More likely to be points IMO.

Robertson for Euell after about 20 minutes and then whoever else is on the bench for BWP after another 10 minutes. Straight swaps.

Maybe, if there's some news before then....

Should certainly be an improvement.

http://www.saintsfc.co.uk/articles/article.php?page_id=11070 "For me it is very important that we are unbeaten for the rest of the month because then we will have done a good job". Good one.

Pearce on. Defensive reshuffle may be a tad late IMO.

Agree 100%. The sacking of Pearson will go down as Lowe's most stupid decision yet IMO.

YESSS!!! a corner

Although today we have Davis, Perry, Skacel and Euell in the team. BWP can't be regarded as a "kid" anymore and Surman has a few years league experience under his belt. It's more to do with the ridiculous shape and tactics IMO.

Would be a great move but I can't see him being interested.

Simple question. We are getting progressively worse and have been doing so, bar one or two exceptions, since the third match of the season. We are one dimensional, incapable of varying our tactics, flacid and uninspiring.

It's ok, Kuqi will tickle one of their defenders and score a goal.

I don't think we can afford to let him ruin that important match. New mananger in on Monday or Tuesday, home win on Saturday, start the season again.

R Lowe: "we probably go into the match as underdogs."

Seriously Lowe, do someting good this season - sack him now, don't appoint your other Dutch boyfriend, appoint a hairy arsed hoof-ball merchant.

Anyone think we'll play with two upfront at any point today? Maybe if we go 8 down we might give it a go.

JP out NOW.

I reckon Perry will score an own goal.

He provided a lollypop and tackle receipt on Monday night. I remember it well. Flashes of Bleidelis. It was superb.

I will push for martyrdom if that happens. It's just one of them things.

Yes, quite, was about to post the same thing myself. Anyone who thinks Lowe is only "tenuously" connected to what is happening on the pitch at the moment is a mentalist.

I reckon Man U will **** a brick when they see that lot lining up. Frankly, it's a distraction but it will be over quickly and hopefully we have won a couple of home games by then and are not in the bottom 3.

What about Robertson, Gasmi, Smith and Pulis?

What is annoying me is the "we'll adapt", "they're young, they'll improve" attitude put forward by some. Firstly, our performances, bar one or two exceptions, have been getting progressively worse. Secondly, the players are getting the stuffing knocked out of them and are being ruined - even the mananger admits half the squad can't be arsed and have pyschological problems FFS. This is exactly the complacent crap that got us sucked into a relegation battle last season. And don't start with the "we've got no choice, it's the banks" nonsense either.

I don't rate him and don't think there was any point in signing him particularly (although his goal against norwich may prove vital). However, whilst reserving the right to get frustrated and slag him off during games, my considered opinion post-event is that I will not judge him fully until I see him play upfront with a decent strike partner. Same goes for McGoldrick. Unfortunately, I doubt this will happen any time soon.
