ALWAYS_SFC Posted 4 January, 2015 Posted 4 January, 2015 Come on then...someone must have been shyt...its the SWF way
Saint_clark Posted 4 January, 2015 Posted 4 January, 2015 Bet we get minimum allocation and £20 tickets.
Baird of the land Posted 4 January, 2015 Posted 4 January, 2015 Sounded like a frustrating display. Hoping we can play much better against united. Glad to still be in the cup but could have done without a replay.
obelisk Posted 4 January, 2015 Posted 4 January, 2015 Saints inability to convert chances into goals would seem to have struck again. Oh well. Replay it is then.
Leicestersaint Posted 4 January, 2015 Posted 4 January, 2015 Lack of quality up front. I am surprised that Koeman didn't bring on another substitute - I would have tried Seager.
Edmonton Saint Posted 4 January, 2015 Posted 4 January, 2015 at least there is a good chance the replay will be on tv at the minute..
ALWAYS_SFC Posted 4 January, 2015 Posted 4 January, 2015 Bet we get minimum allocation and £20 tickets. Why does it matter to you, you wanted us to lose rather than draw..
Saints foreva Posted 4 January, 2015 Posted 4 January, 2015 Bet we get minimum allocation and £20 tickets. Well they've got to give us around 4,500 tickets if we want them. Sounded like we lacked creativity today. Good chance a replay will be on Tele.
Colinjb Posted 4 January, 2015 Posted 4 January, 2015 Well, out last trip to Portman Road went ok. Fingers crossed for a repeat of that.
Shroppie Posted 4 January, 2015 Posted 4 January, 2015 As we play Man U on Sun, assume the replay will be Weds?
Viking Warrior Posted 4 January, 2015 Posted 4 January, 2015 Tell me all you moaners . Were you at the game or just listening to the game on the radio . I will wait till I heR back from those at the game before making comment
badgerx16 Posted 4 January, 2015 Posted 4 January, 2015 Saints must travel to Portman Road midweek, between trips to Old Trafford and St. James' Park, after playing out a 1-1 draw with Ipswich Town at St. Mary's. So that'll be 3 away wins in a week :-)
Window Cleaner Posted 4 January, 2015 Posted 4 January, 2015 Well they've got to give us around 4,500 tickets if we want them. Sounded like we lacked creativity today. Good chance a replay will be on Tele. Didn't seem to lack creativity from what I heard, seemed to lack efficacity perhaps.
bilbot79 Posted 4 January, 2015 Posted 4 January, 2015 Awful. Should have let one in in the last minute
Turkish Posted 4 January, 2015 Posted 4 January, 2015 Bet we get minimum allocation and £20 tickets. You'll be in the home end cheering on Ipswich so what does it matter?
ALWAYS_SFC Posted 4 January, 2015 Posted 4 January, 2015 So that'll be 3 away wins in a week :-) Like your thinking:toppa:
Saint_clark Posted 4 January, 2015 Posted 4 January, 2015 You'll be in the home end cheering on Ipswich so what does it matter? Give it a rest, now we've got the replay I want us to go through, I just didn't want the replay in the sodding first place, especially considering we're gonna be up and down the country 3 times in less than a week now.
ALWAYS_SFC Posted 4 January, 2015 Posted 4 January, 2015 Awful. Should have let one in in the last minute Skate??...or bellend or both?
simo Posted 4 January, 2015 Posted 4 January, 2015 I never watched or listened just followed it on here and the BBC from that I deduce long was rubbish , pelle missed too many chances and Ron should of brought on Segar!
alehouseboys Posted 4 January, 2015 Posted 4 January, 2015 No one can really have a pop if we now a stick few kids in for the replay coming between Man U and Newcastle away. What a week of travelling!
Patrick Bateman Posted 4 January, 2015 Posted 4 January, 2015 Skate??...or bellend or both? In a Venn representation of bellend and Skate, the 'Skate circle' sits wholly within the 'bellend circle'.
mcjwills Posted 4 January, 2015 Posted 4 January, 2015 So that'll be 3 away wins in a week :-) Think the whole first team squad will spend the whole week away. Further chance for bonding and improving.
CanadaSaint Posted 4 January, 2015 Posted 4 January, 2015 It's a winnable replay in a prestigious cup that is very much worth winning. Using the "I'd rather go out than go to a replay" logic, what's the point of even trying to qualify for Europe, because that really will be fixture congestion? If we want a successful club, this is the kind of thing that goes with it. We might as well start getting used to it.
washsaint Posted 4 January, 2015 Posted 4 January, 2015 Pretty poor from Saints: Dave Merrington, I think, had it spot on that we don't threaten enough when Pelle is the lone front man. Look how good Saints have been with Mane off Pelle: we'll miss him for sure. We just don't create enough with just Pelle up front - and not convinced Long is the answer to anything, despite how hard he works. Really hope we try and get another proven striker in during the window.
Minty Posted 4 January, 2015 Posted 4 January, 2015 Give it a rest, now we've got the replay I want us to go through, I just didn't want the replay in the sodding first place, especially considering we're gonna be up and down the country 3 times in less than a week now. Doubt it - we'll probably stay up north again, if not for the whole week for one set of fixtures. It's really not worth worrying about IMO - if we want to play in Europe we'll have to get used to travelling a fair bit between weekend fixtures. Ipswich are playing well and it was a tough game - we were the better side but didn't convert chances to show for it so we'll just have to go and do it up there.
Bewildered Posted 4 January, 2015 Posted 4 January, 2015 Sounded like a mix of Ipswich playing for the draw and nobody wanting to make forward runs to support Pelle in the middle meant we were ineffective. But that's just from listening to Solent, hopefully someone at the game cvan explain with detail what happened.

