Lee On Solent Saint

Last season again. We aren't ever going to play like that again, unless we are back in the Championship playing absolute shite like Swansea every other week.

Couldn't agree more. This squad is capable of being competitive at this level.

Not sure if we get relegated he can stay to be honest. Can imagine it being a bit like Jones if we are still playing like this around November time. He doesn't like being questioned about his methods during interviews, I can see him having a Jones meltdown at some point.

I'd like to see us play at a quicker tempo, cut out the needless passing between the back line and midfield. I'd like to see us not be scared to actually attack teams. I'd like to see us be competive against teams that are likely to be in the bottom 8 with us. I'd actually like to see us work oppostion keepers.

Works great for Man City. No idea why though.

So, you'd be quite happy for us to get beat each week with Martin in charge?

So, you really think this season is going to be much different? Confidence won't last much longer in the players if we keep losing games. Well coached in doing what exactly? Passing the ball between our back line? We lose against Ipswich and the atomsphere at St Mary's will be every bit like when we lost to Wolves and Forest in our relegation year.

Can I ask how you felt in our last relegation season? Did you enjoy watching us that season? This season isn't going to be any different. The manager. like Jones and Selles before him, is completely out of his depth.

Ok then.

Are you seriously suggesting Ramsdale would stay if we got relegated?

Why do people insist we will be better off next season if we go down again? Most of the squad we have now will leave. The three teams relegated from last season haven't exactly made the best of starts, why would we be any different when we are going to have the likes of Baz back in goal? Saying this season is a gift is about as tinpot and noddy as you can get. We aren't in the Premier League for the first time in our history.

Not picking your best starting eleven to win a football match? What the actual fuck??

Going to be quite the atomosphere if we end up losing to Ipswich in a few weeks time.

This is exactly it. I do wonder where he has picked up his ideas from. He hardly played for any ground breaking teams in his career.

It was shit because it consisted of five players who aren't likely to make five league appearences between them this season barring injuries and suspensions. Nothing to do with formations.

Why are you banging on about Wednesday? It was a cup game with a completely different back five, which barring disasters will never be seen again. It has no revelance to our performance today.

It was a formula to get us through the playoffs, probably stumbled across due to Baz's injury. We barely got through playing that system in the Championship, now facing better opposition we are stil playing that system in the PL. Its fuckin madness.

But surely they are playing to Martin's directions and instructions? These guys are senior pro's, Bednarek is a Polish international with god knows how many caps. They should not be passing it backwards and sideways to each other. The only way they are doing so is because they have been told to do it.

I thought that as well. Almost like he was reading from a script or auto cue

Blackmore asked him about why the lads from Wednesday, specfically, Dibling and Fernandes didn't start today. Martin rambled on about them playing too many minutes on Wednesday and being fatigued from that match.

Tessem calling him out on that one.

Fatigue in fuckin August?! Just fuck off.

Listening to RM on Solent. He really is full of fuckin shit.
