Great first 30 minutes but fell apart after the penalty miss and poor in second half with no efforts on target and Utd controlling the game.
Ramsdale did well but Tyling really stood out. Great to see Ross Stewart back on the pitch. I have high hopes for him.
Walker-Peters was caught up field too often and we were outnumbered too often at the back.
Tactics seemed different partly as Ramsdale kicks long far more often and we tried to get some through balls but it all rather petered out
Felt the sending off was harsh at the time and partly brought on by the rolling around of the attacker but seeing the replay of it can have no complaints as foot was unnecessarily high and studs up.
Everton on Tuesday gives a good chance for experimenting a bit. Love to see Stewart start.

Great day out. Tough game with few chances but great defensive performance.
Saints support was superb throughout.
Some great performances throughout the team. We wanted it more than Leeds and it showed. |

A well deserved win. Picked our strongest side which was the right thing to do. Close game but we were in some degree of control throughout. Right to get Manning off before he got sent off. Stephen's badly at fault for their goal and fortunate not to concede a penalty. Downes was great and McCarthy did well in goal. Nothing really on the game but certainly raises the optimism a bit. |

Really disappointing against an injury hit Cardiff side. Missed so many chances again. Sums up our season, dominate games but can’t finish teams off and pay the price. Wicked deflection for their winner, can’t blame McCarthyism for the goals.
Huge loss to see Armstrong looking to be ruled out for the rest of the season.
Despite missing a hatful of chances I thought we didn’t play well and failed to control the game.
The play offs it is then. |

Great win. First half performance was great and comfortable in the second. Could have been more. Given Preston are a good side and the pressure to win this game it was an excellent result. A change of keeper for the rest of the season is worrying though. |

We made hard work of it again but great to win it so late on. Watched in Portugal whilst on holiday thanks to Saints Player. If we can beat Preston it sets up an interesting last few games. I'll be at Cardiff and then Leicester with my Leicester supporting son in law. Play offs still look most likely but you never know. Beat WBA again then Leeds or Norwich at Wembley. Rode our luck a bit today but came strong at the end. |

Listened to Radio Solent commentary. Sounded an awful game with some very poor performances. An away point but all seemed very slow and pedestrian. Adam Armstrong and Kyle Walker Peters in particular both had poor games. |

Once again we dominate the match, play some great football and then collapse. Very unfortunate to lose but once Ipswich equalised you could sense our heads drop in what was a 'must win' match. Like Saturday and many other games we controlled the game and looked solid but then fell apart. I thought the sending off was very harsh. I think there was a covering defender. We now coast to the play offs and rotate the squad I guess. WBA v Southampton looks nailed on now. Beaten them twice this season but counts for nothing now |

After missing so many great chances it felt inevitable that we'd concede right at the end. Should have won comfortably. The play off beckons unless we can somehow win the matches at Ipswich, Leicester and Leeds. I can see us doing OK in these matches but fear we'll continue to drop other points elsewhere. |

What a great game to watch. Long drive from Somerset through lots of snow but well worth it. Really engrossing 90 minutes. Saints showed a huge amount of character to win. The first two Birmingham goals were such quick breaks and terrific finishes. I was in line with both of them and they were unstoppable. Armstrong’s goal was great. Superb flick by Adams and a great ball from Brooks. All a bit chaotic in the first half but wrestled back control aided by the sending off. Two good goals saw us in the lead for the first time but all credit to Birmingham to come back again with ten men. Eventually they tired as we passed the ball really well and wore them down. Deserved the 96th minute winner after all the pressure. 78% possession, 25 shots, 10 on target and 16 corners to 6 was a fair reflection of a hard won victory. With Leicester losing and Leeds drawing not a bad day! Subs all contributed to the win. Let’s please not mess up the next two home games. |

Did well but failure to take good chances cost us dearly. Had we played a slightly stronger side we could have seen a different outcome but I guess we have to focus on the league. Saturday at Birmingham will be tough. |

Should have been a second yellow for the Millwall player for an awful tackle but ref completely bottled it. I thought the ref was very poor. 5 mins injury time after loads of subs, a number of injuries and blatant time wasting was a joke. |

Oh dear that was poor. Bazunu just had to punch that cross away. A really poor error. He was far too timid. Terrible time to concede the penalty. Bednarek said it hit his face but from the brief highlight I saw on my phone it looked a penalty. The second half was the biggest disappointment. Too slow and predictable. 81% possession but created very little and never really looked like saving it. Losing Fraser was a big blow. Edozie saw a lot of the ball but flattered to receive with crossing not good enough. I'm afraid it looks odds on the lottery of the play offs though we need to pick up results to guarantee a play off place. The super computer (before today's result) fed in all the prediction stats and has us finishing 7th. We need to sort ourselves out. We are really not ready for the Premiership but if we miss out this season we will lose much of our squad I fear. |

Well beaten by the better side tonight. Aribo should have started over Rothwell and Adams over Mara. Hull were always going to be tough should have played our best side. Hull played us at our own game. Bazunu struggled with clearances under pressure. Some poor passing again as at Bristol City. Looks like the play offs beckon. With Rotheri equalising in the 94th min at Ipswich only to lose in the 95th min it wasn't a good night. The momentum feels like it has swung behind Leeds and Ipswich but it could swing back again. |
