MrBored Posted July 19, 2012 Report Posted July 19, 2012 Hmmm that gives us a very big hill to get over next week. Quote
Pop Posted July 19, 2012 Report Posted July 19, 2012 Second leg do-able do you think? I think so... just. Showed at the end that they have some vulnerabilities. Think we need to have a go at them though. Quote
St Mikey Posted July 19, 2012 Report Posted July 19, 2012 So unlucky. 2 feckin deflected goals for them. They are a better team but I'm glad it stayed at 2-0 as we have a real chance next week. Their keeper wants to come for everything. I hope Tade is fit for next week, him and Nige up front. COYS Quote
Jimmy Wallace Posted July 19, 2012 Report Posted July 19, 2012 Just watched on really dodgy stream in pub in Suffolk. Getting some very strange looks! Disappointing result. Let's hope Cap'n Dave is back for next week. Quote
lampshade Posted July 19, 2012 Report Posted July 19, 2012 Well done lads ! You just never know come on saints. Quote
Guest Harry Curran's Love child Posted July 19, 2012 Report Posted July 19, 2012 A fair and decent result in my opinion. Defended well as a team. Thought Davidson got stuck right in in the 2nd half and we looked dangerous with two up top. Their defence looks slightly suspect when running at them and their keeper is absolutely rank rotten so it's still to play for next week. It would take a big performance from us but one we are capable of. Well done lads. Quote
saintj Posted July 19, 2012 Report Posted July 19, 2012 Why so negative? I think we can beat them in Perth, they didn't look any better than Celtic to me. They've got some decent players but they are no great shakes. Quote
newyear'sday97 Posted July 19, 2012 Report Posted July 19, 2012 We need to score the first goal next week - no reason we can't do that though:D Quote
canuck_saint Posted July 19, 2012 Report Posted July 19, 2012 technically good but no guile - but definitely not over yet. Performance of the night has to go to the turkish commentators who mentioned us far more than we'd get on scottish tv. obv done their homework too, definite mentions of sir alex ferguson and monaco. chick young take note.

auld reekie saint Posted July 19, 2012 Report Posted July 19, 2012 I think we did okay. I would have started with Ando. Hasselbank looked good when he came on. For all their possesion they didn't create too much. Difficult next week but at least the game is still alive. Quote
Linky Posted July 19, 2012 Report Posted July 19, 2012 They weren't as good as I thought they'd be, but we gave them too much respect. Good defensive work, but Hasselbaink should have been playing from the start. We are really missing Jody in the middle, but I think Hasselbaink can make up for the loss of Sandaza if he's played with a proper striker. Quote
Havana Saint Posted July 19, 2012 Report Posted July 19, 2012 Not over at all. If we have right go at them we can create some real history. They are not a bad side, but I said in previous posts when watching them earlier their midfield is quite poor and their goalie is out washing windaes whenever possible. Hasselbaink was brilliant. Well played Saints more self belief and I predict a 3-0 victory in Perth. Quote
Denzil Posted July 19, 2012 Report Posted July 19, 2012 I really thought they would be a much better side than they were, and there are clear weaknesses to exploit. With two up top next week in Perth (and hopefully it's pishin wi rain and freezin) it could be a whole different ball game. Quote
sixties saintee Posted July 19, 2012 Report Posted July 19, 2012 Thought we were unlucky 2 deflections, as saintj says we can beat them in Perth Quote
Cagey Posted July 19, 2012 Report Posted July 19, 2012 Still not out of it.Trip to Marseille may still be on. Never watched it ,so don`t know how good or bad we were but I think we would have been happy with a 2-0 deficit before going to a place like Turkey against a no bad team in extreme heat with little aclimatation. Quote
Shibbydoo Posted July 19, 2012 Report Posted July 19, 2012 special mention to the BBC who don't even have the game mentioned as happening! Quote

Thing is.........they were and are a pretty average team. Quote

Shibbydoo Posted July 19, 2012 Report Posted July 19, 2012 Aye, feck their licence fee pretty bad!!! don't wana get onto the whole West coast shit, but 3 Tayside teams in SPL - i think we win!!! Quote
Coltrane Posted July 19, 2012 Report Posted July 19, 2012 Its only half time....lets get em at home... Quote
Vicky Pendleton's Saddle Posted July 19, 2012 Report Posted July 19, 2012 Heids up boys 'n' girls! The tie is still alive, and at 2-0 down with a lot of time left it could easily have drifted well away from us. They are full of pace and catching us on the break is a concern. However, an early goal as mentioned and who knows? What it does need is a big support. More importantly, some NOISE! Also, nae moanin'. Right? COYS!!! Quote
Cagey Posted July 19, 2012 Report Posted July 19, 2012 Aye, feck their licence fee yeah,surprised they didn`t have newco v Airdrie under 19s on at the weekend.Sorry off topic. Quote
