Saints 2-1 (aet) Boro - Match Thread

[StrangelyBrown]

Tin foil hats on for this one....Tonight's ref, Andy Madley loves a Middlesbrough win by the looks of things: 14 wins, 1 draw and 7 losses versus his record for us which is pretty balanced 5w, 3d and 4l. Make of that what you will...

[LiberalCommunist]

Well, here we are at the reap what you sow stage. 

I'm just hoping it relates more to an amazing unbeaten run, and less about antics that should play no part in the build up to games.

Curtis Davies suggesting a 3-0 walkover for the first leg is a fair sporting punishment 😂

[Sunnyside Saint]

I wonder if the referee's remit now is to get 'boro through?

Probably not a coincidence that Downes is on the bench to avoid the ref giving out an early red 👀

So you're saying he reffed us more in 2025...

We'll just have to win by much more to make sure that doesn't matter!

[Saint NL]

Can hardly hear the analysis on the pitch over the fans noise. Great effort

Well done Sky, show the most incredible playoff moment of all time but have some bird talking over it instead of the iconic "DEENEEEEEEY" commentary. 

[Saint NL]

Looks like Amazon made a killing on camouflage gear the last couple of days 😂

[Suhari]

Which old players are there.

Pretty sure I saw Ghillie Do Pradu....

[Saint NL]

Here we go then guys.

Let's just hope football is the winner.

 

 

 

And Boro get fucked

[Holmes_and_Watson]

Hopefully we can take the game to them a lot more than we did last time. Yet stay as organised at the back. So, some early goals to keep them quiet, then look to catch them on any counter.

[benjii]

UP THE FUCKING SAINTS. 

COME ON!

[James G]

[Holmes_and_Watson]

COYR!

[Saint NL]

Sanction for THB for that pep talk before the watershed

[adrian lord]

COYR!

[St Chalet]

Just batter them and this whole problem goes away.

 

[St Chalet]

Ref bottles first chance to give them a cheap penalty. 

[Saint NL]

Players slipping all over the place already

[Mr X]

A little panicy at the back there 

[obelisk]

Have they turned that pitch into a swamp again?

[Willo of Whiteley]

How we feeling? Confident?

[so22saint]

bollocks

[Lighthouse]

Lucky that wasn’t a penalty. It gets given anywhere else on the pitch.

[John Boy Saint]

Oops!

[obelisk]

Dreadful start. 0-1.

[Saint_clark]

Manning GET OUT TO THE MAN, STOP THE CROSS YOU FUCKING TWAT.

[PerthshireSaint]

Oh fuck 

[Suhari]

Fuck.

[64saint]

[Clapham Saint]

Any links for those of us tightarses without sky?

 

[ChristopheVAFC]

[Saint NL]

Not a blistering start.....

[Turkish]

[benjii]

Clear pen there. Haha.

But only because Matski slipped. Why is the pitch always too wet!?

[Saint86]

Fooking useless!!!!! 

[Holmes_and_Watson]

Well sod.

 

[AlexLaw76]

They are able to outnumber us out wide

[adrian lord]

Ffs

[Saint_clark]

Downes should be starting. Charles letting a player get a free shot on the edge of the box as well.
