silversaint Posted 19 October, 2008 Share Posted 19 October, 2008 What kind of performance will we get on Tuesday? The last game we played in Sheffied we got absolutely outclassed by a team at the bottom of league2. Will Jan have the nuts to make the changes needed to get us out of this mess? Do we really have any strength in depth to prepare us for what will be an extremely physical game? I really hope so but am starting to wonder. PS:Looking to get to the game on Tuesday night against Sheff Utd but does anyone know if you can buy tickets on the gate for away fans? i cant see my tickets arriving for Tuesday if I order them Monday?

Nexstar Posted 19 October, 2008 Share Posted 19 October, 2008 I think it will be a highly competitive game, 2-2. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

swesaint Posted 19 October, 2008 Share Posted 19 October, 2008 Probably a good time to play them since they play Wednesday today (0-1 down at the moment and Killgallon sent off). Having said that I can see Beattie getting a hat trick. Only player who might be able to handle him is Svensson. My predicition - lose 3-1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
the_general Posted 19 October, 2008 Share Posted 19 October, 2008 We'll get spanked. Jan will put out more pre teens in defence. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
benjii Posted 19 October, 2008 Share Posted 19 October, 2008 If we can manage not to concede any corners, fre kicks or throw-ins we have a chance. Oh - it would be nice if John and Skacel played too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

VectisSaint Posted 19 October, 2008 Share Posted 19 October, 2008 We'll get spanked. Jan will put out more pre teens in defence. Has Kirsty (?) signed yet? After her performance at half-time yesterday I think she would be an improvement, even with her broken arm, at least we might have a chance if we get a penalty. Just watching some of the Sheff derby on Sky makes me wonder how we could compete against either if they play like they did today. Beattie could completely muller our powder-puff defence, unless he gets a mysterious injury I think it could be an embarrassing night to be a Saints supporter again. The only good news is Kilgallon won't be playing. The bad news is Utd will be out to get back on course. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
exit2 Posted 19 October, 2008 Share Posted 19 October, 2008 Men against boys Im afraid. I watched SU v SW today and they are very physical. Gary Speed, James Beattie, Chris Morgan, Danny Webber to name just a few! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Griffo Posted 19 October, 2008 Share Posted 19 October, 2008 I'll be there in hope more than optimism. Hoping we can get some sort of half decent numbers and a decent amount of singing there with the low ticket prices Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thorpe-le-Saint Posted 19 October, 2008 Share Posted 19 October, 2008 I think we'll get destroyed, could be as much as 6-0 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Saint Martini Posted 19 October, 2008 Share Posted 19 October, 2008 Why would we definately be destroyed? We've gotten a results against Brum* so why not against Sheff Utd? Our results are totally unpredicatble and we are really a team that can win against anyone and lose against anyone. *I'm aware this was in the LC but we were't exactely murdered in the league match either.

Wes Tender Posted 19 October, 2008 Share Posted 19 October, 2008 We're going to get tonked by them. I would imagine that if we don't pick up anything from that match and nothing against Swansea, that if things are going badly against Coventry in our next home match, things are going to get very ugly in terms of crowd dissent and protests against the Board and manager.

badgerx16 Posted 19 October, 2008 Share Posted 19 October, 2008 Didn't score any today though did he? There is a world of difference between playing away at their city rivals and at home to our U-21s. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rocknrollman no2 Posted 19 October, 2008 Share Posted 19 October, 2008 Portaloo will play the same side on Tuesday and will probably say "This is their chance to move on from Saturdays close defeat and build on our growing confedence",or some other made up bull****e. Mc Goldrick will be the same lazy,uninterested waste of space as he always is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AndyNorthernSaints Posted 19 October, 2008 Share Posted 19 October, 2008 Hopefully same result as last season a 2-1 win when Thomas was man of the match. Wish he was back playing Tuesday. We also has Rasiak playing which helped. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

David Strover Posted 19 October, 2008 Share Posted 19 October, 2008 Did you see Morgan today? Can you imagine our powder-puff players having the brass balls to even get within ten feet of him with the ball? I reckon you'll see some brilliant fast passing on Tuesday as our babies try to get rid of the ball really quickly when the United Neanderthals bear down on them! As for Beattie he'll get at least two, after all Best and Blackstock have and Beattie is probably a better forward than either of them. Oh and we are really **** too.

sfcmick Posted 20 October, 2008 Share Posted 20 October, 2008 Can only see one result, just hope the score is not a total embarrassment . Optimistically a draw but it will have to be 0-0 as we have no chance of scoring even if we get more penalties. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trousers Posted 20 October, 2008 Share Posted 20 October, 2008 Sheff Utd v Southampton Venue: Bramall Lane Date: Tuesday, 21 October Kick-off: 1945 BST Coverage: Full commentary on BBC Radio Solent 96.1FM, and coverage on BBC Radio Sheffield. "Southampton welcome back midfielder Simon Gillett from injury. The 22-year-old is likely to go straight into the starting eleven. Loan winger Ryan Smith (hamstring) is out, while Morgan Schneiderlin will return in the reserves later this week." Southampton head-coach Jan Poortvliet told BBC Radio Solent: "We have to defend set pieces better. Sheffield United are a big, physical side, and they will punish us if we don't defend a lot better." "We need to show more character when things go wrong. If we go behind, it's a big problem." http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/football/eng_div_1/7671700.stm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What, a repeat of the mystery injury he picked up at the end of last season called "IDONTWANNAPUTMYOLDTEAMDOWN_ITIS". But its a real relief that with Sheff U being such a big physical side, JV has Gillett available. And I'm so glad to see we've not taken on yet another injury-prone player in Smith.