Sorry but this is clearly ******** - we've won plenty of games with Pelle as the 'lone' striker... the key is how well supported he is by the 3 behind him.

Now I'm really confused, you want us to win a game you didn't even want us to have, hoping we'd lose sow we didn't have to have it. Odd.

Window Cleaner Posted 4 January, 2015 Posted 4 January, 2015 In a Venn representation of bellend and Skate, the 'Skate circle' sits wholly within the 'bellend circle'. Wouldn't that just make skates a subset of bellends ?

Window Cleaner Posted 4 January, 2015 Posted 4 January, 2015 Why would Ipswich want a draw ? They have sights on promotion. Another pay day ?
Patrick Bateman Posted 4 January, 2015 Posted 4 January, 2015 Wouldn't that just make skates a subset of bellends ? Exactly "Saintsweb mongboard" overlaps with bellends. So all Skates are bellends as are a portion of the posters on here.
Dalek2003 Posted 4 January, 2015 Posted 4 January, 2015 Another pay day ? Not as big as the pay day for getting into the Premier League.
Window Cleaner Posted 4 January, 2015 Posted 4 January, 2015 Not as big as the pay day for getting into the Premier League. But one is tangible and real, the other ...well many sides have tripped at the final hurdle in that plater's handicap stakes.
InvictaSaint Posted 4 January, 2015 Posted 4 January, 2015 Not as big as the pay day for getting into the Premier League. Or indeed for avoiding relegation from it, eh Dalek?.....;-)
LGTL Posted 4 January, 2015 Posted 4 January, 2015 Pretty decent chance of the replay being televised.
SaintTex Posted 4 January, 2015 Posted 4 January, 2015 Think the whole first team squad will spend the whole week away. Further chance for bonding and improving.It didn't really work out last time we spent the whole week away.
Plastic Posted 4 January, 2015 Posted 4 January, 2015 Pretty decent chance of the replay being televised. What does LGTL stand for?
ART Posted 4 January, 2015 Posted 4 January, 2015 Well we can't blame the result on the match being on TV although if anyone had to listen to Merrington thy wouldn't be far wrong. Why doesn't Koeman keep his mouth shut and leave it to the players to do the talking. Almost identical to what he had to say pre match prior to our slump. And Scheiderlin may have scored, but once again, his presence in the line up doesn't see us getting a result.
Dalek2003 Posted 4 January, 2015 Posted 4 January, 2015 Or indeed for avoiding relegation from it, eh Dalek?.....;-) We still need another 4 points IMO. We have a good chance of making th 40 point mark, but the FA CUp, like the League Cup could distract us from the league.
scotty Posted 4 January, 2015 Posted 4 January, 2015 What does LGTL stand for? Lambert Goes To Liverpool? Or either of the other two.
del boy Posted 4 January, 2015 Posted 4 January, 2015 Do we know if the boy Elia will be available to play in the replay!
Shroppie Posted 4 January, 2015 Posted 4 January, 2015 Do we know if the boy Elia will be available to play in the replay! Can't see why not.
Goatboy Posted 4 January, 2015 Posted 4 January, 2015 Just back from the game. Thought we were poor for the first half hour. JWP, playing at right wing back, struggled with his positioning and lacks the pace to play there imho. Cost us the goal. To be fair, in the second half he had obviously been told to push much further forward and there was a huge improvement. I thought Fonte and Gardos both had solid games and Bertrand did well too. For me, the first half hour was the poorest I have seen Morgan play. He looked disinterested. After about half an hour he made a good run in behind their left back and that seemed to kick start his game. It needed it. Tadic had a quiet night and it was noticeable that when he was replaced by Isgrove there was suddenly much more impetus to our play. I thought Isgrove was one of the bright points of a pretty dismal show really. He showed pace, tenacity and a hunger to receive the ball that most of our play otherwise lacked. MOTM : Big Vic. Again. Best player on the park by some distance this evening. Davis also had a much better game than he has of late. Some lovely turns and touches in the second half. Pelle had a mare. Would have been better off resting him. And I'm not one to have a go normally. Long did ok, put in a lot of work running the channels and threatened to get behind their defence on occasion, but there was a distinct lack of clear chances. Easy to big up the absentees but I think Mane would have had a field day. Generally, we were not good enough in the final third and too ponderous getting there. Ipswich were there for the taking at the back and we didn't create enough to take advantage of it. A quick word about the ref: Sh*te. Again. If we play anywhere near our best in the replay we should beat them comfortably.
USA SaintsFan Posted 4 January, 2015 Posted 4 January, 2015 We still need another 4 points IMO. We have a good chance of making th 40 point mark, but the FA CUp, like the League Cup could distract us from the league. We have a good chance? More like 99.9% chance.
