They haven't played together under pressure yet though. Let's see how they handle that first. 

Of course they might be poor but the lineup isn't 'very weak' that's ridiculous. 

[Saint_clark]

Prediction - Sugawara and Wellington will be the best two fullbacks in the league this season.

[Saint NL]

I'm fucking pumped up for this, been a while since I could say that

[AlexLaw76]

They will be shithouses, and go 'long'....

[SW11_Saint]

Love the tifo…

[Thereisonlyonemickychannon]

Should have put CHANNON on that banner!

[Saint_clark]

Really good start. We look sharp and looking for the forward pass first and foremost.

[Saint NL]

Good start

[V.Johnathan.Wilson]

Oh Danny Ward's in goal, we just need to put it on target and we'll win this easy.

Actually I think you are right! Good stuff!

[AlexLaw76]

poor from Quarshie there

[Saint_clark]

Kicking the shit out of Moore, I like that.

[Saint NL]

Downes knew what he was so doing there

[Suhari]

Downes leaving his foot in a couple of times.

[Sheaf Saint]

Keifer Moore is a bit of a prick isn't he.

[benjii]

Suga needs to stop giving it away.

[Jonnyboy]

Any live internet streams of the match?

[OttawaSaint]

Any good streams?

Please and thanks!

[Saint_clark]

Ball into the 6 yard box should be the keeper coming to claim every time.

[Saint NL]

Big chance for them.

We need to wake up a bit

[pimpin4rizeal]

Any steams guys ?

[Sheaf Saint]

That's a let off.

[AlexLaw76]

that was close, they probably should have scored

[Saint_clark]

Fraser playing really well so far. 

[Edmonton Saint]

Well we looked good for 2 minutes 

[hypochondriac]

Ffs we can't keep the ball. 

[hypochondriac]

Early days but the Armstrong experiment not working so far. We have nothing up top.

And we're off. Superman wouldnt have claimed that. AA should have closed his man down. Shocking that Jack lost his man. 

[Saint_clark]

I know they spoke about there being a higher threshold for fouls this season but that's ridiculous. Clearly tripping someone with no touch on the ball isn't a foul now?

[Sheaf Saint]

Did the tater just say that WS wants us to be front footed and aggressive?

Mental that was a foul on Downes all day long. 

[benjii]

Fraser doing well.

[Saint_clark]

Wrexham hit the bar.

[Saint NL]

Wellington side netting. Not bad

[Chez]

Should be one down, but started brightly

[Suhari]

We're much more aggressive and brave than last season.

[Saint NL]

Christ, long ranger off the bar

[Saint_clark]

Kieffer Moore you utter prick. Elbows Edwards in the side of the head then throws himself to the ground. Glad the ref didn't fall for it.

[SNSUN]

Warning signs are there. 

Welington looking decent. I will never like 3 CBs but you can't argue we're overloaded in that particular position and thus it is a way to go. Just need to hope Welington and Sugawara provide the width. 

[The Kraken]

Not impressed so far. Dont have much up top to make it stick and weak at the back.

[Harry_SFC]

Adam Armstrong is non existent up top. But then we all knew that would be the case, didn't we?

[SNSUN]

Anyone running a sweep on how often the 'taters say the word "Hollywood"?

[Saint_clark]

Quarshie needs to learn quick he ain't gonna have time on the ball to waddle about like that.

[hypochondriac]

We aren't playing great but I have to say regardless of the result today I already prefer this style of football.

Fraser lively, AA just not in the game, Downs on second half to give a focal point and link up play. Midfield a good battle, plenty of energy from both sides. Wrexham have had more quality in the final third, clear where significant funds need to be spent for Saints. Wellington should have gone across goal for his chance. 

[hypochondriac]

Quarshie looks clumsy. 

[Sheaf Saint]

Utterly pointless launching long balls forward like that when the only man up front to receive it is Arma.

[Saint_clark]

How have we not scored....holy shite
