v Southampton (a) - 16/12/23

[Exiled_Rover]

This ref needs to book S. Armstrong for diving.

[moerpho]

We got off cheap there. That was a penalty.

[Miller11]

Hill and Brittain horror-show down our right hand side.

Brittain should be right back and Hill centre half with AN Other (good player) in Brittain's place farther forward

Hill shouldn't be playing as a fullback, he should be in the middle.

Never in a million years. He's thrown himself to the ground at every opportunity today.

[Exiled_Rover]

Yeah, that's been coming.

JDT has got it all wrong today. He's invited Southampton on all game - they were going to score eventually.

[doctorryan]

That should have been a goal kick.

[Groundhog]

Carter was pulling his shirt was madness but Armstrong made such a meal of it. They're a mardy lot this lot.

1-0 Southampton .. game over 

[moerpho]

1-0. Still possible I guess…

[duckson]

Shit defending, really soft goal. 

[AllRoverAsia]

Pathetic. Garbage.

[booth]

Looked like a foul corner to me, it wasn't even on the line, no one checking.

But shit defending.

Might have to actually put a striker on and attack in the second half.

They have a dodgy keeper, it's baffling we've just been content to sit back and let them attack us.

[CambridgeRover]

Keeper didnt cover himself in glory then

[Miller11]

Brittain and Moran off for Travis and Ennis if we want to attempt to salvage something here.

[yankfan]

A Wharton wrong side there, but how can the ball not be cleared out. Allowing a player to score from 1 yard out with his knee is unacceptable. Someone should get a head to it. 

[BankEnd Rover]

Watched all that first half and what a horror show…I’ve been on the fence with Moran despite some of his better games but he is, yet again, having another shocker. Not strong enough, gives the ball away too much, doesn’t press…I’d sub him off…o wait

[cesus]

I will never for the life of me know how a goalkeeper can be on the wrong side of the opponent off a corner. Jeeez!

Putting Travis on is surrender, he is crp

Moran has been poor today.  I'm surprised he's on the pitch after midweeks performance.

[AllRoverAsia]

Luckily I watched Ipswich v Norwich earlier so got some decent football viewing in to compensate for this utter dog shit.

He doesn’t shirk tackles and isn’t on a booking though.
