On the bright side…

… just 20 days until the season is over.

Saints could make some dosh here and do some kind of countdown advent calendar. Every day could have an image of Che Adams missing an open goal or something.

Just get the big guy on and lump it into the box. The slow build up and fannying around doesn't work. JWP needs to be told that the laws don't forbid him from passing it forward.

Yep. Sulemana on too. Literally nothing to lose now. Go hell for leather.

Better to go out swinging.

Tall Paul and Sully on.

And if we can avoid taking anyone off, that'd be good too. Except AMN. Get him off. 

Thanks Rubes.

Glad you think it funny

If I was watching any other team play top level football to the standard that we do, I would find it funny, I would be laughing at them.  If I take a little pleasure by having a little chuckle about how abysmal we have been, and continue to be, against what is frankly a pretty crap Forrest, who cares.  If that offends you, sorry but tough.  If it's any consolation to you, I (like many) are hurting bad, but that's only because we are so fucking shyte!

Prowsey needs to be braver on the ball.

Expand  

Needs to clear off out of the club - he’s no leader, can’t do the basics right like finding a killer pass or shoot or tackle. He’s a luxury player you want to bring in just for freekicks on goal.

Just a bunch of losers, any way you shape it. 

We've played okay, but can't create anything because our forwards are fucking shite, and can't keep goals out because our defenders are fucking shite. 

Can't wait for them all to never play for us again.

If you put an absolute liability in the team, you're going to get caught. And with AMN in there, we sabotaged a lot of our chances. We started reasonably enough, but didn;t get anything from it, with a couple of warnings the other way. But we got cut open when we overstretched, and outmuscled across a lot of the park. Johnson must have thought it was his brithday with AMN and ABK to get past. Our centre backs were stretched having to deal with the gaps AMN was leaving, and that cost us too.

It's going to be quite a comeback in the second half. >cough<

I don't know how I'll react next season when we might win a few games.

This is just comical now, can we end the season early , concede every game 3-0 and start selling players now.

Only players who look like they are football professionals tonight seems to be Charly, KWP, Armstrong, Lavia and Bednerak.

I expected shit, but somehow this is worse than that.

Getting ripped apart by the second worst team in the league. This saints team is full of wasters, ABK and AMN have been pathetic again, and yet we persist with them.

Che has just jogged around a bit, captain JWP is anonymous as ever.

ABK had been hovering around my worst ever top flight Saints XI for players who appeared for a decent sample size of games. Tonight he’s booked his place, a hapless CB made of glass, Daren Powell for the 2020s. He might make an excellent player later in his career but a very poor player now and delighted when he moves on. 

AMN is poor but fish up a tree at LB. Midfield so lightweight again.

ABK is a malingerer with the heart of the size of a pea.

AMN might have just got a touch on his heel. Not enough to send him tumbling though. It’s cheating.

Expand  

Completely agree. That's a penalty given for fans who have never played the game and for the "show" that is the Premier league. I dont remember football being defined as a non contact sport. If you give that, you give the slight lean on Adams earlier which also wasn't a penalty.

Ironically, that (and terrible defending) is why we’re 3-1 down, been reckless going forward with little end product. Easy pickings. 

Expand  

Yep, Alcaraz didn't help, but we've been awful at the back, with the exception of Bednarek he's had it all to do himself back there. With a better defence, we'd have got away with that first half.

ABK has been woefully bad since the first few games of the season when he looked a real find.

looks nowhere near a Germany defender to me but it could be because he just can’t be arsed like most of this group

I'll be honest, I think we'll struggle to get takers for ABK this season which may be somewhat of a positive. He seems as injury prone as an OAP and is still very raw, probably too raw for the top level.

That left channel as well, and guess who is playing that hybrid role there. What a shit team we have that we cannot replace a left back with an actual left back.

Nah, we’ll have people queuing up for him. Hipster player. Somehow, getting into the Germany squad despite being bang fucking average all season. 
 

Probably end up in Europe somewhere. 
 

Might be alright in the future if he grows a pair of balls and man’s up a bit

How is it a positive? He's a spineless, gutless cunt - and he's also a lazy, shit defender.

Can someone help me understand this?  No matter how much I have already given up all hope, it still really hurts to be 2 goals down when our overall play has at least matched Forest.  Like... I think it's grief I'm feeling. It didn't have to be like this.

he's not in Powell's category. No one is. But he has been pretty crap since the first injury he suffered. He can't play left centre half at all either.

If that’s a penalty then the free kicks taken from the wrong place for the first and Walcott is fouled for the second. Not sure why I feel like making excuses for AMM. Just doesn’t give a shit.

AMN can't tackle, pass , get in position, might as well be playing for Forest , get him off 

Expand  

I really don’t understand how he has got a reputation as a good player and has played 6 times for England. He does nothing well, he doesn’t even work hard which is the minimum you’d expect

I have to say this relegation has been very well earned. Everyone from the boardroom, to the management and the players on the pitch have made it happen. No shirkers here, they've all put in a shift.

Can't think of a team thats deserved it more for a long time. Whevenever there's been a glimpse of survival they've done what's necessary to keep that relegation a formality.

Roll on league one. Can't see anything about the club not making that a reality in a years' time.

Will Selles continue the crazy experiment of AMN in the hybrid left back/midfield role? Surely he couldn't possibly be that stupid....could he?

Trying to find a positive in the current situation - there have been five lower season's ponts totals in the EPL. We are currently ranked joint 6th with Watford.

He’s playing out of position. His best position is in the car park.

Nice to see Stu looking sharper, think he could be a decent option next year if he can get/stay fit and injury free.

Expand  

did well for the goal, but having no left foot is a hindrance playing left midfield.

Forest know they can just give possession to Saints and let them fanny around with it. All they have to do is wait for the chance to break quickly and they'll get a shot at goal. It's like virtually every game at St Mary's.
