0-1

 

[Thrice]

No Tanganga, no Bindon, no Riedewald. Instead it's Mee and McGuinness. Clean sheet seems like an impossible task here.

 

[Blade58]

Bamford, McCallum, Hamer, Seriki and Brooks on at H/T to give us a chance

Obviously no one going off, just bring em on

 

[jt64]

Did we appeal Tanga red and when did the outcome of that get notified?

Yes, earlier, rejected

 

[Kenilworth]

Yes, earlier, rejected

Cnuts

 

[Grey Blade]

Even though the team selection is disappointing, I hope there is the same level of support as on Saturday

 

[Kenilworth]

Their manager has the look of SeLLLLLEs about him

Just popping across the road

You could pop over on the stroke of half time

 

[metalblade]

The thought of McGuiness playing is terrifying

 

[Fjortoft's Aeroplane]

Is this a cup match? Looks like it with that selection. Can see us getting a real drubbing here. Campbell, Chong and Hoever have done nothing to justify a start.

 

[ChipButtyBlade]

Wilder doing all he can to give Saints a chance of ending their 7 match run of not winning.

Selection ......think Mansfield.

 

[Nick Jansky]

The thought of McGuiness playing is terrifying

Wimp.

 

[Edgar Allan Poo]

Their manager has the look of SeLLLLLEs about him

Let's hope he has the same tactical skills too.

 

[ChefYouKnighted1889]

Mee int net cooper in defence

 

[SharpAsAblade]

Why are we always blessed with crap refs

 

[ChefYouKnighted1889]

Cunts

 

[Gateford Blade]

No foul in that

 

[JJ Sefton]

We're not far behind in the xG though.

 

[3Cheers4Ramirez]

Arblaster seems to have form for things deflecting in off him

 

[Notts Blade 123]

Why is Hoever trying to take someone on there. Terrible.

 

[Iffy Onuora's Shiny Head]

Canon is like Nick Montgomery with his running up front when compared to Campbell. The latter is really starting to grate on me with his lack of energy

Might be worth a try.

 

[Jimmy Fleck]

Ipswich away vibes. This will be ugly. At least traitors is on.

 

[Working Class Hero]

Why is Hoever trying to take someone on there. Terrible.

Stupid decision to try and take someone on, and pathetic to roll around on the floor instead of defending your side of the pitch, when there was clearly no foul.

 

[Maltby_blade]

Ipswich away vibes. This will be ugly. At least traitors is on.

Watch that instead then.

 

[WestYorksBlade]

Time to see what this team are made of

lol

 

[3Cheers4Ramirez]

Ipswich away vibes. This will be ugly. At least traitors is on.

They only have Armstrong and Archer to bring off the bench to run at Mee and McGuinness

What could go wrong?

 

[Sharp_as_a_Blade]

The worst part is we have no cb's on the bench, not looking forward to Armstrong and Archer coming on in 2nd half running at a tired Mee and McGuinness. I guess Zatterstrom deal is done or surely he'd be on the bench

 

[VictoryBlade]

Not watching the game, but who's fault was the goal?

 

[AnonBlade]

Chong is awful
