Gloucester Saint

Delighted for the England fans who travelled, friend of mine was sending video clips of the run chase. The Aussie supporters were sporting at the end saying ‘good win England’. The pitch curator, as they call them there, is getting some hammer though for their sporting centrepiece ending in just two days.

SR/Rasmus won’t allow it.

I broadly agree with this post. Tonda is just another face on Rasmus’s operation and approach, if he goes it’s more of the same. The only way the patient can improve or even have signs of hope is a takeover and SR’s departure. Being outplayed by Oxford United in a 3-sided stadium on 5% of Saints’s budget is in no way an overreaction from any of us, it’s frustration from many at such poor underperformance when the decks were supposed to be cleared with Kraft et al leaving. Tonda should play his own system and team, but it’s clear there’s interference from SR board level. Spors has also alluded to it in previous interviews and is clearly angling for a move.

Funny that. Remember, if not it’s not broken, break it, then break it some more….

What he learned from watching Phil Giles I suppose?

https://www.rasmusankersen.com Coaching on how to build high-performance organisations….hmmmm 😂

Russell Martin had a worse squad 😂😂😂 Che Adams, Jan Bednarek, average in the PL but miles better than we have now. KWP better still. Fraser was 2 years younger. The loan players - David Brookes was quality.

Does that read as modest and self-reflective to you? https://www.rasmusankersen.com No, me neither.

He will just be replaced by another 30-something blank template Rasmus will control. Focus on getting rid of SR.

In isolation a fair point but Ross is made of glass and Leo/Tom a bit more substantial.

Certainly wasn’t any in his pencil, finishing wise. Mrs Armstrong would be the only one who could comment on the other variety of lead and pencils.

That is what the lower East used to chant at Wendy Toms. Actually, she was one of the better linos around and Durkin the best ref of that era. The mail sorting office at Dorchester (IIRC, before they all went full time) would have run llke clockwork.

I don’t think he’s being serious at all, he just hasn’t used this 😉

The Valenciennes and Goztepe fans certainly have lead in their pencil in giving it to SR. By contrast, I’m not sure if Southampton has had fluoride or Valium added to its drinking water?

The same ones funnily enough who said Ross Stewart was fine as main striker and Gavin Bazunu fine in goal.

Hard to know where to start with this post. Watch the transitions and breaking through the lines at the Valley again. He isn’t the problem per se, nor is Johannes Spors, that is Rasmus Ankerson indulged by Dragan Solak. And yes, the way those two have destroyed Southampton’s once proud football club is both unsustainable, utter madness and furthermore a disgrace.

Is that what he did? Wow. He can’t have been at the Ewood Park game and heard the away end’s reaction there. Or he’s just thick as pig’s shit.

He’s about as helpful with his feet and hands as Mr Methane is with his bowels and arse. At least Paul Oldfield is vaguely entertaining. Actually, he’d better value than a light show when the parachute payments run out.

Someone should have put that as a Christmas Cracker question at the the SFC boardroom Christmas Party.

@Smirking_Saint said he’d put his hand up at Christmas if Gavin still was nowhere good enough. Poor SS has probably got PTSD if he went today judging by the crap I saw first half.

Geographical distance, a local football team with their hero back in charge, decent local rugby team, real ale, hillwalking… Let’s forget about the Ashes though, those have been ruining my mornings!

The owners are the primary issue - the managers and player recruitment are the symptoms. Not the virus. The only way the patient improves and has hope is when the virus is expelled.

Mr RAF/70s porn star moustache and Adam Blackmore - not holding out much hope. Those two are as lightweight as the football team and as challenging to SR’s mad experiments as the last few puppets they’ve appointed and controlled.

Didn’t me, I’ve had a great one. Years since I let those corporate tossers impact weekends or festive seasons.

He’s like a Friday Morris Marina on the Longbridge production line.
