If he has no focus on Saints then that's another reason for him to fuck off.

Hole in the floor?

I think it's the only way to put pressure on them. I feel a bit sorry for him. But, ultimately Rasmus can claim absence, Kraft is a non-entity, Spors doesn't care... Solak needs to get a grip and take control of his investment from these shysters.
-
Basically, Saints is run by clueless cunts. It's amateur hour hiding behind a laptop. Solak, you fat cunt. Fuck off.

Streams likely won't work until kick off time isn't it.

I mean, seriously, that's how low we've sunk.

Lambo man?

Everyone is ill (Fellows, Robinson, Jander). Rather than having caught the shits off of Downesy, perhaps there's a covid in the camp. Would explain the second half lethargy we keep seeing!

Blackburn home form is played 6, won 0, drew 1, lost 5. Home win is a dead cert.

Yep, decent shout, although I'd pick Quarshie ahead of THB at the moment, if fit. The key to that would be that Downes holds his position. He does like to get upfield, so he would need to curb that enthusiasm. What the club has been missing for years is a big African to shield the centre backs. Would also need Charles and Jander to link with the wingers so we aren't just pinging balls into the box for Armstrong, but I think they could do that. It also allows for sitting deeper at times and springing a counter attack with proper wide forwards.
-
No, no, no! We need 3 CBs and wingers playing out of position and two "10"s. System is working!

I'm still holding out hope for the Arigo Sacchi and Paul Hart dream team one day.

Can I get a Reeecycle round the back line?

In Europe? Not particularly. Just Vatican City. -

I'll summarise Hypo's plan. (Sorry, it's not Hypo's plan, it's just a plan). 1) remove human rights 2) more boats in the water (not sure what they do when they find a boat- sink it? Drag it to France? Call Rupert Lowe?) 3) some big camps. Sort of concentrate the people together. 4) Anyone who can be identified back home. 5) Anyone who can't be identified > off to Rwanda / the moon. -

I'm not saying we should! I'm not advocating! -

We could just gas them all. I'm not saying we should. I'm saying we could. -
Agreed. Also a sign of our weird recruitment that we haven't signed a proper defensive CM. As you say, it's not Charles' natural game and I don't think it's Jander's or Downes' either. We need a big athletic bloke in there to protect the defence.

For some reason, this really cracks me up:
-
Come off it. Stephens and THB have been promoted from this league before. Wood is experienced and has done alright (yesterday excepted). Edwards was one of QPR's players of the season. Quarshie is a bit raw but is a beast. If we can't make a decent pairing that's on the coaches.
-
Yes. Jones was clearly wrong man, wrong place. Just an awful fit and probably never going to be successful at PL level. Was obvious after 2 matches. By the time he left we were done and Selles was never going to achieve much. Reset with Martin. Certainly wasn't a dud in terms of getting across his ideas and putting a mark on the team. And he got good enough results to get promoted. Clearly, our approach was suicidal in the Premier League, although how unbelievable is it, in hindsight, that our signings to gear us up for that campaign were Ben Brereton Diaz and Cameron Archer and we went into the season with the Macca/Bazz double act? Mental. Then we had Juric, although again we were as good as down by that point. I don't think he was a good fit and I'm not sure he really wanted the job but I'm sure it was a nice payday. I don't count temps like Rusk, who was never really the proper manager, just someone to kill time. So, yes, it's quite possible, in my view.

Are you serious? You think all the other successful teams in the division with a back 4 have materially better centre backs than we do? You're making excuses for poor coaching and organisation.
