Birmingham 1-1 Saints - Match Thread

[die Mannyschaft]

Archer has scored. A Christmas miracle. At last a goal. 

[adrian lord]

Tonda masterplan in action. 

[Suhari]

That's a decent CF finish actually.

Poacher styleee.

[Saint NL]

Bragg showing Downes that you can pass forward

[Willo of Whiteley]

The three subs combining there. Fair play.

Completely unjust.

On a side note what an absolute helmet Birmingham’s manager is 🤣

[saintant]

Archer. Wow.

[Nieldy]

The ref our best player tonight 😅

[Edmonton Saint]

At least Bragg looks to get the ball forward 

[Mr X]

God it's the hope that kills you 

[Saint Pete]

Jelert doing well. Come on Saints! 

[LVSaint]

I've never seen Archer's goal celebration. Lovely stuff.

You could lip read him yelling "oh my gawwwd" 🤣

[Crab Lungs]

Credit where it’s due, subs worked.

[Suhari]

Jelert.... chucking crosses in first time. Flat, low and rapid.

Like it.

[Turkish]

Brum might have a point about the ref getting in the way but he got in the way for us in the first half and didn’t stop the game so been consistent 

[ant]

Worth noting that Jelert made a really good run to get into a position to make the assist.

Don't worry - we'll soon coach that out of him.

[OttawaSaint]

Forgot to celebrate. We'll still lose 2-1.

[obelisk]

Ref spots something and eases the pressure on Brum. Saints need to step this up. Three points needed.

[lambtiss]

The goal came from a midfielder playing a forward pass, finally ..

[vectraman]

Love that Archer scores. Blues hate it 🤪🤣🤣

[Sheaf Saint]

If the ball didn't actually hit the ref and Brum still kept possession after he moved out of the way, WTF are they complaining about?

He's fucked it now. Will be sent to train with the kids.

[Willo of Whiteley]

Birmingham manager and players rattled 

[Saint NL]

For all the fanfare, Scienza has been poor since he came on

[Harry_SFC]

Every time I've seen Jelert play he's looked very good. Just hope he can stay fit.

Because you need Fellows on the other wing. One of them is easy to mark out of the game. Both is a nightmare for teams. 

[B Rabbit]

We HAVE to go and fucking win this now 

[benali-shorts]

Chris Davies doesn’t have to watch any more. Lucky bastard. 

[Saint NL]

Brum manager seems a right knob, see ya

[OttawaSaint]

Helmet Brum manager just got a straight red! 😂 

[Osvaldorama]

Rattled 

if we wake up and play to even 1/10th of our players ability we can win this now 

[Holmes_and_Watson]

Awe.. their manager gets a red. Lots of players after the ref got a little in the way. Which he did on one of our plays in the first half.

Don’t give a fuck if he blazes a couple over or fails to take on a man.

It’s just nice to have somebody on the pitch who actually wants to attack and COULD do something from nowhere.

But going back in January?

[Behind Enemy Lines]

We never play well against a team once their manager is sent off. 

[Sidney Fudpucker the 3rd]

You know we're gonna lose this in the dying minutes. 

Oh, and we'll lose the Derby. 

[Lighthouse]

That's at least the third manager who's faced some form of disciplinary action after throwing a tantrum against us, in barely half a season.

And then we'll lose TO Derby.

That'll be him dropped from the squad next game. Not having any of that shit here, sunshine.

[Saint Matty 76]

Just stick Harwood Bellis in the box, it feels like such a no brainer.

Have to get Tonda sent off too and level the playing field.

[scumbag]

Fair play to Jelert and Bragg for being positive and risking being fined a weeks wages for it.

[Jonnyboy]

Draw isnt good enough, need to make up for the debacle that was the last match.

[sandwichsaint]

‘The Plan’ is happening, just need a scruffy winner in the 94th minute.

[Saint NL]

Jelert has impressed in his cameo

Although saying that, he definitely seems to have lost some of that “I’m going to run at you every time I get the ball, try and stop me” spark that made him so fun to watch. 
 

Can only assume this shit club has finally coached it out of him. 

[lambtiss]

Jelert has made a big difference

[Themotherfunky]

Would really love to see us go back to a 4231. Bragg/Jander as the Schneiderlin type playmaker. Downes/Ori as the Wanyama Ball-winner. Cbs that don't prick around too much. Full backs that get forward and hold the width. Wingers that tuck in and help in the box. Wasn't so long ago that we looked decent week in week out playing like that.
