Saint Rob is everything that's wrong with our fans. He's desperate to be famous amongst Saints fans, it's actually embarrassing. The only reason he has that flag is he's desperate to be on MOTD tonight. Plus who gets to the stadium that early on a match day.

SaintRob at his absolute comedy best with this one.

He thinks those signings would be 'sensible business' and he's also got an ear in at Swansea as he knows what they'll accept for 4 players. Who are we to argue with those views

SaintRob has his finger on the pulse and believes we should be signing 4 players from Swansea as well as their manager. I for one trust his well scouted and excellent views on these things

Glad to see Toby Steele will be staying for the foreseeable future so that he can ensure a seamless transitions for fans of teams in the Championship to enjoy their days out at St Mary's next season. I expect him to close further parts of the stadium after Sunday's game as our fans should take the blame for selling their seats back to the club and these tickets then ending up in the hands of Liverpool fans.

with fans chanting "One more year" and being 'heartbroken' by the thought of JWP leaving, why would he even consider leaving? Not my words, but the words of SaintRob, and I for one agree with him

With Russell Martin about to be appointed it made me think of other players or managers we've had where their surname could also be a first name; Ian Andrew Michail Antonio Stern John Lee Barnard Mick Channon Honourable mentions Shane Bradley Charlie Austin Lloyd James

As soon as I got the ticket exchange email I listed my ticket, so I fully expect a Liverpool fan to be sat in my seat Sunday. Will be enjoying the bank holiday weekend without another depressing afternoon at St Mary's

Russell Watkinson for me. The contribution he made in the 96/97 season should never be overlooked, before leaving the club to have a successful career. Add him to the "ones that got away" list.

Saint Rob on twitter has told the Swansea fans that we're a bigger club than them, and I for one believe him.

I recall him being booed and called a skate on his debut for us.

Southampton are set to hire Aberdeen’s Darren Mowbray as their new head of recruitment. The club have been talking to candidates over the vacancy over the last few months and have landed on former Burnley man Mowbray. Mowbray, who has been at the Scottish club since the summer of 2021, has also held senior roles at Leeds United and Middlesbrough. Mowbray will replace Joe Shields, who left the club for Chelsea in October. Jason Wilcox, who will join officially from Manchester City in the coming weeks, will oversee the football department and work above the manager. Sport Republic co-founder Rasmus Ankersen led recruitment in January with the club opting to wait for the right candidate this summer. Southampton will play next season in the Championship after their relegation was confirmed last weekend. They complete their Premier League season with games against Brighton & Hove Albion on Sunday and next weekend against Liverpool.

Last time we were relegated we signed the following players for a total of £90,000 in the summer. Dennis Wise - Free Djamel Belmadi -Free Darren Powell - Free Ricardo Fuller - £90,000 Tomasz Haijto - Free Kamil Kosowski - Loan Do you trust the new owners to have a better window than this?

Will never happen but if they priced season tickets at around £350 for anywhere in the stadium they'd get a lot of renewals and new season ticket holders. If they remain at £530 on average, then I think the club are going to be in for a shock when Season tickets sale only hit about 10'000.

Osvaldo's goal against Man City was a bit special. The atmosphere that day was one of the best at St Mary's, seemed genuinely intimidating for the away team.

80 minutes? Don't think I've made it to 70 minutes the last few home games. Luckily I've managed to resell my ticket to the club. Probably the only benefit I've had as a season ticket holder over the last 25 years!

Like others I feel massively detached. I've considered an Eastleigh season ticket as well this coming season after having a Southampton one since 1996. Ill eagerly await who they appoint as manager before making a decision alongside the price. £530 for 2 wins has been no value for money

Thoughts?

I remember Glenn De La Caur on Total Saints Podcast calling for him to be given the job until the end of the season when Jones was there. He seems to never mention that anymore

Bit of a wild one, but how about James Milner as player manager?

Kenneth Paul Dulieu for me

And I thought the Saints feed on twitter 10 years ago was bad enough. Might be unpopular opinion and I'd die on a hill for saying this but bring back Connor Armstrong to the Saintsfc twitter stream

I'm sure the club will come out with equally competitive prices after consultation with the Saints Voicers, such as; We've frozen the prices but you're getting 4 extra games Guarantee your seats to the playoffs and Wembley Save 5% off at the club shop You'll receive a free pin badge within a cutting edge designed presentation box made from recycled bottles Sell back your seat to any game that's a sell out

Always thought certain elements of our fanbase were the thickest in football, and that's been confirmed further today with the suggestion of James Milner as player manager 😂😂😂
