Yep

[Saint86]

Shocking the last 10min. Any semblance of a game plan has utterly fallen apart. 

The defenders are basically stood around watching ffs.

And like night follows day 

[Toussaint]

We are going down 

[AlexLaw76]

As per, they are starting to press us a little and are winning the ball back in our half

this results in us playing long and surrendering midifield 

0-1

could see it coming

[OttawaSaint]

Donkeys 0-1 Dobbin

[Saint NL]

3 players around him, zero tackles

And there is the 'and there it is' post.

Hopeless 

[Midfield_General]

This is absolutely embarrassing, again

[Viking Saint]

What a shambles

[Andy Hill]

Need more defenders on the pitch !!

[Saint_clark]

Edwards and THB are a disgrace to the title of centreback. So weak and ineffectual.

[badgerx16]

LOLOLOLOLOL

 

Still out !

[AlexLaw76]

This setup is ridiculous 

hybrid wing back, shifting from 4 or 5 at the back.

shocking 

[SambaMaverick]

Are we sure Edwards wasn't playing for the QPR disability team last season

[jamesfp1]

At least he's gone

[obelisk]

Cross comes in too easily. Shambolic defending. 0-1.

Give it time

[Midfield_General]

Boos have well and truly started now

’Sacked in the morning’, presumably from our fans

[Saint NL]

Don't worry lads, our false 9 will bag a couple

Every team we plays know they have to keep it tight for half an hour then they can do what they like.

From Mannings side as well. Nobody is surprised.

Edwards playing both Right back and centre back within minutes

[Sheaf Saint]

Oh my days. That is the most fucking pathetic goal you could ever imagine conceding.

Just fuck the fuck off Saints. All of you. Every fucking single one of you, with the possible exception of Scienza.

[JohnnyShearer2.0]

All changed when the Preston keeper went down and their manager told the team to press.

Mess at the back, 5 defenders and still cant defend.

[Saint NL]

Sacked in the morning rings around St Marys

Doubt it

[vectraman]

5 at the back and they all stand there watching Macca save it and then allowing their player to backheel it in. Absolutely total and utter gash defending. Embarrassing. 🙈

Think you'll get the opposite I'm afraid, Scienza is definitely going places after this season

[Challenger]

They set up and play in the same old way, and they fail in the SAME old way.

[AlexLaw76]

For fuck sake, take off a CB for Fellows

[Crab Lungs]

“Give Still time…. He’s building something” 

[OttawaSaint]

Dreadful.

Dreadful formation.

Dreadful selections.

Dreadful "tactics".

Dreadful attacking.

Dreadful defending.

Dreadful passing.

Dreadful effort level.

Dreadful, just fucking dreadful.

We still have dreadful substitutions to come.

[Toussaint]

At lest Downes is taking the game by the scruff of the neck. Solid gold that boy. 

[sockeye]

Sell up Solak...

[Sir Ralph]

Get fellows on. Give them pelters at HT

[LGTL]

There’s nothing much left to say really. 

[hypochondriac]

I just don't get it. Still under pressure at least play with a simple formation and just fucking go for it. If you lose at least you've gone down fighting.

Even beard boy Russ changed it up when he felt the heat.

[Saint NL]

Tessem just said the team relies on corners but they aren't good at corners 😂

What a shambles

[Chez]

Aziz loses it. Zero effort to get back and win it. Lazy fucking cunt.

[Hoggins]

A new low

[kjurwi]

Try Woods and Quarshie cd and Fellows, Azaz and Scienza behind Armstrong. 

 

Can't keep a clean sheet so dump the back 5 and try to out score the other team. 

 

Not that we can score either. 

[James]

Whatever Still is building i don't want to see it. Going down playing like this and with this setup. Sorry that it hasn't worked but he has to go. 

[Smirking_Saint]

He has to go… I don’t know what his gameplan is ? What his identity is ?

Its just 11 men on the pitch for me, nothing else, I can’t see any evidence of any actual coaching, any motivation, any tactical plan

Say what you want about Martin, he was stubborn but he was a very good coach (ok it didn’t work) and his players knew what he wanted. Even Juric you could see what he wanted

I genuinely couldn’t tell you what our gameplan is

Its awful
