Low IQ Brooks, ignores overlap tries to shoot through a defender...FFS!

The through ball there was so obvious. Why did he try and shoot FFS!

Come on Saints FFS!

Has anyone seen the bird with the blue hair?

He's only got the league 2nd top scorer there, nah, doesn't trust him...

WBA certainly looking dangerous on the break. Saints making it easy with all the back passing.

[SNSUN]

Close WBA eek

[Saint NL]

That could have gone anywhere

[OttawaSaint]

Bloody hell, this is stressful...

I'm waiting.

[trousers]

What happened there?!

Haha what were you expecting dude!

[Holmes_and_Watson]

Meeps. That could have deflected in.

[Suhari]

Fuck me. An artificial leg.

[SNSUN]

Nice ideas with the runners. Need one to count.

[Lighthouse]

If we’re still in this league next year, it’ll be a shame not to have THB.

Yes, yesterday. A blue jay at my birdfeeder...

[trousers]

If Fraser can control one of these through balls we'll be laughing...

We're definitely the better team overall. Means nothing without goals though.

[obelisk]

WBA doing a good job here. Saints have reverted to passing it around the back.

This, and penalty misses from Kamel, Edozie, and Mara...

God damn them - making us play in a way we're unfamiliar with!

[Mr X]

We aren't putting four past west brom that's for sure 🤣

[SNSUN]

Attempt by Brooks after a slip from KWP.

[Saint Billy]

West Brom look comfortable containing us.

[trousers]

Brooks needs to look at his options rather than shooting every time...

Depends if we get to penalties... 😬

[OttawaSaint]

Can we go back to the exciting effective play we had during some of that unbeaten run?

This is so predictable and ponderous.

He's only here for maybe 1 and a half more games. Best cover himself in as much glory as possible.

[Holmes_and_Watson]

Brooks more involved at least. Can see KWP being key.

[Saint NL]

Fraser not really on it so far

He's been off the boil for a while now

[Disco Stu]

Worst possible scenario.

[SNSUN]

Gone a bit bitty

Uh oh Downes down

[obelisk]

Saints have managed to quiet the crowd.

[Saint_clark]

Oh no Downes down....

[Saint NL]

Downes looks fucked, oh ffs

[Mr X]

If it goes to penalties it's even more certain that we ain't, we are beyond terrible at penalty shootouts!

Game over if he can't continue...

[saint lard]

Total wankfest on Sky and TalkSPORT about Leeds getting to Wembley. 
all but confirmed it seems they are promoted. 
whoever plays them in the final will be classed as also rans. 
we need a big performance tonight,not only to get through the tie, but to not be written off by mainstream media as beaten finalists already. 
please put in a decent shift tonight Saints. 
I think we need that to lift the confidence for a prospective final  against Leeds.

This style of play isn't great for maintaining an intense atmosphere.

[Holmes_and_Watson]

Dreadful throw in

[OttawaSaint]

Oh FFS, Downes crocked!

[Holmes_and_Watson]

Downes got an early knock. He's been vital and would be a massive loss.

[coalman]

Don't worry we have a like for like replacement for Downes in Rothwell.

[Suhari]

Didn't the West Brom manager hijack Tom Hank's boat one time?

Or am I mistaken?

[OttawaSaint]

Players don't look that bothered.

[trousers]

Every time we get a sniff on goal they've got 5 defenders on our 1 attacker...

[SNSUN]

Corner Saints. 

[Mr X]

Have we been good enough so far?
