Lincoln 1-1 Saints - Match Thread

[Saint NL]

Commentator just described that throwin as a floater 🤣

[captainchris]

Ffs this is crap

[captainchris]

We do not close down anybody !

[Saint NL]

Big chance for Lincoln. Route one stuff

[adrian lord]

Thank God we got Peretz

[Lee On Solent Saint]

Downes lucky no card there

[saint michael]

Great save Peretz. Jack had it covered 

[Mr X]

Embarrassing we are nowhere near the level we should be at so far 

[Osvaldorama]

Some save that from Peretz. Saw it late and still got down well 

[sockeye]

Our away performances have been poor this season.

[Saint NL]

That's a yellow all day tbf

[Sheaf Saint]

Flynn lucky to avoid a card there.

[Gloucester Saint]

Astonished - and relieved - it wasn’t a yellow. 

[RedArmy]

Need to get Azaz involved. This has been really poor. 

[hypochondriac]

Lincoln playing much better football than us. I thought they were cloggers?

[Osvaldorama]

Either lincoln are better than I thought, or we are worse than I thought. 
 

Haven’t worked it out just yet 

[Gloucester Saint]

Clueless so far. If Draper gambled at the back post that’s 1-0 Lincoln.

No attempt to stop the cross - lazy.

[Saint NL]

We are getting bullied all over the pitch

[adrian lord]

We can’t cope with their harrying strategy. 

[Saint NL]

That cross was never going to come in 🤣

[Saint Fan CaM]

Jeez - collectively not defending our area once again.

[saint michael]

We attack, we don’t shoot, we then are back with keeper. What’s the point. 

[Gloucester Saint]

The commentator is going to say this all game - ‘Downes £18m player, Azaz £12m, Lincoln record signing there for 50p and two backs of Walkers Roast Chicken flavour’.

[die Mannyschaft]

Off to Winchester City so anyone watching Saints keep us updated on our quality of football , bbc text  suggests we aren't doing much so far.

[RedArmy]

Russell Martin football from the wingers. 
 

Boring, boring saints. Take someone on ffs.

Lincoln aren't that bad, people underestimate them as a smaller club.

[Gloucester Saint]

Decent corner from Leo but not attacked with any conviction.

[adrian lord]

Our attacks are all coming from left-wing, but they are rather predictable and the final Ball has been shocking.

[Saint Fan CaM]

Ref doing a decent job tbf

I keep saying why are we playing RM football now he's gone. Maybe RM was a much better manager than most Saints fans think for all our managers to copy his tactics.

[sockeye]

That roulette was cold tbf

[Saint NL]

Samba skills from Lincoln

[Harry_SFC]

Apart from Millwall game we've been incredibly average so far this season. Way too many backwards passes.

[adrian lord]

Is this in JWP territory?

[hypochondriac]

Thoroughly underwhelmed by our football this season -one Millwall half being an exception.

[Saint NL]

Stoke 3-0 up against Charlton

[Noodles34]

Can’t believe some of these negative comments. 
its certainly unjust that Lincoln aren’t rolling over for us, who do they think they are ? 

[obelisk]

Wasted free kick

Clearly not.

[St Chalet]

JWP free kick, bit far out, had ago anyway, should have crossed it.

[Saint NL]

The lesser spotted JWP toe punt

[Disco Stu]

I know he's scored from that range before but a good delivery would have been the better choice there.

[St Chalet]

They look shaky when we run directly at them.

[Osvaldorama]

Wellington is having a proper stinker. 
 

Don’t think he’s passed to a Saints player yet 

[Gloucester Saint]

Charlton - flying start

Stoke - poor start after spending money, Robins under slight pressure

So Stoke 3-0 up in 25 minutes then.

We’ve had opportunities to cross and shoot and chose not to. Very strange football. Playing slow and plodding again. Nothing to do with negative. We may well win this as another scrappy win but personally I like to see fast attacking football which Inthink we are capable of as last year proved. 

[bobby_charles]

They are a team of units I don't think this opens up until the 60th minute  

[hypochondriac]

Ffs lads keep the ball!

[Saint NL]

Stephens 😱😱😱

Either because they’re not expecting it or it’s the JWP effect.
