That was a team completely bereft of any structure, leadership or ideas. We'll do well to stay up.

Saints haven't exactly peppered the Hull goal. I'm expecting a Hull 3rd.

A measley 4 minutes added. Ref has a train to catch.

Saints looking out of attacking ideas.

Leo well tackled by the pitch.

Fellows was looking dangerous with attacking intent so he gets taken off to a round of booing. Toxic Tonda.

Hull attack at pace. Win a corner. Dangerous.

If Armstrong were 6ft he might have buried that cross.

Towards the end of the half Jander was looking for the left wing and there was nobody there. I suspect Manning is hiding from the crowd in the centre circle.

As soon as Hull had that corner it was so predictable that the ball would be won in the air by a Hull player. Keeper was out of position though. Can't say that we've not had any chances to score though but as usual the complete lack of composure in attack screws us. Get one soon after half time and there might be the chance of grabbing a point in our fight against relegation. Not likely though. I predict 1-3.

Carry on with this clown of a coach and relegation is a real possibility.

Another corner not defended. 0-2. This is going to get ugly.

Corner to Hull. Dangerous.

Crowd's getting a bit sick of the walking football.

It comes from the endless fannying around at the back.

What a mess. Manning with a great through pass to them. 0-1.

Well it's nice to see some shots on target.

Poor miss by Saints.

Hull leaving plenty of room at the back.

Good save. Hull all over us.

I'm expecting another good point today in Saints effort to stay clear of the relegation places. My hope and expectation is for lower mid table security. Anything more than that would be a bonus of course.

They're as bad at defending corners as Saints. Could be 4-4 when Saints pop down there.

Currently closer to the bottom than the top and putting in relegation form performances. Unable to defend balls into our own penalty area and quick to feel sorry for ourselves when put under pressure. I'd suggest that game at Fratton in a couple of weeks is shaping up to be a not very pretty relegation 6 pointer.

I thought we saw out the last 2 minutes of added time quite comfortably. Pity about the shambles that came before that. Seems like we're unable to defend balls into our box at all and I suspect opposition managers might have noticed.

New 'keeper made 3 good saves in that game. A bit crazy though but I put that down to jet lag.
