 31 March, 2012 I've not seen enough of sharp to be totally sure but if we go up I think maybe he will need a new club
Saints foreva Posted 31 March, 2012 Posted 31 March, 2012 Play like that next week and we will be embarrassed.
Chez Posted 31 March, 2012 Posted 31 March, 2012 Claridge continues to speak a lot of sense about us.
ThorpG Posted 31 March, 2012 Posted 31 March, 2012 Atrocious. The only positive today is that WHam didnt close the gap. The title was lost today. Auto promotion hangs in the balance. And next up..... We lost the title even though we are in top spot. Wow... Perhaps we are going to be the first team to come top and not be champions.... I am glad that Adkins does not lose hs nerve the way the posters on here do...
WealdSaint Posted 31 March, 2012 Posted 31 March, 2012 Play like that next week and we will be embarrassed. Not sure about that after all Pompey shipped 5 today
S-Clarke Posted 31 March, 2012 Posted 31 March, 2012 Play like that next week and we will be embarrassed. We won't though, so Don't worry. The players need to forget this one, and so do we after we spend a few hours going over it. 1 bad result does not make a season
Under Weststand Posted 31 March, 2012 Posted 31 March, 2012 Atrocious. The only positive today is that WHam didnt close the gap. The title was lost today. Auto promotion hangs in the balance. And next up..... Oh please get a little perspective, we've had a bad day we were never going to win all our games. If we'd scored from the pen or Gully had scored then it may well have been a different result.It didn't happen today. Do you seriously think that West ham will not slip up again this season. We have the League & promotion in our hands. Its ours to lose.
dubai_phil Posted 31 March, 2012 Posted 31 March, 2012 Credit to Holloway. He set up his team to counter us and he had the players to do that. They played well and stopped us playing. yes it could have been different if Sharp had not done a rabbit in headlights impression. NONE of us expected to win every game and the Reading result did us a huge favour
WealdSaint Posted 31 March, 2012 Posted 31 March, 2012 The chant of "premier league your having a laugh" rather came back to haunt us today!
