Everton 1-1 (5-6p) Saints - Match Thread

[obelisk]

Saints score!!

[Viking Saint]

Woot!!!

[Suhari]

Ohhh.

We did an goal.

[Lee On Solent Saint]

A goal!! From a set piece too!!

[Mr X]

We are so bland and boring to watch it's unreal, nailed on relegation candidates and we will finish dead bottom 

[Whitey Grandad]

I was just about to say that THB looks a lot more confident tonight.

[Holmes_and_Watson]

Yippee! THB!

[Disco Stu]

Need Harwood-Bellis to make a good account of himself to keep Stephens out.

[Sheaf Saint]

Yay! A header on target!

[6ft8saint]

Hope that helps his confidence. Go on THB!!!!

[coalman]

Everton are going to be spooked by this. Nobody expects Saints to get a shot on target let alone score a goal.

[Saint_clark]

Shush, we want it that way. 

[Lighthouse]

We were supposed to let the, go 2-0 up FFS! Honestly, do we even scout their games?!

[Sheaf Saint]

Oh Dixon was booked it seems. Cameras must have missed it.

In truth I didn't even cheer.

I'm hypnotised by the turgid shitness of our 'style'.

[Bobsmith]

Great goal. Not even sure why armstrong is on the pitch. Bring on the loch ness monster!

 

[obelisk]

RM will be disappointed to see that free kick put into the penalty area lick that.

[Wsaint]

Told you. Played right in to our trap... Genius russ

[SNSUN]

Wood is a bit crap isn't he.

[verlaine1979]

Wtf Bree - Cornet was on for the one two in acres.

[saintant]

Wood is such a donkey.

[Saint Billy]

I don't ch believe it ch.

Just kept trying harder and harder to give away a free kick there. Idiot.

Exactly he is totally ineffective at centre forward but let’s keep doing this again again !

Another of Russell's mates getting chances ahead of someone much more deserving.

I would love to know how Martin pitched this signing to the club and thank fuck Swansea rejected a far higher offer from us 12 months ago. 

[6ft8saint]

Have they been told to turn everything backwards bree is so frustrating tonight 

[macca155]

There are some positives from tonight so far.

Saints scored a goal, a rarity these days

THB and Frazer playing well

Big Les looking a lot more confident.

Now let's take this game to Everton.

[Lighthouse]

Ugo lucky there, ran into three tackles.

[CanadaSaint]

THB looking quite solid and Stephens not playing is not a coincidence.

Brees played it down the line for Cornet a few times so far, not sure he's done much wrong.

[SNSUN]

Wood again trying to rape an Everton player.

[macca155]

Wood is not only way off the standard required at the moment but he is also cruising for multiple yellows

Les definitely has something about him. Once he settles in him, Downes and Fernandes could be a decent midfield. Lallana has looked quite tidy so far too. I said Smallbone earned his chance this year but already he's drooped down to 5th if not 6th choice.

[hypochondriac]

Wood is such a limited player. Typical championship. 

[Saint_clark]

Lesley who isn't used to our style went for the through ball. 

Fraser who played all last season was stood waiting for the ball to feet. 

Make the run FFS.

[saintant]

AA is a waste of space through the middle.

He's a natural 

[obelisk]

I don't think Everton are particularly worried. Saints have loads of possession but they're doing nothing with it. Just wait for the chance to attack with pace.

Says everyone bar Russ

[saintant]

Wood again - he makes Holgate look good.

[Micky]

Wtf is wood doing? 

[Saint NL]

I'm enjoying Woods industrial approach to defending

[Wade Garrett]

Wood is extremely average.

[Wiggles31]

This is a dreadful game to watch. Too predictable. Are we trying to bore them to death ffs. 

[Sheaf Saint]

Very poor again from Wood there.

I'm far from convinced by Taylor either.
