Forest 3-2 Saints - Match Thread

[Chez]

Archer busy, and holding the ball up OK with a decent first touch. 

 

[tdmickey3]

Armstrong is utterly pathetic. 

 

[coalman]

Best 3 goals out of five?

[Disco Stu]

I've given these losers enough of my time today.

[Wade Garrett]

Flynn Downes is a fucking fraud of a footballer.  Does he ever pass the fucking ball forward?

We are utterly pathetic.

[OttawaSaint]

We have literally no one who can do what Hudson Odoi just did. 

[Saint NL]

Forum is performing worse than the team....

 

Downes nearly killed their player according to the commentators 😂

 

[Baird of the land]

Are saints ever going to learn about suicidally playing around with the ball on the edge of their own box

[Lee On Solent Saint]

This team is absolute shite, just nothing there. Waste of a fuckin season. The most uncompetitive team in the history of the PL.

And still not as bad as bednarek 😂

[St. Ciervo]

Downes just seems out of control always. Lucky to not get a straight red. That should have been his second yellow.

He is a guaranteed yellow each game, but rarely is it tactical or effective.

Weird time to make this comment when we've been completely on top since their goal. 

Give over mate. Juric has got zero points since his appointment. No improvement at all. 

[OttawaSaint]

JWP to come on and break free kick record...

should take a little blame for the goal...but Bednarek is a joke there. Woeful.

[obelisk]

Need an exorcism to get rid of the Martin fannying around at the back before giving the ball away influence.

If you're looking at full time scores, sure. 

[Saint NL]

Downes has been the biggest disappointment of a thoroughly disappointing season. 

[OttawaSaint]

This co comm acting all fucking superior because Forest are good now. Fuck off.

[HKsaint]

Will this forum be shut down again? Hope so.

Said in the summer we shouldn't be wasting so much of our transfer budget on him.

Aribo is fucking dreadful. What even is his "best" position. He looks shit everywhere.

Not just the goal, although he was culpable, more his all round play.

Doesn’t fancy it today.  Will get subbed or sent off.  Wanker.

although in fairness to him, it does bobble a fraction. Not the pass he wanted either. 

It starts with Downes, who seems to still be playing the same way as we did under RM.

You could delete Aribo there and say pretty much anyone apart from KWP or Fernandes.

[Mr X]

I can see an moderate improvement in our style and performances under Duric yet the same mistakes still happen and no improvement in results.... We won't make 11 points 

[washsaint]

Flynn Downes, a Premiership footballer my arse.  But then you could say that about pretty much every outfield player.

Joke squad and I'd rather see the U21s play than this shower of shite

Fuck off, a combination of Pep/Klopp/Slot and Ancelotti wouldn't even be able to turn this pathetic collection of losers into a competive team.

[Obstacle1]

Just too many championship players in this team unfortunately. Not just in their technical ability but so much naivety in how they play as well

Leave him alone, it’s not his fault

[Harry_SFC]

There needs to be huge changes in personnel next season. 

So many of these players just stink the place out.

Armstrong, Aribo should be the first to fuck off.

Don't hold back Dean 😂

Nott'm Forest 2-0 Southampton

Dean Ashton on Sky Sports News:

"This is truly pathetic defending from Southampton.

"It is pathetic to watch."

I mean... If the players capitulate, why shouldnt the website as well? 

[Monk]

Downes is slowly becoming my mortal enemy. I can’t believe there isn’t more analysis on some of his poor decision making (i.e the pass back to Bree before the second goal). 
 

I honestly hate this fucking group of players and the wanky coaching staff more than a rerun of Miranda on BBC Three.

There’s a reason West Ham didn’t rate him.. he’s championship at best. Lack of mobility and pace.  But in 45 years of supporting, the worst side we’ve had. We’ve had shite players before but at least we had battlers. Absolutely nothing positive.

[Suhari]

Dismal.

 

[Baird of the land]

Saints looked so lackadaisical in the build up to that goal

In particular why was kwp standing a mile off him.

3-0.

Clean up in comm booth...mop and bucket to comm booth.

[Toussaint]

Oh dear 

[Saint NL]

And another one.

All goals in the same corner

[BotleySaint]

I really can't believe how poor we are the back. 

Nobody marking anyone. Letting them run through unchallenged. 

Juric has made us a better passing team but defensively it's exactly the same. Needs to change the formation and approach.

This will be 5 or possibly more by full time.

[obelisk]

3-0. Simple football from Forest. Cross into the box to the big man to head in.

All stemmed from three Saints players running away from the ball in midfield.

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

All sorted before half time. Absolutely appalling, joke of a football team, really hope to see none of this lot currently on the pitch next season.

He scored 24 Championship goals last season and we will be in the Championship.

[Saint_clark]

Drop Bednarek and Bree, get Wood and ABK in next game. 

[Suhari]

That was shocking defending on the cross. Weak and feeble.

 

[redkeith]

That one is down to Aribo. He had 5 players to pass to to set us up on a break. Instead he gives it to them ang jogs back. Lazy, lazy ...nt
