Yes the direction of the ball even changes when it hits the defenders foot. Strange hill for Saint Clark to die on, as it really couldn't be clearer. But never mind. Arma, what a player at this level. If he can take a step up to the PL at second attempt, should we get there, what a bonus that would be. Agree with the poster who mentioned his increased work rate and tracking back this year. Perhaps the captaincy inspired that? Or maybe decent management from Russ.

Ah ok I didn't know that cheers. Although pretty sure Manning started over Bree recently when Bree wasn't injured.

Can't stand watching Manning. We're so enjoyable to watch at the moment which makes it extra frustrating that we have such a weak link at left back. His passing is frighteningly bad. How is Bree not starting ahead of him?

Same thing happened to me. As well as being bombarded with ads I'm now limited to 3 posts per day which is a relief to all of us. I'll spend that fiver on scotch eggs instead.

Samuel, Samuel Edozie he fuckin' hates pompey Fixed it for ya.

After reading number 3, I'd say the answer to number 2 is you should walk. 😉 Sorry, just teasing. It's an easy enough walk though in all seriousness.

Agreed. Way above his level.

Quite the opposite. Everyone was really pissed off when they realised they were all matching/clashing.

Can't believe Bree lost his place. Shows that Martin will pick his mates ahead of players doing well.

Maybe it's an age thing. I really couldn't give a monkeys about that lot, most weeks I totally forget they exist and rarely check their results. Can't even bring myself to say that I hate them, all seems very silly. Probably the youngsters who can't stop singing about them, bit sad.

Wonder if those criticising the club for picking Martin over Mowbray after they beat us 5-0 would take him now?

Re: Manning. I certainly don't "hate" him but I think he's been awful this season. But I'm far from fuming to hear he played well, I'm delighted. Fans don't actually want our players to play badly, we want to win, play well, have success, so I don't understand your odd comment. Hopefully the introduction of Bree on the left and his decent performances have made Manning step his game up. Hope so, we need them both.

Well, I'm quite happy about the win personally.

Sides knew all about KWP in the summer yet a move didn’t materialise. He’ll be here until the summer at least. Along with Sulemana and Alcaraz.

Recently he’s been looking pretttyyyy pretttyyyyy pretty good.

First half and second polar opposites. Downes, THB and Alcaraz were superb first half. Everyone was really, some of the play from us was crackin’. Knew that if we didn’t get a second that they’d have a good chance second half. They were by far the better team in the 2nd but we stayed strong and they didn’t create too much. A nice difference to Saints teams of old. Holgate was excellent all game, and thought Charles played quite well when he came on. Sulemana had a bit of a quiet game I thought, and wish Alcaraz would Be a bit braver at times but can’t complain we are lucky to have him at this level. His pass to SA for our goal was class. Yay yep ooh yeah.

Probably will be around kick off time

It’s because we’re bloody brilliant.

He was a bit of a hero for us. Not quite so random.

Check out the fella behind the goal, left hand side who just dived forward onto the netting when we scored 😂

Not much to see really, any others?

You bastard, it was a very good day. 😉

Wow excellent, exactly what I’d have picked. So pleased Manning, Charles and Edozie aren’t playing.
