Today he said there’s been no contact on his future from anyone. To whom it may concern at the club: PLEASE sign him up. Please. Sign da ting

Hahahahahaha this is classic saints. Remember when they told us he would be in the team of the season? 😂 Why are our fans better at spotting talent (or lack of it) than the club? FFS

Do we do the same with our scouting? ”nah no need to look at the tapes mate. We signed that livramento kid before, this next one will be a gem too”

Agreed. Worst part is, so much of this has been obvious. It’s not even like we are fans with 20/20 hindsight Almost all of this was brought up at the fan forums. Just insane management from the top down.

Would any other club back a shit goalkeeper to relegation, and then again to miss out on promotion? Suicidal management from the top down. Compound that with buying a crocked striker and we have absolutely fucked both business ends of the pitch.

I thought the same.. made absolutely no sense to take him off. He still looked fresh

He doesn’t react in games. You can argue that he’s a good coach and has improved some of our players. You can also argue that he has done pretty well overall. But he is not reactive enough at key moments in games and it’s cost us promotion. His inexperience in big games has cost us. It was obvious to all that without a focal point in attack, we invite pressure. It was obvious KWP should have replaced the knackered Bree. It was obvious stu atmstrong was knackered. All these things later on in games, Martin misses, consistently. Litmus test: swap managers around yesterday and we would have won.

Came here to say that. Not having a competent target man has been a catastrophe. Adams was OK today but as soon as he’s got tired and gone off we have been utter shit. Shocking recruitment

I am 100% confident that Adkins team would beat Martin’s team

Baffling tactics, just like the decision to try and pass it around in our own area as much as possible instead of in the oppositions half. Apparently we are supposed to trust the process

We’ll win this. 2 or 3-1. Easy

Che adams’ fault. Can’t be a professional footballer and miss chances like those. Genuinely fucking pathetic.

How does a professional football player - a striker no less - miss those two chances Beyond horrific

Makes an absolutely massive difference. I can’t get my head around playing him at full back. That decision alone makes me question Martin’s sanity

I absolutely adored him as a footballer. I also agree with most of his views now. The government are all corrupt wankers that can’t be trusted. Covid response was a total joke. The vaccines were rolled out far too quickly and weren’t worth the risk - especially in young people. Calling his views batshit is plain wrong when there is so much evidence that he is correct. I didn’t touch the vaccine with a barge pole and I don’t regret the decision one bit. Also his stance on most things is simply: do not to believe the government. This is totally a justifiable view given years of lies, corruption and deceit.

Quite incredible how he makes so many good attacking players looks bafflingly shit every time we play

No arguing that we were the shittest team in the league. But the point raised is completely valid. If Leicester go up anyway, and get a points deduction next season, their cheating was totally worth it. It’s us and Leeds who have been shafted because we followed the rules. Plus, who knows, if we had cheated like they did, we could have signed or kept a couple of players that would have made a huge difference. In championship clubs are incentivised to break the rules and go all out to get promotion.

Fuck me a lot of negativity on here. We can beat anyone in the league on our day, especially once KWP and Fraser are back fit

Hahahahah what is that free kick

No one is blaming Stephens. Everyone is blaming shoehorning players into incorrect positions because of Stephens.

Why don’t you go and support them then, seeing as you feel this way? They’ve won fuck all that matters and the one thing they did win of any value was won using fraud. Hardly anything to be jealous of.

As saints aren’t playing I’ll be looking out for your scores today.. good luck & have fun

Nope, just extending your own logic to show you the absurdity of your posts. Of course goalkeepers make a huge difference to a team. Of course stats are useful. You can’t just bury your head in the sand and ignore things because you don’t like the results. Bazunu is lucky we got relegated as he doesn’t look quite so out of his depth. But he is still making us worse and his inexperience has cost us points this season - points we wouldn’t have lost if we had a proper keeper. Maybe in a couple of seasons he will be ready to be a top half championship keeper. I only hope he remembers how the club stuck by him if he does develop into the player the club thinks he could be.

Why even have a keeper then? If they make no difference and you choose to ignore stats. May as well just blindly trust him. I know… why don’t we stick a cone in goal with a photo of bazunu’s face? After all, changing the keeper makes no difference. You’d still be here defending him anyway as he’s clearly your grandson

Jesus Christ, I actually wish we could win the league, pocket the money then stay in the championship. So much more fun being in this league and actually standing a chance in games
