Saints 1-0 Bristol City - Match Thread

[Saint NL]

Refs got a fiver on the over 6 yellow cards market

[trousers]

Why the f*** is that a booking for KWP?

[AlexLaw76]

How on gods earth will Ross Stewart make a difference in this team?

[sydney_saint]

I know we are in a good run of form. I know we are in the top 6 after a rubbish start. I know we are only at the beginning of this project.

I know all of this, so it seems stupid to say. But I just don't like the way we play. I'm just bored most games hoping for something to happen

[Saint NL]

Are we doing the "switch off after half time" thing in the first half? 

And people said Russel can't change things up 

[Suhari]

We've regressed to yawn-fest over the past couple of matches.

[The Kraken]

This is utterly shit so far.

[Convict Colony]

Charles got that not played for a while reboot and has defaulted to being the footballer we bought.

[saint lard]

We look devoid of pace,guile,effort and willing to win the ball. 
they are doing to us what we hope to do to the opposition. 
shite. Second best all over the park. 

[Convict Colony]

City are just a west coast Norwich with this strip

No Smallbone, no party.

Better

[Saint NL]

Lovely football there tbf, good block to prevent AArmstrong

[The Kraken]

The best part of the game is listening to Deano ‘ammond. Loving his use of ‘Savaampton’.

[trousers]

Fair play to those that put their weekly wage on the 0-0

Which fools are getting on Saints keeping a clean sheet?

Yeah no one was doing that when Manning is in defence

[trousers]

[Saint NL]

Lucky there, free header and they missed it

Yeah... Fair point

[AlexLaw76]

This is a perfect example of why we are highly unlikely to get promoted under Russell Martin.

Should be 0-1

[Convict Colony]

How are these lesser football players from city looking more likely to score.

We have expensive big name players, internationals and big money earners.

This.

Dull. As. Fuck.

[Patches O Houlihan]

Check out the epic bruise Kamaldeen is sporting - back of the leg, above the knee.

[CB Fry]

Just wait until we have completely tired out Bristol City and we bang in three in the last ten minutes.

Words right out of my mouth. The key missing ingredient is PACE.

[Disco Stu]

Sulemana faffing.

Obviously they’re not a parks team! Real pros in there.

[Saint NL]

Ref ffs

 

Actually it's a good tackle

[SNSUN]

We definitely miss a focal point I'm the box. 

I want to see more from Sulemana. He doesn't look confident.

[Suhari]

Sully down injured with boredom.

[Behind Enemy Lines]

Any good streams? Mine just died.

There's already been a few moments where our midfield won the ball and could have played it early. Instead we just turn backwards. We shouldn't be afraid of losing the ball to Bristol! It's just cowardly football when you have the better players. There was a moment where KWP sprinted up the wing and Charles jogged 20 yards with the ball. By the time he passed it to KWP we had no choice to go back. I dont even see the point of playing Sulemana if we aren't gonna try and get the ball to him early either

Don't bother.

Go and find a freshly coated wall to watch instead.

That probably makes it the best stream

[Saint NL]

Sulemana injured, Che coming on?

Weirdly I think he might score today

[Sheaf Saint]

Looks like a hammy for Sully

Because we have a domestic Gareth Southgate as manager.

[Convict Colony]

Charles doing well, no pace when we break just this pissing around before we break to give Bristol time to reset.

Downs and Charles looking good, Manning being Manning, KWP quiet (for him) again.

Stuey Armstrong going for the running into a cul de sac world record tonight.

[Suhari]

Che coming on.

And that means goals, goals, goals.

[trousers]

[SNSUN]

Che on for Sule. Not unhappy with that but we will see.

I agree

[DT]

Che Adams on. That means goals goals goals.

terrible player. 
he’ll score now

We don’t look very direct again

[saintant]

Two awful sides trying to play football.

[sydney_saint]

My stream buffering. I'm gonna use this as an excuse to tap out
