Jonnyboy Posted 18 January, 2014 Posted 18 January, 2014 Ref was shocking today. Even if we won id have said that. Ramirez was fouled at least twice prior to his injury tackle and the ref did nothing. And that final tackle was brutal. He got the ball after going through the player. In my view the ref bottled a lot of decisions today. The standard of refs in the PL is getting worse and worse. The linesman however seem to be getting better. Thats what happens when you employ jack from hollyoaks as ref:
Convict Colony Posted 18 January, 2014 Posted 18 January, 2014 Loan system in the Pl just creates a false sense of self, look at everton have so many loans its stupid and its these loans doing the business.
a1ex2001 Posted 18 January, 2014 Posted 18 January, 2014 Good performance, unlucky not to thrash them. Decent result, most would have taken before kick off. Over reactions due to injuries and crap week. Move on nothing to see here.
Viking Warrior Posted 18 January, 2014 Posted 18 January, 2014 Out of interest was KL at the game today? Sorry if I missed it in the build up thread
Georgie Posted 18 January, 2014 Posted 18 January, 2014 Oh well could be worse. Could be one point off being a step closer to non-league and losing at home to Mansfield.
lickierambert Posted 18 January, 2014 Posted 18 January, 2014 I feel like we've got back the Saints I recognise and love this week-infighting and surrendering leads. Love it! Could be worse, could be losing at home to Mansfield! Bring on Yeovil
Georgie Posted 18 January, 2014 Posted 18 January, 2014 Loan system in the Pl just creates a false sense of self, look at everton have so many loans its stupid and its these loans doing the business. Really think the loan system needs an overhaul. PL clubs shouldn't be able to loan to other PL clubs. Having said that we may now need to strengthen with these injuries and I could only see us getting loans in considering our long term future is unknown.
trousers Posted 18 January, 2014 Posted 18 January, 2014 Out of interest was KL at the game today? Sorry if I missed it in the build up thread Not sure, but I doubt it. I'm sure BT Sport would have picked her out of she was there.
ottery st mary Posted 18 January, 2014 Posted 18 January, 2014 What a sensation this new signing...Corky ...has turned out..
trousers Posted 18 January, 2014 Posted 18 January, 2014 @jordansibley: An update on MP's post match comments: @DejanLovren05 hasn't gone to hospital, however @gasramirez10 has & is waiting for an x-ray #saintsfc
Chap in the Chapel Posted 18 January, 2014 Posted 18 January, 2014 Lovren didn't go to hospital. This could be good news, http://www.dailyecho.co.uk/sport/saints/news/10947444.Lovren_and_Ramirez_taken_to_hospital/?ref=rss&utm_source=dlvr.it&utm_medium=twitter
THEVMAN Posted 18 January, 2014 Posted 18 January, 2014 Only info I have is Gaston is away to hospital but Lovren isn't as bad look into that as you wish
ottery st mary Posted 18 January, 2014 Posted 18 January, 2014 Let us hope for the best for both Lovren and Ramirez:) Who is that wonder kid....called Puncheon..soaring for the Palace:rolleyes:
ALWAYS_SFC Posted 18 January, 2014 Posted 18 January, 2014 (edited) Only info I have is Gaston is away to hospital but Lovren isn't as bad look into that as you wish Cheers Navman, will keep hopes up that he`s ok for next league match and Gaston is ok too Edited 18 January, 2014 by ALWAYS_SFC
Saint_Tony Posted 18 January, 2014 Posted 18 January, 2014 It's not being disrespectful to Sunderland, or arrogant of us, to say we should have won. We dominated them, and should have put the result to bed in the first half, or in the first 10 minutes of the second half. If Lovren's out for a while, that's the season over for us I'm afraid as it looks unlikely we'll bring in a replacement. And as for those saying Osvaldo is back, what the **** has he done other than that goal against Man City?. lastly, who is going to own up to mentioning Altidore as a good signing in the summer? I laughed at it then, but today he proved beyond all doubt how bad he is.
Northant Saint Posted 18 January, 2014 Posted 18 January, 2014 Cheers Navman, will keep hopes up that he`s ok for next league match and Gaston is ok too Judging by the images of Gaston's tackle it looks like he will be out for a long time unfortunately. Hope I'm wrong.
Badger Posted 18 January, 2014 Posted 18 January, 2014 Out of interest was KL at the game today? Sorry if I missed it in the build up thread I think I read on here though that NC did not always travel to away games so I don't think too much should be read in to this.
