Match Day Thread Saints v Diiiiiiiiiiiiiirttttttttty Leeds Saturday 13th August 3pm

With all the issues people were having with IPTV, yesterday, they seem to have sorted out the problem (until next Saturday?).
I have had Sky Sports on for 5+ hours with no problem at all and great picture quality.
Fingers crossed for next weekend.

 

Da Ja Vu? What position was he playing?

 

The real highlight of the match, alas it misses Djenepo’s drag back just prior

 

In the back five

 

I cannot find the Attendance figure for the Leeds game anywhere, it looked pretty full, Just wondering what the Capacilty is now, as they barred seats in certain areas.

 

Dermot says no Red for the Stu challenge, the defender got the ball first, I don't think so but there you go.

 

Dermot is actually a idiot, and clearly blind.

 

He fouled Armstrong and then made contact with the ball as he followed through.

 

Just had my catch up with Leeds fans work colleagues. They all thought we were **** for the first 65 mins and Leeds should’ve been miles ahead. Then thought we were the better team for the last 20 mins or so.

They also said we looked like we were already relegated for the first hour of the game, we were that poor, and definitely would be going down if that was our usual level of performance. Can’t really argue with any of that tbf.

They also won their ****ing bet annoyingly as the bookie they did it with pays out if your team goes 2 goals up, regardless of final result.

 

We should place our bets with a bookies who pays if you go one up even if you lose!

 

I don’t think a bookie like that would stay in business very long

 

Another useless ****ing ref.

Where do they get them from?

Leeds were dirty as always.

I kept looking for Giles and Bremner so many dirty tackles were going in.

 

That's bollocks. I rewatched the game last night. The first half was very even, neither team edged it. In the second we switched off at the back and let Rodrigo in, from that point on we were the more positive side. We had more ball and more intent right through the second half, even before the subs change.

Always difficult to judge live as the emotion gets the better of the brain, especially when you watch your team concede two very soft goals but there wasn't a lot wrong on saturday. 3-5-3 has its merits if the def can cut out the **** and we can be a bit more ruthless in the final third. Saturday also showed how exciting and effective 4222 is though.

 

I’m surprised a bookie that pays when you go 2 up even if you lose does. There’s possibilities there for us. If we start 4222 with the new guys and finish 541 with Theo I think we’re quids in

 

Not sure about that, felt like they were very dominant first half and we were fortunate to go in level when watching live. On Soccer Saturday they said Leeds could’ve been 3 up at half time, I didn’t think it was quite that bad but I would’ve been disappointed if we had gone in 0-0 if the shoe was on the other foot.

Once we swapped formation we were by far the better side. Hopefully we use that from the start against Leicester, hopefully the massive swing wasn’t to do with Leeds being knackered

 

Has the Spanish Badger not realised he has to do another thread?

 

Touch of the mañana syndrome from El Baddo?

 

Esta tarde

 

Enough of this foreign ****ing lingo, I didn't vote Brexit so we would have to put up with bloody French all over the place. Why don't you just post it this evening?

 

Eres muy amable
