Forest 3-2 Saints - Match Thread

[Saint Billy]

Two of the biggest fails this season and we put them up front FFS.

[Saint NL]

Look alike another game where we'll struggle to get 0.

Will we have a shot on target? 

[adrian lord]

Bad news re Dibling

[Obstacle1]

Thought both uguchukwu and Sulemana were good last game so surprised to see both on the bench. Hopefully sulemana comes on for adarma 

[SNSUN]

No KS and no Les, two of our better players recently. In Juric we trust?  

[Challenger]

The only unknowns are the method of the defeat and the timing of the Downes booking.

Surely make more sense to start sully and Paul . Both of them had close to motm performances since juric has been here:. Paul suddenly being out seems weird he’s been better then AA and archer

Anyone else contemplating about watching this or not?

[Andy Hill]

No - nil for us seems a certainty.

[John Boy Saint]

On the Echo FB - Alfie House commented that Sulemana is on the bench due to fatigue. You can’t deny he put in a shift Thursday against a background of very little full match conditioning.

Again, fitness issues due to RM’s “have another day off” regime

Yeah in a short space of time between these two games. Hopefully Sulemana will come on early in the second half. Huge blow that Tyler is out for four to six weeks 😔

No blame for the £24million professional footballer who can’t maintain his own fitness without a manager holding his hand? 

[Lighthouse]

Got an unexplained optimistic feel about this one. I'm going to say a backs to the wall 1-0 win, Archer to score. Yellows!

[gio1saints]

TBF this is quite a strong Championship team. Albeit it looks a bit toothless now Tyler is out. Certainly when compared to teams like Sheff Utd who are winning a lot in the league below without anything like our squad quality. 

The home match v Forest was one of the most baffling Saints matches i've ever seen - so it wont take much to improve on it - though we still have a lot of the same starters as that match - just three different - BBD, Ramsdale and Captain Jack not playing.

I hope we remember how sick inducing that performance was and actually show some passion. Got a feeling with our most skilful players not playing or bench we will show that passion by using more brawn on the pitch than is strictly necessary so watch out for cards, plenty yellow AND red my prediction.......but I don't care if we kick them off the park and end with 8 players as long as we win...COYY!

To be honest I’m past getting wound up by who’s in and who’s out now given it seems to make very little difference in any particular game and it’ll make no difference whatsoever in the season, we are down and we are finishing bottom. 

This.

The starting 11 is a moot fallacy at this point.

And also, there is absolutely NO CHANCE we are beating this Nottingham Forest team.

Zero. None.

Odd that Big Les and Sulemana aren’t playing after their performances on Thursday.

Glad Archer is getting his chance, not so enthusiastic about Downes and Armstrong though.

There is a reason we pay fitness coaches - if players could be relied upon to achieve elite fitness levels themselves no clubs would pay to employ fitness coaches. Plus there is the question of extra days off including Xmas Day.

Probably find it on TNT (previously BT Sport) if you've got that. Otherwise, it's finding a stream on soccerstreams.io that doesn't have some tart twiddling her fanny.

It's not, we're playing this slot purely for scheduling reasons after our Thursday night game. I'm not sure why you would want a stream without some tart twiddling her fanny, that's likely to be the highlight of the afternoon. In fact I may expand that box (the video box, not... nevermind) and watch it instead of the match.

It is, but he has been overused and over relied on. Maybe Ivan can get a tune from some of the other shirkers. Plus Archer is back in contention and Fraser has returned from his alien abduction.

[Convict Colony]

Am on a IPTV but the channel I have it on is Hub Premier 3 live

[northam soul]

Any links to a stream as I feel like watching an hour and a half of dog shit.

[Sarnia Cherie]

I am taking my teenage grandson to the cinema to watch A Real Pain which may be what the spectators will be feeling too.

How does anyone in their right mind decide to drop Suli and play Adam shite Armstrong?

[Saint_clark]

Any streams? 

[coalman]

The Oracle supercomputer gives Saints a 16% chance of winning today. Lol

[whelk]

Ref’s a cunt. Not based on this game he just is

[Saint NL]

Hahaha we got a free kick for a foul on Fernandes when he wasn't even touched 😂

[whelk]

Gibbs-white should have been carded for sything Fernandes. Replay makes it look worse

It's got to be purely in the name of trying something out. 

[Lighthouse]

United 1-0 down at home to Brighton after 5 mins. A real shame we couldn't hang on there, United could have been looking at 5 consecutive home league defeats.

[Saint NL]

Forest are happy to let us have the ball. Russell Martin would have loved this, good opportunity to get 90% possession

Okay, 2-1. Archer and a late TP off the bench.

[Saint NL]

1-0 game over

[Suhari]

Nuts.

When did we last score from outside the box?

[Lard]

Game over already. Same shite different day. 

[Saint_clark]

Game over.

[Toussaint]

Yay

[SouSaint]

CMs nowhere to be seen. A common occurance with this crap formation. 

[obelisk]

Forest stroll through Saints midfield from a throw-in, defence backs off, shot, 1-0. Dreadful defending.

[Sunglasses Ron]

Well fuckadoodledoo, we’re losing yet again.
