John Boy Saint

Its like watching football in the School playground - what a pigs ear, its all half baked faffing about outside the box 1-3 easy peasy lemon squeezy.

The gutless capitulation against WH before Christmas and Ralph not happy saw the reset button get hit and we went on a little run, hopefully with Ralphs comments post Saturdays game feeling like deja vu hopefully reset will be hit again. Trouble is when you click through the turnstile on a matchday you have no idea what is going to be on the menu when the ref blows the whistle to start the game. Will it be Al-dente or just soft and soggy? Given up guessing

Well that corner just about sums up the game

We've just looked half baked this afternoon - some of the passing has been pants

Boy some stinky performances being put in today - Bednarek - McCarthy - Armstrong - Long - Hoj -

Jeez Hojbjerg stuck a 2nd class stamp on that one!

Ooooo 3 at the back.......................ho hum

piece of p i s s for them!

ah the obligatory 9-0 thrown into the commentary within the minute of the 2nd half

So whats the thinking with Valery and Walker Peters on the bench, if Smallbone is being bulldozed in midfield bring one of them on to allow JWP to slide into the middle?

Zaha has a charmed life man handles the sub who kicked the ball back at him spits too - Sub booked bugger all for Zaha not even a chat with the ref. VAR "Nothing to see here".

Cortese, Nik- nak didn’t like some of the things that were said in the Echo by LM when he had taken up the reins after Markus passed away. Think things went south after the photo of Saints winning the cup was replaced by a painting of a steam loco that was given to Saints by Doncaster Rovers. My chronology might be a tad awry.

Where’s Dalek when we need him?

No Brainer - what took them so long.

Hmmmmmm "Possession Won" what it doesn't say is having won the ball more often than not its suddenly turned into a Baked Spud just out of the oven or a Grenade with the pin out ....................I will add less so since Villa away. Be good to see him put the For Sale signs up by rattling in some goals instead of trying to knock Mrs Miggins false teeth out having smashed the ball into her chops up in row BB

Like I said just a thought, and you are right if they had it they would be nowhere near the team. But rather concerning still that both of them looked like they were blowing out of their backsides after a couple of runs - Obafemi looked like he was a 40 a day chap and had been since the age of 5!

Mrs JBS said she thought both Che and Obafemi both looked knackered within minutes of coming on v Villa and just having a couple of runs - a Customer I saw yesterday who was also at the game on Saturday said the same without prompting. If the rumours about Valery having Glandular Fever are true, it is infectious with a protracted incubation period and generally affects mainly young adults. Who knows. Very strange that the pair of them looked jiggered so quickly. Just a thought

Anthony Taylor on the whistle for this one - another one like Pawson last Saturday who can change with the weather (which looks windy, wet, and cold by the way) - Stuart Attwell will be taking his life in his hands, minding the van full of TV’s outside the stadium in an east London car park. Although VAR is increasingly making the Man in the van and his Assistant almost more important that the Ref running about on the grass.

He’s gotten away with allsorts down through the years, last man, touch felt on Jesus back before he put his hand on his shoulder pretty much the whole Real side would have gone down like they had been hit by a sniper hidden in the floodlights armed with a 50 Caliber rifle loaded with hollow tip bullets if the boot were on the other foot

Excellent - All is well in the World...............(not excellent that you have no life beyond this TSP and UI though )

Errrr??! Has anyone heard from Billy / Glen - He's gone quiet (not that anyone could blame him after Burnley) just hoping he is alright. Sorry to those of you expecting a read of his next installment

He’s been our Kryptonite for ages, so will be no surprise if he does.

Hey Shroppie (re the other thread) I I stand corrected on you standing corrected - Antonio playing in the JWP zone tonight, that said he didn’t look comfortable on the left.

Liverpool look like they just needed to turn up - they look too casual

Have I stepped into the Twilight Zone???!!! First I thought Dark Munster was mucking about yesterday - turns out he wasn’t. Now we have Whelk seeing a new page and re stoking Dark Munsters embers. for those un sure ANDY CARROLL AKA MY LITTLE DONKEY WENT BACK TO NEWCASTLE IN AUGUST LAST YEAR!! So look out for his appearance a week this Saturday in a Newcastle Shirt..
