We don't really need him to lift the club. We need to win about 4 games from 11. That's a 36% win rate and his record shows he can deliver that without much bother. We've still got a decent squad and we just need to find those wins. I don't care if it is Hughes, there's others I'd prefer, I just want that idiot gone.

So the leading forum apologist/cheerleader for Pellegrino is describing a manager who has finished top ten Premier League over and over again as "dreadful". Okay then. Your Mauricio ain't ever going to achieve that. Not for one bloody club.

It doesn't have to be Hughes. Not my first choive by any means. I'm just saying he's a far superior manager than Gordon Strachan who has failed and failed in his last couple of jobs. Hughes is proven Premier League manager of this era. Strachan hasn't had a Prem job for more than a decade or looked remotely like getting one since he left us. For good reason. I'd be more excited by the reanimated corpse of Alan Ball appearing at an managerial unveiling than Gordon Strachan turning up. There will be plenty of fans who can barely remember Strachan's time here so fu ck knows you you think is going to be passionate about it.

You haven't got a clue. Hughes has finished top ten Premier League multiple times with multiple clubs. Gordon Strachan has done it at one club once and has done pretty much jack sh it since, failed pathetically at Middlesbrough. Even at International level Hughes succeeded where Strachan failed. Strachan is a pygmy of a manager compared to Mark Hughes. Mark Hughes is bang average, but he is miles ahead of our Gordon and definitely ahead of Pellegrino.

Mark Hughes pis ses all over Strachan.

Koeman Strachan Hoddle Pochettino Puel Pardew Ball all failed managers. Heaven forbid we should lower ourselves.

Somebody run this guy over.

You do realise there are different ways to lose, right?

Klopp bringing on Lovren just to troll us.

We've got to be into the last fifteen minutes of this idiot's Saints managerial career surely? Mark Hughes should be sat in the stands watching this Strachan style.

We've brought on Shane Long so that means goals goals goals.

It's okay. We're managed by the new Lawrie McMenemy.

Mane

Endgame for Pellegrino.

It's okay, before kick off last week people were saying on here that we were two wins from tenth. So we won one last week, so win today and we're tenth right?

No complaints about that line up. Come on Saints.

If people are struggling with the idea that we are not currently at the level of Liverpool and Manchester United like that was normal then I can only assume those people are children.

Except we're not.

Put your house on agonising, noble failure. Hoping we can hold on for a point because we need points really quite badly.

Are you thirteen years old?

That doesn't mean they get free money. What that study said is most students will make repayments year after year for 30 years at which point the loan expires. So that is a "tax"/burden that generation are stuck with for 30 years, and the point is really about the shi t salaries graduates can expect to get because of the gig economy and non-jobs. None of it is some great advantage for that age group - just symptoms of them being part of a very unlucky generation. And those grads who do get good jobs that allow them to pay it off are still stuck with that and high rents and a completely impossible task to get a mortgage. Of course the generation who bought a house on a mortgage at just 2 1/2 times their income and saw it rocket by doing nothing...they earned it. Really earned it.

Plenty of people are in the middle of a lifetime of hard work and paying taxes but won't get the advantages your generation got. Remember it ain't your taxes from the past paying for any pension and healthcare you recieve from the state. It's mine and the snivelling little brats working and paying in now. The idea that the state has miraculously squirrelled away your taxes from decades ago to be preserved for your benefit in 2018 is laughable. The government runs a deficit ran up by previous generations. It's not your post office book matey. Personally I'd rather my taxes weren't propping you up but I participate in society so will always do my bit. So remember that and try and be grateful for once in your life you miserable moaning ungrateful old cu nt.

You must be pretty bloody simple then if you need news like this to remind yourself that football isn't important.

I find the above comments utterly fu cking clueless. I must have missed that mass immigration of people aged 60+ putting all the strain on the NHS. Pretty certain they were here already. Immigration of working age people to, you, know, work isn't the thing putting strain on public services. Only if you believe sh ite in the Daily Mail. Ditto wage stagnation. It's not immigration that has created an economy of high employment in sh it jobs. But immigration hasn't stopped the "high employment" part, funny that. It's almost like they haven't taken anyone's job. But I feel I've already wasted my time typing this out because it's not the story you want to hear and you know, send-em-all-back, its a swarm, it's breaking point, let's take back control and so on and so on. Personally I am looking forward to the day our outward looking forward thinking open for business standing alone Great Britain does a ground breaking trade deal with India, my understanding is we'll wrap that up no bother around Easter next year. And then we'll see another influx of lots more wonderful extra brown people into the country to live and work and do that funny dancing, definitely be a different colour skin and everything. Because you will be supportive of that, won't you?

https://news.sky.com/story/amp/new-brexit-leak-reveals-steep-costs-for-uk-industries-11240583?__twitter_impression=true And now the by-sector analysis. Looking rosy. Every time I see these reports I do share one opinion with the swivel-eyed Brexiteers babbling on about the Osborne-project-fear -never-happened-routine: these numbers have been spun. Forecasts are intrinsically and inevitably wrong - that's what they are. But these numbers have been spun because that's what governments do. They spin. There's magic political dust on these numbers. Remember that. They will have been spun to make them look more optimistic than they actually are. They've been sexed up to actually look that sh it. They've been massaged and filtered to wring out a positive message. The establishment created these numbers. The Prime Minister and DeExEU are leading this work. Just think what those numbers were like before the spinning started. Just think. Still, will of the people, eh?
