It's going to be wiped off isn't it?

Saints passing is poor at best.

Fernandes looks knackered.

Newcastle break quickly with millions of runners. Saints escape.

Bree actually beats his man and looks forward. Screws it up though.

That fanny around ghost of Martin still hangs across the team. Need an exorcist for sure.

Any opponent can guarantee that Saints will donate the ball to them. All they have to do is wait.

Oh well. Saints press carved open. 1-3.

Saints corners starting to look dangerous at last.

Game underway. Tall Paul gets kicked but no yellow card for some reason.

I take it as a plus that Saints didn't totally capitulate. Some fight there but I want to see more balls played into the penalty area once we reach the attacking third.

Why not cross into the box when in wide attacking areas?

So simple to play through Saints midfield and defence. 1-2.

This is normally where Saints heads drop.

Penalty I reckon.

Having Tall Paul lurking up front allowed Bedders to have some free space.

Bedders!

Onuachu putting himself about.

Another opponent that just looks a lot fitter

One way traffic.

Marginally more atrocious than Armstrong who at least got in a position to miss his kick from about two yards

Will be lucky to grab a point today.

The ghost of Russell Martin still hangs over Saints defence which is far too quick to resort to backing off and fannying around. Anyone know a suitable exorcist?

If Bedders header had gone in might Saints have got a 4th? Took too long to get enough crosses in at the end though.
