And there it is.

Still time for Saints to screw something up.

Get Smallbone off.

Almost every attack breaks down with a Saints player trying to run through an opponent. KWP is at least looking as though he wants to attack and score.

A shot on target from Saints!!

We can only hope that Forest keep missing sitters.

This dreadful from Saints. No attacking threat at all. Giving the ball away. Fannying about. Not even any points for artistic impression this week.

Don't really get all this happiness with a defeat against a team with 10 men for an hour where Saints totally dominated - because the performance was better than expected. 😐 Three points is three points at any stage of the season and Saints blew it because of long-known deficiencies with the GK and in attack. The Olympics is over and there's no extra points offered for artistic interpretation come the end of the season.

Newcastle handed a gift to Saints today. Inside was an easy 3 points but it was just thrown in the bin. Criminal performance.

Tall Paul would at least have been a throw of the dice.

Our attacking is laughable at times.

Saints sooooo predictable.

This walking football form of attack isn't very fruitful.

Saints with not much of an idea of what to do in the final third. All a bit desperate.

It'd be criminal to come away from this game without something.

Giving away free kicks so they can lump it into the box just isn't good tactics.

Joelinton stamps on Bedders from a great height.

Well at least Saints have decided to actually try and score against the 10 men. How it's not already 1-1 I don't know.

Totally in control of the game but shot-shy as usual and then we hand them a goal. It was predictable.

Saints have totally effed this up.

Had to happen. McCarthy passes to opposition in the pen area. They score.

Poor header. Need to show our superiority with a goal.

Hope that wasn't going in.

It's been a while. Have to admire those that keep the discussion going when nothing is happening though.

I'm expecting a lot of "Southampton nil" results this season based on that.
