Willo of Whiteley

lovely isn’t it

I wouldn’t feel too destroyed if I was earning £50K a week plus bonus’. I really don’t accept the whole “scar tissue” or “suffering after last season” as an excuse. At the end of the day it’s eleven men vs eleven men every match. And it comes down to who want it more. You can have all the talent in the world but if you don’t try then you aren’t going to get very far. The squad we have is talented, supposedly. But I haven’t seen anything apart from a couple of players which suggests they’ll run through brick walls to get the job done. All I’ve seen is a swagger of “yeah we’re better than them” and then freezing when we’re aced with a team that want it more.

George Long was a comedy loan signing, seemingly with noise of celebrations coming from east anglia when that transfer was completed. Alex McCarthy has been shocking for years, and one of our most expensive players. It’s maddening that this guy was third choice two years ago, yet out of the blue played the final 6/7 games and got a new two year contract! But the fact we’re debating one of the above challenging Gavin Bazunu sums it up really. Too much too soon when we bought him. We’ll never recoup that money. Just another £10m pissed down the drain.

I wouldn’t say last season destroyed them as such. Flynn Fownes threw his toys out the pram when Russell Martin left and seemingly when he wasn’t able to leave in January. He clearly doesn’t want to be here and has started poorly this season. Taylor Harwood-Bellis I’ll give some credit for not kicking as much of a fuss up; but he was poor last season, has been poor this season and seems to have that aura of blaming everyone else but himself. These two are not as good as they think they are and the sooner they realise that the better off the club will be.

What’s Ralph Hassenhutl doing nowadays? 👀

He looks lazy as anything.

Spread those cheeks lads, it’s going to be a drubbing

I don’t normally do computer games but I’m actually looking for to FIFA coming out so I can start a new Saints career and sell Bazunu, Hardwood-Bellis, Downes, Stephens, Stewart etc. The way forward is the Willo Way. 🤣👍🏻 It sounds shit, but honestly it can’t be any worse than what there currently is!

Drop Stephens, Downs, Bazunu and Harwood-Bellis. Even Roerslav sounded abysmal.

Danny Rohl, even if he is a bit of a nob, can’t be much worse!

Fully expect us to replace Will Still with Goztepe’s manager in six months time…

It’s almost like I said an hour ago that Adam Armstrong should be playing… Who’d have thought that a player known for scoring 20-25 goals a season in the Championship would score.

Does anyone want my Middlesbrough ticket next week?

3-0?!?! WOW!

I’ve got huge concerns about Will Still and this team. The hype has been huge, the hugging up of the transfer window those last few days too. Yet the most underwhelming result last week, and performance to match, and now this… It’s bad. The only crumb of comfort is that we started exactly the same two years ago and look how we finished the season.
