Saints 1-0 Bristol City - Match Thread

[saintant]

There is an air of complete apathy around this club.

[Toussaint]

I feel very self satisfied in deciding not to go tonight. Maybe I’ll regret it after the second half???

[Toussaint]

63% possession, yay!

The wife has commandeered the TV for Eastenders. So I'll miss the first 15 minutes of the second half. Shame.

Tbf I’d rather watch this game that sit through eastenders. Maybe wrap up warm and go for a walk.

I was gonna have a dry night but the red wine has been opened, glorious anaesthetic.

[trousers]

Never. Any. Doubt.

1-0 KWP

Wow

[AlexLaw76]

KwP !!!!

[saintant]

Great goal out of nothing from KWP - that's what he can do.

[Saint86]

It really is like being managed by Southgate. Dross tactics, snore football, and dug out by superior players.

[sydney_saint]

This is reminding me a bit of the Burley season. That was one of the most expensive sides in the division. Instead we played Wright all season and in the main dour football. Scraped the playoff and then lost them. Right now that's where our season now is headed

 

Edit: KWP!!!

He's had 2 shit performances this season and all the rest have been very good.

Guess which our fans focus on. 

Behave yourself.  He hasn't been "very good" at all and you're conveniently forgetting how shit he was last season too.  Like I said, easily pleased.

[saintant]

Fortunately you can't coach that.

Can see her point. Isn't tonight where Nish finds out about Sukki and Eve's affair?

It is. I reckon someone dies on Christmas Day... 🤪

[The Kraken]

KWP 😍

[Holmes_and_Watson]

Needed something special to lift us after the first half. Now, let's see how we build on it.

[goodymatt]

What a strike that was by KWP, fantastic!

[Suhari]

Bosh. KWP with the top bin.

I've said it before and I'll say it again: we play incredible, scintillating football.

Exciting and inspirational to watch.

Pure joy on the eyes.

[Jonnyboy]

Lol, classic half time chat thread.

[CanadaSaint]

Hopefully KWP won’t get a bollocking for that - there was a pass available. 🤣

[Saint NL]

Lovely goal.

Need a second otherwise the usual nerves will kick in

[The Kraken]

So, if I recall correctly, that’s KWP’s second goal this season and both with his left foot?

Fixed it for you...

How are we playing, currently waiting for my flight in the US.

Usually a free scoring dynamo …. 🤷‍♂️

[goodymatt]

Is it me or is any tackle we make a foul? This ref is shite.

I think the fan who died at the match recently. 

[CB Fry]

How many times have we actually been 2-0 up this season? 

 

[igsey]

Great goal from KWP, we're lucky to have a player like him. When a team are defending so well and so rigidly, having a player that can pop up out of position and do that is invaluable.

[Saint NL]

Manning ffs, he's a liability

Those five yard passes are not easy.

Leeds and Brum 

[Saint NL]

Two good chances and we can't make them count.

 

[trousers]

Do we practice shooting weakly at the keeper in training? We're bloody good at it. 

[The Kraken]

Just now, trousers said:

Do we practice shooting weekly?

Maybe not that often.

Indeed! He’s the only thing stopping us from reverting to Martin’s “hold onto the lead” mode.

[saintant]

We've been better this half but it would have been hard not to be.

It's a constant surprise for their keeper, he's fumbled all of them.

Good tactics.

[goodymatt]

Much better second half, creating a lot more and looking much more controlled on the ball. Need that second goal desperately.

[Convict Colony]

Sort of not paid too much attention but has Che Adams touched the ball yet

He's playing a blinder. Again.

Sad of course but football getting so mawkish. Every match we have a minutes silence , black armbands and of course the rainbow virtue signaling
