Waigo is plainly not ready for the first team yet and will probably be replaced by Antonio anyway as first choice. If Connoly was to start then it is one of Hammond or as today Wotton who would have to go and I don't think many people would disagree with Wotton stepping aside.......

Simply MOTM sign him up!

Great result. Antonio was the difference once he came on. Think Papa has a lot to learn about the game before he can be selected as a first choice player - a poor mans Dyer in the first half plus caught offside by yards too often. I would fully endorse previous comments that Antonio is well considering as a permanent buy and was my man of the match. I know it's a great result again but in particular the first half long ball game was a poor strategy. Our team is far better than this tactic shows us to be - please can we keep it on the floor more......We are good enough to do this......

Liverpool - Alan Pardew...............come on, that's very funny indeed.....

Ron Davies - just the greatest. I will carry memories of watching the great Ron from the boys chocolate box with me for ever.....Our thoughts are with you Ron.

Retain your sense of humor and read the thread - it's a spoof - oh never mind!!

That's a blinder - I liked Lowe too errrrr until he sacked Pearson but he's still a lovely man..............

Oh yes nice one.............but can't bring myself to tonight as the garden is soooooooo rosy!!!!

Call me shallow and agest but........oh, go on then! Must be under 20 stone though!

I don't love you - and never will - unless 25 ish blond and Swedish! And female!

Nice one Mongo. Obviously very knowledgeable about football and Saints. AP hasn't signed one decent player...... ooooooww !!!

This just goes to show this team are world beaters!

This is deadly. We win a couple of games and the strong opinions disappear. Can someone please be controversial. I suppose if we loose tomorrow things will get pretty hot again but if we win! By Tuesday it will be like a mortuary on here...... I'm going to make a start...... If Connely plays where the hell does AL fit in? It's a bit like Rooney for England. He's a dam good player but we often struggle as a team when he plays. If we go 442 again that's only two to look after when we attack but with two breaking midfielders there are three to look after. That's not very controversial on reflection - well I tried. Bring back Pearson - at any price we would be top of the league by now with him in charge - any better????

Oh excellent comment - Taste of own medicine comes to mind - shame.....lol

Christ there are times when you have to say my face doesn't fit here. He was very decent for us last year and would be again if given half the chances useless Wotton has been given! Yes, Yes I know, Wotton has had at least one good game for us but does that make a summer? I like Gillet pitty he's off but that's life. He was probably a victime of the fact that we had a lot of short players and that just had to change. We probably lost many games before they even started last year - in the tunnel, with so many titchies stood beside all the giants you come across in football these days the psychological disadvantage would be significant.....

Forecast is bright? I heard he was suspect - is he playing ?

Yes agree

That was hilarious. Well done to the guy - good to see from the opposing fan point of view and quite well developed. Don't we have someone who could do the same?

Yeh Wottons vision for the long pass is just awesome - would of thought one one the big boys will be in for him in January........ooowwwww should we cash in?

This is by far the funniest post I've ever seen on here - Wotton and football brain ummmmm now that's put a big smile on my face......

Pardew is bitter about using the players that were already here when he came. Except Wotton - my God..........

Anyone who picks Wotton should be on a couch somewhere! Not managing Saints..

Derry, this is so very accurate but AP can't see it - it's been ten games now twelve with cup games and the tactic remains the same. ITS NOT WORKING NOR IS AP!

Yes yes yes but what if we get 9 points from every ten games or perhaps worse! What then?????????? AP has shown no tactical knowledge what so ever so far, he's virtually all his own players out there and no strategy in games at all!! Oh yes we one strategy - I do appologise - it's evidently to play very narrow with no width and no cover for the full backs! ITS NOT WORKING!!! No win Saturday and no sign of a tactical strategy and it's enough for me......This is a very expensive hand picked squad he should be doing better!

Only one answer to that - what did the Rovers side cost that beat us tonight !!!
