WealdSaint Posted 8 December, 2012 Posted 8 December, 2012 Job done. Should have been a lot more than 1-0. Payback for last season!
Glasgow_Saint Posted 8 December, 2012 Posted 8 December, 2012 On 15 need a view of the new sexy table
BotleySaint Posted 8 December, 2012 Posted 8 December, 2012 So relieved we made it over the line. Dominant performance but lacked that second goal. But a good days work for today. Must improve the finishing though if we are going to survive still.

buctootim Posted 8 December, 2012 Posted 8 December, 2012 Up to 15th. Makes the comments of a month ago look a bit silly.
redkeith Posted 8 December, 2012 Posted 8 December, 2012 Enjoyed the last 2 minutes, very relaxed as the score had already come up on SKY. Decent performance, good clean sheet. I was only ever worried about free kicks and corners for them. Out of the bottom 3 and 2 weeks to prepare for the next one.
Plumstead_Saint Posted 8 December, 2012 Posted 8 December, 2012 UP to 15th and a clean sheet Just about makes up for ref's appalling decision on puncheon's first goal. The keeper had his arms round Yoshida!
Window Cleaner Posted 8 December, 2012 Posted 8 December, 2012 Not a classic but we dominated them and ran down trhe clock from a long way out. 15th... can't be bad. Lads deserve a few days off.
WealdSaint Posted 8 December, 2012 Posted 8 December, 2012 Wheee 15th......due to a better gd than Villa & Wigan
Nexstar Posted 8 December, 2012 Posted 8 December, 2012 Really good performance, could have easily scored more. Thought we were very solid at the back and now up to 15th!
Greenridge Posted 8 December, 2012 Posted 8 December, 2012 Up to 15th. Makes the comments of a month ago look a bit silly. And two of those spots gained on GD (I think) which was almost unthinkable a few weeks back. Sunderland next.
Smirking_Saint Posted 8 December, 2012 Posted 8 December, 2012 Brilliant performance from the lads, it looked to be men vs boys out there, Reading just couldnt deal with anything at all, we had more bite in the middle, probably lacked a proper final ball but we dominated V happy
St.Jeweller Posted 8 December, 2012 Posted 8 December, 2012 Would Reading fans like to swap there shiny trophy for our '6' points
Window Cleaner Posted 8 December, 2012 Posted 8 December, 2012 Just about makes up for ref's appalling decision on puncheon's first goal. The keeper had his arms round Yoshida! Dunno, that Cork tackle in the box could have easily gone Reading's way on another occasion as well.
Micky Posted 8 December, 2012 Posted 8 December, 2012 Positives - 3 points, clean sheet, some good performances. Negatives - didn't convert enough chances.
WealdSaint Posted 8 December, 2012 Posted 8 December, 2012 Only saw the 2nd half, but have to say I can't see Reading staying up based on what i saw. Wheras I think we have a good chance
Edmonton Saint Posted 8 December, 2012 Posted 8 December, 2012 I was like WTF when Guly came on, but must say he looked quite lively in the last 10 minutes and should have scored. Good Win and out of the bottom 3. Another huge game against Sunderland in two weeks..
yamms_schmitz Posted 8 December, 2012 Posted 8 December, 2012 Ref was poor. Reading were below par. We were good. we might just stay up.
SaintRobbie Posted 8 December, 2012 Posted 8 December, 2012 Well done. Couldve been a higher scoreline as well. Nice seeing Kelvin back, somehow I feel safer! (Never thought I'd say that in this league!) Good 2-2 draw for us - thanks Agent Redknapp.... we need Wigan to fall and QPR to go down!
Mr Saints Posted 8 December, 2012 Posted 8 December, 2012 **** off McDermott, **** off Le Fondre and **** off Jason Roberts. The most comfortable 1 nil I've seen for a long time.
Glasgow_Saint Posted 8 December, 2012 Posted 8 December, 2012 What a turn-a-round on the defending 4 goals against in our last 6 games........ Was 16 against in 6 games previous
Window Cleaner Posted 8 December, 2012 Posted 8 December, 2012 What a turn-a-round on the defending 4 against in last 6 games........ Was 16 afainst in 6 games previous Guess we've adapted to our level now, Shaw looks a vast improvement on Fox and José and Maya look competent now.
tpbury Posted 8 December, 2012 Posted 8 December, 2012 be I've stayed up to 3am to watch this! We closed out a really essential game without effing it up! This is a top performance. Be happy!!! 1
Window Cleaner Posted 8 December, 2012 Posted 8 December, 2012 Did KD play well ? Virtually unemployed but the little he had to do he did in an acceptable fashion. Still gives me the shudders though.
Nexstar Posted 8 December, 2012 Posted 8 December, 2012 My favourite quote from the Reading forum: "Southampton were absolutely dire and we were far worse than them today."
Window Cleaner Posted 8 December, 2012 Posted 8 December, 2012 We will look back at this result as ****ing huge. But in the PL you're only as good as your next result.
