They are so arrogant and delusional you almost forget they’ve only won the league twice in 30 years. Pep is back with his wife now, so the scousers will have to settle for second in 25-26 anyway.

To be fair, software engineers and Saints players have a lot in common. They both earn a lot of money for doing fuck all.
-
Their horrific autumn run feels like a lifetime ago now. I think they'll finish second in the league. Unfortunately we have no chance. 0-3. As an aside, the squad relegated in 2022-23 would normally fight for their lives in a 'shop window' game like this. Remember when we knocked them out of the cup two years ago? No chance of any such result with this season's rabble.

We should be looking to the future, not the past.

Smallbone, Stephens, McCarthy and Fraser are all entering their final years soon. If any of them receive extensions Spors can be immediately written off as a fraud

Manchester United truly are utterly dire. It’s a shame the promoted sides are just that bad because they would be fighting relegation any other year. Meanwhile, the PL seemingly can’t wait to get rid of us as my “favourite team” in the Fantasy app has changed itself to Newcastle.

To be honest, I think Russell Martin coaching has conditioned these players to be worse than they actually are. Like you said, off-the-ball is so important in the PL and so is athleticism. I’m not one to blame a single person for everything for years but you have to admit those elements were hardly important under him and players’ abilities in these areas had withered noticeably by the time Juric came in. If we spent last year playing a style centered around pressing I think we would have fared better this season with the exact same squad. Not too much better. But better.

One thing I’ve learned supporting this club, no matter how bad you think we can be, we can always be worse.

Yes, Ipswich’s dressing room.

Along with Bednarek he is the poster child of our diabolical defense. Sell. Loan out. Make him train with the U21s for his last year if that’s what it takes.

Rooney is available

Nuke Staplewood during first team training and rebuild with the insurance payout. This team is gutless, spineless and pathetic. That’s it. There will be no more points. We will go down in history forever deservingly as the worst Premier League side of all time.

We were very brave.

If shitting the bed is being relegated, how we are playing now is smearing it on the walls.

2-1 written all over this. Too little too late I’m afraid.

When the second went in I went apoplectic and almost crashed into a unsuspecting biddy on the M27.

Jay Rob hat trick.

He's got more photos of Gerrard than my mum has of me.

Good. Let's hope someone takes him off our hands.

I wouldn’t want to hang around Wednesday whilst Chansiri is still about if I were Shea.

A mutual cup final. They have arguably been even worse than us this calendar year, having not even registered a home goal in 2025 so far. We know what that means. A 1-1 draw will be good enough for both sides to pop the champagne corks.

I can't help but feel we would be more likely to get a bad owner or one that can't invest rather than a good owner. All you had to do was stop listening to Rasmus about two years ago, Dragan

Said job being a 4th place finish in a three-horse race.

I've heard Dai Yongge is looking for a new asset to strip.

Rohl still makes the most sense to me out of the likely options. Prior experience at the club and with a relatively successful recent manager, familiar with some current and ex-club players as well as a connection to our current DoF, and a pragmatic style that fits the club's DNA. Get it done Saints. Do not haggle over half a million of compensation. In case Rohl is a poor fit, not getting back up first season down is far from the end of the world.
