That is one fucked up formation - what is it, 3-2-2-2-1? Or 5-2-3? 5-2-2-1? I’ve no idea…
I reckon good ol’fashioned 4-4-2 against WBA, dropping our goal scoring CB because I seem to like dropping people who score (we don’t need any of that funny stuff round here thanks)
Oh my goodness. After a shit day at work I come on here for a bit of RnR only to find that we’ve wandered back to the dark side of cryptic match threads. I was contemplating withdrawing my huffy resignation of yesterday but not now. We’ll be back to our losing ways as a result. Mark my words.
Looking forward to a decent away day trip though. I did smile to myself when I read the club site report about Gaby O’Dean being doubtful for Saturday … especially after his scintillating and dynamic contribution to last night’s game !
My head thinks this will be another turgid 1 all but I’m digging out the lucky pants in hope for a decent win.
Anyone else heard that the real reason we didn’t sign that quincy fella was that he wasn’t prepared to play centre mid?
I think we’ll pass the ball around nicely at the back up to and including one of our 6 central midfielders but struggle beyond that. If we by chance can get Jack Stephens firing we may go a goal up before taking off an attacker for another midfielder.
Ralph and Les will take to the pitch at full time banjos in hand for the first performance of their explanatory single “Its all down to Virgil”.
The last time I was in the sheep pen which doubles as the area under the away end, it was 2005 and we were in the bottom three. WBA were in awful form, it was February again and we needed a win. Saints battered them but missed a ton of chances and it finished 0-0.
We know how that season turned out, so I am staying well away this year. It has to be different tomorrow.
