The Round Ball Game - II

[johncorrigan]

We've got Livingston on their plastic monstrosity today, but this is the kind of game the Buddies should be getting points from...and points mean prizes, as we all know! Good luck to the forum teams out there today, whether you need it or not!!!

Ah well, we all need a bit of luck, JC.

A really good afternoon's entertainment at SMS today. Saints started very sloppily , and conceded early to a fine strike from James, who looks as though he could be a great signing, despite a couple of fluffed lines.

Despite the setback, Saints , missing two important players in Bertrand and Redmond ,fought back really well and were well in charge, if still behind, at the break. The second half unfolded with more Saints pressure, and Adams should have equalised before Vestergaard got us back on terms from a teasing Danso Cross. Danso looks as though he could be an astute signing, looking very composed at LB, and causing problems going forward. Unhappily he got a second yellow for a rash challenge, but so it goes.
The sending off led to a bit of a barrage from United, but Saints held on in relative comfort , to give us that " Draw that feels like a win" feeling.

Hopeless performance from referee Mike " Red Devil" Dean as usual, and it has to be said that United are way behind city and Liverpool right now. Rashford was anonymous, but the two new lads will help them. And Pogba has that rare talent of annoying both his own and the oppositions fans !!

Good day out, happy Rabbits in the Saints hutch tonight.

No such luck for the Paisley Saints though

Another bad day for the Owls - well done Hangers and County both away winners in a couple of Div 4 OB matches.

Strangely it our centrebacks (SB acquisitions) were part of the Owls defeat today.

How odd to credit Trent-Alex's homage to Ronaldhino-Japan-2002 (our first against Burnley) as an own goal.....

Good result at SMS, ts. My brother was at the game yesterday and says the pitch should be dug up...I assume he's not talking about the Buddies' pitch, but the abomination that is Livingston's bouncy plastic effort. He says it's like watching football being played with a large super-ball. Saints lose two on the bounce. Disappointing result. Went to the cinema to forget.

You just never know !

The conference table always makes for odd reading with its mix of league old boys, upstart wannabees ( Eastleigh !) and so on.

Great to see the forum teams doing well, sad to see Notts down there, and I really think it should be 3 up and 3 down to/from L2

Or maybe this season 3 up 2 down post Bury!
