Give it to Ron

talkSPORT’s man on the south coast added: “I think he is there for the long haul. He signed a new contract before the season started. “The release clause in that contract, if a top club wanted to take him, is £20million. So that’s a significant amount of money to pay if someone wants to prise him away. “I do expect him to be there for the foreseeable future, but he does need to make some adjustments. it came from Crook so probably bull

There is a 20m release clause....according to Crook and Talkshite today

Great another one that can’t read

I haven’t said that he is a helpless victim but whether we like it or not he needs to do better tactically. I thought against Burnley he got it spot on bringing on Salisu to bolster the back line but how many games has he failed to react like Brighton at home. I do believe we are a hostage though until Gao goes unless we utilise the new sponsorship money but if we replace him with someone like Howe we will just be same as now. How long do you feel he has until you feel he has had enough? What would you do?

Read what I said again where did I say that it was Watson etc? I said we should replace them with someone that is tactically better and and can help a manager that’s is failing badly that we can’t afford to sack so that is a solution to use what wages we have and improve the staff not difficult to understand really is it.

You do get it that we have no money? Every penny that pays him off means less funds for transfers? He signed a 4 year deal in 2020 he isn’t going to cost 3m as you suggested recently to get rid of. I suggest we would be far better off getting rid of Watson, Davis etc and get in someone that can talk him into changing shape and tactics.

Because we changed the shape can’t you see that Adams is different player to them?

Eddie Howe ....the one who failed at Burnley spent a fortune at Bournemouth on rubbish? The Eddie Howe who is such a great coach whose defence was a shambles he couldn’t change tactics and stop them getting relegated I can see why you clowns want him. Ralph is useless in long periods and loses the plot tactically too often can’t change it but you think Howe is answer give me strength!!

Depends like Leeds Saturday was initially yellow but tackle deemed to be reckless so upped to red. I honestly have no idea anymore what is and isn’t as it is a lottery depending who is sat watching Var. It’s not being used for what was designed for.

A bit more than the 20k some idiot on here suggested. I think under Semmens etc we will be run a bit better than previous lot so basically what we can afford to pay . I think around 60-70k won’t be far off.

So you think he belongs in Championship still or not?

But they aren’t are they we are trying to renew it so how are we letting it run down? This time last year would you have wanted us to renew it?

Look at this thread for one as an example! it’s just a shame people like you feel the need to criticise him so much. He isn’t the finished article but still trying to find his way in Prem but he is very much a confidence striker. I think with time and support from management he will prove you wrong. He is a lower half Prem striker and that’s what we paid for and anyone that thinks he isn’t ......I watched Raheem Sterling miss 5 easy 1v1 against San Marino last week.

Easy ride you must be joking.....

Given how many times you have posted on this I take it you don’t rate him!

Exactly this...he gets and understands what Ralph wants. On Sunday Burnley had a break on it was Theo that spotted it chased and won ball back his role isn’t just attacking.

Why he said surely we can do better ...who ? he is one questioning it not scouting department.

I’m still waiting.......

“Must be skint” no shit Sherlock!!

Norwich 5 up at h/t

Who can we get for the money, experience, desire to play for us, ability ? Interested to know who you think is better?

There is a new super yacht arriving in Southampton this morning......just saw it can’t see any ear lobes though

To clubs who don’t play them because they are crap

You think a 3 year contract would only cost us 3m? Ok I am not sure I agree with you go and have a look at Mark Hughes pay off

No it didn’t Burnley were always going to throw the kitchen sink at us bringing on Salisu added another body in way to win and allow us to break on them. It was his plan B that you all moan about he doesn’t have today he did and you still moan Cult of Ralph FFS how fcking childish are our fans jeesh come on explain how we sack him and staff without a pot to piss in? To be clear I am not his biggest fan but we are stuck with him for a while yet.
