Glasgow_Saint

Thats been the frustration with Saints this season - so many winnable games, but we have underperformed and now left a mountain to climb. For example: We were comprehensively beaten by Colchester, since then the U's have benn beaten 5-0 & 7-0

Start of the season! We had a 10 page thread on the subject....amazingly even before the season had started folk (pi ss weak quitters) had written off our chances with nonsense like "Ill be happy to stay up"

Sadly this forum is riddled with 'we are Saints therefore we expect and want nothing' pi ss weak quitters sums em up perfectly! Nice post

AP made clear what the intentions were "TOP 2" and now they are "PLAYOFFS" he's never and will never talk about mid table or consolidation and id be amazed if he mentions the -10 if we fail to achieve the achievable. The -10 was a set back but not the great wall of china some would like us to believe. Four games back we were 8 points from the PO so anyone that thinks making the playoffs was impossible is a fool. Thank god AP has more ambition/desire and confidence in his players than "Im happy with anything" posters on here.

AP has made numerous comments regarding our ambitions this year/season! In pre-season he said the aim was top 2 THIS SEASON, he and I thought that with some investment (he's got more than expected) that top 2 was achievable! (It was, but not now) After the poor start he changed his ambitions to "Playoffs is now the aim THIS SEASON" and he's repeated this ambition many times since - as recent as pre Millwall. The only people that have ever been satisfied with 'consolidation' and mid table are those on here that have been badly affected by our past few seasons - they (& they alone) now see 2nd best as success. Thankfully AP is more ambitious (in his words at least) You dont outspend EVERY team in L1 + 90% of CCC teams + some prem sides just to sit in mid table of L1. TOP 2 was the target, now its the playoffs! If we don't improve our form AP will need to amend his target for the 3rd time this season.

I read through the post match thread and couldnt see any comments that could justify this thread!? Unless you're refering to the name calling and insults that the happy clappers rely on to respond to posts they cant defend or just dont understand? Weird thread - my advice..... DONT MOAN ABOUT THE MOANERS, COZ IF U MOAN THEN THE MOANERS WILL MOAN MORE, CAUSING THE GUYS WHO MOAN ABOUT THE MOANERS 2 MOAN, WHICH WILL INCREASE THE MOANERS MOANING, LEAVING MOANERS AND NON MOANERS MOANING

Its not what he said but they way he said it!! Jesus - man up!

Has our multi million pound team beaten a team in the top 8 yet? Genuine question....

Lots of questions about todays formation, selection, tactics and use of subs. Just be careful as if you ask questions the happy clappers will call you nasty names.

Some on here strike me as being the type of parent that has an unhealthy fat child, but is happy because the child seems happy!

I wonder if we can buy Paul Lambert from Norwich?

AP seemed to change our away tactics at the Leeds game. We now seem uber defensive for away games and it just aint working. Hopefully AP will reflect on this tonight and change things to keep our fading PO hopes alive.

Yep +1

Good to see that the 'happy clappers' resort to insults when they lose an arguement! Somethings never change!

Give AP back the points if it helps you justify things. Facts remain - even with the 10 points back we are still not in the Playoffs. For a team that has outspent EVERY team in L1 + 90% in CCC + some prem sides that is very very very poor!

Wont happen if we go to games to draw (like we did today)

Nope 5 points! HTH

He will get this season as a "free" but think a poor start next season and he will be gone. Xmas next year and we will be looking for our next messiah Can only make excuses for so long!

Yep and we havent got enough! Million spent and we are 5 points off the bottom 4! We are further behind the PO teams than we were at the start.

I think its only a matter of time! Im rarely wrong

The Millwall team that outplayed us today cost 780k (One player cost 500k). Questions will need to be asked soon.

15 points off the playoffs if Swindon and Huddersfiled win game in hand. Shame we didnt spot Lamberts (Norwich manager) potential in the summer!!!

Shows how far we have come Draw 1-1 after no pre-season bla bla bla 25 games later (millions spent) Draw 1-1! Lucky to draw too The last minute drama will smoke screen another poor performence. Last 4 league games = LWLD Thats poor

Gutted - NEVER deserved the win, but............... That one hurts
