die Mannyschaft

It maybe that the plan is or next season to become a Russball team with a bit of counter with Scienza, Arma, Fellows with Charles as cover. Playing out from back is firmly cemented into Saints and a lot of teams. Certainly more licence to run and dribble but its not licence to kill off the game. 6th will be a bonus but we re too inconsistent even in 90 mins there are blocks of 10 mins great interplay, running off ball, 10 mins confusion, 10 mins panic, 10 mins sit back, 10 mind sub on all change just rotates round and round. We are creating more chances which is better than just 3 per game !!

Good point, that make worse. Just checked both Saints and Oxford have let in 31 goals!

Coventry fans very quite on the train back I think they expected to ease passed Saints 4-0. Not much banter more interested in Boro score.

Saints don't do anything quickly most of the game. Don't forget we play 9 not 11 as always players returning from injury, not match fit, on for one half only etc.

Totally agree, back to square one (or back to keeper ). We will have 1,678 passes.

This is an absolute 3 points sitter and another Charlton away performance. Unless of course we continue to incorporate walking football, side to side and not shooting at goal when in box. I'll go safety first 0-0. A point is better than nothing.

In 43 and didn't hear anything. There was more barrcking of Saints players who have forgot RM is not in the dugout but continue to play side to side.

I counted about 9 times we were on the edge of box or 1m in and instead of shooting into top corner which isn't difficult as they practiced it in warm up the ball goes back to centre stop the left wing, right wing etc. Apart from Scienza we need to shoot quickly. We have gone back to flat walking sideways which doesn't help in motivating the crowd. A lot of fans looked bored.

All previous games and anything attended at St Mary's like signing session and penalty shoot-out gone.

Play him for 90 mins v Doncaster as that's likley to be a 2nd team. Should be able to control and run that game for Saints.

Won't happen as modern football is all about stats and potential stats in next game.

Have we got any tall players in U21s who are forwards and can run plus head the ball?

We need wins to keep with the 8 above. We struggle to keep on the front foot against anyone half decent. I think its the style of play that Saints adopted. Charlton away was a one off that Saints showed the leaque how good we are. But that was against a useless team and no other team is that bad. I don't think we will get anyone in window as the players we have can be as good as the Charlton away so club will hope for that performance level even if it takes two seasons

Definitely a red. Agree Fellows needs to be on and more forward thinking play. We are now on Russell Martin plus Gold.

Better 2nd half, at we kept going. A bit sideways RM plus. Good job they had a red card and played for draw with players sitting down pretending to be injured. Lampard bad losser

Not winning tacles on right. Keep losing balls in midfield. Not getting 2nd ball. Scienza may just as well play as tge whole month and forward. Mostly ot played. If we don't shoot quickly irdt time we won't score. Oh well at least we have it confirmed what our level is. 7th or 8th

That would explain it.

Won't make any difference. If you that good creating chances and scoring loads of goals and top table by miles the whole 11 plus subs must be quality. If we have one player out we struggle.

Only about 60 at 8 aways for Doncaster. Are there really nearly 3000 that have 9+ aways.

If its a small amount of tickets for home fair enough but not away games for sponsors. I've got a few away games allways at end allocation like Chelsea and WHU where it looked sold out then maybe 20 back on. Chunks of 100 is not on should go to those who are regular fans paying money to watch home games, paying membership anx season tickets. Give them free tickets to Belgium v Ivory cost in WC or Euros not key Saints games fans could go to.

By time I got in on 9 at 12.30pm only 2 left.

Are there more than 300 ? Or just 150?

I thought club said a week ago there will be no Jan buys as already got enough new players. Do we get any parachute payment next season? We have no cover if any starting 11 out but guess lub just looks at the back of programme and sees 34 players.

That's nothing left, will go in 10 mins. Won't reach my allocation last slot tomorrow.

Got Coventry ticket showing in ticket app now. Didn't need the e mail PIN
