Remember the Branfoot days, and it wasn’t just the younger fans protesting in the car park. The Port Vale game sticks in my mind. Is it an age and generation thing ? We’re now older, and for the younger group they probably do their ‘protest’ by social media. Did anything come of the suggested pre-match meet up and protest ?

Yes, the art of dither is alive and well at SFC.

Bollocks to having a Sporting Director. Just appoint a White Witch.

Trouble is Saints don’t make the decisions soon enough. Lego was here a couple of months longer than he should have been. This season, Rangers sacked him a few hours after a match, Forest got rid of Ange about 20 minutes after the final whistle. What do Spors, Parsons and co do after another piss poor showing. Whatever it is, about time they called time on this farce.

I heard that. How much fucking time did he want ? He had all pre-season, it wasn’t a late in the day appointment. Even allowing for the late arrivals to the end of the window he’s had long enough to motivate and shape the team. Some on here were praising the club for making the early appointment. The point I made at the time was it was more important to get the right appointment rather than a quick one. We certainly failed on that count.

Shames me to say it, but not a bad idea.

But he’ll turn it round. Give him time and about another £50m at the next transfer window. All aboard with the “Mong Army “

Was he there today then ?

I suspect that will be the way they go, initially as an interim then until the end of season once realising there are few if any credible options available or who want to come here. Not that they've ever worried about whether an option is that credible before judging by the Jones and Still appointments.

Will they take Nivea as well ?

Pathetic.

We suffer watching it though.

And dread over who they might appoint. t

This should have been obvious to a fucking idiot when he was appointed.

Hull, or Derby for me.

Going back to their cars to collect their pitchforks.

Should have gone weeks ago. Feel sorry for him, in a position well above his experience, back up coaches (including Nivea) that have been foisted on him, and piss poor recruitment. But tactics and substitutions are his responsibility, and he hasn’t excelled in this area.

Think theres a song in there somewhere: "Just the four wins ... .. playing football the Sports Republic way ..."

Well if isn’t broken … and all that ..

But you can imagine our muppetry management thinking of bringing him back….

Martin back to Swansea or Norwich fine. But to us ? Big ‘Fuck Off’ to that. For all his failings I’d stick withStill in preference to Lego.

Expect we’ll end up letting them go before us leaving us with the leftover available managers to choose from.

Just seen that Vierra has been sacked at Genoa who are bottom of Serie A. https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/articles/cd7rr2j58gwo Wasn’t Genoa and their parent company,777, Spors previous set up before coming to Saints ?

Agree it's a good rallying call, and of course headline. But noticed this in the article Does that include not bringing Stephens on for Scienza , or other ludicrous substitutions in future ?

Can't disagree with any of that.
