[Albion] Saints at home was...

From 2-0 to failing to win at home = 2 dropped.

Predictable response. How can anyone think it was not two dropped?

2 points dropped. However, for me it was an excellent game. Two sides going for it in what was essentially a 'Dead Rubber'. Saints were up to their old tricks but they played some good stuff too. Our new midfield did well to keep a grip on things. It was only JW-P that kept them in in it. I can't remember too many other real threats other than Evan's air shot. A very entertaining end-of-season match. Worth every penny to see Mwepu and Caciedo ever impressing.
I missed three of the goals (don't ask) so all I saw was 1-0 Stains. Foot like a traction engine. So one point gained for me.

Well quite. Galling too to see Pascal Gross's "winning" goal ruled out by the width of his knee, or whatever it was.

This is a non-poll. How can it be a point gained after blowing a 2 goal lead and watching them get dicked 3-0 by Burnley on Thursday?

We totally dominated the first half and out-played the Stains with some nice football, being 2-0 up close to half time. Then give away a cheap free kick which they score from. Second half we concede another flukey long range strike and then have a goal disallowed for being a millimetre offside. Definitely two points lost, partly down to bad luck and partly down to throwing it away.
They beat Wolves yesterday as well. We've got no excuse to not go there on Saturday and get a point to cement our place in the history books.

tinky ****in winky
there was nothing in it, millimetres in fact , literally. that lino was a disgrace , Wellbeck , March , Cucurella and Mwepu all fouled and waved away by him ....i read somewhere he's a palace fan.

I could see us losing that after 10 mins of the second half, I was pleased to get away with a point by the end as the officials were determined not to let us win. Saints were allowed to cheat and also played well once they equalised
Where’s the option for two points lost and a point gained and FFS Webster?

Southampton wanted it every bit as much as us, the draw was a fair result in the end. One point gained

Point GAINED. GPott and the team’s confidence is shot at home. They just don’t know how to win at the Amex.

Not seen such Bravery!
2 points dropped.
We really, really need another long awaited Amex Win.

How soon is now?
We looked a different team after the Livramento injury, and whilst we scored another(albeit an OG that Welbeck was hopefully going to get in the end of) we capitulated for around 25 mins. I thought we were going to lose at 2-2, but we got back into it eventually. It was a good game, that could have been great if not for some iffy officiating. My first thought after the free kick that got Saints first was ‘why did you let it bounce’, but on seeing it last night on MOTD, it looks like it’s too far from Dunk, and then they just got in each other’s way…
Much as I saw it, I do wonder if Dunk or Duffy a few years ago would have gone for that ball and cleared it from danger, and taken 2 other players out as well!. Regardless, we should never have conceded from that free kick, poor defensive wall and keeping.
