This is up there with Forest at home. 

We could stay out there with the grounds crew and still not score. 

To stay up you need goals. We don't have any at all in our side. 

A bit of an over exaggeration don’t you think? We’ve dominated the ball and played in their half for most of the second half. End product remains lacking but we’re not looking dead and buried or fragile as fuck like we used to

When was the last time we had a big finish and scored two in five minutes?

Vs Newcastle in the late 90s?

Big Paul is shite. Terrible touch. Can't jump. Offers nothing.

He's a weapon in the air, apparently 

[Edmonton Saint]

I’ll say it again, but could Ballard do any worse than our piss poor ‘strikers’ ? He at least seems to know where the goal is which helps somewhat 

[The Juice]

Our crossing. It really is so bad. We jusy havent created anything despite all the possession etc. Like another poster commented. Not sure what else Selles can do when its the quality of individual players that is so poor

[Holmes_and_Watson]

Admas gets the ball centrally. He looks for that central, direct pass. But we've got Big Paul on now, so Big Paul isn;t zippy enough and is too deep for that. So he passes it out. There's another pass on wide. But we dither, so when it gets out there, there's no space to run into. The ball does come across. But fails to beat the first man. Another game with an endless succession of little errors.

Fair enough but same end result, no goals, no points, no clue...

Sweeping it.

Yep. Hardly touched it either has he?

[BotleySaint]

Just feel none of our players really working hard enough. Taking the game by the scruff of the neck. Wanting to win. It's all just so pedestrian. 

[Saint_clark]

Taking Alcaraz off was a mistake.

[adrian lord]

Lost count of the abysmal crosses. Bendarek at it now

[hackedoff]

Yet another lame,half arsed attempt to win a football match.

Yet another bang average team leaves St Mary's with an easy win,had a far,far better team in League 1 than we have now.

Utter shit fest of a club from top to bottom.

.

[Archers Road Stand]

This will be the easiest stoppage time Brentford will ever have. 

[Thereisonlyonemickychannon]

Poor

[OttawaSaint]

Sulemana and TP will never ever score for Saints.

So it's basically a once in a lifetime event then...!

[The Juice]

When do we get to vote for player of the season btw? 

[saintant]

One shot on target in a crucial game is pretty damning.

[Suhari]

Last few minutes and we're fucking about passing sideways.

When we've got a 6ft 7 striker up front.

Fucking dismal.

[IronCitySaint]

7 minutes stoppage time. Bet we wouldn't score if it were 70 minutes.

Agree with this. If we were mid table or the team winning  1-0 it’s fine to be composed and controlled. We’re not. 

[Suhari]

Just now, The Juice said:

Tella.

[Holmes_and_Watson]

Big Paul stands in the middle wondering what he has to do to receive a pass.

[OttawaSaint]

Fuck, 7 more minutes of this toothless dirge...

[Chez]

Another cross straight into the keepers hands no where near any of our strikers. 

[Saint_clark]

Didn't we score twice near the end at home to Fulham to draw 2-2?

Had that gone in, which it should, this half would have been very different. 
 

we’d probably have gone on to win tbh. 

[Thereisonlyonemickychannon]

That's it...toothless tosers

Because Saints will never be able to hit an accurate cross

I doubt he'd cope with the physicality. 

[Tanlee]

No craft, no inspiration or imagination in the opposition half as standard, upto that point it does look better, wish we had a lallana or tadic still instead of 2nd rate panic buys. 

[bangkoksaint]

On a positive note Che has said things are more professional now and the players are doing things like turning up on time for training ……

[Thereisonlyonemickychannon]

Walkers

 

[OttawaSaint]

Fuck off Bednarek. 

[Archers Road Stand]

Sulemana £20m hahahahahaha

[Dman]

Refs lost the plot here. Poor game from him

There's just no plan of attack. Alcaraz and KWP going off robbed us of the two most likely outlets. We're left with players who won't or can't drive the game, and lack the skill to get it into dangerous positions.

[Saint_clark]

Wtf did we do to upset Gary Birtles, he is always SO biased against us.

[bangkoksaint]

Tella hat trick

Behave. He stood his ground. Toney reacted like a proper prick. 

[Osvaldorama]

Genuinely nothing at all about this team. 
 

Bunch of utterly pointless, dumb, useless mercenaries. 

7 minutes extra time. Wouldn’t even score in 7 years. 
 

Nice one Bednarek wasting all the remaining time by kissing Toney

That was odd eh?

So for most of the season they've just been dicking around ?

[Mr X]

Can't believe the club even considered recalling bednarek

Will be handy next year. Or at least a large amount of money in the bank from his sale. 

[Dimplex]

One goal down, in injury time and absolutely no urgency. This happens time and time again. Pathetic.
