Sheff Utd 1-2 Saints - Match Thread

[Toussaint]

Only saw the second half. Great three points but we were very disjointed and unconvincing after the second goal. 

[Southner]

Anyone else have a tingly sausage? 

[Convict Colony]

I feel I've spent the entire match on Sheffields feed as these commentators were 100% for them

what ever you do, don't watch any of the highlights from the 1st half

[StrangelyBrown]

Fantastic to win at last!!!

The commentators are absolute helmets - desperate for the inferior team to win...

[Sidney Fudpucker the 3rd]

Can't believe that result given how shit we were. Still want WS out.

Hard work when it shouldn't be!

[Colinjb]

Psychologically, a huge result. 

We rode our luck at the end, but how we played, we deserved that. 

[Saint_clark]

I like how the commentators are suddenly acting as if the threshold for fouls isn't lower on keepers than the rest of the team.

Stewart with a good couple of goals and a handy three points is most welcome. That was dreadful though. At this rate we might at least beat relegation.

[hypochondriac]

God we needed that. We were absolutely shite but blimey I'll take it. Quarshie is pretty gash and we got away with it. Ref awful and you have to say Sheffield United can feel a bit aggrieved.

[stfrancisofbenali]

Still very emotional at full time. Like it. 

[SNSUN]

A win is a win is a win.

Could have gone either way but nice to be on the winning side and nice the penalty miss didn't cost us.

3 points next game and we're back in the play off hunt. 

Thought Wood, Fellows and Jander were good tonight, Fraser was decent when be came on. I still think our shape is wrong though. 

[benjii]

Thanks Ref and Ross!

[Micky]

We won because Sheffield United are crap and we are just a very little bit less crap, nothing more. 

[Paul_B]

Well fuck me sideways. 

Following it on here it seemed like we were doing everything in our power to throw it away! What is our problem?? Apart from being so shit!

[vectraman]

Get the fuck in there Saints. Hopefully the start of better times to come 🤞🤞

[saint michael]

Still needs to have his blood pressure checked his face is redder than his hair 

[Baird of the land]

Still not convinced by Still. Stewart and Mccarthy have bought him extra time though.

Absolutely garbage substitutions again.

The positive. That stewart strike. Hopefully we'll finally get to see the player we thought we'd bought from sunderland. I really like Charles/Jander and wood/edwards look pretty decent at CB.

 

[Convict Colony]

Stewart rather than incisive play won that

[Sunglasses Ron]

How the fuck are we now ‘only’ 4 points from 2nd?

[AlexLaw76]

results pretty favourable for us also

[RedArmy]

An ugly win, but a win. 
 

Jander, Wood, Stewart, Fellows, Charles all played well. Hit and miss from the rest of them.

Ross Stewart is the GOAT.

Finally we come out on top. Deserved that on the night. Apart from the last 10 minutes Saints largely bossed it. 

Armstrong and Stewart staking a claim is brilliant for the team. Something to build on.

We’ve played better than that and lost this season, and owed a bit to a ref that actually wasn’t trying to screw us over at every opportunity for once, but right now I don’t care  

Hopefully that’s the spark that Stewart needs to finally be the striker we were hoping he could be when we bought him!

[stknowle]

Jesus that was hard work. I reckon things are turning though and we’re only 3 points off the playoffs despite our 1 ⭐️ start. If Ross stays fit he is - finally - what we’ve been crying out for.

and to think a number of numpties on here think we are out of the promotion race.

[Saint Scott]

Amazingly, we're only 4 points off 2nd!?

It's still very early in the season.

[Wade Garrett]

Good win.

We absolutely lost our way in the last 15 minutes though.

Jay Robinson had a poor half.

A striker finally making a decisive difference for us, a truly novel idea!

you made the difference tonight then, go visit him before the next game 

[Lighthouse]

Five consecutive league wins against them now. Last time they took points off us was February 2009.

Good experience for Robinson though, that. I thought he did well without really having a massive impact.

4 points from relegation zone.

4 points from automatic spots.

 

[AlexLaw76]

Charles good, Jander good, Stewart 2 good goals

Thought fellows was very good, so wonder why he went off

Wood leaves it all on the pitch, that is for sure....aggressive CB

[macca155]

Ref was MOTM for us today, about time we had one of those.

Great to see Ross Stewart get a few goals. Shame on all you doubters 😳

A win is a win no matter how ugly, but there is work to do. No doubt about that.

Good thing is we've got 3 points at Sheffield Utd. They didn't look that bad, and I suspect Wilder will get them cooking soon. Others will find it tougher at Bramall Lane.

3 points off the playoffs, been a good week.

Weak league.

[Miltonaggro]

Gene Wilder clearly the difference between the two sides!

[Mr X]

We gott very lucky but about time! Sheffield United deserved a point to be fair 

[suewhistle]

Hee hee. In the pub and I've got a Portsmyth expert next to me.. How bad Saints' support is and all those tiresome clichés.  Think I'll have another pint just to listen to his incoherent mutterings.  

[Greedyfly]

We won. 

 

Jander is good (give away aside).

Fellows is good. 

Stewart might be what we need and he was my MOTM tonight 

Woods is good. 

 

But fuck me it's still far too pedestrian, and we've won because a really good strike.
