Well, the finished 7th and qualified for Europe the season before so why wouldn't people sing their praises? If you want "shit" maybe look at the club that have been bottom pretty much every week since the world cup.

....or defeat and on Sunday morning someone is back on here saying "we're only 5 points off 15th that's nothing, we only need a draw in the next game and we're right back in the mix etc etc etc"

Lavia will go if we stay up or not. JWP could have left multiple times over recent summers. The idea that he of all people won't be bothered if we go down because he can get a different contract somewhere else is ridiculous. Whatever shitty point you're trying to make you could not have picked two worse examples.

We lost three of our last five league matches, including our last match. So, to be ten points and 4 places clear while still losing the last match is not really a "great escape". It's "team not under threat from relegation in the final weeks doesn’t get relegated".

"Give them a taste" of playing with a load of random other players that have never played internationally either, because all the main players have been left at home. That's definitely how international squad football works. Also, Ireland have a qualifier v France in three days time, so, you know, that.

Seems a bit extreme to get angry at a couple of pretty anodyne quotes about a manager talking about a coach he he has worked with and clearly likes.

We'd be four or five up by now if he was on the pitch.

Worth a scroll through 😪 Koeman era memories. https://twitter.com/saints_analysis/status/1638226576604012549?t=8nKaCq6VJK9w16b3jnE5cg&s=19

Absolute pie in the sky. All these other clubs aren't all going to collectively roll over and relegate themselves just for our benefit. Bournemouth are going down, congratulations. So are we. One other team will also drop bit the idea that the bottom 5 or 6 are all going to only pick up half a point a game for the last ten games is absolutely ludicrous. Saints need 36-8 points to actually stay up themselves, not just bimble around waiting for other clubs to all commit suicide.

We just need a player prepared to run at defences and go for goal.

You seem to be very good at recalling things that never happened.

We need at least a couple more points than that. 34 won't be enough, mainly because as soon as you start applying the SaintsWeb "realistically, we only need to..." thinking to all the other clubs down there, 34 points is a piece of piss for them. Forest 8 points from 11 matches, "dragged into it" Palace 7 points from 11, Leicester 9 from 11 and so on. We need to get something from maybe 7 of the remaining ten games, so we can afford 3 defeats for the rest of the season. Look, we're not going to do it. I need to stop going on about it.

Well, we're bottom of the league and rubbish so we should not "think" we should beat anyone at all, then. I'm not sure how this is an argument for us staying up. The point is not whether we "should" beat beat Brentford but that we needed to have beaten them to have a chance of staying up. Vanity draws against big clubs is not keeping us up.

You've really shown me up with your relentless optimism.

Sekou Mara has come on, so that means goals goals goals.

What a rollercoaster this season has absolutely not been.

I can only imagine the joy in the fanbase if the manager was given no new players and no investment from SR at all in January, apart from re-signing Nathan Tellla. I can imagine no downside to that scenario on February 1st whatsoever.

Oh why oh why oh why oh why didn't we solve our Premier League goalscoring problems by recalling from loan someone who has scored one entire goal in the Premier League in his career.

0.8 points a game equalling a full season total of 30 points. Bottom three non stop since World Cup. We need top 8 form from here on to get to 38 points and we've barely won a home match all season. Yes, if you're the kind of moron that gets excited by "look look the team in 16th is only 2 points ahead!!!!!" Then fill your boots. We had our little positive run and still we're bottom at the end of it and you still don't get it. The numbers absolutely speak for themselves.

Jesus wept.

It's so cute that some people honestly think we are still in the mix jostling with other teams to stay up.

Thanks for that.

We're not one win away from 15th, that's a moronic statement.

I think you must be reading different WhatsApp leaked messages to me.
