Saints 1-1 Rotherham - Match Thread

[BotleySaint]

Aribo and Mara coming. That means goals goals goals.. 

[Holmes_and_Watson]

Goals incoming ... Adams off... 🙂

[saintant]

Need big Ross fit asap to lead the line.

[Saint Fan CaM]

It’s ok Aribo on - 85th minute. We’ll be fine. Oh.

[LGTL]

No excuses for Martin for this second half. Fucking pathetic not to beat this absolute shit. 

[SNSUN]

I'd say we should have signed a striker, but we did. An injured one. 

[Streaky]

It's getting to the point where automatic promotion will be out of reach and that isn't good enough.

How long does Martin get?.

Yes, this really should have been a very comfortable 3 points.

It's not about results, trust the process.

[GDog07]

Just an easy couple more points lost.

Considering we took our three most likely candidates to make something happen up front, we’ll have to settle for a depressing draw unless we find some unlikely attacking inspiration.

Shows that we cannot keep up with the automatic promotion chasers, if we stay on 17pts, already 11 behind. Cannot be dropping points at home to 23rd place, that’s criminal.

Not sure it'd help. With all the backward passes he'll never get a touch 😉

[Saint NL]

Another decent save from their keeper

Must be nice.

How the fuck didn't that go in?

His slow ponderous set up is killing this team

Bit dramatic 😂 they've had 1 shot on target resulting in an unfortunate but you could argue lucky goal and everyone's gone in to meltdown. The keepers made 2/3 world class saves to keep us out, otherwise noone would be caring about that goal.

[LGTL]

Quite something when Rotherham’s keeper is so clearly better then ours

[adrian lord]

off the line. 

[Holmes_and_Watson]

Off the line!

[Saint Fan CaM]

Keeper saves at his near post…err, hang on is that a thing?

[Sheaf Saint]

Off the line.

Not gonna happen today is it.

[saintant]

The natives will be getting restless again. All self inflicted.

[Saint_clark]

Streams shuddered to a halt.

[Block41 Saint]

Ryan Fraser is fucking shite. What a dreadful signing.  

[adrian lord]

Fraser can't control a sack of cement

Yep, he kills all momentum we build.

[Disco Stu]

Edozie has had an absolute 'mare.

Fixed

[Saint NL]

Edozie has managed to smash it into row Z and give away a needless foul to waste a good minute or so ..

[Saint Billy]

Sick of watching this constant crap.

[Saint_clark]

Their player initiated the contact for that freekick.

[benjii]

Clear foul on Downes before their goal, so I presume we get a PGMOL apology later.

More pertinently, that triple sub was stupid. I can understand putting Alcaraz on for ArmA or Adams, but why take Sulemana and Stu off at that point? 

 

P.s. why can't Amo Ameyaw get in the squad? Much better than Fraser or Aribo.

[adrian lord]

Utterly crap subs. Sulemana should have stated on at least.

Yep.

[Sheaf Saint]

If we can't find a way to beat a shit team like Rotherham at home, we have no business believing we should be in the promotion mix come the end of the season.

[die Mannyschaft]

1 x goalie 2 x defenders in Jan window. Get buying now...

[Saint_clark]

Bazunu lobbed again, luckily he was offside.

We showed throughout the game we are capable of ripping into Rotherham and creating chances if we attack.

But between 25-75 mins it seems the players were told to just play keep ball.

The amount of backwards passes and negative movements was unnatural.

That’s handy then because we’ll be absolutely nowhere near the promotion mix.

Has mara touched it yet?

We should be winning this 4-0, not getting the three points is absolutely criminal.

[Block41 Saint]

FT. Martin OUT. 

[HKsaint]

Bazunu my hero

Not good enough is he. Obvious isn't it.

[OttawaSaint]

Fuck off Martin.

[Saint NL]

All over, total bollocks

[AlexLaw76]

This is a fucking horrific result. To add nicely to the many horrific results already this season 

[RedArmy]

Says it all that we are so toothless that they abandoned their 5 at the back and tried to get out and beat us instead. 
 

Pathetic. 

[Tauro]

Why on earth do you take your best player off? Absolute madness. Thrown the game away

[Osvaldorama]

That’s a fucking disgrace of a result

[LGTL]

That’s probably the worst result of the season and christ it’s got some competition. Martin out.
