Saints 2-1 West Brom - Match Thread

[Holmes_and_Watson]

We tried to do one of our cut back goals. Che central though, whereas AA and Fraser would have been closer to the post, and tried from there.

[Saint Fan CaM]

Once again Che doesn’t get in front of his man.

[Holmes_and_Watson]

Our press not at all good there.

We look disjointed and we're not on top here.

[trousers]

If Ross Stewart is match-ready he needs to come on now, if he's not ready then he shouldn't be on the bench...

They hit the bar.

We are getting lucky

[Disco Stu]

Martin being outfoxed here.

[tdmickey3]

We are getting worse as game goes on and we all know how it will end

with a late winner😉

[Holmes_and_Watson]

Off the bar... for WBA.

Gave them plenty of space and other than THB, we're not likely to outmuscle anyone, so Manning second to the header.

[OttawaSaint]

Che has been diabolical since the window closed. Funny that...

[Saint Fan CaM]

Bows the time to bring in the big man Russ…we need an outlet.

[adrian lord]

We’re gonna lose this if we don’t change something soon

[Saint NL]

Armstrong!!!!

yeeeeeees!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

More details to follow 🙂

 

[Disco Stu]

Composed finish. Still won't celebrate until we score again or the game ends 2-1.

[adrian lord]

Yaaay

[Saint NL]

He seemed to take an age to knock it in.

Composed finish though. Right heads on, don't fuck this up now 

[Saint Fan CaM]

Yeeeessss!!!!

[OttawaSaint]

Yesssss!

 

Ice in his veins!!!

[Holmes_and_Watson]

Lovely from Fraser.

he knows exactly what he's going to do, at every moment he had that ball. He tests on the outside with a gesture, then shifts it and delivers a lovely cross that with a touch falls to AA.

Good work from KWP before that.

[Sheaf Saint]

Slightly against the run of play but who cares! 🙂

Should have given Stewart a run. He'd be an unknown quantity compared to Che who we know what we get from and so do West Brom.

[adrian lord]

Hopefully that knocked the stuffing out of West Brom’s morale

[Cricketphilly]

Stuck a score on us 5 mins ago,  cashed out on 59 quid, pub then 

[Holmes_and_Watson]

So good from KWP... right to the last moment. Next time...

[OttawaSaint]

Wow he seemed to take even longer in the slow motion replay...

[stknowle]

That’ll do. Starting to show some real resilience this season. C’mon!!

[grezz]

Ryan Fraser - Always makes something happen.

[AlexLaw76]

I think WBA have been very good to be fair.

Busy  typing this as we score🙂

[Holmes_and_Watson]

But with a goal and a direct bit of play, the crowd have raised the noise.

WBA with a quadruple change.

[Holmes_and_Watson]

Stewart coming on!

[Holmes_and_Watson]

AA did really well today. But I guess you can't sub Adams 10mins after he's come on.

Maybe the thought is to add more height to help the defence at set pieces.

[Holmes_and_Watson]

our possession looked a bit scrappy there, but we nearly got away into space down the flank. So we're looking for opportunities, when WBA push up.

[Saint NL]

Ref isn't giving anything, ffs

Hope we don't miss AA's tenacity and commitment in the last 10 minutes....

[Holmes_and_Watson]

they keep going when KWP fgoes down. But then, we play on when we get it.

Martin gets a card for moaning about it.

[Saint NL]

Not very zen from Martin, he's booked 🤣

I think he could have been quite easily ...

Yeah. Didn't need that Che sub, he's totally anonymous.

[Disco Stu]

We're sitting very deep.

Just made a very good clearance.

[Saint NL]

Who got man of the match, I missed it

[Holmes_and_Watson]

WBA getting enough dangerous deliveries in there. But noone on the end of them.

[Saint NL]

Leicester losing

[adrian lord]

We need to close the game down and frustrate them for the next 10 minutes

[Holmes_and_Watson]

Stewart has earned a couple of freekicks for us.

[Holmes_and_Watson]

Stu?

or Manning?
