I was hoping that Saints might at least have managed to squeeze a point from those first 3 games but it looks like Russball has been well and truly sussed by everyone else in the league. Just can't see where a win is going to come from if Saints continue with this slow suicidal walking football.

Saints score!! Good move. Pity it wasn't 3-0 at the time.

Giving the ball away after a few backward passes right until the end.

Not even close.

Dibling seems to be ignoring RM's instructions by looking to get forward and trying to score.

Every time Brentford attack they do so with pace and look dangerous almost every time. Saints slow and predictable.

Odds shortening on RM getting the sack.

Long throw lumped into the box. 3-0.

Another suicidal piece of defending. This cannot go on.

Brentford so much quicker around the final third. Saints attack at walking pace.

THB has looked awful this season. Looks like any talent has been coached out of him.

Saints give it away in their own half again. Bretford header. Saved.

Brentford cut through Saints yet again.

Saints have had 62% possession, mostly in walking around slowly in their own half. RM will be delighted no doubt.

Opponents will be looking forward to RM's Saints gifting them 3 points. This slow walking backwards football deep in our own half is being easily countered and not helped by occasional easy chances up front being squandered.

Armstrong shows us that he has caught the Adams disease. How can a professional forward miss from there?

Will you please stop fannying around with the bloody thing. 1 down.

KWP having a 'mare as well.

Armstrong looked like he was clipped. Good chance goes begging.

Poor header? Was it Stephens?

Walking football going backwards, Brentford nick the ball and miss again.

Nice to have a 'keeper who saves shots.

Brentford always looking for a forward pass. Saints first thought is to go backwards.

THB a bit off the boil so far this season.

Not the time to be fannying around like that.
