Congratulations to him…but really! they must be really scratching around. If that’s obviously based on performances for us….bloody hell.

We were lucky that Leeds weren’t at the races. they owned us second half.

Lucky win. but I’ll take it.

I’ll be honest. his distribution in the last couple of games has been exceptional. Unfortunately he is usually shit at stopping goals.

I woke up with unbridled enthusiasm and optimism. watched the Martin presser ….its all downhill from here. 🤷🏻‍♂️ lose today …I want the cunt gone. And Will be difficult to find any love for anyone at the club. since ‘75 I’ve done my bit…..but I struggle now to muster any love towards Southampton FC. It is what it is. a clusterfuck. 🤷🏻‍♂️

My skate mates are having a fucking field day. And it’s been going on for fucking years. 🤦🏻

I’m just hoping there are 3 worse teams than us come the end of the season. that’s our trajectory….down. And the skates passing us in the opposite direction. 🤷🏻‍♂️🤦🏻

Seems quite appropriate ‘Take That’ are scheduled to play St Marys in 2024. With titles such as ‘The Circus’ and I’m running out of ‘Patience’

The way things are heading we will be swapping leagues with the skates. fuck me how much longer to we have to sufffer the endless shite season after season,game after game. 🤦🏻

And of course…Onuachu scores on his debut for Trabzonspor. 🤷🏻‍♂️

We seem to be in the habit of appointing managers that are so set on their way of playing that they are totally inflexible to find a way to nullify the opposition. we all know the way Pep likes to set up,and what he expects…but it never stops him from changing it just enough to counteract the opponents. Us however,employ someone who is so rigid that nothing will change their mindset. despite who’s injured,suspended etc…nope it will be the same way. despite us all seeing that it’s not feasible,they still fucking do it. you have to be willing to compromise,but Hasenhuttl baulked against it…jones was never going to change….and now I see it in Martin. fuck me…hearing his Sky interview post match…he’s now even sounding like Jones,barring the accent.

We were warned. it’s like Jones all over again. clueless and so many shortcomings it’s incredible. they didn’t even look like they were playing for him. he talks a good game,but shambolic in implementing it. same old same old.

I stand by what I said at the moment of his appointment….Martin will struggle to make Christmas in post.

Injured in Chelsea training today. muscle tear at the ankle.

Oh I don’t know…the last time in the lower echelons,league one and the Championship,we had probably one hell of a squad and resources then to, at our disposal. but Adkins buggered it up. only made runners up. 🤷🏻‍♂️ 😁

From what appears a reputable source…. 15 mins ago…..Southampton forward Sekou Mara is in early talks about joining French giants Lille. The France Under-21s international is open to a move but it remains at an early stage. Lille reached the Conference League last night and need depth.

Fantastic bit of business. Obviously he’s just been named in the latest England U21 squad….and Edozie gets his first call up too.

Nah…I’m going for Jesse Lingard. 🤷🏻‍♂️

Nice to have a manager that actually manages the situations and is pro active. we’ve not had that for a while. 🤷🏻‍♂️

Our bench is just full of goals. 🤷🏻‍♂️

Todays team sheet will show for the first time we are just a championship side. No Prima Donna’s from a failed premier league squad. And those on the periphery. the mainstay of what we’ve got to work with. And likely to lose more that are slightly above this level of football. relegation is starting to bite.

The way the transfer window is panning out thus far….no one will be getting wood. certainly not me. 🤷🏻‍♂️

There would be serious rebuild if we went up anyway. let’s be honest we were shite when we were last there in the premier league. We’ve pretty much gotten rid of anyone that could even slightly perform in the PL. I wouldn’t want any of the current incumbents anywhere near our squad if we gained promotion. 🤷🏻‍♂️

Suspensions are going to hit hard with the strict rules being applied this season and with the obligatory injuries we need some serious strength in depth. on another point…if we were to get promoted I don’t want Che Adams,or Adam Armstrong included as any of our attacking options again in the Premier League.

Not sure I can bring myself to watch West Ham V Chelsea later…. JWP up against Lavia. (If they both start obviously)
