I completely disagree. We were going backwards under Still and getting steadily worse, not better. That Blackburn game in particular was without doubt the single worst team performance I've ever watched us attempt. Nobody had the slightest fucking clue what they were supposed to be doing that day. I've seen Sunday league teams still pissed from the night before play with better organisation. As poor as we have been recently, we're still nowhere near that level of utter shitness yet. We at least look a little more organised now than then. The problem is we're still coughing up easy chances game after game because of individual errors, and we've forgotten where the net is at the other end. BTW - this is in no way an endorsement of Tonda. I still firmly believe he was a fucking terrible appointment and should never even have been considered, let alone given the job.

Yep. No doubt with one of his comedy, trying-to-make-it-look-accidental-but-failing-miserably fouls that he is seemingly so fond of. I'd rather put Bragg in for the Pompey game anyway. At least as an academy product he understands the meaning of the derby. Don't think I'll be able to watch Downes wandering about aimlessly and passing it sideways and backwards at FP without putting my foot through the TV.

Yep. If you take out that purple patch in November and extrapolate our PPG from the runs of games either side of it, we would currently be sitting on about 21 points, with only the basket case of Wednesday keeping us off bottom.

Indeed. It all started with getting the recruitment of Ralph's replacement catastrophically wrong, and they've learned nothing from that experience.

Seems that way. Anyone with any kind of managerial pedigree would take one look at the utter shit show going on behind the scenes (and you can bet that people in the game / agents etc... will know more than the rest of us do) and say 'nah you're alright. No amount of money could persuade me to sign up for that'.

I don't think we are in a relegation fight, because there's not a single one of the useless pricks in our squad that even knows what the word means.

But we still manage to find a way to lose anyway. It's the Southampton way.

I like your thinking, but then we'd just have Fellows at RB, which would just be even more stupid than playing him as a WB.

Can we get Led By Donkeys to do one of their projector displays with this on the front of SMS please? 🙏

Nah, that would be too obvious. It's not the Southampton way.

Someone please email this to Dragan.

Was there any chants against SR at the end of there game? Could hear some chanting after but Adam and Jo were talking over it so I couldn't tell if it was us or the Hull fans celebrating.

I thought that was unnecessary when you aimed it at Tonda. Not so in this instance though.

1. 100% on Manning, that. Just so casual in the way he knocked it straight back. Quarshie tried desperately to get to it but Manning's pass was straight to McBurnie FFS. 2. Haven't seen another angle to get an idea if Peretz could have done better, but it's all on Downes and Wood who were both marking the same player but both failed to actually challenge for the header. Fucking pathetic defending.

Anyone still confident of playoffs? Anyone? Make no mistake - we are in a relegation fight now. I say fight, but there's very little evidence of that on display from any of our players.
