Unrealistic of them, really-I wouldn't expect any of our players to consider a moe to Rotherham. Maybe Platt at a push, but Freddy is on as much money as their squad between them! Never gonna happen. Also..swapping a striker for a striker isn't really helping, is it? That leaves us with...

OK so you don't think we'd have been more likely to score during the first half if King was playing for us instead of,say, McSheffrey? Really? I mean, I hated the bloke when he was doing great, never mind when he shat on us...but he was 3 times the goalscorer of anyone else we have, that's plain...

And theirin lies the rub..are we getting ready financially for L1/L2?

Entirely agree, and we are the only side working towards the new regulations this season! He can go suck on a lemon.

I think it's partly the players character as well as a lack of experience. We had 2 young men making pro their debuts, and Hussey in his first proper season, and aside for Sammy we didn't have a leader out there. Last season we had Carsley, King and Westwood-3 particualrly vocal and experienced...

Snozzer said all along that nothing would happen before this window closed, but Hoff would strengthen with 4-5 Prem loans and 2-5m at Xmas. So no worries, cool beans, all on track :)

Saints 3-0 up v Leeds!! Connolly placed the 3rd really well, they don't need Lukas. Good news at last.

Nah but I love this "didn't have a shot to save" analysis when we'e lost 1-0! Bit of a contradiction, and one AT was guilty of in his interview. He said he asked Murphy if he had a shot to save, but went quiet when he got to saying what Murphys reply was..I'd like to think it was "Erm, no...

Keogh was odd at RB, like he was playing at CB..he's not had much preseason thime at RB, we can't expect him to switch position and not be effected. In fact our formation all game was vague and uncertain, at the start being a kinda 4-2-2-1-1 (the old, defensive Brazil formation). That's very...

Did he save the goal or the effort that hit the post?!

Sorry, I kinda agree with him. We only got up the pitch when we did as Leicester were sitting back with men behind the ball to secure the 3 points.

Bell wasn't match fit, but there wasn't really anyone else. Maybe Thomas, but thats 2/3 CM positions as kids. You just can't do that. Sheff, and indeed everyone apart from Sammy, did not look match fit. If it's one player, he's lazy..if it's the entire bloody squad bar the skipper, you have to...

Well, I was close-only he chose Baker ahead of ROD, and trashed our shape with Sheff all over the shop. Not that it's any consolation :mad:

I did say we should adopt him as our new mascot if we win-Cyrille The Sky Blue Squirrel was my suggested name :)

I hope something comes of it, but can't see SISU changing their stance. Their heels are well and truly dug in.

Worried that we only looked good against 10 men. Concerned that we are like a team of Ray Wilkins' (nickname The Crab..)-all we do is pass it backwards or sideways. I'm not advocating a return to Hoofroyds tactics, but to quote him, "it's about the right ball". We did not play the right balls...

It was my highlight too! How on earth did he get in the stadium? How far away is the nearest tree (Platt aside)?!

No way man, Vassells was one of the most stick-on reds I've sever seen! Two-footed lunge..not a tackle at pace trying to take the ball like Bakers. Vassell had zero intention of that! Filthy foul.

I thought it may have just been a yellow. Terrible decision, and was the ref evening things up. You can't tell me that Bambas' minute-long tirade at the ref shortly before (which was a booking, but not given!) didn't effect his decision making thereafter. Once again, we're beaten by a few old...

Did their best and are cracking prospects-but not ready for the first team, as much mentally as footballers. They are boys, not men, and need better decision making, composure an positioning to be able to play regulatly at this level. They both looked very unsure of themselves after we went down...