Glasgow_Saint Posted 8 December, 2012 Posted 8 December, 2012 Guess we've adapted to our level now, Shaw looks a vast improvement on Fox and José and Maya look competent now. Shaw does look class........ Hope he stays fit and doesnt get head turned in Jan
Nutwood2 Posted 8 December, 2012 Posted 8 December, 2012 Very well done lads. Made them look second rate. Punch, keep doing what you do. Brilliant.
Window Cleaner Posted 8 December, 2012 Posted 8 December, 2012 My favourite quote from the Reading forum: "Southampton were absolutely dire and we were far worse than them today." We weren't dire but Reading were totally crap.
Dalek2003 Posted 8 December, 2012 Posted 8 December, 2012 Virtually unemployed but the little he had to do he did in an acceptable fashion. Still gives me the shudders though. Thanks...due for a run as our first team goalie and perhaps a new goalie in Jan ?
Window Cleaner Posted 8 December, 2012 Posted 8 December, 2012 Shaw does look class........ Hope he stays fit and doesnt get head turned in Jan Doubt it, he's getting a regular game with us, don't know if he'd get that at the Arse or Chelsea.
RobM Posted 8 December, 2012 Posted 8 December, 2012 Guess we've adapted to our level now, Shaw looks a vast improvement on Fox and José and Maya look competent now. Agreed, that CB pairing seems to be quite solid now, they're doing the simple things really effectively. They've also found their roles - Fonte gets forward, Yoshi stays back and covers. A good performance today all-round, another clean sheet and most importantly, three points. Not an amazing game, we should have made more of our chances and dominance, but it's hard to grumble too much when you were so dominant.
Glasgow_Saint Posted 8 December, 2012 Posted 8 December, 2012 My favourite quote from the Reading forum: "Southampton were absolutely dire and we were far worse than them today." Its like our forum after 5/6 games..... Muppets like DPS starting 1,000 "mcdermott out" threads
UpweySaint Posted 8 December, 2012 Posted 8 December, 2012 Good to see KD back in and he looked solid, ok not a major test but you can only play whats in front of you. Really happy to see him helping Yosh, imagine the lad needs a bit of support, has not exactly been easy for him to settle. Shaw, again, looks assured and confident. Has really shocked me just how comfortable he has looked! Rodriguez actually looked ok today, worked hard, found some nice space. On another day he'd have had a goal for sure ... Punch again for me looked great! Causes so many problems, especially when a third player comes out to support him and clyne, be it cork or lambert (who was solid as ever!). Only negatives lallana's injury (GULP!) annnnd our fans booing guly. Came on, worked hard, looked good. Credit to those who sung his name when he was on. Like him or not he is one of our players and we should back him when he is on the pitch in the red and pinstripe ...
Window Cleaner Posted 8 December, 2012 Posted 8 December, 2012 .. Muppets like DPS starting 1,000 "mcdermott out" threads There they might be right, looks clueless. Poor signings as well. I could have told him Guthrie was shîte, unfortunately for him he didn't ask me.
Saint J 77 Posted 8 December, 2012 Posted 8 December, 2012 I am very pleased with that result. Its a clean sheet and 3 points maybe we should have scored more but we are up to 15th now, so you have got to be happy if you are a Saints fan tonight Its also a little pay back for the result at home last season when we should have won!
Glasgow_Saint Posted 8 December, 2012 Posted 8 December, 2012 There they might be right, looks clueless. Poor signings as well. I could have told him Guthrie was shîte, unfortunately for him he didn't ask me. Where are the signings? Injured??
Roger Posted 8 December, 2012 Posted 8 December, 2012 Dave merrington said "rickie lambert gave great centre forwards performance and was such a unselfish performance from him" his defending from set pieces was awesome.
Window Cleaner Posted 8 December, 2012 Posted 8 December, 2012 I noticed Gaston was harranguing the ref most of the time, do you think that's an exercise the club have given him to improve his English ?
Glasgow_Saint Posted 8 December, 2012 Posted 8 December, 2012 Dave merrington said "rickie lambert gave great centre forwards performance and was such a unselfish performance from him" his defending from set pieces was awesome. You feeling better after that result?
Roger Posted 8 December, 2012 Posted 8 December, 2012 You feeling better after that result? I am thankyou very much.
Window Cleaner Posted 8 December, 2012 Posted 8 December, 2012 Where are the signings? Injured?? Injured, not good enough, I have no idea, the commentators did make quite a lot of reference to their side being totally unimproved since the NPC though.
buctootim Posted 8 December, 2012 Posted 8 December, 2012 I noticed Gaston was harranguing the ref most of the time, do you think that's an exercise the club have given him to improve his English ? More likely you stay on the pitch longer if you only tell what you think of him in Spanish....
Smirking_Saint Posted 8 December, 2012 Posted 8 December, 2012 They signed pogrebnyak (injured), Guthrie (crap or injured or both), Mcleary (ok, doesnt start), Marriappa (nothing special). Thats it I think
