  1. 50/50 which includes Martin as well, the summer recruitment under his watch was utterly poor for the amount spent. Heard it said that Juric has lost the dressing room, I don’t think he ever had it. It’s one thing bringing in discipline and hard work but you need to be able to bring the majority of the players along with you, he really looks to have only had a negative impact on the mollycoddled twats in our squad. Shit show all round really, I maintain a decent coach and a better transfer summer could have had us at least giving the likes of wolves, Leicester and Ipswich a little company. Which is really a quite remarkably low benchmark.

    I didn’t watch today as I was on airport duty but listened on the radio. The summary was scathing; only Ramsdale did anything slightly decent, the rest of the side “threw the towel in”. We knew at the start of the season it would be a massive ask to stay up, simply no chance of competing in this league when those players gave completely given up. Unforgivable really.
  3. Looks like we’re all over them….
  4. When we saw the U formation with Rusty you thought “I hope he learns his lesson here and never does that again”. This geezer seems to have taken it as a blueprint. It’s just a tactical immediate surrender of centre midfield, time and again.
  5. I doubt it. I don’t see a scenario where we play James Bree in a centre back partnership.
  6. Fuck me, he’s starting Aribo at CB.
  7. His profile says he last visited saintsweb on Thursday at 8pm.
  8. I think Dr Who is the one who made up some complete bunkum about new boy Johannes Spores. Tried to appear itk but got his facts completely muddled. So I’m gonna go out on a limb and suggest he might, just maybe, be full of it.
  9. Quite right. 0-5 at half time to Tottenham was perfectly good. Admirable, even. Definitely gotten worse since that display. No doubt.
  10. Had some of this at Christmas with the cheese board, it was frigging delicious.
  11. Out of interest, how are you going to police point one? What does that look like in practise?
  12. It must be hard work constantly being so miserable and downhearted across multiple social media platforms. Still, its something to pass the time, I suppose.
  13. I remember something like that happening but it wasn’t the Spurs game. Saints had a bad ref call against them and Martin was on the pitch at half time and/or full time telling the ref that he’d cost him his job. Cant remember which game it was but def a bit before the Spurs capitulation.
  14. This. I keep hearing on here “what else can he do with these players”? As if player selection and formation make zero difference. As ever, it’s a lot more nuanced than that. The players we have got are largely sub standard but even a reasonable manager is able to recognise this and mitigate it with selections and formations. Both Martin and now Juric seem utterly incapable. Our side against Burnley was a disgrace. So was this one today. We have a limited squad but there’s no excuse for us being quite as abhorrently awful as we look.
  15. 3 full backs on the pitch, 3 on the bench. Excellent stuff.
  16. Here you go Bournemouth, please go right ahead and dominate our central midfield would you please. We won’t put up a fight.
  17. Leicester fans are doing more that protesting against one person. The whole thing is called Project Reset and asks for more than getting rid of Rudkin. You can learn more about it here. https://www.leicestermercury.co.uk/sport/football/football-news/what-project-reset-leicester-city-9946950
  18. I hope not, that’s absolutely pathetic 🤣
  19. Nice one, I do wordle every day so I think I’ll add this one to it as well. Although looks like it doesn’t update every day.
  20. Well that’s cheered me right up 👍
  21. IIRC “aswell” is very much a South African thing. And I never met a nice one of them…
