Palace 1-2 Saints - The Treble is Alive!

[Saint NL]

Djenepo is brainless, how can he be offside there?

[Killers Knee]

I think I'm in an alternate universe where Lyanco & Armstrong aren't shit.  Where's Rick with the Portal Gun.

[Saint NL]

Mara misses a 1 on 1, but was offside

but we never started with a back 5

My bad. Thought we started with Edozi and Perraud as WBs and 3 CBS?

[SambaMaverick]

Enjoyed listening to this commentator tbf, much better without a twatty co-com like on the Forest game

[Chez]

skates out of the cup

[niceandfriendly]

This place is actually quite fun when we’re winning. Did the Croatian nuns bring us luck?

[zurichboy]

Jones obviously wants to lose this by bringing on Djenepo And Diallo

[Saint NL]

Nice to see Bazunu come and claim that, taking out the striker as well

From what I’ve listened to on Solent it’s still been a horrendous game of football.

The only time I’ve agreed with Jo Tessem this season 🤣

Slightly unfair. The first half was definitely horrendous from a saints point of view. Too slow, too ponderous,  no zip in defence or in possession, just looked a bit clueless when trying to go forward. Definitely much fewer long hopeless balls but just an ugly brand of football again where the team just don’t seem to know what each other are doing, all too familiar under Jones thus far.

Second half better, a bit more cohesion in possession. Palace have been shit this half, whether that’s through saints getting tighter, maybe.

Overall a good result, an untidy game, a little bit of optimism but a lot more improvement needed.

[Mr X]

Predicted we'd win today with Jones doing the bare minimum to stay in a job

Those hotties always makes us harder ......to beat

Bazunu cleaning out the box there.

Nice.

Lyanco has been RB (and has done pretty well) until KwP came on

[Sheaf Saint]

That was quite a miraculous recovery from Ayew there.

There were Croatianuns? I'll have to put the iron down and scan back.

If you had the same stream as me on Wednesday, it really didn’t help that the co-commentator was ex Forest (Birtles). Unbearable. 

[DT]

WE WON A FOOTBALL MATCH.

[Saint NL]

All over.

 

A win!!

[Suhari]

We did a win!!!!!

[Saint_clark]

Well, I'm convinced. Season is saved, Jones in, Everton game is a free hit now.

 

[saintscottofthenortham]

We at least like having a bit more steel about us, not afraid to put a boot in or play a bit dirty. We’ve been far too nice for far too long. 

We’re deffo a far better team in this shape today. But we knew that already and don’t think he’ll ever be able to justify why he didn’t go with it against Forest.

Have enjoyed watch DCC at the back. If all fit, ABK and DCC would be might pick of the back two. 

[DistantSaint]

Holy crap, i honestly dont know what to do with the rest of my day now. 

[Toadhall Saint]

At last

[Mr X]

Something to build on and breaks our losing run but let's not get carried away both our goals were from palace mistakes! 

[DT]

I actually hope that Jones gets a bit of pleasure, confidence and support from the players after this

Blimey! How did that happen? Palace fans will be happy :-)

The most disappointing element of this result

[AlexLaw76]

Win

Woeful 1st half and the game probably should have been over when they hit the bar.

Much better 2nd half with some decent football.  Still needed their keeper to literally chuck 2 in the next for us, as we barely threatened.

Edozie was busy, Lyanco to his credit was decent at RB.

 

Much better when we dont start with 5 at the back against a side that is also not the best

[Sheaf Saint]

Wow. we beat someone. I had almost forgotten how this feels. I might treat myself to a celebratory cup of bovril!

[OldNick]

Congratulations Nathan Jones and Saints. Obviously also to our fantastic away support

[Turkish]

Bloody hell we won

 

[Saint NL]

That Palace performance was a classic "Saints under Ralph".

 

Go ahead and then gift the opposition 2 easy goals and lose.

no. Perraud played left back. Lynco played right back. 

 

 

[hasper57saint]

Wow! We have just beaten a team Eight places above us. Wonder’s will never cease!

[Toussaint]

That will do everyone the world of good.

This is what I am expecting. Palace have got their own issues with consisency. So a dreadful match and we bundle through 2-1 or something and then we are stuck with him until bloody Easter.

 

Well, I called that at least. Although the game wasn't dreadful, we were OK in the second half 👍

[chi saint]

If so called fans are going to moan that we won, that we were lucky and that Jones should still go then they should start looking for another team.

It's early days and who can predict but that was a better performance, not great, but a definite improvement.

Fucking hell. How many posters were banging on about 3 at the back even though it clearly wasn’t. 

[saintant]

Longy scored for Reading. Can we get him back?

Cameraman really has a thing for those two grannies. 

Grannies they may be but they made the effort to go up there and stand in the pouring rain to support our team. They are stars!

[OttawaSaint]

Well done Saints.

Figures, I've not been able to watch any of the cup games and missed the Bournemouth game.

So I've not watched Saints win a game since August. No wonder I'm so fed up!

Hopefully we can use this as a starting point to win some league games.

It’s even more fun when we’re losing and people are losing their shit on here.
