[The Kraken]

Pretty weak shot from WBA, luckily. Should’ve buried that.

Stewart already done more than Mara has.

True, no comparison in quality. If only he had been available more this season

Such a tough one to decide who is the better keeper out of McCarthy and Bazunu.

Expand  

McCarthy even at his age

Is that really a question?! 

[macca155]

WBA have Inspector Gadget in goal

[obelisk]

There's going to be about half an hour of added time at this rate.

[Holmes_and_Watson]

"Gets away from Stephens". Ummmm..

I trust Alex in there for shot stopping over the others.

Steward does what we've not had since Tella and the first Fraser appearances. Get it it from deep, bring it in and shoot.

On evidence, probably not

[Saint_clark]

Subs for WBA before our corner...hopefully a bit of confusion in their defence.

I think we've grown accustomed to every shot on target going in. It's strange to consider that it could be saved.

Meh. Should have held it 😉

If that's Bazunu, we're 0-1 down

MLG to the main board please. That's MLG to the board.

Not when he's fit either

FFS... get on with it... about 3 minutes to make 4 subs....

Tbf any decent keeper at this level should be making those saves. It’s shows how far our benchmarks have fallen.

[Mr X]

They are going to be strong for the last ten minutes, four changes! 

[SNSUN]

Fucking hell Saints wankers

[BotleySaint]

Stephens again.. 

[Micky]

We're gonna give it away....

[Whitey Grandad]

WTF are you doing?

[SNSUN]

Stop bloody passing it across the box

[CB Fry]

So brave there.

[obelisk]

Stephens with another hospital pass leads to panic stations.

[James]

Jack Stephens has been absolutely terrible. What the hell is he doing?

[Gingeletiss]

Suicidal football by us, crazy stuff.

[AlexLaw76]

Fraser LWB....it seems

[Saint NL]

Christ, we nearly gave them a goal. Stop pissing around at the back

[Disco Stu]

We faff like that against a Premier League team it would get ugly.

[Saint_clark]

Stephens with another fucking shit pass to Bednarek who has to blast it out of play.

[Mr X]

Jesus Christ just clear it!!!!!?

[The Kraken]

What the fucking cunt are they doing?

[Viking Saint]

Just clear the fucking ball!!!

[BotleySaint]

2-3 times a game we do that. Idiots. 

[Holmes_and_Watson]

FFS Saints. Never, ever learn when to just get it clear.

[Whitey Grandad]

Nobody ever scored from the Royal Box.

Just get rid of it!

[Suhari]

I apologise for the screams of "GET RID OF IT YOU DICKS!" Ringing out from the depths of Kings Wothy.

[The Kraken]

Be tempted to get Bree on at LB, Also a bit of fresh legs in midfield.

You're in kings worthy? 👀

[Saint_clark]

Midfield players are non stop pointing at the defenders to pass it backwards. 

FUCK OFF!!!

[verlaine1979]

Even teams who excel at playing it out from the back don't pass it multiple times into the six yard box under that kind of pressure. It's not clever, it's stupid.

[SNSUN]

Sort it out lads. 

[obelisk]

Stephens again. Bloody liability.

[Micky]

Stephens is an absolute liability....

[Mr X]

Poor in this last 15 minutes

Stealing a living, complete liability.

Ending the second half as we started the first....

[lambtiss]

Is Stephens trying to hand this match to West Brom

He’s been absolutely awful. To think we upended the balance of a decent defence to fit him in.
