Sheffield Utd 0-2 Saints - Match Thread

[OttawaSaint]

Tells has been really good, his enthusiasm and direct running have really boosted us.

[skintsaint]

che again...should have scored

[Saint_clark]

Should be making a sub now to get fresh legs on. I get Ralph's thinking behind not wanting to disrupt the team and trusting his best players etc but he's really not proactive enough with his substitutions. 

[whelk]

Fucks sake we won’t play a team as shit as this again. Score some of these chances

[DT]

Pass that one, Che

Armstrong was in such a great position too.

[Sheaf Saint]

Wrong choice from Adams. Should have squared it.

[skintsaint]

could have scored twice there

[obelisk]

Composure!

[OttawaSaint]

We should be out of sight here.

There was a shefifled United defender just a little slower in getting back out than Adams. 

Phew! Can I celebrate now?

Exactly right. If only to waste time. Must not let them score as it will bring two with our fragility

[Saint_clark]

Love seeing Forster back to his best.

[OttawaSaint]

Keeper was committed, simple pass and it’s all over.

[nta786]

Redmond on, Tella off... 

[Saint_clark]

Oh ffs, why did I ask for a sub...

[The Cat]

Go on Redmond.

Not so fast. Mike Dean might phone in during MotD to disallow it...

[obelisk]

Tella off and Redmond on. 🥴

[DT]

Redmond. The last player I wanted to see. Actually ever

[DT]

That’s like two players off

[dobbo]

Tella looked tired and Djenepo saved for Wednesday I suspect

[nta786]

Redmond there we should do better with those opportunities 

[DT]

Pass the f’ing ball you knob

[stknowle]

OHHH FFS REDMOND etc etc

[Saint_clark]

Selfish from both Che and Redmond now.

[skintsaint]

Redmond ....saved by the GK

[obelisk]

Composure!

[OttawaSaint]

Redmond nearly scored, again Armstrong there for a tap in.

[igsey]

Redmond is the right choice to bring on, what better time to play a guy in poor form and low on confidence?

[skintsaint]

Armstrong twice now could have had a tap in

[Sheaf Saint]

I hope that's because Tella was knackered and couldn't continue, because he's been our best player today and replacing him with Redmond otherwise would be utterly mental.

[Lighthouse]

I can live with that sub, 2-0 up after 75 minutes.

Was just about to type exactly that. Bet Redmond replaces him

And the lottery numbers for tonight are.....

Shut up. It’s like you want him to fuck up.

and it’s his birthday

Never?

[igsey]

Some of you lot have a very interesting definition of "tap in".

Why the two different reactions to the same scenario...? 

[Saint_clark]

Armstrong is incredible. But again...should have passed it.

[DT]

We need to waste time and draw fouls better in these stages. Dark arts. We’re awful at it. 

[The Cat]

Armstrong is so good. What a run and just wide.

[Viking Saint]

In fairness, Tella has faded a bit so not the worst time to give Redmond a run and hopefully build his confidence.

Armstrong close after a great run!

And now Armstrong. Ah well. Still ahead and dominating

[HKsaint]

Armstrong unlucky

[OttawaSaint]

Ugggghhhhh so close, Amazing run Armstrong.

[Saint_clark]

How does McBurnie not get booked for that???

Cos when Che does it it’s cute...

[whelk]

McBurnie is a cunt

[trousers]

Good to see a bit of confidence coming back into the attacking players
