He wanted first team football. He wasn't getting it at Saints, ergo, leaving would be a logical path to take. Perhaps we should be applauding his ambition and desire rather than getting parochial about it...?

Why weren't people coming out with this sort of stuff a couple of months ago...? Surely the ownership was just as bad during the whole of 2020 when we were the 5th or 6th best team in the country in the calendar year...?

I'd take a 9-0 defeat every season if it was accompanied by top 6 form the rest of the time rather than wall-to-wall average performances.

How do you know things won't recover again like last time?

Surely, if there's one lesson to learn from the previous 9-0 result it's not to make knee-jerk decisions...?

And then went on a superb 12 month run (top 6 form over 38 games). Maybe judge him on that too rather than one game...?

Yeah, I can't work out if this just doubles the amount of "9-0" grief we get or if one dilutes the other! Doesn't feel quite as deflated as I did after the Leicester game as we didn't give up today and were on the receiving end of some dubious decisions. Hey ho... We get knocked down, we get up again...

Ralph looks distraught. Wouldn't be surprised if he walked

Difference between this and the Leicester game is that we didn't throw in the towel at half time. Small consolations

Penalised for trying to pull out of the tackle. I give up with these fucking laws

Cant be arsed to wait for the game to finish... Next!

It's part of the plan you ignoramus (no offence). We always go on a 30 game top 6 form streak after our annual mauling. Happy days

Commentators loving this

Open goal miss by Adams. We're not going to get back into this I sense...

Yeah, hadn't noticed that... If they're gonna draw a perpendicular line for the striker then they've got to do it for the defender too, surely? Bollocks... 5-0

Confirmation that the freeze-frame was taken AFTER the ball had been struck... They need to start taking into account the inaccuracy of the technology. You can't measure to millimetre accuracy when the frame rate doesn't give you the requisite level of accuracy

I'll miss you on match threads

Fuck off VAR you utter ****

Get in!!!!!

It's quite funny to read the over the top knee jerk reactions though. Excellent comedy value. Keep it up folks

Yep, because displaying that level of petulance is bound to attract a barrel load of clubs to want to sign you... #facepalm

If we didn't come out for the second half and thus forfeited the game, what sort of fine / points docking would we get?
