Saints just seem to panic when getting in the attacking third. There seems to be little idea what to do even when in good positions. Archer misses a sitter.

Downes determined to get sent off and I can't say I blame him.

KWP seemed determined to get a yellow card.

Well that was certainly coming for quite a while. Defending appalling.

Dibling getting some rough treatment.

Brighton hit the post. No closing down. Can't be long now.

Downes with a yellow already. 🤨

Good cross from Manning. Nobody there to tap it home.

Saints robbed in their own defensive 3rd again. Brighton miss again.

Total f up from Saints corner. Hopefully Brighton keep missing.

Normal defensive service resumed but not punished this time.

Good start from Saints. Got them on the ropes. 😋

O'Riley odds on to score.

Does anyone know what the expected outcome would be at the end of this supposed 10 year plan? If not then I suspect it's cobblers and that there's really not much of a plan for the team at all.

The faulty AI bot still hasn't been fixed then. I think it's suggesting that Saints should invent a new game other than football so that it can sometimes win. Or something. Back in the day it would be like taking the ball home I guess.

Is this the output of some sort of AI bot that needs reprogramming?

You must have been disappointed to see that Leeds shot hit the crossbar and stay out in the play off final. If only it had gone in and Leeds won in extra time. 🙃 The club would no doubt be flying this season. 🤪 Sorry but I have to disagree. The best time to get promoted is at the first attempt. Any more than that and you're in danger of becoming just another Championship team scrabbling to make the play offs.

Best argument I've seen yet for sacking Martin now.

That's an argument for ditching the current regime isn't it?

Perhaps he's getting better service.

All Martin's teams concede bucket loads of goals. His Saints team last season did and this one does too. There's a bit of a theme and in this league it's almost impossible to score enough to compensate for his leaky RussBall. As we saw yesterday there are players in the Saints squad who could make a decent fist of staying in the EPL, just so long as they weren't required to play suicide football by the crazy manager. It's time to show him the door and at least give the rest of the season a go.

Yet another lead thrown away. The players look much better than the manager that is holding them back.

I guess a brave defeat will yet again save Martin's job.

Put the free kick in the box for a change Saints.

2-3 and Saints pass it around the back. Give it away. Liverpool corner. That there is Russball and it's dumb.
