Wild one are you disagreeing with me or agreeing with me, can’t quite tell? Regardless I remain firmly unconvinced about Adams. I really want him to be good, but thus far in a Saints shirt he......ain’t.

A sort of ok ish performance today. Held it up and laid it off ok a couple of times. Still not convinced whatsoever about him and we looked better when he came off.

Boufal did alright imho, Adams not so much

For the first time EVER in my life I wen't to the bog during a Saints match and came back out to discover the score had got better and not worse for us, and I stand as a man with a serious weak bladder condition. Not seen our goal therefore, but evidently it was due to some sort of Palace howler. Regardless, I thought a draw was a fair result from that, and I am actually very happy with it.

Without wishing to be too bah humbug after such a great day, I've seen nothing today to change my opinion that he ain't up to it at this level as things stand. Doesn't mean he can't ever be but jury well and truly out with me. Yes he held the ball up and didn't lose it on occasions but sadly he did the complete opposite on others, and lost it when it was far easier not to have done. I also think he doesn't show enough willingness to bust a gut and get into the box to sniff out a one touch finish close in. He should have been putting that Redmond cross away imho and there was a moment in the first half when JWP pinged in a low cross, he may well not have got there but he didn't even move towards the ball.

Well GTFI and FMOB. That was a fecking superb performance from start to finish. Well done the lads and Merry Xmas all.

Gotta say he looks ****in well out of his depth in what has otherwise been an excellent performance.

Well said. Merry Christmas!!!

Good question. Why did he do that? WHY? Can we all just stick to rumours please, this site ain’t big enough to accommodate suggestions.

Agree, that was such a pure, clean strike. A man right on top of his game, his remaining injury free is key to our survival chances.

No more than a yellow. Have some ****ing common sense ffs. Yeah he kicked out but nothing malicious, heat of the moment stuff is going to happen in the heat of the moment.

Gazzaniga, what a **** keeper.

I don't think Watford will go down.

Played well today but I will be (happily) stunned if he ever plays for England!

Agreed. He's a superb little goal poacher. We'd be ****ed without him.

Hmmm, ashamed of yourselves you should be I tells ya!

Well played lads didn't think they had it in them. First time we've scored 3 all season, Stephens was outstanding. Clearly a player in there after all. We'd clearly be ****ed without Ings but then you could say that about most teams with their main scorer taken away. I don't like this team whatsoever but they might just have enough to survive again.

Good performance, that's the best I've ever seen Stephens play. I don't trust this lot one little bit not to **** this up though.

I'd say about 4 before the question becomes irrelevant and the turd is flushed before anyone bothers retrieving it from the bog to try and polish it again.

We obviously were/are hopelessly crap. No team who fields Bednarek and Stevens as it's go to cb combo deserves or is likely to survive in this league. However I would point to the parallels between this match and last week's against Newcastle. Away team miles better and should have been at least 2 goals up in both until home team finally woke up for last 20 mins or so and created some chances. Newcastle took theirs, we didn't but Ings was very unlucky not to score 2. (offside one when he hit the post was not offside and would have been allowed by VAR).

Nailed on for Minister of Silly Walks.

What a fecking joke that is after the last 3 and a half seasons of relentless shyte. Book soon to guarantee disappointment.

The future ain't quite so bright I gotta wear shades but it would have been a darn site bleaker had we not won those 2 matches. We're firmly in the mix for survival and performance standards have taken a significant upturn. Still FURIOUS we lost that today though.

It should have been a freekick. I do get the Vitriol towards Cedric. What exactly is he good at?

Infuriating result. Thought Newcastle were ****.
