SAINTS v Reading: Match Thread

Are you drunk

 

Opposition call Lambert a lump, I can tell you Jason Roberts is the definition of a lump.

 

keep the faith peeps, its always darkest before the dawn, and other cliched sheidt!

 

Arrogant bastard too! Unlike our Rickie.

 

I know. Devo.

 

Typsy with a little bit of Upset in there too..

 

How did Jason Roberts get MOTM?! He played alright but was never MOTM!

 

Scoring.. and bringing the reading team in to play i suspect as we totally controlled it.

 

I thought Frederici would get it

 

Sometimes you just have to admit the best team won. Reading know how to win home and away. They did it without dirty play or cheating. They took a chance with Le Fondre and Roberts and are benefitting. Beating Leeds, Brighton and Saints isn't luck. We will have to take it on the chin

 

Yeah, had to go to the winning team - Frederici would have been a good shout and so would the match winner, whose name I can't bring myself to mention..

 

I think he probably deserves it after keeping 11 out of 12 on target shots out.

 

Most of the attempts were soft.. and straite at him. TBF

 

Not all, he had a couple where he did very well. He probably would have saved Lambert's goal had it not deflected.

 

I think we blew a few chances too, like Hooiveld's header in the first half.

 

Lallanas Deflection was a brilliant save as was lamberts bullet header.

 

Very disappointed. Thought we would do it with the way we started the game, but we had 19 attempts, 12 on target and only scored 1. They are good enough to score and have a good defence. If we play as well as we did and make all these chances, we will win our remaining games, starting with P'boro. Going to go to the wire.

 

Don't worry Fonte only has Bennett and Taylor against him next match

 

Shame we couldn't convert our chances into goals. Not the first time that's happened. Reading were clinical and we weren't. Once we pulled back to 1-1 I thought we would go on and score a few.

Overall, plenty of positives but we need to start taking our chances- especially if we go up!

 

It shows now at this end of the season it is not about the way we play or the performance it's all about the result.
I was worried about this game as I was the Blackpool game and the Pompey game.
We need to grind out a result like Reading have been doing since their Peterborough defeat.
Lessons to be learnt again and we fans need to realise. We will not breeze this league.
Why is it always so hard as a Saints fan. My heart won't stand this.