Viking Warrior Posted 18 January, 2014 Posted 18 January, 2014 I think Garston will be out for at least 6 weeks assuming it is a ligament inversion injury
Viking Warrior Posted 18 January, 2014 Posted 18 January, 2014 At least we have a two week break before the next league game
Lets B Avenue Posted 18 January, 2014 Posted 18 January, 2014 lastly, who is going to own up to mentioning Altidore as a good signing in the summer? I laughed at it then, but today he proved beyond all doubt how bad he is. I thought he was better today than at SMS in august. That's how sh ite he was then.
Mowgli Posted 18 January, 2014 Posted 18 January, 2014 With all the money and politics spoiling the game this was a joy to watch. A great start by saints who really could and perhaps should have been 3 or 4 ahead before Sunderland had their first shot on goal. But what I really love about this game is how a freak goal threw the whole thing up in the air. After a while saints restored the order with great possession but still failed to make the most of possession. Full credit to Sunderland who hauled themselves back in the game not just against us but against their own fickle fans. The result was fair in the end and you've got to be relieved with a point against one of our bogey teams. More concerned about lovren and gaston than about the points dropped to be honest.
DuncanRG Posted 18 January, 2014 Posted 18 January, 2014 Why do people keep saying that our season is over because of a result or an injury? What does that mean? What would 'our season' be if Lovren hadn't got injured today? We're in a healthy position - could climb, could drop. We're still in the cup, and we'll be fighting until the last game to finish as high as we can, same as every team. You'd think supporting a team that traditionally floats in midtable would teach people to make the most of every game.
Olallana Posted 18 January, 2014 Posted 18 January, 2014 At least we have a two week break before the next league game 10 days....play Arsenal 28th
Viking Warrior Posted 18 January, 2014 Posted 18 January, 2014 Oh **** I forgot about the mid week game
Saint_Tony Posted 18 January, 2014 Posted 18 January, 2014 Why do people keep saying that our season is over because of a result or an injury? What does that mean?

You'd think supporting a team that traditionally floats in midtable would teach people to make the most of every game. Personally, I can't see us catching the teams above us, or falling down any places. Our defence without Lovren is a whole different proposition. However It does sound like it might not be as bad as first feared. I just hope we go all out to win the FA Cup, starting with a convincing win next week against Yeovil
S-Clarke Posted 18 January, 2014 Posted 18 January, 2014 Good news regarding Lovren, let's hope those shin pads did their job..!
Batman Posted 18 January, 2014 Posted 18 January, 2014 shame about ramirez. looked good again when he came on
ART Posted 18 January, 2014 Posted 18 January, 2014 Wanyama can indeed play centre back, did often enough for Celtic but how he'd do at it in the rarefied atmosphere of the PL who knows. Jack Cork also played as a centre back so this may enable both Wanyama and Cork to play an interchanging game and both be included in the lineup
teamsaint Posted 18 January, 2014 Posted 18 January, 2014 plenty of teams would have caved in after the equaliser and losing 2 players at the same. Something saved from "one of those days", so credit to the players for staying srtong and calm.
Viking Warrior Posted 18 January, 2014 Posted 18 January, 2014 I'm very proud of the team today . A good result considering all the events thus week and today . Ps moorlands special is not a bad pint for all you real ale slurpers
beatlesaint Posted 18 January, 2014 Posted 18 January, 2014 We are on a little island called 9th.........would have taken that beginning of the season so happy ifwe stay there or catch Newcastle maybe.
Patrick Bateman Posted 18 January, 2014 Posted 18 January, 2014 shame about ramirez. looked good again when he came on That, he did - looked full of confidence too and you can almost bet in another world, that had he hit it before being crippled, it would have been a screamer of a goal.
badgerx16 Posted 18 January, 2014 Posted 18 January, 2014 Really think the loan system needs an overhaul. PL clubs shouldn't be able to loan to other PL clubs. Having said that we may now need to strengthen with these injuries and I could only see us getting loans in considering our long term future is unknown. Our long term future is in the Premier League - maybe with a different owner but I can't see why the possibility of a change 'up top' would cause uncertainty for players considering signing for us.

Solid Saint Posted 18 January, 2014 Posted 18 January, 2014 shame about ramirez. looked good again when he came on Agreed. I was looking forward to what might well have been a goal of the season contender when he was assaulted from behind. I can honestly say I hate Brown. Seen way too many of those tackles from him over the years. Nice work from the ref once again, missed the GBH whilst right under his nose.
