Like all clubs Saints have some average players amongst the squad but what makes the difference in our performances is how the club now seems to have a unique ability to totally ruin (or alternatively sell!) the very good players that we have. Changing managers every 5 minutes also does nothing to get the best out of players or to provide any cohesion within the team. Who’d want to come to Saints in the current environment to “improve” their career?

Not sure how Tonda is going to spin that shite show

Good God. What on earth were SR thinking. Out of the frying pan and into the incinerator.

70% possession. Most of that in backwards and sideways passes. Can’t help but think that every time Stevens appears we end up going full Russball. He’s definitely not the only problem but on current evidence the Championship is the right place for Saints. Assuming we don’t eventually get sufficiently shite to end up in League 1 Christmas ruined again by Saints. Dark Days.

He’s probably the best player in the Championship at the moment - beyond that I can’t speculate. Hopefully he’s not visited Flynn Downes’ house for a chicken curry 😬

He’s either a genius with scary eyes who will inspire the players to soar into the top six en route to the promised land of the Premier League or another SR catastrophe. Can’t see it being in between.

Really not sure what to think about this appointment. On the one hand you can’t argue that the team are playing vastly better football under Eckert but he’s not the experienced Championship campaigner many were calling for. This is either going to be an inspired appointment or a crash and burn disaster. It won’t be anything in between. On balance I think it’s the former. We’ll know by Christmas what way it’s going.

Russell Martin?? FFS! What is happening in our club when players, some of them shite ones, are apparently actively involved in selecting the manager??

I am expecting a very painful day out next Saturday. Anything less will be a miracle. Without doubt Saints are in the biggest crisis the club has faced for decades. There is no easy way out of this shambles. Sacking the manager won’t immediately turn this shit storm around. The club needs wholesale reform from top to bottom - and new owners to begin that process.

THB is a massive part of Saints reverting to Russball when we’re under a bit of pressure. He seems programmed to backwards and sideways passing and can’t break free of that. The very rare times he passed a ball forward on Saturday he either overhit it straight off the pitch or passed it directly to the opposition. Not sure what’s happened to him, even allowing for the disruption caused by his pre season injury.

Probably the worst and most uninspiring Presser for months, not helped by some awful and poorly thought out questions from the Press. Pretty much sums up the current state of the club tbh.

Bournemouth and Brighton seem capable of putting together decent Premier League teams. That in itself tells you all you need to know about our ownership. It’s obvious that our ownership is the core of our problem.

Solid win coming up. Bed wetters cease wetting. Panic over.

Indeed. Horrific throw back to Russball. Row Z clearance surely?? But NO. Let’s fuck it up the Saints way!!

I like Still’s Press Cons. Beyond that I’m starting to wonder. We have talented players at this level who are currently putting in solid League 2 performances. Anyone else starting to wonder about Will Still?
