Let's face it Leeds could put out Jimmy Somerville and we'd still lose.

A front three of Walcott, Mara and Armstrong to chase the game. Awful.

Problem is, what more is there to choose from? SR have managed to assemble a squad of players who just aren't good enough.

[Saint Matty 76]

We haven't even laid a glove on them in injury time, sums it up.

The state of the team that is finishing this game is not a Premier League side.

[Convict Colony]

Alright Selles no more bullshit with the team selection I want us going hard at every team now not these "he has good discipline" footballers - we need to score goals and therefore we need players who are risk takers.

I want us to be trying to score like katie price is infront of us, balls out.

Also when the fuck will we score from a corner.

Good. That's what I'm hoping for. The agony of going down on the final day is horrible, as we well know. Quite often teams relegated before then play a lot better in the remaining games because the pressure has been lifted.

[Brissysaint]

I’m going to bed, fuck this stupid fucking game and this stupid fucking team.

Correct. We have too many shite players in our team to expect to stay up.

Expand  

This. Totally. How many of our starting 11 today would seriously get into another PL team? JWP and Lavia, aside.

[Mr X]

Full time all over 

[RedArmy]

Relegated. 
 

 

[Archers Road Stand]

Hahahahaha we are fucking pathetic. Fuck these players. 

[saintant]

Leeds haven't won since November so along comes an obliging team to gift them 3 points.

It is though, that's the problem.

[OttawaSaint]

Commentator saying "nail biting finish". First time watching Saints eh?

[tdmickey3]

Terrible game, terrible performance, topped off by an utterly pathetic effort by goalkeeper to a soft shot

Relegation all but confirmed.

Congratulations to the board for the spectacular mismanagement of the managerial position by keeping Ralph to long and giving the Welsh prick the job.

Ultimately it’s been a waste of every fans time 

[Disco Stu]

We're just not good enough. Didn't put a dent in them all game.

Best comment today

[OldNick]

Danny Ings! To think that we didnt think he would be an important signing in Jan

[the colonel]

its the hope that kills you

[ScandiSaint]

We are awful aren't we? Not good enough for the Prem. Not even a shot in the second half.

Elyounoussi is still fucking crap.

It is incredible that manager after manager seem to rate him. A true example of just how poor our squad is that he keeps getting in the team. 

[Saint NL]

Pathetic performance.

Not for the first time this season.

Roll on the championship, these players aren't good enough for this league.

[washsaint]

what a load of s***e that was.  Bazanu (despite the clown Bednarek blocking his view) should save that every time.

But not a single attacking threat the whole game.

Garbage team and end of the season cannot come soon enough.  This team is down.

[obelisk]

Saints were so bad they were fortunate to get nil.

Not been very convincing at all so far. Feels like a 1-0 loss written all over it. 

Expand  

Yep. We've done it again, gift wrapping yet another 3pts to a team that's been there for the taking and played absolutely gash.

[Suhari]

Meh.

Championship might be fun.

[Baird of the land]

Truly abysmal performance by Saints.

I think i can remember 1 shot on target (and that was a long range 1 by Onachu)

Pathetic goal conceded.

Really hope that is the last time Walcott plays.

[rudi-skacel]

Both upfront today did fuck all. Then got took off

from that starting 11 none. bazunu especially wouldn’t get in a championship team and wouldn’t be playing had we not spent that amount on him. 

[Bewildered]

Lack of quality, lack of intensity and a lack of effort. 

 

 

[St. Ciervo]

To think, Stu's chance was the best all game. And look how poorly that turned out. 

[StrangelyBrown]

That's my positive bubble burst. Down we go.

Thanks Janny B for today and the massive cunt Nathan Jones for fucking our season.

[Smatt48]

Did we even touch the ball during the entire injury time!!? Absolutely shocking 

[spyinthesky]

Its no good blaming individual players.
The team as a whole is not good enougj even to get a shot on target in a relegation scrap.
Leeds were much better than us and that is saying something

Wouldn't matter. We just don't create good chances for the strikers. Wank result and hello relegation. 

[Micky]

Goodbye the premiere league. We won't be back for many, many years mark my words. This club needs a complete reset.  Watching that shower of shyte,  I feel for Markus tonight.

40 million for the pair of them... Did nothing

[gammon cheeks]

Lets be honest ..that was terrible !  Really was expecting high energy football ! slow boring as fuck to be honest !  Leeds far far the better team . If we dont win next week good as done !

[Kermitzasaint]

So is Selles still the messiah after a single win, deserving of taking the team til the end of the season?

What a mess

Well selles certainly didn't get the team fired up today....  No bottle or never say die spirit nothing!...Not blaming him though as he has an impossible  job the damage was already done with the Jones appointment! 

[OttawaSaint]

We can relax now. No chance of staying up. I'll sleep better now.

Oh yeah what service would he of got today - the service is the problem, Moi and Armstrong wouldnt be employed in mcdonalds with their service.

We need to feed our strikers and at the moment Tall Paul is already bloody thin.

Running out to the car park whilst screaming is not really going to help matters, I don't imagine.

We are down. If we somehow manage to get back into this and get to the last day, playing Liverpool, half our fanbase will have heart attacks. It's not worth it. Plan for the Championship and save your sanity.

If we did we’d have missed it 

[allsa001]

Why is it on the odd occasion we go one nil up, we immediently stand off, and go into ultra defensive mode.

Leeds were the only team who looked like they were going to get the next game.

Just not good enough, unlike others, I think we have the calibre of players where we should stay up.

But for that to happen, the players did not put anywhere enough into that game today.

[IronCitySaint]

Leeds are probably the worst team we have played all season, but still comfortably a level above the drivel our club can produce. Saints will finish 20th and adrift of everyone and thoroughly deserve it. Hopeless club at every level. The only thing we are good at is finding loser owners who are clueless at running a football club. But owners that think they are so much more clever than everyone else.

We would not have scored a goal today if they had played five matches. Tactics, selections and subs just like Jones was still here. I can't see that anything has changed. This team is going to struggle tremendously in the Championship next season. This season is over.

Already abandoned that !

[Miltonaggro]

Selles stuck with the Chelsea side and that was a costly learning curve today.  We were toothless and second best all over the park.  Substitutions baffling also.  Next time out it needs to be the obvious best 11 without the loyalty towards the likes of Bednarek, Moi, and Walcott who simply shouldn't be anywhere near the line up, Bazunu needs a 'rest' too.  Leicester massive now of course, but we regressed today and a nasty reality check.
