He's smashing it, looks too good for that league at the moment, can watch him tonight in FA Cup
-
Always enjoy a visit to Loftus Road, our record there seems decent, won on our last three visits which gives some hope compared to our terrible record at Bristol City and Blackburn we could actually get something

They've only just read your email

Agree, get a manager in who knows the league and pay out for best possible loans we could get in January
-
Apologies, if you have any of those images of Helga, Michelle or Yvette please feel free to post to cheer us all up 👍🏻 I'm sure the writers of Allo Allo could put together a great sitcom of Sports Republic era, loads of comedy characters have been involved from Rasmus to Russ, young Will Still, Tall Paul, Death Metal Ivan Juric , list is endless

Beautiful. Next time my kids have to do a poetry competition at school I'll just get them to copy and paste that

And the ultimate professional, saw him in a few champions league games for Barca, top fella who would set an example to some of the younger players who have been led astray

Is this you? https://www.dailyecho.co.uk/sport/24847513.southampton-fc-fans-pen-poem-russell-martin/

Could be worth a shot. Also Harwood-Bellis could invite him to the wedding and sit him next to his new father in law for a laugh

2025 version of that is deleting the Saints tickets app

https://talksport.com/football/3663823/southampton-sack-will-still-relegation-efl/ "Southampton's players and staff would welcome back Russell Martin as manager after the sacking of Will Still, talkSPORT understands" Who are these people? Flynn Downes and Lallana?
-
Having given it some time to reflect I do feel quite sorry for Still, I hope he gives an interview and gives full account of his time here as so many things just don't make sense, particularly the system that was different to what he'd used elsewhere. Were we the club where senior players had moaned to the owner about the manager? For some reason it never felt like his heart was in it. His wife has been through some terrible health scares so at least he's financially secure and spend time with her now without having to worry.

Yeah that gives impression they might be on their way as well?
-
Why have QPR appointed him?

Will be interesting to see what our support is like on Wednesday, only 1700 in upper tier, sold out straight away to season ticket holders with 10+ aways so in theory the most loyal fans but also the ones who have sat through the most demoralising performances. I've noticed a section of 50-100 empty seats at most aways that apparently are unused player comps, probably a good idea for them to stay away as I expect a lot of abuse to be directed towards their loved ones out on the pitch, perhaps Nathan Wood will sit up there himself if not in the squad
-
He clearly has.none of the attributes required to play that role, needs a Che Adams to do the physical work for him

Of all our terrible business I think Roeslev might be the most disappointing, he just offers nothing and is nowhere near the levels of James Bree, might as well have just kept him -

Our £ spent per win ratio will be easily the worst in professional sport , fans deserve credit for still turning up in such numbers to be honest -
Yes! I said this back in August, there was no sign of any strategy or building a team , completely dysfunctional bunch of strangers on the pitch who seem to have no plan , lacking strength in key areas with same mistakes made over and over again
-
Yeah he's looked like a terrible player for us, gets completely lost in games which just pass him by , no idea how he was supposed to fit in to the side but can say that about a few of our players
-
Perhaps, but Wood was clearly riled up towards the end of the game when we had a corner and Northam sang you're not fit to wear the shirt, looked like he told the whole stand to fuck off , I can't see him playing again without more abuse to be honest

Find posts from Blackmore frustrating, calling out the players for lack of effort , won't disagree with that, but he then needs to push the club on what is so rotten behind the scenes for that to happen, players not trying for Still or coaching staff , rot starts from the top and he should be more forceful , publicly call out Spors and invite him for interview rather than hiding in Germany. -

I think as fans you can see it's hard to pin point one thing to blame, board, manager and players all useless but change has to start from the top , I'm not too fussed on any Still Out campaign as just changing manager won't really improve things with SR making the appointment. They've had long enough and have been given enough chances, there's no future for the club with them in charge. -
Yeah I can't see a scenario where he can play for the club again, at least with fewer options we might stop with the 3 CBs

Sheffield Wednesday have a skeleton squad who have hardly been paid for months. ...and yet today showed exceptional spirit to get a 0-0 at West Brom today, will be the ultimate nail in the coffin next week showing up our bunch of misfits
