I have been thinking about Tony Springett
He wants to be a winger, but he doesn't have the pace or the trickery. He doesn't seem to be a creative maverick or a metronomic passer. I'm not sure what he does have.
TBH. based on recent games, he may be better reinventing himself as a full back

Connor highlights Armstrong has "only" missed 7 out of 32 penalties.
That's only 78% scoring rate.
Penalties have an xG of 0.9. So you'd expect decent penalty takers to be at or around 90%

I must confess, I'm having a huge amount of enjoyment reading the pre-match comments on a Saints fan forum about how rubbish we are 😁

I thought Makama was great, but I disagree about MotM. I thought Wright was outstanding - control and creativity. But they always favour the guy that puts it in the net

We deserved that
I dislike how Sky folks are talking about fight and grit - we won because we *played* better than Saints

Fisher gets his traditional yellow card of course.
Commentator says he's only had five this season, which surprises me given how he plays.

It's taken longer than we needed to bed in, but on the evidence of the last four games I wouldn't swap Mattson for Nunez in a million years

Honestly couldn't see a foul there. But Makama's second was hand ball, so all's fair I guess

Makama is stinking the place out tonight, sadly.
He's being required to play mostly in midfield and that's just not his game

Tbh I'm so proud of the team and the vastly improved performance, and I always expected a defeat. But there's still time to pinch something

Holding your opponent with two hands right around them should surely be an automatic yellow? It's not an accidental trip or knock, it's a deliberate professional foul.

Brilliant defending. Proper commitment from Kellen and Big Vlad

Maybe it was soft, but I actually don't understand why that wasn't a penalty.
Defender put his leg between Sarge and the ball, didn't make the tackle, and Sarge fell.
Pen surely?

Pink Un seems to think Clement has revolutionised this team over night.
Sure, confidence is back, but until Makama's goal against Oxford, they were shaky as hell. And they had a lot of good play in the last few games, without the necessary luck.
Results-based revisionism.

I was briefly worried about my local hard-up middle-englanders who are going to be brought to destitution by new taxes and found this 7 bedroom, 5 bathroom, almost 11,000 sq ft hovel, in Rotherham WITH A GIANT HULK IN THE FRONT YARD JESUS CHRIST MAN I KNOW TASTE IS A RARE COMMODITY BUT FUCK ME DEAD
