Saints 0-0 Millwall - Match Thread

[obelisk]

THB should hit the target. Could have sneaked the 3 points but 1 it is. Millwall still only 7 points ahead of Saints.

[Saint NL]

Boooooooooo

 

An absolute waste of 2 hours of my life. 

[Baird of the land]

Pathetic by saints, playing for a draw at home from minute one.

 

[Suhari]

Absolutely pish.

We're going to be languishing in the EFL for a few seasons I fear.

[Sir Ralph]

What a load of old tosh

[OttawaSaint]

Frank Spencer could field a better formation, lineup, and tactics.

[BotleySaint]

Unfortunately Tonda does not appear to have any new ideas after all.

[John Boy Saint]

I actually fell asleep watching in front of the wood burner 😳

[SouSaint]

Very much a midtable Championship side despite spending an absolute fortune. Dragan Solak and his band of goons are a bunch of cunts.

Sport Republic OUT.

Same as Rasmus’s.

[Totton Saint]

This cannot go on!!!

His only idea was switch McC and Baz. That's it. 

[DT]

Utter, turgid dogshit. No pace or passion. No structure. Clearly another manager who has no clue or is too timid to take on the players/hierarchy, and who bafflingly takes off our best player again.

What a bunch of shit, slow, directionless and talentless players we have. And another woeful managerial decision.

Notable exception - Fellowes. Guess he'll be dropped for daring to take people on.

 

[Mboto Gorge]

What a shock he kept the same shape and formation throughout! Shit scared of changing it. Clueless 

[Saint Fan CaM]

Rubbish waste of a professional football stadium. That level of performance would more at home at Eastleigh’s ground.

[Midfield_General]

A mid-table Championship performance from a mid-table Championship team. 

Boring as fuck and another opportunity for points drifts away. 

Miles off being promotion contenders. 

[obelisk]

Fellows showed at the end there what could have been if we didn't spend the game fannying around with it in our own half all the time. If TE really wants 3 points then maybe someone should tell him that Saints really need to think about attacking the opposition.

Regrettably, I fear it can and will.

Just copy and paste todays comments for  Sundays game .

Predicting that Fellows will come on for Jelert on the hour and we keep 3 CBs on the pitch for the full 90.

Well almost correct, Jelert came off in the 59th minute.

That was absolutely abject for most parts. We finally managed to be a bit positive in the last minutes of injury time, but in general that was a really poor game and outside of Leo or Fellows doing something on their own we’re just so pathetically passive going forwards. The 3 CB thing and 2 holding midfielders is just killing creativity.

The constant slow passing across the back line is hynoptic.

You should have watched the wood burner.

[tdmickey3]

It's hard to describe how bad 90% of that was.

Ipswich showing what a decent manager can do with a good squad of players unlike our clown who has players purchased for 50m

ANOTHER example of stupidity by this band of idiotic owner and board.

[Stowmarket Saint]

Good news though, Boro have lost their last 4 games and haven't scored in any of them.

 

Only right we go there and lose 4-0 to give them a boost perhaps!

Arguably offensive to Eastleigh and if you’d said Sholing I’d have thought the same.

That was absolute shite. It would help if Tonda diplomatically said the same thing post match but he will instead say it was a good point. No it wasn't it was a shit point and he refuses to change the way we play. Only positive is a clean sheet.

[Zorba]

Johannes Spors “We are still targetting immediate promotion to the Premier League”

MY ARSE!

[Willo of Whiteley]

Tonda can leave now.

It can and it will

[Monk]

Nothing constructive to say.

But get tae fuck, that was wank. 

[OneMrsWallace]

We have technically poor players, we've had two inexperienced and weak minded managers so far this season and idiots for owners. It's a bad combination that will lead us nowhere. Nothing to get excited about anymore. It's almost as bad as last season (Except for one brief spell) just for different reasons. 

[bugenhagen]

Well, Tonda has told us that he wants to win every game, and he is not wedded to a back 5, so I guess we just write this one off as a bad day at the office, or bad luck or whatever...

[stknowle]

I have to say, considering the amount of money we’ve spent in this league we are just unspeakably unnacceptably shit. SHIT.

Squeaked a 0-0 at home against a team that’s been bumming around this division and lower since the late 80’s with fuck all money to invest. Truly fucking dreadful.

Can only assume his English is terrible and he doesn’t understand what the word wedded means then.

Not one player in that squad would get into a Premiership team.

[Turkish]

Lots to be positive about. A clean sheet, the unbeaten run continues, more possession, 2 good chances at the end, Baz with a great save. Rome wasn’t built in a day. A good point against a top championship team. Well done Tonda

Well, he did actually learn the word "conundrum" from Blackmore in the same interview, so that might be it 😄

Are you writhing TE post match speech for him,it will sound something like that

[VectisSaint]

Fucked off with Sky, dropping the feed again with 6 minutes to go, and the only bit of excitement missed.

That was poor, but at least Tonda changed things round a bit, the CBs all swapped positions. Clean sheet. Any other positives? Fellows certainly made.a.difference, Bragg was decent without being outstanding. 

[Zorba]

We were ineffective again against another shit side. So predictable.

At least the skates got dicked 5-0. I can have a little smile 😂

[Norm]

Two poor teams produced a crap 97 minutes of boring dirge. Not one Saints is anywhere near Premier League quality, not ONE. 

As for Promotion, please no! We would be embarrassing.

The supporters deserve a refund.

Saints will roll over and give them the 3 points that will keep their heads above water come May.

[Jack]

More evidence that Tonda hasn’t got the experience or ability for the role he’s in. Shambolic appointment again from the ownership and it’s clear it’s going to have to get far worse before it gets any better

[benjii]

Can anyone seriously say they wouldn't rather watch:

Jelert-THB-Stephens-Manning

-------Bragg---Jander--------

Fellows-Robinson/Azaz--Scienza

---‐-------Armstrong---------

[Saint NL]

I request that we rename that stat for Expected Goals (xG) to Imagined Goals (iG) and the games will be more exciting

[ally_uk]

Watched the game, thought we were fucking shit, no urgency or bite...

Anyone thinking we are going up this season is having a laugh....

Tonda the man to take us forward? I doubt it, looks like the bubble has burst already.....Selles Mk 2.0

Bring in Maresca and 433

You did well to smuggle a wood burner into the ground.
