That is harsh! He isn't just an ice hockey coach. He writes cheesy motivational books as well...

The parachute payments are not remotely "juicy", the club will have a significant drop in income if relegated. It is a financial disaster to go down and they are far better off appointing someone competent and staying up.

Looks like Nordic Saint is unaware we can all see who voted for each option!

Hard to see why any Saints fan wouldn't vote 'sack him'. But it is unlikely to be 100%, as any poll can easily be skewed by Skates and/or trolls.

Brain transplant with a competent manager?

Based on what?

Can you give specific examples?

We deserve to go down if we are in the bottom 3 after 38 games. I'm not sure how anyone can justify after 27 games that a club "deserves" to go down.

Southampton have scored more Premier League goals this season than... 1 - Stoke City 2 - West Brom 3 - Huddersfield 4 - Swansea City 5 - Crystal Palace 6 - Brighton 7 - Newcastle 8 - Burnley

Apart from the **** up for the opening goal, he did well today.

...

Strachan has been out of club management for a long time! - His last club job was 7 years ago ... which he failed in - His last top flight job in a major league was 14 years ago! (us) Really wouldn't be a good idea to go back to him.

What about the situation is "too late"? Sack him tomorrow morning and any new manager has 2 weeks before the next league game, 1 point from safety, a reasoanble goal difference advantage over some rivals, a good squad of players compared to rivals and 11 games to do better than at least 3 other clubs.

I'll maintain the quality of the squad isn't the problem. Burnley are 7th, how many of their players would you want in our squad? I think Southampton's is superior man for man in terms of individual quality... the difference is our manager isn't any good & it is costing us... big time!

If Saints are relegated then it isn't face saving, face saving would be to realise Pellegrino is costing us big time and sack him!

Why is not sacking Pellegrino "doing whats best for them"? If Saints are relegated then those three would take a hit financially and it might even cost them their jobs.

Oh joy... a nice positive Batman thread

It is Pellegrino's job to motivate them... something he is failing spectacularly to do!

In an ideal world I wouldn't particularly want Mark Hughes either. But I'd feel a lot more confident for the rest of the season with Hughes in charge... than Pellegrino.

Losing to Liverpool is fine in isolation, they have a significantly larger income, larger budget and better players. However... the lack of a tactical plan, poor organisation, slow tempo & unmotivated players in the 2nd half was shocking! Pellegrino needs to go!

Och-noooo! My mask is slipping... Back on message, back on message...

Speak for yourself! I'd rather the mid table teams lose. A win tomorrow could see us only 2 points away from the top half of the table.
