AlexLaw76 Posted 6 November, 2022 Share Posted 6 November, 2022 what is infuriating, is when we have the ball wide left/right in line with their penalty box, and we just rotate possession across their back line/. rarely do we get in behind, get crosses in from the by-line Ralph is f-ing appalling 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
obelisk Posted 6 November, 2022 Share Posted 6 November, 2022 Saints just have no idea at all in the attacking third. Slow. No penetration. When chances do arrive there's no composure. Unless that changes relegation will be the result. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Saint_clark Posted 6 November, 2022 Share Posted 6 November, 2022 Ralph has to go before the world cup, we only have two players going to the tournament at most (unlikely to even be that many), get a new man in to work with them while it's on and come back fitter with new ideas for the second half of the season. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DT Posted 6 November, 2022 Share Posted 6 November, 2022 Elynoussi’s miss in the first half. Cue’s appalling volley. Quality matters. Especially at key moments. Oh for a goal scorer. But yet again Edozie was good when he came on I thought. Not that that matters in Ralph’s mind. Just don’t get it. Hope he goes tonight but he won’t.

DT Posted 6 November, 2022 Share Posted 6 November, 2022 Sourness is right to say unless we show fight we’re going down.

Chez Posted 6 November, 2022 Share Posted 6 November, 2022 3 minutes ago, DT said: Perraud’s spirit is a positive in a shower of shit negatives let me counter that with some other observations of his play. The chance for Willock just before half time was because he didn't track his runner at all. He just stood there and watched it. The sort of defending that gets you relegated. The third goal, he completely sells himself and is too slow to even make a challenge leaving us massively short. I'd argue he is being lazy there too. It was a nice goal and I know people seem to like him on here, but he should be criticised along with many others. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
disconnect Posted 6 November, 2022 Share Posted 6 November, 2022 Ralph’s general demeanour recently has been that of someone who knows they’re off with lots of bizarre quotes which obviously aren’t really getting the team going.

Convict Colony Posted 6 November, 2022 Share Posted 6 November, 2022 fucks sake another atrocious game. but to go from Ings to Adams as our principle striker in 3 seasons is abysmal, who ever fucked up the striker confirmed as coming after mara signed should never do a transfer for us again. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baird of the land Posted 6 November, 2022 Share Posted 6 November, 2022 Apparently the positive of this season was despite playing turgid football we didn't concede many. Cue Newcastle scoring 4 from 4 shots on target. Overall that was horrid. I have no clue what ralph's plan is each week. We certainly have no identity. Brief period at the end of the first half and beginning of the 2nd where our lack of any kind of finisher cost us the chance to equalise. Given how easily they scored their 4 it likely wouldn't have made any difference. No clue what Walcott shows in training(maybe they play table football) because he looks lost on an actual football pitch. I'm utterly fed up of our corner routine. Trot JWp out to swing the ball in. It's so utterly predictable why can't we ocassionally go short. We're not scoring by the let JWP cross it for them to head it clear approach. Equally defensively i hate how we pull everyone back into our own box so evenb if we win the first ball the opposition get a 2nd chance Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

badgerx16 Posted 6 November, 2022 Share Posted 6 November, 2022 I decided that I wanted to watch some competitive sport so watched Tonga v Samoa in the RLWC, literally whilst waiting for paint to dry, and avoided footie streams, the BBC coverage of the PL, and the forum. ( Though I gather the latter has been as flakey as the team this afternoon ). Were we as bad as the scoreline suggests ? Did Theo contribute anything ?

S-Clarke Posted 6 November, 2022 Share Posted 6 November, 2022 Weird game all said, if you take the emotion out of it for a second we really weren't 1-4 bad. The chances Adams and Elyounoussi had were as good as, if not better, than any of Newcastle's 4 shots. Adams chance at 0-1 was huge, that moment on the belief just evaporated and it was 0-2 shortly after. Defensibly for all goals it was a shambles, we lost our discipline and pushed up higher which left gaps and runners all over the place. A really half arsed defensive effort to close down and get tight as well, which is totally at odds with everything we are supposedly known for. Two major problems in this team - A goalkeeper who can't seem to save any shots, and an attack who can't score goals. When your left back is the leading player for shots on target then you have a major, major problem. The whole place certainly feels stale, so a change of manager is about to happen of that there is no doubt. But I really don't think anyone else is going to get goals from that horrific bunch of 'strikers' we have. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We are a team with no purpose, no shape and no identity. We do not look remotely like a well oiled unit where every player knows his role - we look a complete shambles. This is why it is so easy to score against us and why we don't create much. Ralph should have gone during the summer when his other coaches were shown the door. SR have made a massive error and they may well look back and regret allowing Ralph to carry on. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ButtikonSaint Posted 6 November, 2022 Share Posted 6 November, 2022 Not surprised by the defeat - we're straw-weight up front, slow in midfield and inexperienced in defense. Have been behind RH since he took over and unsure what another manager could do with that team but there comes a time when a change is needed to try and jolt these players. Has to be now. Let's hope for a renewal of ideas and attitude in the winter break and the luckiest of dips in the transfer market - we need it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
