How the fuck did that happen???

Holgate howler
1-1

Fuck sake.

Holgate gets closed down, ball falls to McGree who slots one inside the near part from outside the box.

Adam Armstrong, it was a well worked goal to be fair. Probably against the run of play, certainly since we scored we have been living dangerously, giving the ball away, goalmouth scrambles clearing off the line etc.
Stop press, Middlesborough have just equalized, Holgate robbed whilst daydreaming, handed it to them on a plate. My Evertonian mates werenā€™t wrong, he is a fucking liability.

Sounds like he was caught being brave again.

Iā€™m currently baking a bran loaf at least thatā€™ll create a more useful sort of shit.

GREAT SAVE!

Middlesbrough 2-1 Southampton

By the Southampton goalkeeper Gavin Bazunu who keeps the visitors in the game.

Another mistake by Saints at the back gives the ball away to Middlesbrough.

But Josh Coburnā€™s strike is brilliantly saved by Bazunu.

Holy shit ā€¦ where do we go from here ? RM looks devoid of ideas. The players look like they donā€™t give a fuck. KWP was the only one today who put in a shift. He must be staggered how far this club has fallen. And quite possibly regretting staying ā€¦

As I said, we will be lucky to finish in the top half.

FULL-TIME

Middlesbrough 2-1 Southampton

Middlesbrough, who were bottom of the Championship before this match, have their first win of the season over a mistake prone Southampton.

Riley McGreeā€™s strike levelled the score just before the break and Jonny Howson got the second from the penalty spot midway through the second half.

Boro probably could have scored a third if it wasnā€™t for Saints keeper Gavin Bazunu who pulled off some brilliant saves.

Itā€™s a long and painful journey home for Southampton who have now lost four in a row and been outscored 12-2 in the process.

I donā€™t want us toā€¦it would give false hope. Weā€™re here until those in suits realise where most of the mistakes are being made.

Only 8 games in and weā€™ve shipped 19 goals :scream:

You canā€™t tell me thatā€™s ok.

This manager needs a rocket up his arse - and pretty much most of the squad too.

Sport Republic have the Fecal Touch. Theyā€™ve taken a steady but unspectacular mid table PL club, thrown lots of money at it and turned it into an absolute shitshow of a parody of a sham of an embarrassment. Unbelievable ineptitude. Appointing a promising but tactically poor manager is the latest example of this. Long season ahead. Wont be long before weā€™re hoping there are 3 shittier teams than us in the league, just to stay up. Fucking Saints.

Just as long as his P45 is attached to the rocket.

Well, Iā€™ve had a pleasant day. Early doors onto the Norwegian Star, then went to get my covid booster on the way home.

Decided against wrestling with a buffering stream just to watch the mighty Saints struggle against bottom of the table Middlesbrough, and went for a nap instead.

With the benefit of hindsight, thatā€™s looking like a pretty sound decision.
