Why is anyone surprised McCarthy is in nets, he was for the last game

Alex Ferguson seemed to manage it ok.

Keeper wasn’t he?

Good job you Wokies aren’t voting for the Rock and Roll hall of fame, Cliff Richard would be the only one in it.

Yeah because (allegedly) murdering your ex wife,and then being put away for 15 years for 12 criminal charges, including kidnapping and armed robbery. is exactly the same as having an opinion.

You’re right in one respect. As you say comical. Only a comical manager would play him there. You’re wrong to say it hasn’t been tried though. One comic did go and try it and only against the best side in the country . Still it was the night we won the “Pep award”for most difficult 5-2 stuffing, so maybe he knows something the others don’t, .

I want to hear Roy Keane’s view on the government handling of the Covid crisis before I vote.

Did you want Claude Puel sacked?

Klopp and pep have proved themselves at their clubs, it’s clearly a blip. This bloke hasn’t, 11th last season, worse this. Is it a bad spell, or is he a poor manger. It’s looking to me like he’s an average manager. im not sure why you find that so difficult to understand.

Klopp won the Champions league and gave them their first English title for 30 years, Pep won the league and the treble. Ralph took us to the giddy heights of 11th, lower than Poch, Koeman or Puel did. They’re the best manager the clubs have had in years, Ralph is a bit better than Mark Hughes.

I was discussing Ralph on the train home today. I said to the bloke across the aisle that I thought he’d done a pretty average job and was overrated by a lot of our fan base. The bloke I was talking to agreed, then the rest of the carriage gave me a round of applause. I had a bacon sandwich for breakfast.

One thing I’ve noticed in the years I’ve been on this forum, is that anytime someone bumps into a neutral or supporter of another club , or they discusses us with a mate/work colleague/ neutral they also back up the posters opinion. Strange isn’t it?

There’s some from last season as well. Burnley, Wolves, Newcastle, were absolutely woeful.

Take off the Ralph spectacles man, and face reality. You’re clutching at straws again. You talk about changing the record, but you’re obsessed with certain aspects of our defeats. VAR, the referee, Peps words. The city game was actually one of the worst aspects of this run. We minced about only playing when it didn’t really matter, happy to be patted on the head by Pep, thankful that they didn’t try too hard. Had they needed 9, they’d have got them that day, no doubt about that.

Not this pony again. Funny enough I was listening to Keys and Grey podcast today with Tony Pullis, he literally addressed this point with a story. When Stoke were promoted, Alex Ferguson and gave him 2 bits of advise . Firstly, make your home a fortress because you won’t win many away games. And secondly, if you get praise from the top managers you’re doing something wrong. Unbelievable that we get dicked by a half arsed City side and our supporters are excited school girls because Pep flirted with them. Noddy club behaviour. We got stuffed, that’s the be all and end all of it. They didn’t lift a leg and stuffed us.

Why do you continue with this ridiculous question. How does who you finish above define your season? After Leicester narrowly avoided relegation every single fan would expect us to finish above them the following season. Was our 6th place finished tainted because we didn’t? FFS we even got relegated despite finishing above Manchester Utd. After the end of last season I’d imagine most supporters were expecting us to be top 10 this one. Certainly no worse than we were last season. As I posted earlier 11th is about par, yet it’s all redefined so the cult can reassess Ralph’s record. All of a sudden he’s doing well because we can’t compete with Villa or West Ham. What a load of pony. There’s the big 6, then the slightly bigger 2, after that there’s no reason whatsoever we shouldn’t be the best of the rest or even nip ahead of a couple of the 8 (if they have a poor season) with a decent manager it could well happen regularly

Please no. Too old for Palace, but young enough for Saints...... Personally, if there is a parting of ways I’d look at a fresh face rather than those old gits. Maybe John Terry, he’d sort a few of our Nancy boys out. It’s not easy picking managers, whoever thought Leicester made the right decision picking Ranieri. Right man, right time. Unless you know the full story of what goes on behind the scenes it’s really hard to determine what type of manger we need. My Leicester mate reckons Ranieri was perfect that season, because they needed an arm round them and light touch management. The following season he was the worst option possible as they needed a kick up the backside and a line drawn under the title win, Ranieri was too emotional and too soft to do so. We really need to know what type of manager we need before picking one, and you’d hope the powers that be do know. From afar we look soft and mentally weak, but who really knows.
-
I used to think similar but someone once asked why they’d need to buy the football club to develop around it? Perhaps someone knows the answer to that, but I don’t. My opinion is the best we can hope for is an investor whose business plan is based on us staying the the top flight. If someone will spend enough to ensure that, then we may get the odd Koeman season thrown in. The worst thing that can happen is what Randy Lerner did to Villa, throw money at it before pulling out when he realised how much more was needed.

One of my sons is an estate agent and it’s the busiest he’s ever known it.A lot of houses are literally being sold the day they are marketed and nearly all are getting full asking price.

Looks like the Prosecutor agrees with you and he probably knows a little bit more than the Saints Web Wokies “Ellison told CBS's flagship current affairs show that there no evidence to suggest Floyd's death constituted a racist hate crime. 'I wouldn't call it that because hate crimes are crimes where there's an explicit motive and of bias,' he told 60 Minutes. Hate crimes would typically involve the use of racist language, Ellison said. 'We don't have any evidence that Derek Chauvin factored in George Floyd's race as he did what he did.' To bring a race hate charge would have required evidence to show Chauvin targeted Floyd because of his race”

We’ve been involved in 2 relegation myths, that one, and Denis Laws back heel relegated Utd. Like the skates result, laws goal didn’t make a blind bit of difference.

Knighthood? Not good enough for Our Ralph.
