Stadium if half empty.

For a grotty, wet, cold, midweek, nailed-on defeat, live on TV, two weeks after Christmas, that’s not bad really.

[Turkish]

Shows how shit the premier league is that two teams in the same division can play each other and there is not a single person who thinks we can win.

Hence the txt message this morning saying about tickets

I, and plenty of our group giving this a miss. Would have never done in previous seasons but dross being served up made it too easy not to buy a ticket

Yeah i heard J.Redknapp saying it was the nature of football, which annoyed me as it is not it is the nature of the premier league.

[The Kraken]

Sky calling it as a back 4, Djenepo in a 3 up top.

[BotleySaint]

Tonight's lineup just goes to show how much we still need to do in this transfer window.

My thoughts exactly. It's a quarter final, but to say am not interested would be an understatement

[whelk]

Strong start

[Yorkshire Saint]

Sad to see the stadium not full. Sad for football in general and sad for Saints.

So half full then.

4-2-3-1, interesting.

First corner to city

Yes. It’s curiously offensive to the eye on top of the potential for mistakes.

Wondered if it was just me!!! 

[The Kraken]

I don’t think it’s a bad attendance at all. Northam full, Kingsland mostly full, Itchen and Chapel about half. Reckon it’s at least 25k, probably more.

[adrian lord]

Salisu is playing like a clown there!

If it helps, the team attacking is probably City.

For your benefit, we are the ones with black shorts.

[Archers Road Stand]

Salisu really is an abysmal defender. 

[Baird of the land]

Really poor by Salisu, 2 chances to deal with.

[Mr X]

Poor from salisu

[adrian lord]

Great spell of pressure 

[Mr X]

Bloody hell we got it to their end of the pitch wahoo 

[Ed Rooney]

Sali always acts like he has an eternity on the ball, gets caught so often 

[CB Fry]

I'm only watching it to see who we are going to sign next summer.

[BotleySaint]

Djnepos attitude and work rate amazing 

[whelk]

Done more than we did against Forest already

[Disco Stu]

JWP appears to be playing a more advanced role.

[Baird of the land]

Nice to see us trying to play the ball short from Corners. Fed me up no end under ralph how predictable we were.

[Mr X]

Decent start so far how many times have we said that... Gulp 

[The Kraken]

This is night and day so far from the Forest game and the start of the Palace game. Some proper hustle, high press, working hard for each other, very positive start.

[OttawaSaint]

Decent start, unlucky from DCC.

[AlexLaw76]

Looks like a 523 without the ball....

Accurate, IMO, on this occasion.

[Fabrice Fernandes no.1 fan]

Ward Prowse seems to have the better of Phillips so far

[AlexLaw76]

That was a pass from Bazunu

[OttawaSaint]

Djenepo is giving it his all tonight!

wonder what's changed. Jones seems to have abandoned his long ball style, i wonder why?? 

[Mixedkebab]

Best 15 minutes of Jimmy Swaggart’s tenure so far

And typical falling over of feet by MD

Shame ‘his all’ largely amounts to falling over his own feet a lot.

Dare I say it: this is a really encouraging start. We’re obviously massively deficient in quality but it’s a much improved performance so far. I don’t expect the win but it looks like an organised start.
