Football Special

I've heard Rasmus has approached these chaps , just what we need

Farewell Ivan, we'll never forget you.

Yes true, but if we're not able to shift some of our unwanted players we'll be using up some parachute payments paying inflated wages. I think we used loan market well in our last championship season, the likes of THB, Downes and Brooks , are we allowed 5 loans ? Hopefully can utilise that again

Is that an AI image?

I'd left before the final whistle but heard a few fans started booing and some of the clappers tried telling them to shut up, funny old world we find ourselves in now, don't think I could have brought myself to applaud them if I had stayed but also not sure I could be arsed to give them much stick either. Will be interesting to see how the home support react to them next game, might as well get behind the team and *try* to create some positivity, try to restore some pride like we nearly did v Palace.

Also interesting point about budget, guess it depends how much we raise from sales , not sure how FFP works in EFL but teams coming up from league one (Birmingham and Wrexham) I expect to spend much more than average , could be a tough division

Problem is we've had a wanky bollocks philosophy director in Ankerson as the driving force behind those appointments so need to keep him well away from the process

Leicester fans I know think they are in big trouble next season, club in a mess, about half of season ticket holders bothered to turn up last night vs Newcastle. Think they are trying to muscle in on our record breaking season by setting some new ones of their own , EIGHT home defeats in a row without scoring

Massive game for the u18s this weekend vs Chelsea, if we can win or draw will leave them in a good position for the title. Aston Villa still look favourites with several games in hand

It surely can't be any worse than the home game can it? For me this was the low point of the season , don't think even Martin’s biggest fans could justify him staying in the job after this, first half was probably worst defending I've ever seen

I'd be up for swapping managers with them if they want

They are fully focused on Europa league now Anyone who fancies joining in a protest they have one planned for Sunday, might go along for a laugh

At the time I thought it made sense to take Downes off, avoid a red, but turns out his yellow gets him a 2 match ban anyway so should have just risked it

Did Rasmus sign him there as well? Hadn't realised that connection

He'd benefit from a couple of games with u21s out of the spotlight I think

This is true, looked like he was asking to come off, as was Sulemana

Was horrible moment, players looked devastated, could hear a mass "fuck sake Saints" from the fans. Overall that was at least more enjoyable than everything else we've had to put up with recently Man of the match - the fans who bothered to turn up , actually felt more positive around me with many of the usual moaners missing

Context / comparison

We've basically got to stop thinking of ourselves as a Premier league club and approach each game like a cup tie , you never know could cause an upset

I'm expecting our fans to start singing "worst team in Premier league history, you'll never sing that"

Genuinely think we should bring on a u16 player near the end of a game to get youngest ever player record, needs to be younger than Ethan Nwaneri (Arsenal) – 15 years, 181 days old

It will really hit home when I see that R next to our name in the league table

Small sample of 10 season ticket holders I've asked 4 are not going to bother tonight with 1 other 50/50 still to decide, doubt that ratio will replicated across the stadium but could be quite a few empty seats. When someone has already paid for something but gets such little enjoyment they'd still rather not go that *should* worry the management of the club. Dear Mr Smith, I know you haven't bothered using your current season ticket that you've paid for, but please renew and give us some more money. Kind Regards The Ticket Office

He played for u21s and got injured

Wolves play Ipswich on Saturday as well so could get the job done by winning that
