When their 'keeper screws up the ball bobbles past the post. One of those days.

Bazunu saves!

I suspect that Holgate would welcome getting hauled off and substituted.

This is a joke.

Almost conceded from our kick off.

Fraser & Adams on.

Every team playing Saints simply will be given the instruction to shoot on sight. Virtually every shot on target is almost guaranteed to result in a goal. Has a team ever gone a whole season without managing even one clean sheet?

I thought Saints looked well up for it - for the first 30 seconds.

I suppose this is referred to as a wake up call.

Another long distance shot goes through the 'keeper. Just after Holgate gives it away.

Saints corners looking dangerous - for us.

Really need a goal back before half time. Not looking likely though.

Sunderland just strolling through Saints midfield. Dangerous free kick.

Saints not looking particularly dangerous, except in defence.

Should have had a penalty.

Plenty of time left. Trouble is it's only Sunderland that look like scoring. Should have been 3.

My fears are being realised. A 'keeper should save that.

Well that was an exciting first minute. Are we planning to defend at all?

That's another worrying pointer. 😬

Strong squad. Competition for places. Transfer window closed. Confidence high. So why am I half expecting a defeat? 😐

Nope. Just the usual gossip all day.

A win when not playing particularly well is the sort of thing that promotion contenders do.

Fraser hasn't been told about the slow, ponderous build up required yet by the look of it.

QPR just waltzing through Saints with ease.

Saints with more (ponderous) possession but with fewer shots.
