Mr X

The system which doesn't work

Sports Republic have kind of made a rod for their own backs now.... They can't really go actually it wasn't the coaches... It was Ralph after all... Hence they will stick with him untill they have absolutely no choice...not sure when that choice will be forced upon them.. only huge dissent in the fan base may force their hand if another repeat performance against Everton

Got to love an overcomplicated poll, should have been a simple do you want Ralph to be manager of the club yes or no

It was a horrendous performance no doubt, villa were only marginally better but still managed a goal, literally no one in our team played well & we barely strung two passes together, the villa keeper was literally a spectator! Think most think Ralph's time has come as he's both wildly inconsistent and wildly stubborn and most of the time just plain crazy with the lineups/tactics but don't think SR feel the same or he would have gone ages ago.

Bar another repeat of Friday nights performance I think Ralph is still here to stay he always seems to muster the absolute bare minimum for them not to pull the trigger.... That said it's a very low bar as Ralph wouldn't have survived this long anywhere else that's for sure

Hope you have a spare saying PLEZE LESTER TAKE RALF AWAY! 🤣

Saints extend their failing to win away from home in the Premier League after trailing at half-time to an incredible 104 games Scary stat 🤣

A defence that still hasn't kept many clean sheets think the last one was in the cup ages ago

Redmond wasn't great but think we can all agree no worse than elyonoussi who starts nearly every game

There won't be a change, they accept all Ralph's wild inconsistencies for the occasional narrow win over the top six. He has the safest job in the premier League so no need for him to bust a gut.. all on a 6 million contract

The fact is Ralph has served up ridiculously inconsistent form pretty much since he's been here, one run of form aside (a false dawn of many, which after we went on our worst run of losing ever) he has also overseen our heaviest defeat twice. The owners know this and are happy as the only target is to stay in this league... To us that's success. However last night was in some ways worse than the 9-0's, we simply didn't look like a football team full stop, couldn't put more than two passes together, players looking totally lost, noone even wanting the ball at one point, noone even rallying the team, no grit, no urgency to even get a point.... Like we didn't want to be there and couldn't be bothered... In short a shambles! it's hard to argue that Ralph deserves the job but some will & that's fine. I don't see how a new manager with fresh ideas and talented youngsters available is not the way forward , Ralph seems so stale and stubborn his inability to recognise his own failings even will be our downfall.

It's not just the defeat it's the manner of it... No grit no effort.... Nothing

How many lives has Ralph got?

So bad we may as well have signed villa over the three points at the start! as we've clearly even gift wrapped them

Walcott springs to mind

Ralph and the team need a serious look at themselves after tonight... None of them have turnt up!

They did the thing that counts though!

Jesus Christ noone wants the ball

How many false dawn's is that under Ralph now? 😂

70 mins without a shot on target and barely a touch in their penalty area

I'd rather have a bloke I hate that gets results more consistently

5 shots none on target 😂

Disgusting performance this.... truly awful

We are a complete shambles tonight!

Elyonoussi the tesco value Redmond and that's saying something 😂
