Really annoyed by that result. We get 6 points we werent expecting then throw away two that we should be guaranteed to to get. Logically we are ahead by 4 points but it doesn’t feel like it. At least it wasn’t a Boro type game were we lose after leading.
Just one of those games. Their keeper pulled of 3 or 4 incredible saves. Yes, we should have been more positive in the second half, but that's the Championship. Weak sides will park the bus. We really need to learn how to deal with it.
My god. A saints fan has a bit of confidence and you call him out. A saints fan feels nervous about a score and you call him out. Your horse is very high, my liege!
Good teams kill off games. This is not just how the Championship works. This team didn't have a single away point all season. If we are going by "this is how the Championship works" then EVERYBODY beats Rotherham at home!
I was hoping that my first post on this thread would be firmly put to bed by a big win, but we have the killer instinct of a pink blancmange. Had enough chances to wipe out our negative GD and move into the top 6, but missed out, in part to an inspired goalkeeping performance, but also due to the substitutions. Taking Sulemana and Stuart off at the same time took away a lot of our attacking threat and I would have preferred Che to go off ahead of Adarma. Oh well, 2 weeks off.
Genuinely feels like a defeat. Very frustrating. No disrespect to Rotherham, bur you cannot he dropping points at home to them and be serious about going up.
Sunderland, Middlesbrough, Rotherham. When your season is bad and you need a result, who you gunna call, Southampton!
Thing is we played superbly first half. Very unfortunate not to be more than 1-0 up. They packed their defence after 30 minutes. Second half we weren't urgent enough - that's the only mistake we made. The fact that they scored was a joke. Come on. They were dreadful. You just get these games unfortunately from time to time. We've rode our luck at other times, and here we didn't get any.
There's only so much he can do. He isn't on the pitch. All he can do is choose the right players to get the job done. We were all content with the team he picked today.
Our players seriously need to practice shooting from outside the area, with the ball in the air or bouncing etc. Lost count today how many shots we had from outside the box that ended up in row Z. It's like our players just lose all sense of physics when the ball bounces towards them on the edge of the box. Horrendous.
