FOOTBALL CRAZY

In view of RK complaints about time-wasting, the rules are that the keeper can only hold the ball for six seconds in his hands. I reckon that opposing keepers hold on to the ball for more than this a lot of the time. Could the Northam end start a count from 1 to whatever to put pressure on the referee to control this better. This should then force the keeper to stop doing it. Just a thought.

Dickson by a mile - Harding's performance was very poor at Carlisle. I know that was only one game but at times in other games he gets caught out of position Dickson offers so much more going forward and defensively is just as good if not better

Likewise, was on the Bingo Bus and was a long day. With the exception of Davis who was not to blame and Harding who was dreadful, thought the rest were just nothing special. It is alright blaming formations but we got caught out for the first goal, the own goal was comical and the third was a free header from a set piece - I cannot believe a goalkeeper and a centre half(Adkins and Crosby) cannot sort out our vulnerability from corners. I thought Carlisle just about deserved to win but not because they were that good but mainly due to our defending. We also waste so much good possession and make it much harder for ourselves. Today was another opportunity for 3 points and they blew it - no excuses for the pitch or the weather as conditions were almost ideal for football.

If "Left Back" is in the know, can he pass on the thoughts of this W****r to the team for tomorrow, might just help their motivation !!!

Totally agree - all football fans are fickle. Have a look at the Norwich City Forum where they are slating Roeder. On another day -Sibierski's header or the one on ones with Kelvin could easily have lead to Saints not winning or even drawing and it would be doom and gloom on this site. There is a fine line(take the Blackpool game where Jamie White cost us the game- that is NOT a dig or a criticism, it is a fact). Support them all the time on the pitch but only judge them over a period of time, not just one game

Would be a good signing. He was part of the S****horpe team that basically played us off the park last season although we scrambled a 1 0 win.
