Why do saints always seem weaker after we've scored? 

Aged like fine milk!

 

Haha joking because you are right.

 

Great way to respond though!

[CB Fry]

Two more and we can relax.

[Sheaf Saint]

Beadle will be very disappointed to let that in TBH. 

[Sheaf Saint]

Dunno how that's not a foul on Azaz.

[benjii]

Ref letting cynical fouls go without a yellow.

[Saint NL]

What the fuck was that on Scienza 😂

It was on his weaker right hand side.

[Saint NL]

Three points off the playoffs as things stand

[Saint Fan CaM]

That’s two cynical fouls not gaining a card.

[Saint NL]

Score another before half time, then play out a dull second half and conserve energy for the midweek game. A Tonda special

[obelisk]

Dumb fk to concede

[Mr X]

Azaz barely touched him there 

[Saint Fan CaM]

Soft fk for Brum.

[Saint NL]

Leo having a lay down 😂

[Saint Fan CaM]

Wall did its job, but you could see Baz would have been beaten.

[obelisk]

Birmingham well capable of scoring.

I blame the man on yellow for that, not Azaz. A stiff breeze could have knocked the runner down.

[Sheaf Saint]

Another free header for Brum, thanks to our collection of ball-watching defenders.

[Saint NL]

Awful pass from bazunu

[tdmickey3]

Free header

[Mr X]

Birmingham definitely getting stronger need to hold firm 

[saint michael]

Nearly 3

[Suhari]

Scienza is fucking excellent.

[obelisk]

More work on attacking corners is still needed.

[tdmickey3]

Ref is a joke for both teams

[St. Ciervo]

Scienza... We are not worthy!

Best player in the EFL, surely?

[Saint Fan CaM]

Scienza - is just superb. So direct and dangerous.

[Saint Fan CaM]

I dread to think what we’ll be without Scienza - he is the heart of the team.

[obelisk]

I do worry when Saints try to defend set pieces.

See last week.

We will find out soon enough. He will be in Liverpool red soon, surely. 

[tdmickey3]

We look like conceding from every set piece 

[St. Ciervo]

We need to give him a new contract, women, yachts, the key to the city, anything he wants to keep him.

Is it the Brum commentary team?

They just said something was "deceiving Stephens" which I thought had a nice ring to it

Brummies

Standard 

[Sheaf Saint]

So many opportunities to clear that but it still ends in a shot and a corner to defend.

[Lighthouse]

I swear these commentators have said ‘blues’ about 200 times this half and not once ‘Birmingham’. Am I watching the unlicensed, Pro Evo Soccer 2006 version of this match?

[Saint Fan CaM]

Commentators said we were being sucked in. Mmm, chance would a fine thing eh lads? 🥴🤣

As oppo commentators go, they're actually not bad. Clearly biased, of course. But definitely more objective and insightful than some that I've heard this season.

[benjii]

Good stuff with the ball, and pretty decent off it, aside from missing a couple of crosses. Other than set pieces, Birmingham don't seem to have much.

Let's hope we get on the front foot after the break.

[obelisk]

Saints have gone into incompetent more for the last 10 minutes or so. Birmingham attacking with ease while Saints can't pass or tackle. Thank goodness for half time. 2-0.

[Hopper]

Thankfully I’ve got Blackmore and Tessem on my stream although Tessem is grating as ever 😂 

 

Solid half, couple of half chances for Brum that we need to be mindful of. Would love to see us nab an early third to put this to bed.

[Danbert]

This is so much better than what we served up at the start of the season. I think I'm starting to believe!

Agreed. Rather listen to them than Jo Tessem tbh.

Yes, I dont expect neutrals but they have an interesting relationship with noth the english language and the rules of association football.
