Saints 3-3 Spurs - Match Thread

[Suhari]

Commentator just said ABK dislocated shoulder.

That's his season done then. Wonder if we'll see him in a Saints shirt again.

[Saint NL]

That tiny magnetic pitch 😂

Never seen that before, can't we afford iPads?

Bednerak injured, get in!

Who else do we have though? 

[OttawaSaint]

Bednarek injured. No DCC. Moi at CB?

Literally anyone. Living or otherwise.

It was a ring of red around a black one. So we surround the ball with 10 men and move it rugby scrum style to the Spurs goal!

[Archers Road Stand]

Gonna be AMN at CB ffs. 

[OttawaSaint]

Fuck off Stu, can't make a 5 yard pass, put us under a lot of pressure.

[Saint NL]

The drop off in form for Stu Armstrong is quite something. 

[adrian lord]

Poor game with both sides not showing much quality, punctuated with long stoppages and injuries.

He's done alright recently to be fair 

[OttawaSaint]

AMN coming in for injured Bednarek...

Centre circle stu, always fucks it up around the circle

[Bad Wolf]

Lavia at CB and AMN in CM?

[Saint Matty 76]

Christalfuckingmighty.

[adrian lord]

Bednarek going off

Think we've had the best of him now.... Clearly past it 

[Saint_clark]

To only have one CB on the bench is ridiculous. 

[Baird of the land]

AMN at Cb again, hmmm

[Saint_clark]

Bit too much responsibility for Lavia at his age. I'd put AMN in there.

[Crab Lungs]

Now is the time for us to introduce a front sweeper.

[Lee On Solent Saint]

Both starting cb's injured in a game before half time. That must be a first.

[Saint Fan CaM]

LOL - JWP trying to impersonate a dribbler - defender got a foot to it and it's a corner.  Oh shit, our afternoon is over - AMN coming on for Bednarek.  We were looking OK, but now it's going to be an utter shit-show.

[OttawaSaint]

Brentford 1-0  Leicester

Who would you have brought on? Sulemana?

[Saint NL]

Anyone else think DCC might have been playing with some voodoo dolls? 

[Saint Matty 76]

AMN looked decent in a back three as a wide CB but that's completely different to a back four.

Alarming lack of height on the pitch for us now too.

[OttawaSaint]

We're doing OK but I just cannot see where a goal for us could come from. Spurs will win this the moment they score.

[Mr X]

Tall Paul as centre back he's great with headers 

[Saint NL]

Another spurs player injured? 

What's going on?

Get to half time nil nil. Hopefully can regroup 

[OttawaSaint]

4 injured now. What's going on?

Not sure what we can do to fix this to be honest. 

Serious amount of bad luck with both getting injured. Could obviously make a case we should have 2 on the bench but this is pretty unprecedented.

Right move considering the lack of options on the bench. Just doesn't fill me with confidence.

 

Going to be 20 minutes injury time at this rate.

[Bad Wolf]

Brilliant effort from Son. Spurs are so lucky to have had him this long.

[adrian lord]

Players get treatment every time they fall over these days. It’s turning the game into American football in the sense that vast periods of the game are standing around doing nothing waiting for treatment to end, and then there’s  short bursts of set piece ‘plays’ before the next long tedious interval.

[Saint NL]

Lavias passing today has been very poor

[Convict Colony]

Moi really trying to get me my goal today, come on bro u can do it.

[OttawaSaint]

Saliisu has a head like a 50 pence piece...

[Saint Fan CaM]

Forster runs a ball out for a corner for us.  Thanks mate.

[AlexLaw76]

SPurs are shite

[Saint Fan CaM]

FFS - JWP with ANOTHER very shit corner.

[OttawaSaint]

Lenglet's what a cheat! Acting like he took one in the face. 

Edited 18 March, 2023 by OttawaSaint

[Saint_clark]

Walcott touches Lenglets chest, goes down holding his face and gets a freekick. Why is that not considered simulation?

I think it's because simulation is a yellow card offence, not a red and they can't use VAR for that. So the referee would have to be 100% it was simulation which, with that kind of thing is very difficult to spot in real time.

[thornhill_saints]

Yep - What

Yep what a bell end 

[OttawaSaint]

Lavia has been really sloppy in possession today. 

[adrian lord]

Spurs are pretty crap on this showing

[Archers Road Stand]

Perraud is fucking shite. You're a clueless cunt if you rate him.
