Ok having an opinion Alex. But it’s not a good opinion as you’re wrong.

My money is on trolling for reactions

As much as I’m not always a fan of Alex’s opinions I think that’s a pretty fair and accurate summary above.

Our tactics is pass sideways, across the back, hope that Harwood-Bellis can play a low whipped ball to the CM who can then play it off wide, who can then play it down the centre. It’s too easy.

Yes he’s done ok and we’ve picked up points, but it was a low bar after Will Still.

There is no excuse for not being top two with the squad we have, and that’s the biggest frustration. 
We sacrifice an additional attacking player in either midfield or up front for the sake of one additional five yard pass across the defence or between the goalkeeper and defence; it can’t be surprising that we get to the opposition penalty area and there is no other Saints player there?

I think Saints will be looking for a new manager next season.

We were rock bottom last season and persisted with a back five. Talk about going down with no fight whatsoever.

We’re now in a league we should dominate and our tactics are to defend first, which we can’t, and attack second.

It’s incredibly naive, and IF it’s a Sport Republic thing of playing a back five then they should hang their heads in shame.

I’m not against Tonda Eckhart after our upturn in form, but if he is serious he has to try something new and have a plan B.

Well by your own admission you didn’t see the game - those were not the tactics solely at all.

If you had seen we were play both wings when Fellows came on - first half we were unbalanced with Wellington facing wrong way receiving and going nowhere.

If anyone like Alex thinks we are playing like Still team they are not watching-the second half we played some good stuff - watch the move that ended with Fellows sliced effort that was nothing like you described!

Azaz through ball to Armstrong scuffed wide that wasn’t how you think is one way of playing either.

We continued with 5 at the back because we didn’t have a big striker on the bench and the 3 centre halves were a threat from corners. THB was playing as an inverted wing back not defence and we had brought in Archer to go up top and Azaz went deeper like he does for Ireland how anyone cannot see that’s a change in shape baffles me!

The above isn’t just aimed at you it’s just lazy fans that just decide things without actually watching or understanding what’s happening on the pitch to go with their opinion.

Remind us, how may games in did you want Will Still to be replaced?
