Match Day Thread Boro v Saints - Sat 23rd Sep - 1500

[......loading......]

They have been well on top the last 15. I think we look very poor. I still don’t understand how we don’t dominate the ball in our dominate the ball strategy.

 

[West Kent Saint]

Just in time to see a Holgate mistake. ****ing brilliant.

 

[Giboman]

Well deserved for boro. Our defending is woeful

 

[hotbovril]

Not like us to gift the ball to the opposition in a dangerous place.....

 

[Brinkworth Saint]

But awful from Holgate. Just fell asleep there.

No clean sheet.

Ah well back to the pool and sunbed then.

 

[SaintElliot]

Yet another mistake leads to another goal. Its maddening.

Well deserved for boro. Our defending is woeful

Unfortunately, I thought we looked solid until then

I think it is our midfield that is woeful. We just can’t keep the ball without working it back to the keeper.

I don’t know what planet Dean Hammond is on in the commentary.

Singing saints praises but I think boro have been the better side by far tbh

 

[st_brendy]

I have zero sympathy. If you're stupid enough to play Holgate, you can't be surprised when he makes a mistake.

HT: Boro 1-1 Saints

This is really not good enough if Middlesbrough are on top of us in their current form.

This could easily end up becoming a 5+ game losing streak and with our aims we shouldn’t be losing many more than that all season…

I don’t care about mistakes if we are dominating and the strategy is working. But we aren’t and it isn’t.

 

[Che’s Godlike Thighs]

Last minute defensive error. F*ck me.

Have we got anyone who can talk on the pitch?

 

[Osvaldorama]

We aren’t creating anywhere near enough chances to make these suicide tactics worth it.

 

[Che’s Godlike Thighs]

Lovely goal we scored but otherwise creating nothing. Against bottom of the table.

 

[- Doing The Lambert Walk]

Things that made that goal avoidable:

1. Holgate was not a good choice of recipient to receive the ball
2. Holgate was sleeping on where the pressure was going to come from
3. Somebody could've let him know with a shout to get it away

 

[tomw24]

****ing fed up with this. If we can't dominate a match against Middlesbrough then we really are ****ed. We are a total ****show under Martin.

How on earth did Holgate play consistently in the Premier league when he's not even good enough for this level?
