If Tella scores that late chance then we'd be pretty happy with that last 80 minutes.

If Saints can stop giving the ball away to fast counter attackers then they'll walk the league.

Stupid error in midfield kills us again.

If only Adams ....

Defence just didn't look comfortable under pressure at the start. Probably lack of confidence but looked better as the game wore on. Good header from a free kick to get back into it.

Seconds left just put it in the box FFS.

Good free kick. Good header. Back in it.

If the plan is to put people off eyeing up Alcarez then so far it's working to perfection.

Adams misses.

Is Onuachu available tonight?

This is suicidal stuff.

Whatever system you play, giving the ball away cheaply in midfield will put you under pressure. 0-1.

The high press can be beaten with the occasional long ball.

JWP not involved tonight it would seem.

Last year we only needed to finish above 18th. This time we're looking to be top 6 minimum. Aren't we?

Looks a tough league doesn't it.

MLT a pretty good footballer but off his trolley on other matters.

Saints employing a rugby chap? How'd that go last time?

Sully centre of the shop window.

Virgin Media doing their bit to keep me from watching this by coming up with a yo-yo internet connection. Probably for the best.

I did wonder whether Theo might have been able to offer Saints something for one more season but not to be then. Couldn't fault his effort this season, something that was markedly different to others that I could mention.

The question I'm asking myself is whether Jones could have really done any worse than Selles. When I hear that JWP says he rather enjoyed the season I wonder whether the hard-nosed Welshman might have been shown the door because he was getting a bit fed up with the players' losing mentality.

At last the day has arrived. The day that we can finally lay this mess of a season in its grave. 💀 Then time to move on to the resurrection and the coming of our saviour? Let us pray. 😇 Enjoy the day, if you can.

😄

Second half capitulation ... very Saints-like.
