We do not look as likely to score today as we did at the beginning of the season. Currently the team is too unfamiliar with each other's play. We have no relationships like Burgess-Davies or Chaplin-Burns. We saw individuals trying to prove themselves today - Philogine, Enciso, Broadhead.
Kieran WILL pull this new group together I am sure. Do we have enough time though - bearing in mind Wolves' result today?

I hear they're renaming Playford Road to McKenna's Stables, it's the place where the overrated one exercises his growing collection of carthorses, donkeys and showponies.

How the fcuk does that absolute clown get 2.7?!?! Worst keeper in my living memory. Worse than Marshall…

Obviously Bluearmy hasn't seen too many games.

I thought we actually played decently, more like we did last year. Delap, Cajuste and Enciso were fantastic. But, much mention has been made of our recruiting and we must admit that it has been terribly suspect especially for the prices paid - Philogene has been unimpressive, Clark lacks confidence, Hutch looks tired and Greaves is not better than our legacy defenders. Given the massive spend, considered about our financial fair play position and what it might mean at end of season.

Those that boo. You remain anonymous in the crowd, nobody knows you did it do they!
Booing your team achieves just one thing…. You lose the right to be called a supporter and you become deserter, a person who is only too anxious to throw in the towel. You’re not needed.
Yesterday’s game was a missed opportunity to take 3 points from a poor squad of players, there’s no doubts about that, but the season isn’t over. Those that walked away from the ground after booing their players, do the real supporters a favour…. Don’t bother walking back. This I believe is a rhetorical question, but anyone on here have the courage to no longer remain anonymous? Come on, you still have the cover of your user name.

First half we were by far the better team, created a number of opportunities but with just the one goal to show for it....either hit the effort straight at the keeper, or and it was mostly, not even getting a shot away. Saints scored with their first effort (couldn't see how it got beyond/past/thru Muric as was behind a pillar).
Second half we just seemed to be going through the motions, some decent attacks but generally fizzled out with some half-hearted token gesture crosses or the std pass back & sideways until Saints got everyone back. It's frustrating to watch.
Thought O'Shea handled the big fella really well in the first half, whilst Greaves was probably the better of the two in the second half. Cajuste very good, Hutchison probably had his best game in terms of helping out the defence, however he falls over too easily and loses the ball far too often now. Morsy.....it's so rare for a pass to go forwards from him to create an attack, it's back, short, sideways, back, and his std drop of the shoulder and turn in slow motion is so predictable. I am not Phillips greatest fan but would prefer to see him in preference, maybe even Taylor & Cajuste so as to give us something slightly more dynamic and threatening. We must be the least dangerous team in the league in terms of moving the ball forward through the middle of the park....and by some margin.
Axel definitely our best right sided defender. Thought Townsend did really well in the second half last week and I'd like to see him given a go at left back. Give Leif a rest, as he's not really strong in defence or adding to the attack at the moment.

Where are the subs Phil? They need to be marked down too.
Today’s game took me back to the days of MM - diabolical.

We lost to one of the worst teams in premier history.
We have a goalkeeper who has single-handedly cost us over 12 points so far.

What else is there to say?
The clock is ticking
