Saint Fan CaM

I don’t mind JT and AB ~ pretty balanced, although I sometimes wish for more commentary on the actual performance and less opinion of what’s right or wrong…that’s not really a commentators job during the game, but good in the break/after the final whistle.

A much needed win, but are we fully happy with that? Effectively ends 2-0 and at home to a very poor Sunderland. Don’t blame the players - all down to the Manager and his selection.

Sulemana screws up another golden chance.

Ref buying a faked smack in the face from Aribo who then gets booked. 7 minutes of extra time surely we can’t fuck this up can we?

Why does nearly every defender try to play keep ball in defence when a simple pass is on? Just don’t get it.

Rothwell again! Superb counter.

Brilliant strike from Rothwell. Trouble is we have to score 6 to win a game of football now.

What the hell is going on? 2-2 and we could easily lose this the way the subs have worked. All the responsibility of the Manager trying to keep his mates in place and playing our best CB out of position. Utter madness.

Ref helping them - two fouls ignored. We’re gonna fuck this up now. Sulemana and Manning together is a defensive calamity waiting to happen!

Sully and Aribo on for Saints. Smallbone and Brookes off.

To be fair and balanced, Manning made a good recovery then.

Would love us to be five up at 70 minutes and allow the youngsters to come on to express themselves.

The way things are going goal difference could really make the difference between the teams chasing the auto spots. Must do better in front of goal and completely smash Sunderland.

I want at least five goals at least out of the team today and none conceded - we deserve it against this team.

Pen for Saints - here we go.

Oh FFS Manning - leaving us exposed once again. Jeez he really is a useless defender. Not. A. Clue!

Baz gifting them possession on many occasions - thank goodness they look totally inept at taking advantage.

Just watch Manning in defence - he gets nowhere near his man and then chases the ball like a school kid placing him self out of position.

Get in Stuey!!!

Oh FFS…Stephens as CB. WTF?

You can’t be a long time supporter. Many of us longer standing fans know this was the intended site of the monkey-chicken petting zoo.

Bugger. First time for ages I’ve got tickets and able to go. Oh well…an omen from the fabled witch perhaps? 🤔😉

It’ll be OK…Manning will exhibit braveness of the highest order, so we’ll be golden!

Another huge game. Very difficult to gain momentum and eat into the points to lift us into 2nd. Must sort out the defensive shambles we’ve witnessed, starting with dropping Manning to the bench unless KWP is still out. Preston are on a roll and have done well in their press which will suit them well against us. Tough game…2-2.

Massive win. Deserved by the midfield and attack. Defence could be blamed, but my angst is directed towards Martin who has once again shoehorned his mates in and left common sense at home. 🙄
