Sheaf Saint Posted 10 November, 2012 Share Posted 10 November, 2012 Architects of our own downfall once again. Swansea were there for the taking and we gifted them back into it. Played much better I thought with Cork in CM instead of Davis, and we had two good shouts for a penalty, but that doesn't excuse the fact we should have taken all three points there today. Gutted.

Saintandy666 Posted 10 November, 2012 Share Posted 10 November, 2012 Well, it's a better performance and it's points. Let's see if we can build on that. Our midfield is back to full strength, but I feel like our defence isn't good enough. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

redkeith Posted 10 November, 2012 Share Posted 10 November, 2012 Good performance. One mistake all game and punished. Definite penalty, certain booking for williams which was his second. Ref bottled it. Keep that team and we will pick up more points. They need to learn that if in doubt put it in row Z or even AA Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ohio Saint Posted 10 November, 2012 Share Posted 10 November, 2012 I honestly could not keep up with the game properly due to tech issues. Looking forward to the highlights. Saw some good stuff in between tech issues. Overall though, a bit happy that we sounded better, ****ed off that we just can't seem to kill anything off.

Monk Posted 10 November, 2012 Share Posted 10 November, 2012 Disgrace, same ****ing idiots & why the ****ing hell has Danny Foxx thrown the ball backwards to Yoshida when we have seconds left.

CanadaSaint Posted 10 November, 2012 Share Posted 10 November, 2012 With the transfer window firmly shut, and a lack of quality depth in key positions, no manager in the world can do much about individual mistakes. We're looking better and we have no choice but to keep plugging away but the odds grow longer every week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Edmonton Saint Posted 10 November, 2012 Share Posted 10 November, 2012 Not good enough. Adkins showed his mettle today by his bizarre decision to bring on Fox after they had just equalised. Time for him to walk and hope that somebody else can come in and get them defending. Also not impressed with gazzaniga to be honest, seems to be a lovefest on here for him, but I can hardly remember him making a save in the games he has been in goal. Boruc next week please.

SaintRobbie Posted 10 November, 2012 Share Posted 10 November, 2012 We were BETTER. We had Ricky Lambert on for the whole game. We looked better defensively until the young keeper Gazza made that foolish error. Not Adkins fault. Good substitutions. Good team selection. Good tactics. We can iMPROVE with NA and more experience. On this performance we can stay up IMHO. Stupid goalkeeper error for the clearance and Nathan Dyer was always going to score - it always happens to Saints, they come back to haunt us our ex players!!! One error. One PLAYER error. For me this was the most encouraging performance yet. More solid defensively and its great seeing Lambert, Clyne, Gaston Ramirez, Lallana particularly playing so well. Spiderman needs to be a little less French and more level headed sometimes for me, but he delivers as much as he makes mistakes. Puncheon is looking stronger too. There's HOPE. Well done Nigel Adkins. Take a sharp slap around the face Gazza. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Edmonton Saint Posted 10 November, 2012 Share Posted 10 November, 2012 Roll on the January transfer window. Why?

There when Franny scored Posted 10 November, 2012 Share Posted 10 November, 2012 The challenge on AL by Monk was as clear a foul as you will see. 90% sure it was in the area as well from the replays. The one on Clyne in the first half was also a foul anywhere else on the pitch. I'm amazed to see threads blaming the manger today. We actually defended well except for their goal - must be so disheartening for Adkins. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shroppie Posted 10 November, 2012 Share Posted 10 November, 2012 Agreed. Disappointing, but progress. Also unlucky. Sacking NA after that would be ridiculous. Bring on QPR. The recovery starts here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

