That is fucking awful. Jesus Christ

Cant believe there are people defending him. Unbelievably low standards from you

We are all basically saying that we really have 2 choices: 1) accept that Still was a terrible appointment and change the manager. 2) accept that the player recruitment was terrible and keep the manager on, hoping things improve. And this is why Still was such a bad appointment for me, and why I was desperate for someone with more experience. We needed a strong, experienced manager so we could say “for sure it’s the players, we have to stick with him and back the manager for now”. Instead we are up shit creek without a paddle. He has nothing on his CV to suggest he can fix this.

One thing I will say, his post match comments are actually aligned with reality in a way that some of the other lunatics in charge haven’t been: “We seem to have to climb a mountain every time to score a goal, and the opposition, we just gift it to them. Will Still asked if he thinks his players are questioning themselves enough: "I hope they are. I really hope they are. But when you hear them, when you listen to them, when you hear comments, I'm not sure that that's the case for the moment.”

Maybe in a counter attacking team he would do well as a poacher on the break. But he simply is nowhere near what we need. Baffling recruitment as usual

Seems unthinkable based on the quality in the squad on paper, but we are completely broken from top to bottom. 4 wins in 17 months is the sort of long term form that can be hard to turn around once the rot sets in. It’s very difficult to see how we will score enough goals until we can sign a striker in January.

IWhat’s Sam Allardyce up to these days? Reckon he’d fancy a rebuild job?

The Bristol players said it after the game. We started well, so the manager matches our formation and negates us completely. What did will still do? Absolutely fuck all

Like.. I also don’t want a new manager. We need stability. But wtf are we doing here, seriously?

You say this, but what the fuck else are we supposed to do? Clearly not working, clearly the formation is absolutely wrecking us. We were promised our new director of football would bring in the signings we needed, but he’s managed to sign Ali Dia and make us weaker at both business ends. Dunno where we go from here, really. Are we really going to lose each week until we can sign a striker?

Hes a shadow. Positions himself like he’s never played football before. And when it does come near him, he gives it away. Astonishingly bad signing

Downs is honestly the worst player I’ve ever seen play for us. Without any hyperbole or exaggeration. He is really that bad.

Here we go Ali Dia coming on. This will be a fucking laugh

It’s all just fucking pointless isn’t it? We do nothing well. Complete joke of a squad & club

Get this clueless fucking ginger prick out of here Fucking joke

Sack absolutely everyone and start again. Fucking joke of a club

Shea has to bury that. Free fucking header

Started well. As usual our strikers let us down. Archer is gash, absolutely fucking gash. How has our recruitment let us down this badly, again? Disgraceful really

It’s unbelievable really. We have to work astronomically hard to score a goal. Other teams just have to play a simple pass or cross and score with ease. It’s really starting to look like the squad is just really poor even for this level.

lol.

Think we look good so far. Moving it faster and with more purpose. Get in.

Our recruitment team are fucking mental I’d love to be a saints scout, easiest job in the world. Just get pissed up and do magic lushrooms all day

I hope I get home and Sydney Sweeney is in my bedroom in a thong. Similar probability between that and Downs making an impact this season I reckon

What a day that was. Still can’t believe we lost
