Match Day Thread Saints vs Turkeyham Hotsprouts - Dec 28, 15:00

Does Martin Atkinson get our Man of the Match award?

 

Basically the opposite of what he says comes true.

 

Spurs fans going ballistic on BBC comments page. Saints parked the bus, referee totally biased against Spurs, VAR totally biased against Spurs, Ali was and is a waste of space, Conte picked wrong players. Spurs won 3-1. Apart from that they enjoyed the match.

 

Whenever he is pleased or disappointed with something, and proclaims it on here, the opposite will come true. It's a 100% failsafe guarantee. Like a dishwasher.

He was delighted that Hooper had been taken off this game, and the magnificent Anthony Tottenham Taylor was given it.

 

Nice to know they didn’t watch the first hour of the match …

 

Well said. We are all in this together as Saints fans, whatever our preferences of player/ manager are

 

Spurs have had an opposition player sent off in their last three games.

But yeah, life’s sooo unfair.

 

Just, big Frazer for me. Very Impressed how quickly he played sweeper in first half, excellent

 

That's the one. I thought that was a goal from the other end.

 

I do agree,but I my day,you just jump up and head the next one, what is it with modern l am not very tough man

 

This

 

I know VAR has its critics, but it really helped provide one of the most amusing moments at St Mary's in 2021. The moment when that goal was ruled out after the celebrations and the flare chucked onto the pitch will live a long time in my memory.

 

Heroic.

 

I’m guessing howls of derision from away fans and loud celebrations from home ones ?

 

Got a feeling, big Frazer was kicking it there on purpose. Waste a bit of time and allow us to organise. How often have we seen before a keeper kick it to the centre circle and in less than ten seconds it is in.our net

 

I couldn't see the Spurs fans with all the smoke from the flare! the flare was the key. It just made the whole thing hilarious! And the fact it was Spurs helped too.

 

BTW, I don't need a reward for the draw, just don't mention the £100 if any of you meet Mrs No7 lol

 

I did wonder if that was the case.

 

Everyone was great today apart from Salisu. JWP looks back to his best, KWP was great, Perraud solid, Jan had his best game for ages, Diallo immense, Adam worked bloody hard on the left, Shane provided an outlet until he went off and worked his socks off. Game wasn't really ideal for Stuey in the 2nd half but he looked good in the first. And big Fraser was immense in goal. Valery MOTM for me. That was a real gutsy performance from him and the whole team.

 

Felt like he was trying to reach Broja who was hanging around in that area but it didn’t quite click, didn’t notice him doing that much prior to Broja coming on.

In fact he released a cracking early ball in the first half, the kind you basically never see as a Saints fan usually.
