Leicester 5-0 Saints - Match Thread

[Holmes_and_Watson]

Leicester centre half, played by Boris Karloff, finally gets a booking. For mouthing, rather than for all the nasty tackles.

[Midfield_General]

What this needs is five attackers being thrown on

[Saint NL]

23 minutes left to get a shot on target. Can we do it?

[Saint Scott]

We are nothing without Downes, he is vital for the playoffs.

[JCBSaint]

Jellyfish Fc losing 2-0

wtf is it with this team? Sidewards, backwards, no urgency,, it’s so boring and shows we have no bottle

. 
 

we have to step up in the playoffs or it’s pointless even showing up

It was a complete hospital pass

[Sir Ralph]

Shameful performance

I miss the scheduled Ralph 'injuries'.

[Mr X]

On the bright side at least we will be going into the playoffs on good form

I don't. Reckon I'm gonna switch it off and watch the snooker instead.

Thing is you do, so do I, that’s the problem. 

[StrangelyBrown]

Same old shit different day.

Is it a lack of bravery, scar tissue or just that dominating possession without testing the keeper doesn't really work?

I can't see how this gets any better.

[adrian lord]

In other news, ex-Saints manager Pochettino must be fearing for his job as they ship 5 at Arse with 20+ mins to go. 

[Elmore Saint]

I don't give a toss if we get beat, I just want us to fucking try...

[Saint NL]

Every time we do get the ball forward we are offside. Real basic stuff

[Morse]

Will we get another point this season? I doubt it. 

[gammon cheeks]

So many goals conceded ..never change under this manager

Sadly I fear it's going to be a repeat of his previous injury, when he was 'close' every game and then still out for over a month.

I suspect we've already seen him play his last game for us.

[Whitey Grandad]

“Edozie offside again”

I don't see it that way. They are trying, but we simply just ain't good enough to play when teams press us hard.

[Challenger]

If anyone thinks these owners, this manager, this brittle team and this " style" of football is going to progress the club, they are absolutely deluded.

[Holmes_and_Watson]

Possibly our best chance, but Edozie offside again. No telling final ball from him.

[Wade Garrett]

Really fucking bored of this Chuckle Brothers football.

How is Shogun? Watched the first episode and thought it incredible. Worth continuing?

It's excellent, lots of falling on one's swords, bit like Saints' defending.

[macca155]

Leicester 17 fouls to Saints 4

Offsides 1 to Saints 6

14 shots to Saints 5

You don't need to know much more about the game.

Simply a better side.

the midfield has been the problem all season with the lack of control against decent sides

[obelisk]

Another cross into Saints box. There's a theme developing.

[madge]

How is Adam Armstrong still on the pitch.. showing just how poor he is playing against premier league players.. hasn’t gone past his man once. 
Garbage and we’ve given up..

[Saint NL]

Did I read that right? The stats for fouls committed was 19-4 (we got the 4)

Have we really had 3 shots..? I can’t remember 1

What’s actually wrong with him this time? Great player but a bit of a pussy it seems.

Ah, Hari kari. That's about honour, though. Like fuck would our players do that - they'd miss the sword.

[Mixedkebab]

What a team full of drips, not a proper set of bollocks on any of them.

This is what comes of hipster ownership and obsession over “ballers” at all costs  instead of character and mentality

But... remember.......possession.

 

[obelisk]

Saints in an attacking position on the edge of the box. Ball goes back to Saints half where they give it away. Again.

Oops. Let’s all stand back and let them run riot shall we?

[saintant]

Fucking idle wasters.

[Lee On Solent Saint]

Put a fuckin tackle in, bunch of fuckin cowards

[Saint NL]

Fraser to come on, hardly any point now

[Saint_clark]

If we go up we risk coming back down with record low points playing this style of football.

[obelisk]

Saints just let him stroll through them, have a shot and score. This defence is hopeless.

[Mr X]

A mauling and nothing less than we've deserved 

[saintant]

Brave defending there Russ.

[John Boy Saint]

Ha-ha - hot knife through butt……..nothing

[Lighthouse]

Another none-tackle from Manning.

[Block41 Saint]

Yep, just let them shoot you useless cunts. 

No fight, no passion. Let's get the PO bottlejob out the way and sack this manager. 

[coalman]

This performance is every bit as bad as we witnessed last season under Ralph, Jones or Selles.
