Horton Heath Saint Posted 27 March, 2013 Posted 27 March, 2013 Press hard on two central defenders with pace. Play high diagonal balls to Clynne. Play at least five in midfield to close down Cork and Spider to supply SRL. Man mark Adam and Jay hard. Shoot at keeper at all times. Bit like any other opposition team talk I guess!!
LVSaint Posted 27 March, 2013 Posted 27 March, 2013 Why would you shoot at a keeper? Boruc would go bonkers if someone tried to shoot him
westofshannonsaint Posted 27 March, 2013 Posted 27 March, 2013 Why would you shoot at a keeper? he won't catch the ball and it will bounce off someone's arse into the net. It would be interesting to bee a fly on the wall when the two managers meet. For Nige, it must be like meeting his ex wives new fella. I am not worried about this game, NA (as much as I respect him), always fluffed the 'big' occasions.
stardustonmyfeet Posted 27 March, 2013 Posted 27 March, 2013 Always fluffed the big occasions? Can only think of Reading last season.
Saint Garrett Posted 28 March, 2013 Posted 28 March, 2013 Always fluffed the big occasions? Can only think of Reading last season. Skates twice...
Saint_clark Posted 28 March, 2013 Posted 28 March, 2013 Skates twice... West Ham twice, Coventry I'd say were all big occasions as well.
Appy Posted 28 March, 2013 Posted 28 March, 2013 Always fluffed the big occasions? Can only think of Reading last season. Middlesbrough last year, Last 10 minutes of United at home.
Stepgar Posted 28 March, 2013 Posted 28 March, 2013 Let's not start slating NA he has done us proud. I think he will win the game. I can just feel it. Every ruing points to a home win. First home game, against old club, knows the saints team inside out, live on Sky. Chance to probe everyone at St Marys wrong etc etc.
brmbrm Posted 28 March, 2013 Posted 28 March, 2013 I think we're going to steam roll reading. Yeah. "Who are you", "easy, easy", etc etc.... I can remember far too many games where we were complacent and overconfident and LOSE. Lots of then seem to be related to relegations unfortunately. To be honest i think there is not tat much difference between the teams who are 8th and 18th in the prem, es, some difference, but not that much. The point i am trying to make is that there i VERY LITTLE DIFFERENCE, if any, between us playing poorly-ish and Reading playing well-ish. So there is zeero time for complacency
John Boy Saint Posted 28 March, 2013 Posted 28 March, 2013 The one thing Reading will do is come out and play its in their make up, it is also in NA's blueprint to come out and play and not to park the bus. We play so much better against teams who play this way, and with MPs style of hunting down teams it will either be a cagey draw or a v Norwich style 4-5 goal fest. Probably a bit of a Damp squib versus the big Nigel Adkins v Southampton build up on Sky.

Lallana's Left Peg Posted 28 March, 2013 Posted 28 March, 2013 I expect any lift Reading will get from Adkins will be negated by the determination our lads will have to win for their new Manager, to beat Adkins, and just to beat Reading anyway. I don't think Adkins will be given a choice to sit back at home - they sacked a Manager because he did that so if it is an open game then you'd like to think it would come down to quality and we'd win.
Viking Warrior Posted 28 March, 2013 Posted 28 March, 2013 Right lad we draw a red line ten yards in side our half . If saints cross that line chop them down .lambert is a donkey and unless he is in the box he will not trouble us . Lalkana is a o e trick pony .keep the ball away from cork and Spider-Man and shaw and we will win easily . You should remember lads when I was managing them I had to use vinegar and brown paper to keep the team together . Make the saints sinners but remember the red line
