I agree but I can't see anyone listening. Just get written off as another whining manager.

VAR should be used to rule out the obvious bad decisions. Not make the call on every decision that is made. Great goal by Che ultimately.

After the last 2 disallowed goals, you have to wonder.

I cannot believe that has been disallowed. Seriously. What has happened to football?

No yellow for McTominay for the rugby tackle on Che?

I'd love it if we just scored a goal. Even if it's 10-1. Come on lads!!

Just injuries. More than any other team has. Being down to 10 hasn't helped. Neither has having 3 out and 1 in yesterday.

Yes, he doesn't looked bothered at all.

Exactly. The odd thing is that "Peter Walton" also agreed.

I think we'll be safe. We've got a good number of points already. But there is a lot of pressure on the next game against Newcastle. We simply must get at least a point there.

To be honest at this stage. They'd only need 4 more to make it 9. Ah.. Pen not given ?

Could they go for the record outright? 10 nil very possible.

A goal every 10 mins so far. So yes, very possible now. Only 35 mins gone.

12 against 10 out there then. Ref a joke.

Not much chance of that being checked!

And yet he started him tonight? I don't think it's something you can predict.

Honestly was he trying to get sent off? I think mentally he just wasn't ready for this. He's been thrown in our of necessity due to our poor transfer dealings. Should have been eased in. Embarassment of a team at the moment.

Utter stupidity. Arguably not ready for this level of game.

Bold faced confidence. I appreciate that but I'm afraid I am struggling to get on board with the idea that this is normal for any other Premier League side.

No panic. We "hope" players are coming back from injury so that's why we didn't sign any cover in January. Actually, that's why we weakened the squad (3 out, 1 in) No panic...... ! Today could go horribly wrong.

Minamino? Can he play full back? Maybe Ralph has a master plan for converting him...

Surely this will not happen. Ridiculous if so. Guess it'll be the youth team for the rest of the season. Which other premier league side would this happen to?

It'll be the usual classic saints window. We all sit here scratching our heads as this player and that go to our rivals. And with a few mins to go we'll announce some injured loan signing who ends up barely kicking a ball for us in the second half of the season

Hard to argue against that today. Clearly from the start this was set up for Villa to win. We've had 2 goals disallowed and 1 clear pen denied. Clear as day.

Looking like 3 defeats in a row and no goals in 7 games from open play. Back to the Saints we know and love..
