Diallo excellent again. Oh. Coming off for Redmond. Armstrong great. Oh. Smallbone. Weird

Has Redmond changed colour & gone bald

You’re weird. 

[Saint_clark]

If anyone recognises the saints fan shouting "dooooodgy keeper" text them to shut up.

[whelk]

Good fucking combination from subs huh?

Think we can say it's a given that Stu wouldn't last 90 mins.

Djneppo summed up in 20 secs 

[Saint_clark]

That's a blatant foul on Smallbone!?

Pig sick at being taken off though

Should any player be happy 

[Mr X]

Dejenpo Is such a loose cannon plenty of skill on the ball zero end product 

[jasonb]

Well I'm enjoying this. Riding our luck at times sire but it's a cup game and we're still in this. Good game so far. 

[Saints4Prem]

How bad and biased can Friend be, terrible ref against the small sides!

[Saint_clark]

Lyanco does seem to overcommit to headers when the ball comes forward in the air, takes himself out the game when he has no chance of getting to the ball.

He hasn't played 90 minutes yet has he though - tonight has been a good shift and I'd like him back this weekend.

We've made all 5 subs now

[sydney_saint]

Commenters mistaking Djenepo for Salisu. One is a giant beast of a centre back, the other made of pipe cleaners. Must be nice to be earning their salaries!

In those circumstances probably not pal. Oh and btw WHOOOOOOOOOSH

[farawaysaint]

If it goes to pens can’t get much more experiences than Walcott and Long I guess.

Spoke too soon 

You tend to peak early

[CanadaSaint]

Our squad depth is light years ahead of last year.

[Saint_clark]

KWP a weak link at left back now, would have preferred Perraud to come on.

Think I'd rather somone in the stands take theirs 😂

[HKsaint]

Is this team better than the 1st team?

[Sheaf Saint]

Long offside.

you ever get the feeling of déjà vu?

Still think he's made a good claim for Bednarek's place tonight

[Chapel End]

How is Ralph judged after tonight?

[Sheaf Saint]

Why doesn't Mount get a yellow for that reaction?

[Chapel End]

Just now, HKsaint said:

We don't have a first team, we have a squad

Absolutely, just something for him to work on.

a little bit pony, slightly noddy but long may the cult of teflon ralph live on.

[Saint_clark]

That's why KWP at LB costs us. Useless when he gets on the outside.

[Billy the Kidd]

Really good, well set up. Not bothered about result, this is good.

Be fair, he hasn’t got a lot wrong tonight subs excepted. Who knows they may just come good in pens.:: maybe.

Agreed

So not the new Wesley Hoedt that Torino fans were glad to see the back of like everyone thought?

[Saint_clark]

Lyanco superb. Motm so far without a doubt.

[sydney_saint]

If this does go to penalties, please don't give one to Smallbone. It looks like his fairytale won't happen today. Really fear those misses will be in his head.

[Sheaf Saint]

No, but he dared to show a bit of emotion earlier on so he's automatically on Ducky's shit list whatever happens.

[Saint_clark]

Christ I actually thought Friend was going to give Forster two yellows in a row then.

[John Boy Saint]

That is Bollocks - no consistency from Friend

[stknowle]

Agreed, he has been outstanding.

[Saint_clark]

Wish Smallbone had had a shot there. 

Come on lads.....

[Saint_clark]

Fuck me.....

[jasonb]

Come on boys!!!!!!

Yeah....when I read the negative threads on this site (and I appreciate you're not one of them Sheaf). Here we are holding the league leaders on their manor, a club 20 times richer than us, with five minutes to go and apparently our manager still hasn't got a scooby. Hey Ho.

Emotions are for chicks and son in laws or something 

[DT]
