All set up for Ross Stewart to come on at 60 minutes to wrap things up with a brace...? 

Huddersfield equalise and then he gets his substitute-David-Connolly style brace to earn us a classic Saints lower league 3-1 win.

[Holmes_and_Watson]

Excellent AA tracking across to break up their move.

That'll do 😁

[Saint NL]

Saints fans singing loudly, can't hear the Huddersfield fans at all

[Saint86]

Bree had absolutely no idea he was behind him then. Worrying. Thank god he realised.

[Saint NL]

Fucking hell, close and cleared by Bree

[Saint Matty 76]

Holy shit thought Bree was going to let that run

[Saint_clark]

The commentator gets way too excited when nobody is actually attacking crosses into the box.

[Holmes_and_Watson]

Oooft. I thought for a seocnd we wern;t clearing that one. Bree, right at the end.

[lambtiss]

Bazunu should be claiming that

[Saint Matty 76]

Real stupid from Sulemana

[Saint_clark]

Sulemana absolutely stupid there. Fucking pass it out.

[Saint NL]

Not the best start to the half, all a bit sleepy 

[obelisk]

Sloppy straight after half time again then.

[lambtiss]

What was Sulemana trying to do? 

[Holmes_and_Watson]

Sulemana really overdoing it there. Just needed to pass it clear. Stu telling him as much.

This has come from a misplaced Bednarek pass. We had plenty back to deal with it, which is more than early MartinBall. But we're struggling to get it clear.

[Saint NL]

Christ, living very dangerously....

Another corner

[Holmes_and_Watson]

They had 2 lining up for that one. Corner to them.

[Saint_clark]

All this panic and pressure because Sulemana wanted to Cruyff turn around their entire team in our own box. Absolutely stupid.

[tdmickey3]

A bit of a mess at back at moment

Pick it up ffs, need to up the tempo again  and kill this off

 

[Mr X]

Jesus talk about letting the other team back in it 

[Secret Site Agent]

Bloody told you.

 

I knew the firt 10 we would be on the back foot

 

[Holmes_and_Watson]

Twice in this spell, Smallbone gets it and we immediatelt look calmer and more structured. Three times now...

[Saint_clark]

They're sprinting to close down now, keep the ball and exhaust them. 

Edozie coming on, probably for Sulemana. Get the sense Martin is fuming with him for fucking about with it like that and unsettling the entire side.

[Holmes_and_Watson]

Tempo not enough there. Little passing triangles caught out. Need ot be more aware/ sharper than that.

[Saint NL]

Saints making changes, Sulemana off for Edozie

[Saint_clark]

Sulemana straight down the tunnel. 

Sort your fucking attitude out lad. 

[Holmes_and_Watson]

Off down the tunnel for Sule... took a knock or taking the huff?

[Saint Matty 76]

Right move to get him off following that, absolutely braindead 

Edozie deserving of more minutes as well

[Saint Fan CaM]

Working the ball far too slowly at the back at the moment.

Baz starting to have some brain fart moments too.

[bpsaint]

I don’t know what the hell Martin says to the team at half time but this shit happens every fucking game

Definitely a huff

[saint lard]

Let’s be honest…..we are pretty shite. 🤷🏻‍♂️

[Holmes_and_Watson]

Huddersfield trying to creep up on Mr Cool Baz as he waits and waits to take the kick. 🙂

Gesturing and shrugging towards the bench as he went off. Looked in a right sulk. 

[lambtiss]

Sulemana comes across as  selfish and immature

[Holmes_and_Watson]

Nice. A big thump, right down the middle for AA. Good to see us looking to mix it up a bit.

They are getting into too many attacking positioins, so need to be taking advantage of that space.

[Mr X]

FFS only a matter of time before Huddersfield equalise 

[LGTL]

All over the place second half, need to calm down

From the sublime to the ridiculous here. Absolute shambles at the moment.

On a booking after putting his team under pressure. Not the right attitude at all.

[trousers]

60 mins... Unleash Ross Stewart.... (Please)

[Saint NL]

Edozie then Fraser both close

[Saint Matty 76]

Brilliant football and good effort from Edozie

Stewart soon hopefully

[SNSUN]

I'm impressed with our recent form but for once it would be nice to really finish a team off earlier in the game so we can showboat. We'll never see a David Dunn style failed Rabona otherwise!

[Holmes_and_Watson]

I was just about to type that I was looking forward to seeing Stu and Edozie link up. They'e done well in the past, and we just got a lot of good movement between them and AA. Edozie tricky to deal with in the tight spaces, and Stu gives him support and an outlet.

[Saint_clark]

Huddersfield were fired right up and giving it everything they had and didn't really cause us much issues. They'll tire even earlier now. 

We'll win this 3-0.

[Holmes_and_Watson]

Interesting. Smallbone deliberately not offering himself up for a pass out wider. Gesturing for it to be more direct that time.

Another of their players down, with cramp now...
