Playoffs at best. Already 11 points off automatic.

No, we need new keeper though.

Shocking result against a team second bottom, devoid of confidence and already adrift. Very saintsy.

We showed throughout the game we are capable of ripping into Rotherham and creating chances if we attack. But between 25-75 mins it seems the players were told to just play keep ball. The amount of backwards passes and negative movements was unnatural.

Not sure it'd help. With all the backward passes he'll never get a touch 😉

Aribo and Mara coming. That means goals goals goals..

We have let them back into this and instilled belief in their team by sitting back and getting to this stage without scoring again. First few mins we were all over them, so clearly capable. We've been told to sit back.

Yep we have no mental fortitude at all.

Save Bazunu. Rotherhams game plan has worked.

Lets hope we don't lose.. Could easily.

Saw it coming to be fair. We'll squander the points. No excuse.

Saints being Saints, they'll let Rotherham back into it.. At least we made some attacking changes.

It'll take a Rotherham goal for us to attack. We seem to have been told to just keep the ball and not try to score. A return of Russball

Total dominance. But nothing much to show for it so far..

The Armstrong of last season would never had tried the chip. Great to see him confident again and scoring goals.

Got to be looking to follow this up with a winning run. 3 in the next 4 and the season is back on track. The much critised Adam Armstrong on 7 goals for the season already. He has found his level.

I was there last time we went 3-0 up at half time to Leeds. We lost 4-3 if memory serves..

I fear sacking him will make no difference. The rot is still well and truly set in, and it's deeper than the manager. They'll just appoint another idiot.

I don't expect us to get relegated. But I do expect us to lose the next game heavily against Leeds (Piroe Hat Trick) which will make it 5 defeats. At some point that has to stop, or I'll have to change my expectations.

RM hasn't been unable to arrest the slide since the 5-0. He put out a better team today, with players in their positions. But even that hasn't been enough. Honestly most of the time the players look like they can't be arsed. How did we actually win 3 games?

Bring back Ralph! I reckon he could do it if he was willing.

The new players have come into a disjointed team who were already low on confidence. With the right manager, improvement is possible. But RM doesn't seem to be the motivational kind, who can inject energy and belief. To shake off the cobwebs of last year and get us looking forwards and upwards. He's utterly boring to listen to most of the time. None of the players have brought into his ideas; and why should they? He's a nobody manager with no record of success anywhere.

Basically, despite some improvements, today could easily have been 3 or 4-1 and yet another thrashing. And still could be. Need a manager who can inject some belief in the team not send them to sleep.

Yes like what we've seen from Leeds and Leicester.

Probably, yes. 3-1 or something.
