To be fair to Blackmore, he’d have cleaned the bloke right out had it been him making contact instead of Baz….

Oh fuck me, he’ll be telling about licking Romney Marsh’s roads clean, and getting up for work 10 mins before going to bed next…

Course we fucking should, I’d expect a keeper to have a better starting position, and read the game better. Even if those 2 things failed him, he should have made more of an effort. Absolutely no blame attached anywhere else, “track the run” my arse, the line was high enough for the keeper to just collect the ball.

This is getting beyond a joke now. Their goal 100% down to him, then a fucking fumble, then remarkably he held onto to the ball too long. Completely unprofessional at the end gifting a corner like that. Fucking shocking, and to think some people defend him…

There’s was absolutely no composure at all, WTF were you watching…

Was Flynn Downes driving?

It was blatantly dishonest to claim they wouldn’t raise taxes, apart from the ones mapped out in the manifesto . Sunak banged on about it over and over, and they denied it over and over. They also lied when they said they wouldn’t be back for more, only 1 year go. Blatant dishonesty, and you’re embarrassing yourself by trying to claim it’s “pledges that can’t be honoured”.

In other words, lies. New broom. 😂😂

Whoever it is needs to be given a decent length contract and given the backing to drain the swamp. It’s time for a “bring your dinner” speech from the powers that be. Introduce the new man “you cunts got the last 3 managers the sack, not this time. He”ll be here longer than you lot & you will all fucking leave before he does”. Look at Ivan, clearly a no nonsense manager, but the players knew they’d see him off. The culture of the club is rotten, but I’m sure there’s some decent young pros in there which given decent role models and proper management will flourish. We’ve had to bring an old pro who has never played in this league to instil some professionalism and desire, when Adam Armstrong, AM, Jack Stephen’s, Downes, Manning, THB, should have been doing so. The senior pros at this club should be fucking ashamed of themselves, and somebody needs to fucking sort them out.

I was being sarcastic….

I’m on the Wagner bus. I believe he’s working for Klopp running the youth side of the group he’s involved iwith.

Why on earth would the cock womble want to come back anyway? Unless he’s a complete narcissist with an arrogance unmatched by many, the Rangers experience will have knocked him badly and he’d need time to get over it.

That’s one of them where the ref only gave it because he thought it was outside the box. There’s no way he blows for that if he thinks it’s a pen. Rooney talking sense about it, but Shearer coming out with absolute pony. Handballs also been controversial even going back to when he played.

The nods will be in 7th heaven if it’s Ralph, and the wankers in the social media department walking around with a permanent hard on. The only thing I ask, is they wait until the new year, so we don’t have to listen to that stupid fucking Last Xmas pony.

Guys at the end of the day it’s our club. “Southampton till I die”, not conditional on who is in the hot seat. I won’t be happy but I’ll give him a reasonable amount of time to start winning before calling for his head. About 15 mins into his spell is reasonable, if we’re not 2 up by then, the Lego headed cock will be getting some clog from me ..

There’s only 1 group of people I’d trust less than SR to get a decent manager onboard & that’s some of our supporters. Lego, Ralph, even good old Nigel gets a mention. Lampard, Rodgers, Gerrard, FFS get real. Stevie G gives latest interview “how I turned down Rangers to manage Southampton in the championship”. Nurse!!!

Fun, fuck me, I bet you’re a bundle of fucking laughs. It was a friggin grind, 90% of the time. I went to every game thinking “are we making 200 or 300 sideways and backwards passes in our own half today. The Lego headed cock sucked the joy out of the game.

Course he fucking should. He’s the manager, the buck stops with him. He was fucking useless. Where’s all this “nice guy” pony come from? He was like a sulky teenager the past 3 weeks. Good riddance…

He’s new to coaching, he’s learning his way. I doubt he has very much say over tactics etc. Given his history, it’s no surprise people want him out, but if it was Jose Fonte or Ricky Lambert they probably wouldn’t. I’d want to know what he’s responsible for, and which area of our failings is down to him before throwing the baby out with the bath water.

I think people are being a bit harsh on him. He’s got potential, but we’re asking him to pass the ball into midfield & get on the ball regularly. If we got him to defend, head and kick it away, there’s something there (apart from the one horrendous miss kick). I’d bet my life a proper manager would get more out of him. Same with Edwards, I’m not saying they’re great, but we’re not giving them the best chance to shine.

He’s “just fucking shit” for Southampton.

Stewart Ripley once told me to fuck off, I didn’t have a problem with that, and I don’t have a problem with this. I do have a problem with them coming over at the end and half heatedly clapping the fans. All this pony is getting out of hand nowadays. When did clapping the fans become a thing. I prefer the Jimmy Greaves approach, “in my day the fans clapped me”. Acknowledge the fans when you run out at the start, that’s it. At the end, shake the opponents and officials hands, and fuck off down the tunnel, win lose or draw.

Blackmore was banging on about this yesterday, how Preston were more “experienced “ and Still hasn’t got similar just young inexperienced ones. It’s bollocks. McCarthy played over 200 games, been in around premiership for years, and played for England. Manning over 200 games , mostly at this level, and an international. The other full back over 100 Brentford appearances & called up internationally. THB 2 promotions from the league we’re in and an England cap. Downes over 200 games, Armstrong over 300 starts and scored over 100 goals. We had James Bree the type of championship player Blackmore was bemoaning we didn’t have, but Still never picked him. Same with Aribo, over 200 games, played in Europa league 17 times, won the league in Scotland, international, yet can’t get a game. As you said we also had 2 of the leagues better players from last season. Too many excuses being made and too much blame’s being put on recruitment. These new guys look ok, save for Downs and maybe the centre half. The only glaring error is up front, but that’s not the reason we’re shite. We needed to score 4 at Bristol & Hull. Needed 3 to have beaten Stoke, Blackburn and Watford. It’s not like every game is similar to the Swansea one. We’re not creating and missing chance after chance, Portsmouth, yesterday, even Wrexham we were bang average, lacking a striker wasn’t the main reason for horrendous results. This group of players are good enough to be in and around the play offs, no doubt about that. The fact they’re fighting relegation, isn’t recruitment or a poor hand.

That’s a good call, I’d forgotten about him. Got the Chris Wilder sort of vibe, bit hit and miss in his last couple of jobs, but good solid championship level manager.
