If we can get a manager playing to our strengths I can see 15/16 points max. So 30/31 points. Bye Prem. We really are going to have to beat some big boys\in-form teams to stand a chance. Too little too late IMO. Just looking at those last 2 games of the season we would need to be on or around 35 points by then. Brighton and Liverpool most probably nil point.

Urgh not Jesse fucking Marsch please! 🤦‍♂️

Remember when Ralph first came in after the disastrous Hughes era (which I turn came after the disastrous Pellegrino and Puel eras)? He instantly turned us into a pressing side, gave us an identity and instantly got us results against big teams. Yes our team now is weaker but any decent manager comes in and makes the best of the players available. It can't be proven but any decent manager could have done a better job than Jones has.

For me Dyche was a no brainer at the time. Never had much of a budget at Burnley and yet kept them up for quite a while punching above their weight with a bloody organised defence. Yes his football isn't attractive but he'd have sorted our shoddy defence out and we have the attacking players to nick a goal or two against the run of play. Not pretty but he would have done. Too late now.

Rather have Chris Wilder over Dean Smith if we're scraping the barrel. Did better in his Prem stint. I wouldn't be against Gerrard building the team next season. Did well at Rangers even if his Villa stint was a bust. Who else is there? Peter Bosz?

I sort of agree although I think it's too late we might as well try. But what we don't want to do is appoint someone to fight the fire then keep them on past the summer like we did with Hughes. Trying to get this team to suddenly play brilliantly and win games is probably beyond the realms of most mortals though. The rot has long since set in. Good riddance to Jones. Wrong choice from the start (which is partly down to the board not him) but he was way out of his depth. I just feel sad that we could have achieved so much more in these three months... but hey ho we march on.

Pellegrino and his Carrillo waste of money will always be top of this list for me. But Jones is top 3 now with Poortvliet. I was only a fleeting Saints fan during the Branfoot era so largely bypassed it. Hughes was pretty crap too. Poortvliet is harsh because he didn't have the money but he was still awful.

I haven't put much thought into this but I'd be inclined to let Stevie G take the job and try building something next season. A la Kompany who has done a fantastic job. As I say i haven't put much thought into it so don't rip me a new one. Either way I think we need to look to next season, someone that can take the remnants of this side post sales and get us up.

Well there goes MOTD for another week. Gotta try and work out where the Championship highlights are these days. (Kidding, the wife is a Norwich fan so I'm well aware where they are!)

Yeah... but at least we could get someone that fucking tries to put the best team out and isn't a twat in interviews.

This evening? Needs to be sacked as soon as the final whistle goes. On the bench. In front of the fans.

25 to 1... it was like printing money and I didn't do it...

Fucking fuck fuck fuck offffff Jonez you cretin

Dear Lord, if you let Saints score a winner I promise I won't invite any ladies over while my wife is away this weekend... 😐

Draw isn't good enough Saints fucks sake

Fuckity fuck off

Skates losing by 2. Palace equaliser. Leicester smashing it against Spuds.

Hattrick y'know.

Tella hattrick

I believe Lavia can play CB and JWP of course can fill in RB but yep bear bones in defence. Need to outscore them so more goals needed IMO.

45 minutes with this result and all of a sudden the table doesn't look so fucking awful. Baby steps.

Please God let us win so I can watch MOTD tonight... I've almost forgotten what the theme tune sounds like...

I bet Nate has a right stiffy currently...

Who called the Lemina sending off....
