Football Special

Asked my QPR mate for his thoughts. He said they weren't great today with heavy home defeat but have shown some decent stuff recently and expect at least a point against us.... Teams are genuinely pleased to be facing us at the moment, "at least we only have Southampton on Wednesday" That's where we are. More than covered my expenses today backing Preston at 4/1 , will.have to check out QPR odds Shame on Sports Republic

Please stop criticising Armstrong, I very much doubt even he rates himself in that role , always done well alongside a more physically capable forward who can hold the ball up, make space and bring others into play, Armstrong on his own is destined to fail (as is Archer) we all knew that before the season started so surely the decision makers did within the club (don't @ me with Loch Ness Cripple and Downs )

I'd say our fanbase is actually very similar to Norwich, talk a good game and like to moan about our circumstances but actually soft as shite when it comes to actually doing anything about it

Fuck knows, but I've met and chatted to Stepehens a few times over the years, as an individual he's not a great player but.i can guarantee he cares and has been with us in moments like winning at Anfield in a semi final so he gets it, this will hurt for him.at the moment

We had a corner 90+4, in front of Northam, game was obviously gone by then, fans let players know what they thought of them quite rightly, from what I could see Wood only one to visibly react dismissively to not fit to wear the shirt, well if the manager and club won't tell them it's up to us, fans fucking hate you you useless bastards, no turning back now , they need to know, we have a low bar and they've gone well below it

Some cunt in the Northam tried shouting down protests saying "theyve spent money" We'll I've fucking spent money, more than I can afford following these wankers, don't know why others couldn't see it earlier but this whole fraud about how good our players are needs to end ASAP, completely dysfunctional as a team for this division

Yeah fuck the laptops, fuck the stats, it's all bullshit, any real person who watched the game in person today could see that team wasn't going to score

For me....there is a lot to care about we have a club that meant something, I went to The Dell just like my father and his father did, it is something worth preserving as.it means something, watching custodians run it into the ground with bad decision after bad decision is not ok, we should have fucked these cunts off after the first relegation, fans need to stop being so tolerant and stand up and be heard, make their lives hell, fuck Solak, fuck Ankerson, fuck Lallana. They all need to be gone

Towards the end? I was behind the goal In The Northam, he looked really put out by the your not.fit to wear the shirt song and reacted to it, fucking hell Nath you have no idea how much this team is hated by the fanbase, generations my family have been going, kids don't want to go anymore, you are part.pf that you bunch of absolutely useless cunts , no fight in any of you

Go back to the transfer window thread, made this point multiple times, there is zero strategy, we do NOT have a team and will continue to lose.to teams with very basic championship players, we've been sabotaged , no way the people.in. charge can be this incompetent and clueless,if they are resignations on Monday but never show your faces at St Mary’s again

Let's not waste our time or energy on the kid Will Still, he's a youngster well out of his depth, let's focus in on those those who sabotage this once great football club, anyone associated with Sports Republic should be very clear, do not show your faces at St Mary’s stadium again

I made this very point earlier on in the season on transfer thread, we do not have anyone to aim the ball to, clueless strategy by clueless people, SR must be intended sabotage , no other explanation they can't be that incompetent

FAO Itchen centre season ticket holders kick your seats with force to break them and. Lob them towards the directors box , do your bit , your football club needs you

Best bet of a result is if our fans spend 90 mins breaking off the seats and lobbing them on the pitch to get the game abandoned

Decent numbers coming down from Preston (by their standards)

Fair point, needs a Scottish accent as well.

Would this tune work for Leo Scienza ?

Remembered it well , game had been rearranged after the warehouse fire had postponed original fixture, maybe that was a lucky omen? No fires this time though

Any day now it's going to click.....

Cat C prices helped and could get cheap tickets for junior members so that's probably helped, still loads of empty seats, Preston will have over 2000 empty seats in their corner as well

I agree and fed up with him bringing up last season, we're all well aware how shit it was Will, but we expected a bit more this season not more of the same

We noted that, unbelievable work rate off the ball, relentless, made it so hard for our lads, on the ball they moved it around effortlessly even under pressure, looks so simple yet compared to our first XI huge difference, should have made them all attend to watch first hand how to do it

Enjoyable evening, Real Madrid had some top quality players out there, passing and movement high standard, Bazunu made some very good saves, nice to get a late equaliser to give kids something to cheer, 10,907 attendance 👏

I can probably write it for you; Lads feel we've been unlucky Injuries and sickness bug have made things really difficult Got to bounce back and show what we can do on Saturday

Nice to be reacquainted with our underdog status again so soon though, going into games with opposition "expecting " to beat us. I didn't read every post but overall the Preston fans seem a fair bunch, got a lot of time for clubs like that , no glamour just supporting their local side whilst surrounded by many other 'bigger' teams
