Ah it was today. Thought there’d be more chat about it. Great result 👏

Good crowd on a freezing night. 7500+ and a good atmosphere. My great nieces enjoyed it too, which is what it's all about out.

Just read 7,561 attendance, that's great and I know will be appreciated by the players , I think would have been quite a bit higher if Saints men weren't playing at almost the same time and on a warmer end of season fixture more families more likely to go, everyone loves seeing us beat the Skates 4-0. 

Still in with a shout of promotion but will need a very strong 2nd half of season

Just want to post that Saints Woman's Team beat the Pompey Women 4 - 0 yesterday, especially the exceptional goals by Jess Simpson and Aimee Palmer

Well done to them.

The men's Team could learn a thing or two from the Ladies, who sit 5th in the WSL2 now.

And kudos to their manager Simon Parker, who has got them playing exciting attacking football.

Remember his name.

 

The reason I say remember his name is that if Tonde dont buck up his ideas, SR will appoint Simon head coach of the Men's team come February in another "ooh look how trendy and with it we are, we don't need no established manager" action.

I was going to say that Saints looked fitter, stronger and more physical than Portsmouth and was going to ascribe it to them being professional, but checking just this instant I see that Portsmouth went pro at the beginning of the 24/5 season. Either way, it does give an example to the men that being fitter and stronger does have an impact on games..

Good to see a crowd only a hundred or so below that at Doncaster, and definitely worth playing that game at St. Mary's.

It was a good game. Portsmouth had a decent spell in the second half, so at 2 up Saints still had to focus. Brazil stood out. But plenty of decent players. Ferguson and McAlonie continue to look like good buys.

Another Mott shout out. Already knows where the pass is going, as she gets it. 

 Crowd sounded good too. It would be great to see that as a platform for every game.
