Saints 1-2 Brighton - Match Thread

[obelisk]

Less than 5 minutes to go and Saints are fannying around and giving it away in our own half.

[Saint Pete]

Baffling stuff from us. Surely we have to be more direct at this point?

[Whitey Grandad]

Danny Murphy sums it up...  overplaying.

[Sarisbury Saint]

Lose the next two games and Ralph will be gone.

[hypochondriac]

We've done nothing since going behind. It's now a major problem that Ralph can seemingly do nothing to influence a game in that scenario. 

[Jonnyboy]

I wouldn't be surprised if Ralph is secretly keen to get sacked and paid off. He knows it will be more of the same next season squad-wise.

Worst performance of the season. We have been schooled by a team that's been in the bottom 6 all season. We haven't even vaguely troubled them since going 2-1 down. Fucking awful.

[LGTL]

N’Lundulu is so ineffective. Can’t understand why he’s anywhere near the first team. 

[Bolokov]

Reckon Ralph must be slipping them Rohypnol at half time

[Suhari]

Get. It. In. The. Box.

Who's going to sack him?

I think they'll wait till we are in the bottom 3. Even then, it's hard to see him going. They could argue he's the best man to get us back up.

[Heisenberg]

When we are losing with 7 minutes to go

He’s survived two 9-0’s! No chance we’ll sack him. 

[Cabrone]

Looks like we've gone back to the bad old Saints, far too slow going forward allowing Brighton all the time in the world to reorganise. I think(?) we'll survive this season but we are making seriously hard work of it. We don't deserve anything from this game.

We have no one else. Remember we went into this season with Shane Long as our 3rd striker / main substitute.

[Saint86]

What the hell was this?!? Its absolutely atrocious. We've barely had a touch in their box in the past 20 odd minutes. In a must not lose game. Utter garbage. 

[skintsaint]

Brighton wont get an easier half.

[OttawaSaint]

Our mentality seems to be “if we aren’t fussed and don’t try then it doesn’t really matter”.  Sick of these losers.

[Sheaf Saint]

We've waited until fucking injury time to actually present any kind of threat. 

Fucking pathetic. 

[The Cat]

Nice of us to start actually attacking as soon as the clock hit 90 minutes.

[nta786]

Saints 1-2 Brighton FULL TIME. 

[Turkish]

Absolute shit

[Disco Stu]

Brighton deserved the win. We are in deep trouble.

[Saint_clark]

Redmond you fucking stupid cunt, fucking get it forward for a final attack not pass it backwards, fucking sick of that useless sack of overrated shite.

[LGTL]

Hideous performance. 

[Lord Duckhunter]

Seconds left and we fanny around with the ball. Fucking atrocious. 
 

 

[davefizzy14]

Absolute rubbish today, literally nothing second half.

[S-Clarke]

That second half was a true, true disgrace. An absolute mess. This group of 'professionals' need to have a long hard look in the mirrors, as they are all utter fails.

Losers, the lot of them. Absolute complete losers.

Even in the dying seconds they just play it about, what has happened to this side?

Exactly this.

Why no urgency?!

[egg]

That was an absolute fucking shambles. 

Clueless all over the pitch. 

Outclassed by Brighton ffs.

[simo]

Fucking pathetic AGAIN !

[BotleySaint]

Same as the last 12 games really. Pass it sideways, backwards, sideways, backwards. Wide open at the back every time the opposition come forward. Players need to get over themselves.

[HKsaint]

Redmond wasted time

[OttawaSaint]

Ourcseason in a nutshell, 90+ 3, forward to Redmond, waits....waits....waaaaaaiiitssss....pass back. *final whistle*

[Daft Kerplunk]

That’s as piss poor as you can get. 
 

From embarrassing stop the count T-shirts because we were top for a day or so, to stop the count so we don’t get relegated

[Heisenberg]

SFC 

[JustinSFC]

Good grief.

Good fucking grief.

[whelk]

Pathetic bunch of cunts

[Manuel]

Final pass of the game backwards as the ref blows the whistle...

[jasonb]

Deserved 3pts for Brighton. Battled well and showed a bit of quality from open play to get the points. 

Woeful from Saints. Lack of cohesion and generally lackluster performance. Players not playing as a team at all today. 

Worrying to say the least. Lack of fight and general motivation a bigger worry. 

Ralph has a job on his hands now. Levels have dropped so low.

[saintbenny]

I just cant watch this shixe any longer. We appear to be the only team in the entire world not capable of passing the ball forward. Everything is so slow. Let's be honest, the football is awful

[badgerx16]

Utter crap, and the entire country could see it.

Every team knows how we play, and how to beat our system.

Why is there NEVER any urgency to our play ?

[qwertyell]

Absolutely woeful. Finished the game jogging around passing the ball backwards.

Manager hasn't got a clue how to play when the opposition let us have the ball. Press and win the ball high or lose.

Fucking useless. 

[Whitey Grandad]

No spirit, no fight,  no urgency, nothing. Why we persist in trying to play the ball around in the last few minutes? There is too much emphasis on just trying to control the ball and none on getting it in where it hurts.

Nail. Head. 

[StrangelyBrown]

Ralph should get sacked for this. There are no excuses.

I was going to type those exact same words. They were better than us. That happens. But what games in the run in are we are going to be able to say that.

[davefizzy14]

This performance against an awful side. Ralph can't be happy with this. Poor performance.
