Nearly 40 years I’ve watched #SAFC live and not sure I’ve ever seen a more complacent and lazy performance than that

Enough already of this offside bullshit. Do something about it. It’s ruining it.

Will take a lift to Port Vale Sunday if anyone is doing it. Just saying #SAFC

You’ve never even played tenth division Sunday league football if you think that’s a handball. You’d be embarrassed as a defender to claim it.

After the ref’s performance against Fulham, has there ever been more of a “hold my beer moment”?

While hard to say a draw wasn’t a fair result on balance of play, an unacceptable refereeing performance denies as clear a penalty as you’ll see, and a red card.

It’s the sort of team we’d have started the season with so can’t feel too sorry for ourselves. Be great to get a result down there today #SAFC

Well we had a good run with the glorious #SAFC retro stuff.

Black Lonsdale kit hands down WORST we’ve ever had. Remember how disgusted Keane was we had Lonsdale kits?

Newcastle (a) sorted

A match and gig combo tomorrow. Like I’m in my 20s again.

Setting up for a university open event. The image displays a Faculty banner for the media courses.

Ha’way along and see what’s on offer. Setting up a lovely little Open Evening.

The ref needs to compose himself here and not react to this nonsense. It’s a stonewall penalty.

McLean in co comms was desperate to try and persuade himself it wasn’t a foul. Every decision we get he’s making it seem like a controversy of some sort.

Need an attacking player to step up here and show everyone their quality #SAFC

Be good to see him at champ level, see if the hype is real

What a very clear yellow card challenge that was

What a great clearly onside goal that was.

Yeah the reality we need to start facing

Yeah wasn’t like us at all

I also think this Hume thing needs to be put to bed now. I don’t know what’s happening on the training ground (obviously) but it’s not working and limiting us at that end of the pitch.

I thought #SAFC played with a fear I’ve not seen all season at home. As soon as Liverpool scored, they relaxed and started to play a bit, almost like a weight had been lifted. The crowd could sense it all too, really odd.

You should do a video mooching around trying to find them doing their videos, so you can tell them to stop.

Would watch.

Doing some podding this evening, a little bit wrapping up of the Arsenal game and looking ahead to Liverpool.

Any questions, thoughts #SAFC lot?

As much as I’ve ever wanted wanted a #SAFC outgoing loanee to do well.

I also despise us wearing black and our performances in this kit aren’t changing my mind.

Absolute shocker by #SAFC.

Felt like a no brainer to start Geertruida in midfield and that shambolic performance by Hume just makes the call even more bizarre.

Asked a question then completely forgot about the app again

#SAFC lot still use this platform or has novelty fully garned?
