Fulham 0-1 Saints - Match Thread

[Saint NL]

Losing in extra time would be the absolute worst case today

[SaintNate]

Offside!

[tdmickey3]

Chasing shadows now, can't get near the ball

[Saint86]

Ref is having a shocker this half, almost like he's decided to make up for the first half disallowed goal. Blatant bias in multiple calls inside the first 7min.

[obelisk]

Offside. Fulham goal ruled out.

Ref's giving Larin nothing.

PL bias.

[Sheaf Saint]

Lucky. Manning very nearly played him on.

[Saint NL]

Manning lucky with the offside there

Free kick only got given because larin got annoyed at being fouled repeatedly, 3or so times now, and the ref giving that drop ball to fulham when we had possession. Just a joke.

Larin should not react like that, but ref needs to sort it out. Hopefully it fires us up.

Slow thinking 

[SNSUN]

I'm dipping in and out of TNT. We seem to be happy soaking up Fulham pressure. I'd rather we pushed forward a bit. Earn your money Tonda. 

[adrian lord]

Pens anyone? Are we any good them these days?

[tdmickey3]

Feels like a matter of time before they score

[obelisk]

Fellows through on goal. Saved. As usual.

[trousers]

Someone teach Fellows to shoot FFS

[Saint NL]

Commentator said saints have made some odd decisions on managers and players in recent years. That's a polite way of putting it

[Sheaf Saint]

Oooooh. Is Fellows ever going to score!?

[stknowle]

Shite effort from Fellows

[SNSUN]

Come on, bury that.

[benjii]

Fellows is never going to score for us.

Put it this way... I'd be much more confident with Peretz in goal than with Bazunu.

[tdmickey3]

Shit by fellows 

[Saint NL]

Lol, after I said Fellows didn't get any big chances he does that 🤦

[Disco Stu]

Such a poor finish from Fellows.

[Sheaf Saint]

This ref is just trolling us with his bias now.

Jander elbowed in the face, free kick to fulham.  Fulham player even came over to check he was okay. Ref is appalling. Goes from a much needed chance for us to load their box, to them attacking ours - which in the cup vs a higher opposition side is a big difference.

Why have Fellows and Leo swapped sides! They both look shit on the wrong side

[Saint In Cornwall]

Why does nobody chip the goalie

It was an accident

[RedArmy]

4 options and manning throws the ball to a Fulham player 

[AlexLaw76]

Larin, missed

Offside though

[obelisk]

Larin puts it wide. Shooting practice required.

[trousers]

Larin's onside there...?

[Saint NL]

Will we ever hit the target? 😂

[Disco Stu]

Shittest throw-in of the day is awarded to Ryan Manning.

does not matter

[stknowle]

Christ on a bike our finishing has been so shit. Back to the Still period level of shit.

[adrian lord]

gonna rue these missed chances I fear

[Saint86]

Another error by the ref

It still a foul mate, you can't elbow people in the face 😄

[trousers]

Marco Silva half time talk: "Nobble Scienza"

Mission accomplished....

[Saint NL]

Judging by the finishing so far, will we even score if we get to a penalty shootout?

It takes a quality player to do that! 

[Colinjb]

Just take Scienza off. He is too important for us to risk.

[Disco Stu]

Scienza injured on the hour mark. Probably just moments from coming off 🫠

[tdmickey3]

Most important thing today is no injuries to key players 

[adrian lord]

Paul Mortimer, pundit on BBC website, suggesting our lads are fitter than theirs. Crikey.

Nope, just had his arm, quite normal

So what? It’s still a clear foul. 

[Saint86]

Not delighted to see Iwobi coming on...
