Mr Saints Posted Saturday at 14:53 Posted Saturday at 14:53 Really missing the control of Flynn Downes IMO. 3
Patches O Houlihan Posted Saturday at 14:53 Posted Saturday at 14:53 Most nervous 3-1 up at half time I can remember... Our second goal was a thing of absolute beauty; Dobbin I think with a stunning back heel on the near touch line that completely sold his markers. Scienza drifted into no-mans land and I'm thinking "please let us score here the build up has been great" and then Bree delivers an absolute pile driver 😁😁😁😁😁😁 I'm almost hoarse at half time and I'm at home in my living room 😁😁 I would love it if we beat them properly 2
obelisk Posted Saturday at 14:53 Posted Saturday at 14:53 Got to be happy with 1-3 at half time. A sloppy 10 minutes or so apart, that was a pretty good half and showed us that attack is the best form of defence when it comes to Saints. 5
Holmes_and_Watson Posted Saturday at 14:55 Posted Saturday at 14:55 Cracking start. A bit of a worry with no Larin. But we changed our approach again for Dobbin, and we're getting better at it. Having Azaz, Dobbin, Matsuki all interchange was too much for West Ham. Add to that the direct threat of Leo, the delivery from the full backs, and a strong midfield, and we deserved the lead from our passing and work. Even so, West Ham aren't favourites to go up for nothing. They put us under a lot of pressure, got a goal back, and we're pushing for that equaliser. Santos will be focusing on that, rather than their poor start, believing they can turn this round. We've got to keep the levels we've shown. Dropping back would suit the home side perfectly. 3
Sheaf Saint Posted Saturday at 14:55 Posted Saturday at 14:55 Well, what a see-saw game this has been so far. Never would have expected a 3-1 HT lead before KO. Really pleased for Dobs today. Popping up in the right place to tap them in like that is something I've seen him do loads at youth level. This has been his best performance for us by a long way so far, and hopefully that goal will be a real confidence boost for him. 2

Saint_clark Posted Saturday at 14:55 Posted Saturday at 14:55 Really hope that -4 doesn't cost us automatics at the end of the season, we'd be 2nd right now and only one point off top.

Thripp87 Posted Saturday at 14:57 Posted Saturday at 14:57 Missing Downes as they are playing through easily. Attack best form of defence against this lot. Next goal is key. 1

Patches O Houlihan Posted Saturday at 14:59 Posted Saturday at 14:59 Genius from @Paul_B can you call that again a couple of times in the second half please 😁

Ridiculous, really, for the Championship. Although it would help if we weren't so casual on the ball for periods of the game.

If we win the winners (i.e. Bolton), the -4 becomes irrelevant. This season is in our own hands.
saintant Posted Saturday at 14:59 Posted Saturday at 14:59 We'd currently be 2nd without the 4 point deduction.

Do I start the second half the same, or move to an English ale? It's a team game. I say work your way through 11, then move on to the sub drinks. 1 1
Saint Fan CaM Posted Saturday at 15:01 Posted Saturday at 15:01 6th as it stands - 5 pts off the leaders.

Saint Fan CaM Posted Saturday at 15:03 Posted Saturday at 15:03 Need to come out firing and with a high line. Don’t fall for their game whatever happens. Get Welington on at 65 mins.
Suhari Posted Saturday at 15:05 Posted Saturday at 15:05 Titanic Plum Porter it is. Which means Stephens will score. 1
Saint NL Posted Saturday at 15:06 Posted Saturday at 15:06 Big chance for west ham. Need to see these first 10 mins out

Suhari Posted Saturday at 15:07 Posted Saturday at 15:07 (edited) Fucking hell. Save Peretz. Edited Saturday at 15:07 by Suhari
St. Ciervo Posted Saturday at 15:07 Posted Saturday at 15:07 Peretz is worth his weight in gold. Incredible save and recovery. 3
Holmes_and_Watson Posted Saturday at 15:08 Posted Saturday at 15:08 Whew! Great stop. WHU not having a slow start in this half.
stknowle Posted Saturday at 15:08 Posted Saturday at 15:08 Kin ell what à save. Was hoping for a calmer start to the 2nd half tbh.

Patrick Bateman Posted Saturday at 15:08 Posted Saturday at 15:08 Bit late to the match, any streams?

obelisk Posted Saturday at 15:08 Posted Saturday at 15:08 Good moment to go down with an injury. Need to stop the WHU flow.

Saint NL Posted Saturday at 15:09 Posted Saturday at 15:09 Edozie coming on. He seems to be ahead of Fellows on the pecking order now
Saint NL Posted Saturday at 15:10 Posted Saturday at 15:10 Jander stupid challenge. He's been all over the place today
Saint Fan CaM Posted Saturday at 15:11 Posted Saturday at 15:11 Saints letting WH back into the game - doing everything they shouldn’t do. Now dangerous FK.
