No one wants Big Sam of course because his advent at any club means you are staring relegation in the face and he is required to perform his annual Houdini act. Unfortunately, my crystal ball has swirling imagery of Gao sat at a Formica board table, picking up a phone with Reed stood behind him looking very fat and sweaty, and Goa is dialling Sam. The large Saints Crest clock in the background above an empty trophy cabinet, has the date 19 January 2019....

Club is dysfunctional.

Austin and Long are well past their sell by dates and are lower league material. We flounder around buying mediocrity in search of their replacements, and have the same type of bloated squad of journeymen we did before the last relegation, and we are again reduced to employing the sort of managers who can only just tread water in the premier league at best. I fear it’s only a matter of time before the trap door opens.

The whole St Mary's 'show' is embarrassing. The so-called atmosphere dire. Sanitised patronising crap served for tourists and gormless students who secretly support Man U.

Ah. Indeed.

Oh dear. Schneiderlin subbed off before half-time.

Tottenham playing with no verve, passion or guile. Oddly out of sorts. Looks like they all had 20 mg of Valium with their breakfast Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

A badly written article.

Yea that made me nauseous too.

Over 4 years on and Judas is still injured, while Shaw is at long last rehabilitated.

Tremendous.

I think this has mostly been covered in the thread: "The Issue of St Mary’s"

I suspected as much....

A few short seasons ago we bestrode south coast football like a colossus, and our legions of fans could s****** at the minnows either side of us that spanned the length of Wessex from Hove to Argyle. Now, we are careering down a path to being eclipsed by Bournemouth and Brighton.

^ why are Newcastle exempted? Especially given that the away fans are watching from low-earth orbit where they put them!

Lallana looked like an utter c nut when he came on. Nothing changes.
