Can we sack absolutely everyone, not just Martin?

If he’s still available we should go for him for sure next season. Would love to have a championship title run with a proper manager. That’s the only positive I can cling to atm.

I know we are as good as down, so it shouldn’t matter… but every single Ipswich late goal really annoys me. It’s an absolute disgrace that they’re so much better than us. We are run by fucking idiots and i get angrier about it every weekend. DISGRACE

We are not competitive. Worst manager we’ve ever had and to top it off the most deluded. Absolutely mad that he’s still here. Absolutely mad how utterly shite we are and the club don’t even care. Laughing stock FC

Yep. He really is that deluded that he thinks he will be the next Vincent Kompany Russ, I have news for you mate. This is the highest level you will ever manage. Make the most of this because you’ll be gone soon and then you’ll be back to league one just like Nathan Jones. Sadly we will probably there to join you in a few seasons with these fucking idiots in charge.

He’s really starting to drain the fun out of football for me. Groundhog Day of awful decisions and rubbish excuses. Just fuck off you helmet and take your shit football with you.

He’ll go in the summer. He’d be absolutely fucking mental to stay. Anyone that thinks we will is sadly not living in reality. Make the most of him for the rest of this season

Russell the bearded wanker He can only play one way He never lets his players Play it forward in the game All of the premier league teams Beat Southampton Easily Then they tell poor old Russell He’s the best in history Then one foggy Sunday eve Tottenham came to play Russell with his tactics board Broke the Premier League possession record Son Heung-Min scored a hat trick Fraser Forster didn’t make a save But that doesn’t matter to Russell He’s won the possession gaaaame

Would love Rafa. He’d be insane to join us though.

Excellent post. They have been a complete and utter shambles so far. Dragan has to be embarrassed. Imagine spending all this money only to be breaking records for how shit we are. Heads need to roll at every level. Unfortunately it seems that they’re happy to plod along. Not sure where we go from here. At least it’s never dull being a saints fan.

They’re both fucking shit. And so are you.

I’d rather have no manager than this fucking moron. Genuinely. Just get Jack Stephens or someone to do it. He’d probs be more use there than on the pitch. We can’t get any fucking worse than we are right now under this twat

Has he FUCKING gone yet?!?

What I can’t stand is the condescension from the club and Martin himself. Yes, we have never been the most successful club. But we have had some genuine world class managers and players here, so we know good football when we see it. Trying to tell us to be happy with the utter dog shit we are being forced to watch is absolutely pathetic. He has been completely found out. Tactically he is nowhere near premier league level. Many of us knew it from the very start of his tenure. It was right to give him a chance after he got us up. But he’s failed his audition spectacularly. The worst premier league manager of all time. Time to go Russ.

Should have signed a DM to help Downes out. Fucking suicidal playing with only one holding midfielder every week

Im not exaggerating at all when I say that every single person in the Southampton hierarchy that was responsible for recruitment in those two windows should be fired directly into the sun

Martin is very very good at trying to subtley deflect the blame in the media. He’s a master of pretending to be accountable, whilst redirecting the blame elsewhere. It’s clear he’s trying to paint a picture in the media that he is a genius and then players are letting him down.

It’s easy for me. I didn’t get a season ticket this year as I have other commitments. I was planning to go to a lot of games anyway. But I simply won’t now. The club are treating the fans like complete mugs. Beyond a joke

They remind me of us under Pochettino. Shows what a massive difference a good manager can make to a fairly average squad.

So what you’re saying is, you agree? We need a new manager with a better football philosophy? One that instructs the midfield to get on the ball and the team to counter rather than to faff about passing backwards and sideways? Im glad you’ve finally seen the light

Standards at the club have completely disappeared. It’s unfathomable that they’re accepting this. Disaster after disaster every week. Martin is a complete embarrassment. So far out of his depth, it’s a joke. I feel sorry for those with a season ticket, genuinely. I can’t face any more of this and won’t be going to another game this season until he’s gone.

Fuck off martin you fucking bell end Bunch of fucking twats. Hate this manager and this club. Fucking embarrassing to support these fucking idiots.

Some of you are absolutely full of it on here. If there was a choice between Cortese coming back or Rasmus Ankersen.. you’re telling me you’d choose Rasmus? LOL Pimpin is right, it’s not just about throwing money about. It’s how you spend it, the culture inside the club and showing leadership. Cortese was light years ahead of these buffoons

Agree with this. Manager is letting Downes down. He needs help but we have a fucking imbecile in charge who can’t set up a midfield. As for Lesley… absolutely horrendous. I know he was rated at Chelsea so I’m not sure what’s going on…Is Martin playing him out of position, or is he just worse than anyone thought? He really has been abysmal so far. Can’t decide if him or BBD is our worst signing.

Cortese was fantastic for this club if you zoom out. Seems like things went out of control toward the end. (Ego went out of control if the rumours are actually true) But what he achieved here was incredible. It’s re-writing history to say otherwise. Compare his managerial appointments, academy work and transfers with SR. The difference is staggering. We were professional and moving toward long term targets instead of just talking about it.
