No criticism of you MB and equally no defence of NJ but bloody hell - I could have written that. No substance to it at all. Awful piece. And if Football Insider is the first port of call for disgruntled Saints players then the bar has sunk lower than I had imagined!

Agree 100%.

True - but if Diallo had gone with him and challenged it might have made a difference. The fact he stood there and watched - literally - Lallana score was not a ringing endorsement of his ability. Hence his being hooked at HT.

I think if you rewatch Diallo’s failure to track Lallana for the first goal you might think differently…..😉

Joined 11 hours ago….is that you Ralph? 🤔

I think that’s the point he was making. We’re so shit at recruitment we’ll bring in a crocked striker.

A few thoughts on Jones’s start to his Saints tenure from a Luton forum here for consideration.

You know exactly what I meant you self-righteous prick.

Anyway, after a 120 mile drive I’m walking down to SMS to support my team. Have fun behind your keyboard @niceandfriendly.

Where did I say ‘not allowed to comment’? I’m simply saying not a single second of the game has been played, so why not just see how it goes? If it’s shit it’s shit - but we don’t know yet. Not such a big ask is it.

Other than Stu….which of the bench would you prefer to have in the starting 11?! Everyone moaned at AMN and AA; they’re out. 5 at the back is out. Yet still people moan. How about we give them a chance ffs?!

Think it has to be. There’s no 3rd CB in that line up. If so, that’s lesson learnt from the Lincoln game.

Worth a listen. He’s clearly keeping his powder dry to an extent which is understandable but there is absolute recognition that there were things which very much need to improve. https://www.bbc.co.uk/sounds/play/p0dqlj35

That would be horribly counterintuitive- not least because Jones abandoned that system 60 odd minutes in.

They'll be in a lot more financial trouble if we don't invest and then go down.....

True. But then we've not had a WC in December before. I can't recall seeing anything major or even minor for any club to be honest...am sure, as always, it will crank up once the clock ticks round to 1st Jan.....

Hat trick for Ballard. He’s got to be knocking on the door sometime soon….

Where did you find that DT? I’ve looked everywhere including on BCFC site….but nothing. We lost 2-0 there 27.11.11….but can’t see a dickie bird about a friendly result this weekend.

From my favourite (and statistically reliable) predictions website (https://projects.fivethirtyeight.com/soccer-predictions/premier-league/). Even though we are currently 19th we only have a 33% chance of relegation.....

He earned more from the ‘kiss and tell’ interview with Porky Morgan than he’d earn with us…..

3-1.

2-1.
