Viking Saint

Fox spent the entire game tucked tightly in alongside Hooiveld, exposing a huge amount of space for Spurs to exploit....I disagree with Hooiveld trying, he'd given up with half an hour to go, got beaten at one point and simply stopped and gave up....embarrassing to see a performance like that from a Saints player....on the whole, today was appalling, only a couple of players looked like they were vaguely up for it, and people need to stop banging on about Ramirez's 'world class' pass to Lallana, one decent pass is the least we should be expecting from a player of his calibre...

****ing embarrassing how poor our defence is

Can't blame Gazza for kit keeping out a volley from 5 yards...far more to the point, wtf were Hooiveld and Fox doing ball watching and putting no pressure on Adebayor whatsoever....embarrassing defending...up till this, there's only been one are on the pitch....

Cork on, Wanyama off

Anyone else feel that this could be a pivotal moment in our season?? After exceeding expectations for so long, two away defeats at tough grounds, this is the kind of game which will show just what we're really all about and have the nous, management skills and calibre of player to deliver??

Is Osvaldo coming on purely tactical or has JWP picked up a knock?

Hardly surprising given how much this bloody ref is giving them.....

is the draw tonight?? anyone know??

He did, hung himself in a lock-up in Shoreditch....was apparently scared that a warrant had been issued for his arrest for sexual assault of a minor in the US....turns out there wasn't one and his fears were unfounded....Clough's description of their situation in his book was very interesting....he really regretted his treatment of Fashanu but admitted he had no idea of how to handle him....

very very poor today and lucky to only be 0-1....offered no threat and no plan B....really disppointing....

I find some attitudes strange on here....this is a competition that the 'bigger' clubs don't prioritise, so it's one we should be targeting...day at Wembley and European football anyone??? I'd like the easiest possible draw at home please, all the way to the final, just like 2003 where we had the luck of the draw....

Reading 5-0 down......

don't want to tempt fate, but does anyone know when the draw is for the next round??

Given the fiscal prudence that NC has ruthlessly displayed throughout his time here, I'm not in the slightest bit concerned whatsoever...given his financial background, I bet he can account for every penny the club spends....yes, we've spent a bit of money especially for us but its still a **** in the ocean compared to the money that's been thrown around the Premiership in recent years....time to buckle up and enjoy the ride....it's great to be a Saint

my stream froze momentarily just as SRL was stepping up....luckily it came back on immediately after a few rude words!! VW MotM for me....his ball control had been questioned on here before but everytime he had the ball, the WBA players just seemed to bounce off him....I thought the ref was poor though, some ****e decisions....Ramirez didn't do much when he came on but right now I'm high as a kite!!

fantastic start...deserved that...looked very good in patches....great save from Boruc to save the 3 points though....bloody great feeling, away win on opening day, COYR!!!!

am struggling to get anything up and running....anybody else having any luck??

to be honest....I really couldn't care one iota.....Rickie's night and we can take pride in it....

OMFG....unbelievable....how can Woy not pick him again after this....change of pants needed

agree entirely, probably just about deserved the win though....

Connolly penalty back of the net....skate ****s

lovl......

I agree entirely, and don't know why so many on here seem to be disinterested in this....this is a competition we should having a serious pop at...ticket to Europe, Final at Wembley, what's not to like about it???

given away woefully and no one shut him down....there is nothing positive to report here....we look bloody awful
