Saints 0-1 Cherries - Match Thread

[Ed Rooney]

Absolute cunts jogging around tossing it off…… pricks 

[BotleySaint]

Honestly what is wrong with Selles. 

Any player who has shown attacking flair or ability left on the bench in a must win game. 

Djenepo, Sulemana, Adams. At least they have some spark and pace.

Worst team ever! "comic book guy 27/4/23"

[influx]

Shit shit shit and shit with shit on

 

[The Kraken]

Fucking terrible half. Fuck off with that. 

Pathetic line up, pathetic performance, pathetic tactics.

[Saint Fan CaM]

We’re playing like a league 1 team away against a Prem team at home. It’s really that bad and I’m sick of it.

[Saint NL]

Boooooooooooooo!

That was wank.

Che on at half time, and Djenepo as well (just got a feeling it'll be one of his good games).

 

[Lee On Solent Saint]

Absolute pedestrian football. No pace. No urgency. Got to make changes at half time.

[Crab Lungs]

It needs to be an absolutely cacophony of boos. Fucking pathetic. Apart from the first 15, you wouldn’t think we were on the cusp of relegation. No urgency, no actual clear cut chances, nothing.

It ok though as we don't need to win this one 

[Archers Road Stand]

These players and the manager really know how to suck the life out of the crowd. No wonder St. Mary's is a fucking away day dream these days. 

Selles OUT. Ankersen OUT. Semmens OUT. 

[S-Clarke]

So, so, so, so bad. When are these bunch of morons going to take responsibility? They just pass it around as if there is no rush, no care, no urgency.

That attack is the worst attack we've ever fielded at this level, I'm embarrassed by us. Bournemouth's attack is on a different universe than what we can muster.

I don't know what else to say really, I just want us to be put of our misery and scrap the bunch of them. I dislike this team more than any other. Bunch of losers.

[obelisk]

Do you know, I think I'd prefer Jones antics to this surrender football.

[tdmickey3]

What a pointless load of shit

Stupid selections of Apathetic Armstrong, elywhatsthepoint .

Are you actually trying to win the game you stupid spanish cretin

[influx]

Can’t wait to hear Selles spin this the turtle necked fuck cunt 

[Saint_clark]

Right. It can't get any worse second half, surely...

[Baird of the land]

Absolutely pathetic set up from Selles. We're trying to play counter attack at home against one of the other worst teams in the league when we need a win(a darw is zero use)and bournemouth would be contnet with a point.

JWP is being utterly negative today, hanging in front of back 4 and passing backwards as soon as he gets the ball (not sure if that is him playing to the managers orders or not)

Once again the complete lack of tempo from us is staggering. We're rolling the ball alon backwards without a care as if we were in mid table obscurity.

[washsaint]

Utterly pathetic and embarrassing - setting up a team not to lose, at home when nothing short of 3 points will be enough.

I would have expected far more boos at HT - that was appalling

Many of them are expecting to be moving on in a couple of months, so why should they bother ?

[qwertyell]

Only been watching sporadically, but seems like we're predictably inert in possession, toothless up front, and over stretched in defence. 

This season can't end soon enough. 

[saint lard]

Utter,utter complete shite. 
don’t tell me they care,that’s just bollocks. 
useless pricks from top to bottom. 
Fucking cunts the lot of them. 
a deserved relegation looms. 

[Dman]

As bad as expected when I saw the line up. 
 

Che, Sulemema on for AA & Moi, please 

 

expecting bmouth to start fast and get one. Far too easy for them. 

[stknowle]

Struggling away at home against ordinary opposition yet again. Effort yes(ish), quality absolutely no.  We may draw, we may even scrape a 1-0, will almost certainly concede first and if we do it's over we'll lose. Whatever we are fucking hopeless, deserve to go down and are going down.

[The Kraken]

Get Armstrong and Eluseless off, get Adams and Sulemana on. At least give it a fucking go. A point does nothing, at least try to score you negative fuckers.

Think I’d rather have Jones in the team!

[saintant]

That was about as dire as it gets - we are clueless and so weak and feeble. We need something up front so Selles may as well throw on Adams and Sulemana now. We don't look like scoring and you get the impression Bournemouth will get one. Fortunately it doesn't really matter because this display just reinforces the fact that this side don't belong in the top league. Very poor.

Because they're still paid a hefty sum to work for my club. They've jacked it in for years though, it's not like it's just this game.

[AlexLaw76]

you watch, Alcaraz will be the first off

They need to be careful, I can’t see many being interested in them after the shit they’ve put in all season.

Decent effort but I prefer my limericks to rhyme.

[gallaghert366@yahoo.com]

One shot on target in the first half of the 32nd. must win game.

This shower might get to 30 points at the end of the season - with a favourable wind.

Why anyone on here is hoping for a miracle is beyond me.

Do you want to spend another season watching this rubbish week in week out?

[bpsaint]

We’re playing like we’re comfortably mid table with an on the beach mentality, it’s absolutely dreadful. All those relegation battles of past were built on passion, hard work and belief, this is atrocious.

[S-Clarke]

Just now, AlexLaw76 said:

He's been pretty shit tbf, but I'd keep him on but surround him with better. Adams, Sulemana - will probably see a different Alcaraz. There's only so much a player can do when you're surrounded by the frauds we have masquerading as premier league attackers.

[influx]

Just now, AlexLaw76 said:

Yep, watch him take him off for Che

At least with Jones we’d be lumping it forward  to tall Paul , with sullemana trying to get onto the flick ons. Simple , but probably more effective than this shit that Selles is persisting with.

[Galway saint]

Surman on Solent sounds like he should be in charge 

spot on 

[charliemiller]

Come on Saints Please Just fight for it !!!!!!!

[Ed Rooney]

At least we have a captain to fire the cunts up 

[Dman]

The manager gives the team no belief with a set up to keep it tight, at home to Bournemouth.. ffs. 

[Mr X]

So who wants selles permanently? Asking for a friend 🤔

[Holmes_and_Watson]

That was SellesBall at work. Look to make sure we don't concede, although in doing so give them a fair number of shooting opportunities, and hope that they don;t come off from the positions we're trying to get them to shoot from. Make sure not to have strikers like Big Paul or Adams start to keep it that bit tighter.

Try to catch them by surprise, even though our players look just as suprised to be pushing forward, resulting in disjointed attacks and no prolonged preiods of momentum.

Same as usual, and much like RalphBall after it got found out, I'll be glad to see the back of it once the season is done. A miserable watch every time.

Still, we've got a chance of getting that goal. Not quite sure how, but possible.

 

[Saintscummer]

I have to ask that shouldn’t we be expecting more from JWP ? Lavia is doing both their attacking play. 
 

plus he is winning the ball and breaking up there play. 
 

JWP needs to add something. 

[Delmary]

It’s criminal that Elyounoussi, A Armstrong and Walcott are anywhere near the first team squad. We deserve to go down. The owners, CEO and first team management are idiots.

I'd understand, to a point, the keep it tight calls if we're like in November or December. But this is different, we can't keep playing the same ponderous approach waiting for an opening, we have to force it, we have to take responsibility, but my feeling is that these players are cowards and none of them want to take responsibility so they pass it to the next person.

Selles line ups are weird, but I'd argue that you can only do so much with this bunch to be honest. They really are terrible wimps.

Our best chance according to tv analysts(in a must win home game vs bournemouth) was  a scrappy shot from an incredibly acute angle that would have needed an incompetent goalie to get a goal. Changes needed at half time needed
