View From The Top Posted 15 February, 2014 Share Posted 15 February, 2014 Can't be arsed to trawl through the threads, especially as the twin c**ts of Glasgow and Alpine will be all over them but today was the 1st time in a very long time that I've heard our travelling support vent their spleen with so much poison. Even after the long drive home I'm still fuming with the club for throwing away a genuine chance of Wembley. C**ts. That said, the free park and ride at Sunderland is the mutts nutts.

corky morris Posted 15 February, 2014 Share Posted 15 February, 2014 Saints let us fans down today. Perez comments afterwards made it even worse! City & Chelsea put out 1st teams & have games mid week. Gutted! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Verbal Kint Posted 15 February, 2014 Share Posted 15 February, 2014 Absolutely disgusted with the attitude of MP. We have just thrown away one of the best chances we will have of winning a major trophy. Tiredness etc etc is all ********. If today had been a premier league game Morgan, Boruc, Jay and Fonte would have been out there from the start. Fans travel all that way and MP can't be arsed.

Roger Posted 15 February, 2014 Share Posted 15 February, 2014 Tbh it was pretty terrible management. Great chance of this team being remembered now I don't think they will.

fanimal Posted 15 February, 2014 Share Posted 15 February, 2014 Boruc was ill; Fonte injured (see his leg?); Morgan everyone said was knackered at Hull, also Cork; Wanyama and JWP have been 1st team regulars; the only weak point was Guly for Jay Rod. I am bitterly disappointed but I do not buy this weak team we don't care bull****, we had 3 really good chances just didn't take them. Thats football!

Turkish Posted 15 February, 2014 Share Posted 15 February, 2014 What was the mood in the away end Dave, Ade? I was very disappointed to see the line up but still thought it was a side capable of winning. But the performance was so sloppy and poor, it seemed to reflect the attitude of the manager who really appeared not to give a toss about the cups. It's the first time in a long time I've been angry watching a saints match. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even the bingo bus brigade were giving it plenty. As I said in the match reaction Dave I felt for those that travelled, but it was entirely predictable I am afraid, and as such was of little interest to me beyond the point of team selection. Sure I would have liked to have won but if the team are suitably chastened by their poor performance as suggested by the Luke Shaw Twitter feeds and they go and do job on West Ham next week then the world will be back in kilter, or at least the world that revolves around this board. My advice is to get the Bianchi out tomorrow, weather permitting and go and slay a few Strava segments. You know it makes sense! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IFHP Posted 15 February, 2014 Share Posted 15 February, 2014 I would love it if no Saints fans attended our next cup game and hit the club where it hurts. As soon as the team was announced I was ****ing fuming, thought to be honest it wasn't a surprise, so glad my head ruled my heart today and stayed at home. Feel sorry for every Saints fan that spent time and money that went to Sunderland today the club really should reimburse them. Still ****ing fuming with the management teams policy the ****ing ******s. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lighthouse Posted 15 February, 2014 Share Posted 15 February, 2014 Genuinely think the club should refund the fans tickets AND travel expenses. The money is bad enough but for the fans that wasted 2 days of their life (I'm not one of them) traveling to that game and back... well you are quite right to be outraged. Lambert's miss summed it up. Whilst that can happen to the very best of players, it is indicative of a lack of effort, concentration, preparation and belief. If they had been playing for a place in a World Cup final, I'd wager Rickie would have taken the net off with that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ladysaint Posted 15 February, 2014 Share Posted 15 February, 2014 Just home, to me it's not the money it is the sheer disregard to the fans by not playing our best available team, no wonder the magic has gone out of the cup. Nothing wrong with the players picked but they were not our strongest team. If we had lost with our strongest team playing then we would have no argument. The cup was ours for the taking.

KingTed Posted 15 February, 2014 Share Posted 15 February, 2014 Made it back. First thing to say is Sunderland have great fans. Chatting in the pub before hand they, like Poyet, had written the game off because "we are in one final and need to stay up. Saints have a great chance to win the FA Cup so you are going to play your best players". How wrong they were! As was said on 606 and by all the fans leaving the ground we did not play our best team and that was madness. Yes it was a good team but not our best. Once JayRod and MS came on Sunderland were in full retreat. Was it worth protecting these players...time will tell but I doubt it. Anyway no one orders an open top bus for a parade when you come 8th in the EPL. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
