Yep, given we're unlikely to convince an 'established name' manager to take the helm if we part ways with Russ, count me in the "Might as well give Lallana a crack of the whip - nothing to lose" camp.

One of my favourite forum members. Would like to meet MLG myself one of these days too.

Two games to go before I clamber down from off my perch. Probably no prizes for guessing which way I'm leaning at this juncture though....

I believe the word you're looking for is 'contraian'... (And to confirm, he'll duly disagree with this post shortly... )

I floated this conspiracy theory in semi-jest earlier in the season. I'm also starting to wonder if it's not as far-fetched a notion as it originally seemed....

FFS Facebook... Please stop posting these memories on my timeline straight after our latest defeat...! Eleven years ago today... 😭

The trouble with Stewart is that he appears to pick up regular "not bad" injuries which, accumulatively, results in a "bad" length of time out of the squad (reference the perpetual "he'll be back in two weeks" declarations over the last year...)

Stop moaning FFS!

You say that, but someone sent Rudolf Schenker through the post once upon a time...

The usual idiots on Facebook responding to a "beware, there are kids knocking on people's doors" post with "yeah, but we all did it as kids..." No. No we didn't. Yes, the thick kids did. Us more intelligent children were clever enough to find stuff to do that didn't involve distressing or inconveniencing the local neighbourhood. Thick twats.

Not sure how worthy this is of discussion....?

It could be worse...

Indeed. The "told you so" syndrome has worked both ways on here on the past, and will continue to do so whilst human beings have different opinions... If we were comfortably nestled in mid-table right now, there'd be plenty of "told you so"s on the other side of the divide puffing their chests as we speak... If I had my way, we'd all be sitting on the fence rather than craving a medal for how "right" we are at any given moment in time....

Name 5 forum members who don't think our squad is anything other than "strong championship" level.... (Clue: you won't be able to)

What we should've done is keep the island and send anyone with an IQ less than 130 at the age of 11 there for the rest of their lives. Bingo! No more thickos!

The proliferation of bands/artists releasing "special" 20th/30th/40th/50th anniversary versions of old albums. Stop milking your gullible fans to boost your pension pots and start making some new music you lazy ****ing twats.

Make that 2-0

Relax... Since when has the current ownership group made any bonkers decisions during their tenure...? Ah...

I went through similar with my son at the same age... Happened to coincide with our slide down to League One and away days Vs Dagenham & Redbridge, so maybe tell your son l "it could be worse!"... He's now in his 20s and actually thanks me for "forcing" him to support Saints as he'd rather support a 'proper' football team than one of the plastics. Persevere!
