Jesus Christ no. His last few jobs have ended horrendously, including taking Blackburn down to league one, and he has serious health issues.

50% of them under Will Still in the last 12 games 😉

As others have said I'm not sure he's interested in getting back into management.

They say never go back in football. Would be feel there's unfinished business maybe? I still think he'll have offers abroad in top flights though.

I'm from the school of thought that they're professionals and should be able to, but Shea getting injured kind of proves his point. And Leo isn't exactly well built, I can see him running out of steam. It's just bringing on Stephens for him that was fucking indefensible. Even if he'd brought on the young lad up top, put Fraser on the left and Armstrong back out right it would have made more sense. Stephens just ran around in circles looking confused, I'm not sure he made a single tackle or pass.

Looking at available managers and ruling out the likes of Ange who would be obviously unrealistic, the best we can hope for would be someone like Gerrard or Carrick.

Read it again. Three 90 minutes in a week is what he said.

Stills interview; "Same story different day, should be 3 up, then we make mistakes and defend poorly that cost us goals. (About Scienza) I can understand fans frustration, we know a lot of players who can't play 3 games in a week, Shea wasn't supposed to but had to and now he's injured. I'd rather take Leo off than have him injured for three months, but it backfired and didn't work. We're in a really poor position in the league with a lot of things to work on and improve. It's gotta be someone's fault, it's the way the world works that I'll be under pressure. I know the team should be killing games off and winning these games and we haven't gone and done it. Shea's out for a long while now, need to get a few back from illness, but most importantly we need to work on putting it in the net. I'm not gonna stop, until someone tells me to. I think the last few games we've had the game under control and just not killed them off." Wish Blackmore pushed him harder on Stephens coming on and the thinking behind it. Why not go like for like and keep an attacking outlet up top if Leo needs to come off?

Simon Rusk is available.

I wouldn't be surprised if he is gone. I think at the very least he'll have to explain himself.

"You're not fit to wear the shirt" from the Saints fans as they go over. I think the players are still fully behind him tbh, Scienza telling the fans to calm down and "we need you".

I'm obviously in the minority here. I was saying we should sack Martin when he got us promoted, and told everyone we would go down with record low points if we kept him - he came very close to proving me right, thank god we got rid. I still think the things he wants to do will eventually come good for us but today he's absolutely bottled it.

Azaz off with cramp, Quarshie limping, basically down to 8. Not sure why people are saying Blackmore is defending Still - he just said "this has all come about from the substitutions of Will Still".

The issue becomes when nothing improves under the next manager. 10 games gone? Next one, 10 games gone? It's not like under Martin where he kept saying "this is how we want to play". We aren't where Still wants us to be yet, so I'd rather give him the chance to get us there than change again and again and again.

How the fuck is that a red card????

I would still prefer to give him half a season but I honestly think he might get sacked after this. That Stephens sub is just completely indefensible.

He'll say that he'd faded out the game, which is true, but taking him off you lose him as the option. And Azaz had been poor all game whereas Scienza just hadnt been involved for 15 minutes or so.

Honestly think he may well be. I'd love to hear his justification for it.

Wish the Saints fans would spend the remaining time of the game singing Scienzas chant.

Put the lube away you cunt.

Yeah, he's getting sacked.

They've had one more shot than we have.

No, this performance is not worse than when we conceded 9 goals you moron.

Blackmore is such an utter retard, Bragg comes on with no number on so he thinks he isn't wearing a shirt and is in a training top.

Fuck off.
