Semmens is basically a kipper - spineless, gutless and prone to causing wind! I think it is likely that he was behind Hassenhutl getting the 'stay of execution' until the World Cup break, and is now in a 'quid pro quo' situation with Ankersen regarding Jones.

My view too. I think the Board are appeasing Ankersen in giving Jones one game to 'do it my way' in an attempt to save his face. Ankersen is very well aware that his appointment has been a disaster and is putting his ego before the club in allowing the charade to play out for another week. I am getting the impression Semmens wasn't happy with the appointment and would have liked Jones removed at the weekend.

Reminiscent of the Nuremberg Trials.

If he was any more street, he’d be homeless!

If we stay up and win the cup final in May I still intend to knee Nat in the Crown Jewels on his way up the steps to King Charles. Frame and mount that photo you little weasel!

Get well soon Francis, and keep the faith that the boil on the arse of SFC will be lanced soon!

Apologies Toadhall, I misunderstood. We are singing from the same songsheet 👊

Regardless, he was at Stoke, a proud club with a good top flight history. This level of public facing narcissism appears strange to me.

The weirdest thing of all is that it was just an away match at Elland Road, he hadn't won anything or achieved anything. Can you imagine the mind set that type of direction requires, borderline personality disorder.

That's a really well written considered piece. Exposure as a passive aggressive fraud. The longer he stays at Saints the worse the deserved ridicule will be - football fans have long memories, particularly when dealing with shit-houses.

Never gets old. Obi Wan Kenobi, you're my only hope...

The only way that Nathan Jones is able to improve our club is to leave it.

Brentford ultras. Rasmus might be in for a learning curve.

Drive into the skid!

Odds on would be a different ending however. Gladys, a 75 year old dinner lady from Shirley calls Nat a ‘dinlo’ as he’s running the gauntlet. Dragon fire blazing in his eyes, Nat leaps the barrier, within an instant he confronts his antagonist in a cloud of pickled onion Monster Munch breath. Gladys takes a half step back to distribute weight, and chins Nat with a sweet short uppercut sending his seven stone Lycra clad frame back over the hoarding. Lying face up on the turf on the edge of consciousness Nat hears the concerned crowd chanting his name in unison ‘Nathan Jones, what a wanker, what a wanker…’ and he’s transported back to his hard ex-mining town childhood where this sort of thing happened every week when it wasn’t raining.

I'd go for a lifesize inflatable effigy of Nathan Jones - 4ft 3ins - to be kicked between the stands for ninety minutes whilst it's leaks helium in a irritating Welsh accent. Failing that extreme violence, full tonto!

A mother buys her kids a pet dog for Xmas but instead of getting the Labrador they wanted instead she brings them a weasel from an aggressive mining town. The kids know it’s a weasel so they tell the mother she should have been more diligent. They despise the weasel and find out it has rabies and chronic diarrhoea. Out of control the weasel lashes out proving it to be an even more obnoxious little cunt than anyone thought possible, eventually disappearing up its own arse. The mother is sectioned under the mental health act.

Looks like we are at the seagulls and trawler stage, albeit with a less poetic / rounded analogy.

Knowing Ankersen's fuzzy logic he's probably agreed to bring this ex-skate relic here to help Nat out. Can you imagine.

Lots of people, all better than Jones. Just like Everton managed with Dyche last week.

Think that two things are happening, either the Board are sounding out replacements and negotiating with Jones about his pay off / confidentiality etc. thinking they can look slick when the sack him Wednesday and announce his replacement on Thursday, or Ankersen in an attempt to preserve ego and credibility has doubled down and convinced snakey Semmens the other noddies on the Board that Jones is about to 'click'. Hope for the first and fear for the second. Ankersen has very little experience and no real track record in Premier League football and like Jones has been blagging, attempting to learn on the job. What he might not realise is that there is no way back for Nathan Jones and if he tries to keep the little weasel on to relegate us, no way back for him either. The manboy needs to stop playing games and grow up fast.

That’s on Rambo Wankersen. I watched a few games on YouTube of Stoke and Luton sides overseen by Nat followed by the pressers and was all the due diligence required for a sentient human being who had watched football matches previously.

Which makes our inept board look even more stupid in their indecisiveness!

If that’s true the board is complicit and reckless.

Crackers if that’s the case!
