Disappointing half. Brighton have played the press well but Saints looking a little tired. Vestegaard and Hojberg have been awful. They have sucked out any energy the Saints have had. Both need to be subbed and dropped for the rest of the season. No one will buy them on that performance.
The Good thing is that Ralph looks really unhappy with the way things have gone. I expect some half time changes
Big move needed now, on KWP, Stephens, Armstrong and Long please Off vests, PEH, Obafemi and Smallbone
JWP must be knackered too. Doesn’t he cover the most distance? Cant really blame Ralph, we’re safe not much to play for. There will never be a better time to have a look at the prospects. Is anyone else missing Yoshi?!
The fullbacks are two of the most important positions in Ralph's system, we have had no real width I can't see a real change if at least one of them is changed. But at least we can't be any worse, can we? I suppose a crappy goal from a throw in was to be expected!
I'd be taking off Vest, Peh and Romeu at half time .... Stephens, KWP and Armstrong on. Move Smallbone alongside JWP.
Having done both, lining is a different game to refereeing. Besides, when you reach a certain level you have to choose whether you're going to line or referee at elite level.
You cant have everything . Rest some of the squad and risk getting beaten , then bring on subs to try and win this game and risk losing the next one . ffs .
Some of the blokes made the wrong choice. She would be great as pioneer for women, but if it’s a matter of choice, maybe she wouldn’t welcome the attention.
