  1. I agree that Mara shouldn;t have been the one coming off. Last week and this showed he's the most likely to create out of nothing.
  2. Our only chance was on the break, which isn;t likely to be repeated as Leicester will happily sit back a little. The opening pace of the second half was very slow. We've not had sustained posession all game. All things we now have to turn around if we are to get something from this.
  3. Would McCarthy have saved that? 🙂
  4. bah. free kick in a good position
  5. Good player. I hope she does really well.
  6. I remember thinking Carney was dreadful when I happened to hear her. That seemed to be over quite a while. The one night, she must have been sick of doing cliches, and offered a really insightful tactical breakdown of one of the teams. So it's in there somewhere. 🙂
  7. Co Commentator is kind saying that neither team did enough to get the lead. Leiciester were very dominant for the first 35 minutes. Lots of final third/ around and in the box clearances from us. But with Mara's effort we showed them that we could get them on the break. Although that was offside, the game shifted a little shortly afterwards. Saints were able to get forward a bit more. With them a little deeper, Mara wasn;t likely to be sprung loose again, and it showed that we were lacking in ideas up front. But still better to be there, than the giving the ball away with hoofs like the opening half hour. But with us getting over the half way line for a change, we left some gaps for Leicester to use their own outlets. So we still had a bit of defending to do up until half time. I imagine Ralph will be pleased with the outcome of the half, glossing over a lot of giving the ball away cheaply and plenty of deep defending. We might not get many chances here, but hopefully another Mara erffort, but onside, will be the difference today.
  8. KWP going to be carded if he keeps moaning. They were both fouls that he's moaning about as well.
  9. crumbs! We had a few passes there. In their half, no less!
  10. Salisu gets the ball back, but shows his centre half skills with a poor touch taking it out of play in the end >sigh< another poor long throw routine.
  11. whew. Back on his feet.
  12. Uh Oh. Could McCarthy be warming up?
  13. My next line was going to be that we've set up to contain them (which considereing our record won;t work) and then Mara goes up and puts it in the net. Even if it was offside that would have been another incorrect comment in a minute for me. Can't moan at the team until I up my comments. 🙂
  14. Ah. I am corrected. Sorry Mr Manager.
  15. Keeping possession for more than a few seconds would help here. No idea why Adams isn;t starting. Must be his turn for the naughty corner.
  16. It's a bit one way at the moment.
  17. Saints Fire Sale! Get your discounted players here! 🙂
  18. Explorers assembled - check Boat built - check Quest revealed and underway - check But our heroes encounter the skeletons of Saints' previous transfer duds...
  19. If this sets a precedent for rumour threads, as per the really desperate "A thread each for any half decent rumour", what's to stop someone flooding the board with any old rubbish link? They'll point to this thread and say "what's good for the goose, is good for the garner." 🙂
  20. Appointment
