Dark Munster

That's rather generous. If Stewart scores a hat trick in the play off final some here may have to reconsider your Worst Signing of the Season choice!

He's done it before, usually after a string of bad results. The problem is he then reverts back to his beloved plan A (which sucks). Let's hope he can swallow his pride and stick with plan B for the next three games.

That is purely speculation. If RM had done what that Ipswich manager has done this season, I doubt any Saints fan would have anything but praise for him. Or if we had played most of our matches this season like we did against Leeds (twice). It's been the persistent tippy tappy possession obsession that has driven so many of us nuts. Nothing personal against him as a person. I'm sorry to hear about your disease. I hope you make a quick and full recovery.

Unfortunately it’s not that simple for our Russ, as he’s proven time and time again. Hope I’m wrong but I fear it’ll be back to his beloved tippy tappy inverted fullback possession obsession Russball.

Oh shit, don't tell me Rasmus W. Ankersen is lining himself up for the job.

I'll take that. As long as the loss is a narrow one at the Hawthorns.

And if we had beaten Ipswich twice we would have finished second. Moral of story, don't lose six pointers!

Get injured?

That’s true. But we’ve had an insane number of games last month. Aribo for one looks knackered. I’d rest key players (Downes especially) and play a mixture of first teamers and reserves. Once Ipswich go a couple of goals up Leeds will also have eyes on the playoffs.

Can’t argue with that! I’d choose Ipswich going up over them any day. Unfortunately there’s a good chance they both will.

Agreed, I don't understand all this love in for Ipswich. Some of their players seem to be thugs, and as for them being poor, plucky underdogs: Owners: Gamechanger 20 Ltd. Net worth: $10.8B That being said, their manager has done a brilliant job, and if their manager and our muppet had been swapped at the beginning of the season I reckon we'd be where they are now, and they would be lower mid-table or even flirting with relegation.

They chose him, and he had just signed, so of course they believed it. On the other hand, if it had been 6 months later after dire, losing football, and they said "we have full confidence that he'll turn it around" then that's completely different, you know that it is indeed a load of bollocks (and they are probably about to fire him).

7 + 9 = 16.

Three words. Rasmus F*cking Ankersen.

Shockingly bad. And you can add that lunatic Dani "Headbutt" Osvaldo to that sorry list.
