That is fucking awful....oh God...

Normal service resumed

[Toadhall Saint]

Just sucks the life out of you

[Sheaf Saint]

Oh Macca.

[Mr X]

Awful decision making from McCarthy 

[Turkish]

FFS Macarthy 

“the only time Liverpool have been a threat is when Mcarthys been involved” 🤣🤣🤣🤣

[Saint Billy]

I have no words.

[DT]

McCarthy you absolute pile of fucking shit

Yep. I'm exhausted. Head in hands. 

[Sheaf Saint]

That is just an utterly ridiculous goal to concede.

[saintant]

Why do we gift wrap so many goals!!!!

[Saint_clark]

Straight after we should have had a penalty. Corrupt as fuck, fuck off Liverpool, fuck off PGMOL, fuck off VAR.

[Mr X]

We aren't getting anything from this game

Because our players aren't good enough maybe?

[Harry_SFC]

McCarthy should be no where near this side. No way Lumley can be as bad as this guy.

[DT]

Shooting ourselves in the foot again. How has he had a career as a pro goalie? Shoot him now. 

[coalman]

Don't worry, Liverpool will fade. We've got this

[OttawaSaint]

Own worst enemy. Why come out like that?

 

[Saint Fan CaM]

Then McCarthy pulls off a Wordly save. Defo Marmite!

Only we can concede goals like that.

[Sir Ralph]

We have given them 2 goals

 

 

[Saint_clark]

When we went 2-1 up my brain said 2-3.

He’s a stop it/catch it/kick it long goalkeeper. When he does that he’s fine.

He’s got sucked in by all the Russell bullshit and started thinking he needs to be a sweeper keeper.

Slot's 'pool are always stronger second half, unfortunately.

It's not corruption, it's... just an inescapable whirlwind of pain and suffering and shit.

Wasn’t a worldie - the bloke is terrible

[John Boy Saint]

Why not shoot there?

[Saint_clark]

McCarthys lost his head, he's all over the place now.

Can't put it all down to that I'm afraid.

[obelisk]

Loads of room behind the Liverpool defence. Play it in there for runners. Mind you, Saints seem to be running out of puff again. Fitness not up to it?

Yet good enough to get a new contract.

[OttawaSaint]

I hate watching RM's Saints.

Yeah, I'm convinced fitness is a big problem for us. Which is inexcusable from a management perspective.

More fannying around.

[Saint Fan CaM]

Russ has told them emphatically to ensure there’s no more of that fucking attacking shit…everything is about the defence keeping the ball in our half. Muppetry.

He is.

Just can't keep the ball now. Going to be a long 20 minutes. 

[OttawaSaint]

Liverpool have been there for the taking today and we've gift wrapped them 2 goals so far. 

[DT]

If you cut Armstrong it says ‘Championship’ all the way through him

After two goals created by direct attacking play as well. 

[Gloucester Saint]

Crowd need to give this renewed bout of playing around the back the bird again. It helped earlier with the cheers for Alex’s long kick and need to drive the players in a forwards direction here or it’s a long last 15.

Commentator just said "Southampton asking questions of themselves"

That save wasn’t even a worldie though (for a professional goalkeeper). It’s a routine save which, through his acrobatics, he makes to look amazing.

We so often ignore the runners in behind, becomes predictable that we’ll turn back inside

The players should have the answer from their first goal and both of ours, but the manager isn’t the sharpest tool in the shed.

Saints level, no thanks to Martin's dangerously psychotic obsession with possession. 

The Liverpool goal was due to overpossession. The equaliser was solely down to dribbling Dibling ignoring the pass pass pass mantra

Times two then
