I think we’ve definitely forgotten what that was like… Koeman era probably!

Conversely, if you’re winning games fans won’t mind a bit of ‘keep ball’ as we saw with Martin…

Agreed. I’ve always quite liked him as a manager, and of the English managers ‘with experience’ who are around atm, he’s probably one of the better ones.

Eckert said it was ’instinct’. His call.

2-1 up on Mac in league wins so far… Hopefully 3 on Sat 😉

You’ll need to wait a bit longer for Romeu I’m afraid…

You sure about that?

And they didn’t bother going out to walk around the pitch either… maybe Dragan was bollocking them? I hope so.

Now there’s a man to get the blood stirring in the changing room tonight! And we thought WS lacked gravitas…🫣

Echoes of Seles at Chelsea (before we realised everyone was able to beat Chelsea at Stamford Bridge).

It would be another unbelievable PR disaster for SR if it goes tits up. Not to mention a disaster for the team.

Anyone else think it’s odd that Romeu hasn’t been announced yet? Rumour was he’d be ‘in and around the squad’ for tonight. Please not another SR f*ck up…🫣

Yeah, I missed that Liverooool game - can’t remember why - gutted! Those were the days… 😔

Wonderful away day… though my memory has erased their goal. I’ve always claimed it was 0-4!

It all sounds horribly familiar…

There’s a tree by a river, and a hole in the ground, where the old man of Arran goes around and round…

And THB in particular would💩himself! (oh, wrong Keane…?)

Now you’re talking…

No chance whatsoever…

Christ... does every single thread on here have to include a pop at Bazunu, even when he’s nothing to do with the topic?! 🙄

David Ornstein is definitely NOT a ‘random journalist’…

As mentioned above, Ornstein reporting he is a ‘serious contender’, and Alfie House on TSP mentioned he’d been brought in “with half an eye on Still going ‘tits up’”. This is SR, you just know it’s going to happen… Beyond belief (though of course it isn’t).

Reflecting, I can’t recall a more abject performance - and we have a lot to choose from. We huffed & puffed for about 20 mins with absolutely no impact whatsoever. Azaz - a ghost, Armstrong - totally anonymous, even Scienza who started brightly burnt out, and resorted to falling over a lot. We had 2 shots on target, (only one of note) in an entire game v PNE. One thing’s for sure - it can’t carry on like this. I really wanted it to work for Will but this tanker is not turning under his watch. It’s just too big a job, and the rot is too deep, and SR really only have one card to play to keep the heat off them. If he’s not gone by the QPR game, he’ll be gone after it (another guaranteed defeat IMHO). Another bang average side turned out at SMS, and organisation and work-rate made them look different league to us. That is on Will I’m afraid (unless he’s telling them one thing and they’re doing something totally different on the pitch). But at the end of the day, he’s a symptom of the rot under SR, not the entire problem.

Blackmore didn’t do that interview in fairness.

Be a bit odd, one of the bottom-feeders loaning to one of the CL chasers…
