    Is that like how Plymouth were "well on top"? I'm guessing so.

    Were they? I know my stream cut out a few times but perhaps I was watching a different game!

    Absolutely, some fans will not enjoy a game unless it's a 5-0 annihilation and then Saints will 'have taken their foot off the gas and should have won 10-0' :emoticon-0102-bigsm

    I do sometimes wonder if you're watching the same game as the rest of us. <laugh>

    Nah they weren't. They probably merited a draw on their performance but if you don't take your chances you get punished. Speaking of which that was some finish by Adam. Fraser also looked bright.

    Shea Charles and Flynn Downes can certainly kick a pig skin around to a good standard.

    Magic just likes to be all edgy and controversial.

    On top of some other good performances mentioned, please let us remember the saves from Bazunu that stopped us going behind a couple of times.

    Shout out for Bazunu. He was really good today.

    Only 4 yellow cards. Are we getting soft?

    I’ve always said what a fine keeper he is. And how Adam Armstrong is a vital asset to the club.

    Russell Martin deserves a lot of credit for getting through the games before the window shuts unbeaten with 10/12pts - especially considering all the background noise he’s had to contend with, a great start. Long may it continue <applause>

    Enjoyed that, asides from riding our luck a bit and conceding another quick goal. Fraser a real threat, Adarma great again. So happy for Edozie to get a goal, think he's maturing as a player. Looked leggy towards the end. Did he pick up an injury? Downes is class.

    Was Jack's injury bad? Didn't see it.

    You can just tell when a player has had a lot of years' instruction with a Premier League manager and team mates.

    He was making some great runs that others just couldn't read in time, or at all.
