£20m doesn’t get you much these days

£10m gets you Milenkovic at Forest

£12m gets you Murillo at Forest

£15m gets you Huijsen at Bournemouth

£15m gets you Bassey at Fulham

Do I need to go on?

Of course all those signings would require actual scouting, so you can count us out

[Saint Fan CaM]

And again CB’s not learning a lesson…completely exposed. What’s the point of three at the back with that level of cover?

[BotleySaint]

The goals we do concede are just schoolboy stuff every time. Juric has had some time to sort that out but can't see the obvious it seems. 

[Viking Saint]

3 CBs and still sliced wide open straight down the middle

[Roger]

Guys has no one got a good stream as can’t get anything?

[Jack]

Absolutely no thought going into what happens when we inevitably give it away in midfield. Scandalous 

[stknowle]

Unless we do it in the last second of injury time I simply cannot get enthused by us taking a lead this season. It’s virtually irrelevant.

Gets you a Liam Delap

To be honest I would be happy to sell THB and Bednarek and start afresh next season

Who needs delap 

when we’ve got archer and Arma (for £10m more)

Delap turned us down. 

[coalman]

Set up nicely for 2-1 to Saints

[StrangelyBrown]

Aarrrr is it time for Captain Jack to make sure we get a jolly rodgering??

[Guest]

Can someone politely explain to me WHY THE FUCK DO WE PLAY FIVE AT THE BACK? 
We concede the same amount of goals regardless. 

[BotleySaint]

Should have been 2-1. We're rocking. Will be 3-1 Ipswich before HT I reckon.

You do know I run the CoT right?

Yep - we had agreed a fee but Ipswich smashed us on wages. Simples. 

[DT]

So poor from Bednarek. Slow and cumbersome. Can’t seem to drop him. Look way better without Armstrong though 

[Tanlee]

THB so headless today

No one on their team has long hair to tempt him, at least. Grabby McGrabberson.

 

Edit: THB is conspiring to give Jack his spot.

Why would you sell two decent Championship CBs when you’re trying to get promoted from the Championship?

[Saint Fan CaM]

THB is riding a booking very close to the wind.

Welungton makes his first error to give Ipswich a chance of 2-1 just before halftime

[SambaMaverick]

We're trying to counter attack with no threat in behind

[ButtikonSaint]

when we have the ball Bree and THB  play left and right back with Aribo the deepest lying midfied / emergency CB alongside Bednarek...
Makes us totally open to counters as we have no pace and no cover, such a weird setup.

[goodymatt]

Enciso is a quality player

[OttawaSaint]

Entertainment is marginally better but we're still a bit shit.

THB injury - it’s time for the Capt!

Who’s fault is it?

THB diving in and getting turned (again), Bednarek marking thin air. Take your pick. Both as crap as each other. 

[goodymatt]

THB injured?

[Viking Saint]

[Saint NL]

THB injured, Stephens will be on soon I'd guess

[Baird of the land]

THB has looked atrocious so he wouldn’t be much of a loss today.

I forgot Bree was playing 

[OttawaSaint]

THB off injured. He's been shite so this might be the turning point!

[HKsaint]

ABK should have started

Scratch that... back on.

So did Bree

[Jack]

What’s the point in playing an 8 foot striker with an awful first touch if we’re not just going to bang crosses in to him?

No it's Coprophilia on Turkish.

[sfc4prem]

THB has been a bit naff since growing his hair out

[Toadhall Saint]

THB needs to come off.

[John Boy Saint]

I thought it was Cobblers often Theorised 

[OttawaSaint]

Has the Danish lad done anything yet?

[Lee On Solent Saint]

Just now, Toadhall Saint said:

All three of the centre backs need to come off.

[Saint Fan CaM]

Bree is not the answer. Nor is TP. Groanback is getting lost in the game now.

[OttawaSaint]

Onuachu is the poster boy of "he's brilliant when he's not in the team".

[LGTL]

Don’t think I’ve heard Bree’s name once. Baffling selection he is.

I know Tall Paul is funny but he’s one of the worst I’ve ever seen at this level. We’d be better off him getting sent off.

Looked quite quick to close down and get a foot in early on but has vanished as the half has gone on

[davefizzy14]

Dibling, ABK and Sulemana to come on please

Not a lot