Viking Warrior Posted 18 January, 2014 Posted 18 January, 2014 You never know windows . But the future is still very bright . Even Nc would have put in a good word about us where it counts .
a1ex2001 Posted 18 January, 2014 Posted 18 January, 2014 i really don't think there'll be any money for transfers this window...none whatsoever, not even loan fees. Based on? Seriously wish everyone would just wait and see even if KL wants to sell she will know a healthy premier league side will fetch more cash if we desperately need a player I see no reason she wouldn't spend again as she has done consistently since inheriting the club.
BlakeySFC Posted 18 January, 2014 Posted 18 January, 2014 Lovren out for 3 weeks, Ramirez out for the season.
Badger Posted 18 January, 2014 Posted 18 January, 2014 Lovren out for 3 weeks, Ramirez out for the season. speculation or announced ?
Lallana's Left Peg Posted 18 January, 2014 Posted 18 January, 2014 Just back from the game. First half we were great, really disappointed to concede to be honest as I felt like had we gone in at 2-0 and seen out the 10min storm that would have come at the start of the second half that Sunderland would have been broken and we could have managed the game properly to win. Second half was messy - Sunderland pressed us a little higher up the pitch and we lost some of our composure. It was also disappointing to lose the ball in some important areas when we had men forward which allowed Sunderland to attack dangerously. I know that is the game we play but the players often realise when it is critical to keep the ball and in the second half a few of them passed without conviction at times which also got their crowd up and changed the momentum of the game. However, in terms of the bigger picture I am happy with a point away from home and the way the team played for the most part at the end of a potentially distracting week. Ramirez looked very smart when he came on and I hope his injury is not as serious as it sounds. Lovren's sounds better than expected as well so that is a relief. It's been a unique week but overall I think the team (and staff) can hold their heads up high after that.
sfc4prem Posted 18 January, 2014 Posted 18 January, 2014 Lovren out for 3 weeks, Ramirez out for the season. You're such a mug
teacher Posted 18 January, 2014 Posted 18 January, 2014 Lovren out for 3 weeks, Ramirez out for the season. Speculation or fact or looking for attention?
ottery st mary Posted 18 January, 2014 Posted 18 January, 2014 Both Lovren and Ramirez on way back with their team mates.
Ohio Saint Posted 18 January, 2014 Posted 18 January, 2014 Latest news. Lovren and Gaston both need attention, but not nearly as much as some of the posters on this forum.
aintforever Posted 18 January, 2014 Posted 18 January, 2014 That we 2 points thrown away, great performance first half but should have put the game to bed then. Good to see that Cortese leaving appears to have had absolutely zero effect on the players who looked up for it and played some great stuff.
Badger Posted 18 January, 2014 Posted 18 January, 2014 Both Lovren and Ramirez on way back with their team mates. Good news. In the good old days though, after a long coach trip back from the north east, I expect McGrath, Gabriel or Fisher would be first off the coach, and last propping the bar up when they got back,serious leg injury or not.
Ohio Saint Posted 18 January, 2014 Posted 18 January, 2014 Good news. In the good old days though, after a long coach trip back from the north east, I expect McGrath, Gabriel or Fisher would be first off the coach, and last propping the bar up when they got back,serious leg injury or not. There is a great deal about those days that I miss..........And a great deal that I don't. Could you imagine if today's knowledge and attitude were applied to Saints in the 70's while all the other teams were also still pubbing and clubbing? We would be Barcelona now, not just Barca wannabes!
Saint Fan CaM Posted 18 January, 2014 Posted 18 January, 2014 I hate Brown - absolutely terrible player and how he didn't walk for what was a cynical two-footed, studs up, through the ball to player challenge, I really don't know. It looked to me as if Lovren's injury could be his Achilles gone when he extended his leg - not good? Hope Boruc has not gone and injured himself too. Two weeks will be a good rest opportunity with Kelv in goal for Yeovil. Lambert - incredibly - was for me the worst Saints player in the pitch by a long chalk - just hardly made an impact. J-Rod as a striker is hot'n'cold - one minute a fantastic goal, next a string of awful misses when it's on a plate. Onwards and upwards - the good news is we're not being challenged yet for the ninth slot. We do need some fresh blood in the camp though, although Wanyama and Osvaldo will be like two new signings I guess.
VectisSaint Posted 18 January, 2014 Posted 18 January, 2014 We are on a little island called 9th.........would have taken that beginning of the season so happy ifwe stay there or catch Newcastle maybe. We were 8th today until Sunderland equalised. Newcastle only had to play Wet Sham so easy 3 points for them today, of course they are catchable.
