Saints to be stung into action by the Hornets?

Watford at their gaff next Saturday (13th January). Luckily for Saints it’s not a Friday otherwise.

With a comfortable demolition of Fulham under their belts will the team rise to the occasion or will the Hornets swarm all over us (as they did at St Marys all those months ago).

Will Marco Silva show Mr Reed that he was wrong not to be considered for the St Marys hotseat? WIll MoPo MKII put out an attacking team? Will the players follow his instructions?

I’m going for a 1-0 defensive Saints win with JW-P smashing in from 2 yards out.

Saints playing out of earshot of the majority of our dumbass support - I shall concur with 1-0 to the Saints.

I also predict a fiver web meltdown regarding “tactics” and Substitutions including the words / phrases:

Inept

Clueless

too big a step

not Premier league ready

no plan B (although tbf our fans thought Poch didnt have one of those)

cautious

reactive

relegation

Les / ralph are cunts

2-0 Watford, the problems are still there and the manager is one of them.

Same shit, different day.

Indeed, the season continues in full on shite continuity…

And including sleepwalking towards relegation, he doesn’t know what he is doing, what have the Chinese said and it all down to Eric Black.

Any thoughts about the Tom Williams article Barry?

Haven’t read anything, link it and I’ll pass an opinion on the document.

On plus side there’s only one team in worse current form than Watford. On minus side, it’s Us.

1-1

They are on the traditional post Christmas Silva slide which is reportedly not as much fun as it sounds. Its us under Wotte Vs last year’s post-Christmas Hull. A super classico!

I’m going for a plucky 0:1 win for us - goal by our in form newly promoted striker JWP and with us then sitting deeper and deeper as the game wears on, along with incomprehensible substitutions like Gabbiadini coming on in the 89th minute followed by 1min of injury time…

You will find it in the Saints Mangers Substitutions thread Barry. I think you will find it interesting.

With an upcoming 4th round FA Cup tie against the Hornets this is going to be interesting or maybe it won’t…

Can’t we just roll both games into one? Might be less painful that way.

We are on a roll away win followed by another 0- 2 to Saints another clean sheet

Bazza wetting himself that due to results going our way we keep the manager for longer.

One to please @barry-sanchez :lou_lol:

46 seconds in… Gabby has a face like a smacked arse and then hits the camera away. That pretty much sums up playing second fiddle to Shane Long, for me.

“…46 seconds in… Gabby has a face like a smacked arse…”

I think they all go on a special course. VVD, Bert Rand, Boufal and Redmond are all guilty of looking as miserable as fuck at times recently.
