Match Day Thread Northampton Town vs Saints - Tuesday, August 12 - 19:45 KO

We are not getting the cream of the refs

 

On the way, Texel Skuumkoppe

 

So after a spritely 5 mins ans we return to type



EDIT: triple change on

 

or fiddle about a bit more

 

Dreadful debut for Downs. Glad he’s off; was painful watching him.

Looks like we will need Stewart to stay fit or we’re screwed.

 

I'll give it a go in a mo.

 

It’s unfortunate.


Last weekend’s will have been too worried about being named and blamed on Netflix if he gave decisions against Wrexham.


Next week’s I imagine will be keen to impress Ed Shearan in the hope that helps promote him to be a Premier League ref




And I imagine tonight’s got fast tracked due to having a “cool” name

 

Shame. Still if Stewart comes good that will be a silver lining.

 

Is archer playing tonight?

 

Got the assist for Fernandes’ goal

 

As much as I hated Russball I'm not entirely sure Stills tactics of smashing long balls to absolutely no one is an upgrade

 

Criticising a players performance is justified, but the people saying "Downs is a bust" clearly never watched Pelle or Manes first 3 months in a Saints shirt...

 

Will, please due some passing practice tomorrow

 

I refuse to believe Archer and BBD get paid to play football.

 

I thought Pelle started scoring quite quickly. He had 2bin the 8.0 vs Sunderland, I thought that was September. My memory is he was really good first season to Han, but then slowed up. Maybe my memory is not so good

 

Fraser looks lively.

 

That's how I remember it as well. He didn't score in his first couple of games, hit a brace away at Millwall in the cup early doors and away he went

Mane took till christmas time to look half decent. I remember that Sheffield United game, he was dreadful

 

He did. We all feared he was going to be a big lump but he started scoring early.

 

I agree, maybe we both remember wrong. Lol

 

I am with you guys. I thought he was good pretty much straight off.
