Brentford 3-1 Saints - Match Thread

[Saint NL]

Unbelievable, we are so stupid 

[OttawaSaint]

4 goals out of 4 gifted in 3 games. *sigh*

[Baird of the land]

Pathetic there by bednarek

[SNSUN]

Now we hope ABK stays...

[AlexLaw76]

Russ ball at its finest

[benjii]

Fuck me.

[Lee On Solent Saint]

Brentford not going to have an easier game all season. 

[obelisk]

Another suicidal piece of defending. This cannot go on.

I actually like him more on the right side of midfield, so he can cut inside and open up his full range of passing. If he cuts inside on the left he can only reliably pass backwards.

I saw him for Rangers in that right side of midfield. He was happy to cut in. Could also support behind a front 2 or finsiher. Also got put up front on his own, and did okay, when there was an emergency.

[BotleySaint]

Bottom of the table. Relegation certain. Unless we change this suicidal tactics.

[Sheaf Saint]

Oh my fucking God this is ridiculous.

STOP

FUCKING

ABOUT

WITH 

IT!

[Roo1976]

were fucked

 

[Mr X]

I will get ripped apart but I'm sorry Russell Martin out this isn't going to work in the premier league 

[Master Bates]

Do we need a new keeper?

[Saint_clark]

Stephens involved with a goal conceded again. 

Martins style of play costing us AGAIN. 

MORE POSITIVES THAN NEGATIVES HE SAYS.

[Sunglasses Ron]

Gah, can someone let me know when it’s June please.

[Saint Fan CaM]

Brentford look to have an extra man over in attack - play so expansively compared to our lot.

And then Bednarek completely fucks up to gift them another. Relegation beckons.

[Saint Matty 76]

Start looking half decent going forward and pointlessly fuck it up at the back, it's suicide.

We're going down without a fight unless something drastic happens in the international break.

[badgerx16]

If he doesn't stop it now, sack him.

When will we learn????

Expand  

We've learned - just waiting for Russ to catch up. May take a while so much patience needed.

[Saint NL]

Talk about shooting yourself in the foot.

 

Commentator is absolutely right, ripping this suicidal football to pieces 

[Toussaint]

I do do enjoy watching us play around at the back, if relegation is the price to be paid for upholding one’s principles then so be it. 

[OttawaSaint]

Crowd were getting restless too, we were making progress and beadycuntytwatdickcockshitRussball fucks us AGAIN!

[stknowle]

Ridiculous. Just utterly ridiculous. Stupid, stupid cunt if he keeps turning us out to play like this.

[Suhari]

I may have been remiss in my prediction.

[HKsaint]

Be patient 

[Holmes_and_Watson]

Tator: "Another calamity at the back from Southampton. Will they ever learn."

co-tator: "This has relegation all over it. You can tell me a million times that this is how we play. Well, if that's the way you play, you'll get relegated."

 

[Disco Stu]

I just hope we can get our first goal of the season today. Russell just doesn't give any chance of getting a clean sheet.

Not when we defend like 8 year olds

[skintsaint]

Lol....just lol

The manager ? Never. SR hopefully very soon.

[CB Fry]

Still, Russell Martin is being softly marketed by Sport Republic as a “Golden Hen” coach.

[Sheaf Saint]

Every single goal we have conceded so far this season has been self inflicted.

Russ - either change it or fuck off.

[Jack]

Absolutely fucking embarrassing.

Fuck off Russ and your shit philosophy 

[VectisSaint]

FFS Ramsdale even worse than McCarthy.

It's heartbreaking as this says we have a squad that could compete but we are hamstring by the narcissist in charge.

[macca155]

Desperate, these tactics are ridiculous. Doesn't matter who you put in defence, none one can consistently play that way against the sort of press Brentford can impose.

 

[LGTL]

It ain’t changing, so get used to it. He’s a stubborn fucker who will be gone by xmas, with any luck. 

Oh good, 3-0.

So fucking obvious. We shipped far too many goals last season playing like this, it was never going to work in the Prem against a better press 

[Sussex_saint]

Don’t blame bednerak that much. He’s only doing what RM has told him to do, it could have been any of them in that situation. Stop this fucking messing around!

[SNSUN]

Fucking hell it gets worse. 

[Lee On Solent Saint]

Absolutely would sack him tonight. Use the international break to get someone else in. It's pathetic the way be play. 

[OldNick]

well the season has started and in 3 games AA , Macca and RM are being torn apart. 

I am as frustrated as anyone but we mustn't turn on ourselves 

[obelisk]

Long throw lumped into the box. 3-0.

No one is turning on each other, just the manager

[Saint NL]

Lol, it's a rout

[Southner]

What a joke.

[Topcat]

Playing the ball around at the back is just plain madness.

[Viking Saint]

Two defenders on one attacker and he still gets the flick on.....embarrassing
