Well done indeed lads. 3 vital priceless points...to which we need to add a further 3 next week v Cardiff. My weekend (for once) will be enjoyable! Thanks lads.

LGTL Posted 21 February, 2009 Share Posted 21 February, 2009 We have won more away games than Preston, Cardiff, Swansea, QPR etc etc, if we can just sort out this home form we might be OK.

Hehe, what a game, my nails are gone and the radio was in a bit of danger at the end there, but how come we only seem to win when there's been a protest? Hm, as things stand, we could actually be out of the relegation zone at the moment, although we'd have to win our game in hand by 3 or 4. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ExSt Peter Saint Posted 21 February, 2009 Share Posted 21 February, 2009 I was shocked when I heard the goals go in. Still can't really believe it, but we'll still basically have to play like we did in the first half today for 90 minutes every game to get out of this. Very nice to have a win to celebrate for once, anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

70's Mike Posted 21 February, 2009 Share Posted 21 February, 2009 Just got home, good march, great support inside SMS. IMO whilst Sagga will get the headlines, it was a game won by the performances of 2 un sung heroes, Euell up front gave us something we have been crying out for all season , a physical presence he created space for Sagga and worked their back four brilliantly. I also thought Gillett in midfield gave us a bite and energy. Even DMG appeared to appreciate having Euell up front. So much for those who said having a protest outside effects the level of support inside, along time since all four sides of SMS were singing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

saint lard Posted 21 February, 2009 Share Posted 21 February, 2009 Just because we get a result,at long last,does not mean people that are not in favour of Wotte do not have a valid point. Ffs,one game thats all,from reports it was good stuff for 45 mins. I hope he succeeds in turning it around,but i am yet to be convinced that he is imune from critisism.

Best not to start mouthing after too much, we don't want this first win to be a flash in the pan... lest you fall into the trap of those who jumped up and down shouting "Rupert's right, Rupert's right!" every time JP got an away result...

um pahars Posted 21 February, 2009 Share Posted 21 February, 2009 A very good performance. IMHO once again the difference was the class exuded by Saga. His clinical finishing (plus the same from Surman) was the real difference between the sides. A slow start and then bang, bang, bang and we're in control and playing some good stuff. Usual jitters in the second half but by then we were coasting and they were chasing the game. Some good performances from the experienced players who really stepped up to the plate today. Davies - 7 - Nothing much to do, although I think he made on good save. James - 7 - Some very good crosses in the first half and better than usual Saeijs - 8 - Very dominant, rugged and took no prisoners Perry - 7 - A fairly quiet game Skacel - 8 - Always up for it and gave us an outlet on the left Lallana - 6 - Didn't really do much, but didn'rt really do anythign wriong either McGoldrick - 6 - Don't really think he's a centre midfielder, so not sure why we played him there. Gillett - 7 - Got stuck in and played one of his best games for us Surman - 7 - Great strike and better than recent matches Euell - 8 - Led the line superbly, mixed it up, took the pressure off Saga and always running. Saga - 9 - Different gravy and what we have been missing for so long. He must have as many goals as McGoldrick by now. I think he's productive!!!! Hopefully this will be the start of a good run as the team looked pretty good today. A bit unsure about middle of the park (Gillett & McGoldrick) but the more experienced players ensured we weren't going to lose. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AndyNorthernSaints Posted 21 February, 2009 Share Posted 21 February, 2009 Great win and better team selection. Sounds like Saints play better with Wotton starting on the bench. Think we'd be mid table or higher if Saga had been here all season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Papa Shango Posted 21 February, 2009 Share Posted 21 February, 2009 Good stuff. Thought everyone played their part today. Keep Euell up front with Saga, they can cause anyone in this league problems. Thought McGoldrick did quite well, if we are going to play him keep him in midfield. Gillet, Surman and Skacel were very good as well. Great escape 2009?