the stain Posted 10 November, 2012 Share Posted 10 November, 2012 Better than usual. Just a silly mistake at the back cost us. We should have had a couple of penalties. We seemed more solid than usual. Shame we didn't win, it is certainly not a disaster. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RobM Posted 10 November, 2012 Share Posted 10 November, 2012 A much better performance, better going forward, more creative, more confident, better defensively... but yet again an individual error cost us dear. You can't blame the manager, formation or anything but the individual if they decide to do something stupid. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OttawaSaint Posted 10 November, 2012 Share Posted 10 November, 2012 Gutted! We weren't great but did enough to win it, but made a terrible, terrible mistake again. Mind you we'd have probably only let one in at the death anyway had we been leading going in to stoppage time. My main concern is that we just don't seem to be able to lift our confidence. Too much nervous fannying around with the ball when incisive passing/shooting is needed. The corners we had were awful, only one produced a moment of danger. Pretty clear for everyone when Gaston puts both hands in the air that it is going right over the box to Ricky on the far side, talk about telegraphing it. At the death, Puncheon had a good chance to shoot but just ****ed around with it, not willing to take a chance and blast it. Adam is too powderpuff, all that diving around makes refs less likely to give us a pen, and sure enough when he got mugged on the edge of the box the ref didn't want to know. I liked the idea of Gaston and Ricky mixing up the free kick, but around the back to Fonte? All a bit weird. From the way Adkins looked at the final whistle, I think it's time up, hope not, I don't see anyone decent enough to replace him at the moment.

Ohio Saint Posted 10 November, 2012 Share Posted 10 November, 2012 not impressed with gazzaniga to be honest, seems to be a lovefest on here for him, He is very young, and does quite well at this level even at his age. He will be a really good keeper in the future, and at the moment, he has proved himself the best of our availablr keepers when taking into account the fitness and attitude of Boruc and the aging of Kelvin.

MOSaint Posted 10 November, 2012 Share Posted 10 November, 2012 I'm more bemused by the fact that we made no attacking substitutions after the equaliser. Ramirez was tiring badly and had faded out of the game, should have put Rodriguez or Mayuka on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JackFrost Posted 10 November, 2012 Share Posted 10 November, 2012 Ah well could have been worse, at least we didn't lose 2-0 to Bury *bursts out laughing* We do need to start picking up wins and fast. If we don't beat QPR Adkins has to go for me if we want to stay in this division this season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SaintNeil90 Posted 10 November, 2012 Share Posted 10 November, 2012 Frustrated is the best way to describe my feelings. One mistake has cost us again. If it wasn't for that we'd all be sat here enjoying a conversation about what an improvement that game was. IF Adkins keeps his job this week, then a first win for QPR next Saturday, will seal the sack in my opinion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ed Rooney Posted 10 November, 2012 Share Posted 10 November, 2012 Played decent enough but still need more zip and tempo. Again shocking defensive error, you do not **** about with the football when you need a clean sheet and a win. Other than the mistake the keeper again showed signs to me that he is another clown in the Bialkowski mould. Yoshida had no awareness as to his surroundings when he peeled off to get the ball off the keeper. Very basic poor errors again Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gaz Posted 10 November, 2012 Share Posted 10 November, 2012 Had a fiver on us to win and a fiver on them to win. A result either way would have left me £12 better off or £17something better off. Guessed we'd have a 'mare and lose by 4 or sneak a win so would have been up. Draw meant I lost. Grrrr. Good old Saints, always costing me money.

CanadaSaint Posted 10 November, 2012 Share Posted 10 November, 2012 Even though, in truth, we played well and deserved to win, we're starting to look like a team waiting for something bad to happen. And, with that mindset, it often does. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Your comments about Adkins are staggering. Shaw started his first PL game today at 17 (youngest every Prem appearance for Saints) and was tired. We needed to score and Fox, for all his defensive limitations, has an excellent delivery from set plays. Exactly what you need when time is running out.

If it was anyone other than the man who got us promoted he'd have been gone months ago I cannot point out anything that another manager would do differently. We play our best players, play good football and they mess it up. "don't have a poor touch to let Dyer in to score". Brilliant. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sfc1976 Posted 10 November, 2012 Share Posted 10 November, 2012 Obviously can't be Adkin's fault when a player does something ridiculous like that. But a cancer of incompetence does seem to have taken hold within the team and has been evident all season, and for that he has to held responsible. On a separate issue, why does the like changing the left back after we concede? He did the same against Brom. Hardly seems the traditional response.

badgerx16 Posted 10 November, 2012 Share Posted 10 November, 2012 We were generally better at the back, ( except ofor ur obligatory 'suicide' moment ), and the midfield were much more in control with Cork replacing Davis. However, Adam is getting a reputation as a 'Suarez', and Rickie seems to lack confidence - regardless of letting in the goal we really should have been scoring 2 or 3 against that team, and the way we played in the first few games I think we would have. We seemed to completely bottle things when we took the lead. Rather than close the game out by pushing for #2 we sat back and invited them on. I also thought Puncheon had one of his better games for us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
