Matchday Thread Southampton v PNE - 16/04/24 - KO:8PM - Championship

[wld]

Has something happened that justifies Lowe keep complaining?

 

[northender2]

It’s not the defence, it’s the front two who can’t hold it up who are causing us problems

I dont think Riis & Osmajic can play up front together, they both need a Keane type of player up there with them

 

[Drunks]

Started with Riis with a lazy flick to give away possession. Then it was just rank bad soft defending.
I can't blame Lowe here, the squad is pathetically thin although our tactics burn players out as they are forever chasing the ball.
Blame the board for no incomings in Jan, especially leaving us with Potts as the only player at RWB.
RIDSDALE OUT!!

Yes someone got his trainers dirty

 

[Gordon Bennett]

That was almost embarrassing for Freddie

 

[Hoz ']

Why play this midget on the right side in the first place. you know he is frustrated!

 

[Dick Dastardly]

Holmes needs to play further forward and leave Adam Armstrong to Storey

 

[Naughton's moustache]

What is our defence plan? If it's zonal then scrap it as opposition players always in space with no pressure to decide where to play the ball

Thats been the case for much of the season

 

[Damp Squib]

Not criticising any of the lads out there tonight.

This is the end result of indecision. We didn’t either back the manager in January or hire a new manager and back them. This squad is a wing back and a proper central defender shy of being able to compete. We could offer millions for Cannon apparently, but less than six months later we were being told FFP forced our hand to justify the nothingness.

Is Riis carrying a knock? Moving like an oil tanker and doesn’t look to bothered

Had a sprint just then.

He has his pick of bigger clubs in the summer

 

[Hoz ']

I can just see Evans coming on in the 2nd half to hold the ball upfield

 

[Double J]

Its not lack of effort this.

Just lack of quality.

Miracle we have the points tally we do.

 

[Regardless]

Not sure Holmes really pulled their lad back. Just put his arm across him and their player threw himself to the floor, I think.

 

[Preston Lad]

Game over

 

[raefil]

2-0

 

[beagleman]

Oh just fuck right off.

 

[SMURF]

so so easy

 

[llanroc]

I think it’s fair to say that Holmes isn’t the answer to our wingback problem.

 

[Soapy]

Lol
