[Osvaldorama]

Not really arsed. We are never winning at anfield anyway. We just need to save our legs for the league

I've got the skate on mine. Just spent five minutes describing how shit we were last season.

My guy sounds like one of the early SKy commentators. He went off to do the PPV boxing, but I know he did some football commentary at one point too.

Would rather lose now than draw to be fair. Could do without an extra midweek fixture with the winner going on to get pumped at Anfield.

Holgate with one that at least got a reaction.

[Chez]

what a great opportunity there, Mara calls for it, gets the ball he wants in the box but just doesn't do enough.

We are looking better though.

same guy. Ian Darke.

3-1 Liverpool...

[Holmes_and_Watson]

Smallbone: Nice poisition to first set up Alcaraz, then try to clean up when Charli tries to take everyone on.

THB is really peeved at being behind here. Crunching challenge. Lovely to see.

[die Mannyschaft]

Thank god its Liverpool away as they are not a priority so would have been another game a dead rubber.

Ah. Is he. I've just slapped away any hint of nostalgia from hearing his voice. 🙂

[AlexLaw76]

I know this commentator has been around for various sports a long time, but he is terrible for this game

[Block41 Saint]

Hoedt has been class for them. 

[Holmes_and_Watson]

Dennis on the run... Dennis on the run... THB gets him. Always impressive.

[Chez]

fucking brilliant from Stu there to run down the break there.

Found his level. Just like Stephens.

[Holmes_and_Watson]

Smnallbone does relly well to sneak into that position, only for the pass to be a let down.

Seconds later, one of our trade mark cut backs doens;t come off.

We were top half of the Prem when he played for us, now he's looking good for a side 10th in the Championship. Not too fussed.

[Elmore Saint]

Such a shame that the FA Cup has come to this. Draw known before all initial games played. The league now so much more important so teams sacrifice their participation. The "magic" of the cup is sadly no more....

The magic has been destroyed by TV

[macca155]

Last 10 mins has been the Saints we've seen last few months.

Good more of that, keep the form going but bow out of the FA cup and avoid that Liverpool away game.

Gets that unbeaten run monkey off our back as well

[Saint Fan CaM]

Really don’t want Liverpool so happy to lose now.

[SNSUN]

Woke up after my sleep after night shift and... goal.

[Block41 Saint]

Stu!

[Saint Fan CaM]

Oh fuck. Bring on the Pool. 😂😂😂

[Saint Scott]

Stuey!

[Holmes_and_Watson]

Stu~!!!!

[AlexLaw76]

That was a class goal

[GrumpyYorkshireSaint]

Woke the office up with that goal!

[Saint Matty 76]

Stuart Armstrong a different level to be fair

SAA been impressive too

Holgate, Alcaraz and Mara abysmal

[OttawaSaint]

Stuuuuu! That's quality!

[Saint Billy]

Ha ha!!!!

[Viking Saint]

Stu!!!!!!

[ButtikonSaint]

STUEEEEEEEEEEEYYYYY 😀

[Colinjb]

Right, late winner now boys. 

[Holmes_and_Watson]

Lovely drivign run and shot... gets back out to Stu... who with his class... takes a touch and makes sure with a lovely shot... Stu takes out loads of players with that effort!

[Sunglasses Ron]

The unbeaten run goes on (and on and on and on)!

[Saint_clark]

Reminded me of a David Connolly finish there.

[SNSUN]

Oh god... a replay! Still keeps the unbeaten run going. 

 

Maybe the unbeaten run ends at Liverpool? 😁

[davefizzy14]

Get in! Stuart Armstrong 😊

[Midfield_General]

Absolute class from Stu

[Chez]

Watford parked the bus. Didnt work.Lets get a winner.

[OttawaSaint]

4-1 Liverpool 

[Saint Matty 76]

Been a different level since we made those four subs, which pretty much alleviates any worries I had about the hour beforehand

He's been quality all season. Looked like his best days were gone last season, but he's bounced back really well.

He sold a far post shot to most of the Watford team and then went near post.

[Holmes_and_Watson]

Close there.THB header.
