Give it to Ron

Far too sensible for these useless clueless idiots if nearly every fan can see it - I was going to say why can’t they but they refuse to.

Stewart comes on and we take off our best crosser we then put Stewart deeper than Armstrong. I couldn’t hate this lot more oh but probably will next Sunday absolutely gutless and clueless. Leo was terrible and what have our coaches done to Jander he has regressed so badly it’s unbelievable

Dykes went to Charlton - that’s Lyndon not any other sexual version

So who is going to score the goals to keep us up Archer ? Because Stewart will miss months of the season and who else is there? SR don’t seem interested in a number 9 and if Downs is their standard

Plus Larios sold too another gem of a transfer for SR

I think he will be given time as he is Spors main choice. If Spors leaves then it may change but I believe he will be given time to learn and grow in the job. SR don’t seem to want promotion this season so Tonda is their man. Whether results or fans change that I don’t know but I have no faith in either and feel detached from this shower.

Miles Leaburn at Charlton was a right handful in our game 22 goals in 99 games

Tomorrow? Saints are 4-0 up

Goals for Jimmy Jay Morgan and Ballard so far

Sorry for your loss I have very similar memories with mine who died 6 years ago miss him every day and our Saints chats

Would he hold up development of Bragg too? With Shea, Jander , Downes and Romeu plus the other youngsters coming through we are well covered centrally

Disgrace £120!!!!

Versus Leeds was like a choice of kick in the nuts or punch in the mouth

I always say George Best most natural footballer, Bobby Moore best defender, Gordon Banks best keeper And Keegan the most hard working forward have seen his hard work got him to great heights . Speedy recovery and hope he can beat it.

Point 1 is bang on if we don’t get a forward and rely on Stewart again …but with Downs off we surely will bring in someone. Keeper looks done. Shea back will help. I think it was Dowie who at Palace bottom at Christmas then got promoted it can be done . Its the management and above that concerns me - have done some good things infrastructure wise but the most important they fail badly and just do not learn.

So we don’t have a big lump but Azaz, Manning, Fellows are over 6ft and pushing a defender wide too is better option at times. Its meant to draw sides to you but teams like Millwall are brilliant at pressing best have seen this year plus they had 3 of biggest defenders have seen! I don’t get why he hasn’t tried both Archer and Armstrong up front putting ball down sides turn them round. Edwards, Wellington stay at home full backs, Jander - Downes holding , Pick 2 c/h, Fellow and Leo wide. At least give that a try make us harder to beat through midfield

Agreed but passing the ball in the 6 yard box doesn’t help that from restarts we even had Jander do one! I agree with your Leo point him coming in field has narrowed the space and easier to mark when we had Leo and Fellows wide it created space and they drove us up the pitch we didn’t just have the THB out ball

…..also got us the lowest points total in our history!

But the point is the tempo has dropped and reverting to slow tempo across the back I won’t upset you and call it Russball means the space is lessened because the opposition gets back and fills the space. When we were moving it faster WBA, Leicester we were creating our own space and chances . We should have enough quality to create that space against the poorer teams we played recently and again I would argue it’s our tempo that allows opponents to nullify us. We agree on alternative's and still can’t believe we gambled on Stewart fitness and a 6m German 2 player .

But that’s the point you are either too naive or crazy to understand that our tempo has slowed against poor sides in the bottom of league and we are not doing what we did against better sides surely even a clever chap like you could see that ? Surely having better players than those we should dictate the pace and tempo? Oh also Brum had 4 players out so of course changed tactics they had to but you knew that of course

I went to away game with Brum fans who were at SMS and in pub after game they couldn’t believe the difference in the 2 games how our tempo had changed. Neither Norwich or Oxford were reactive though so that isn’t correct at all. Of course Fellows injury and Leo being cotton wooled through Christmas meant we were not as dynamic but things have changed and it’s not for the better and I’m not sure Tonda has the know how to correct it clique or not

Sorry I disagree if you don’t think our tactics v Birmingham h. , Leicester, WBA were different than Birmingham away Norwich, Millwall, Oxford you are watching different games. In the winning period we got the ball forward far quicker there was very little slow passing it was done at pace and risk now there is nothing.

But the issue with that is it’s been a long time since it was successful including 12 points in a season! Our best play was the Charlton to Millwall games not playing Russball but now reverted to it and it’s crap again and so are the “clique” if there is one. Something stinks here the tempo has dropped ridiculously back to useless standards….why?

Do you think win percentages of 25 and 26 are good then? You sum up the malaise in the club accepting rubbish and low appointments expecting players to listen and perform to someone who has achieved what? SR have lowered the expectations from a Prem club, Ralph, Koeman, Strachan, Hoddle to now thinking a Colchester and Gas failure is acceptable and going to work alongside a 32 year old who has lost the plot.
