😂😂😂😂

Players have given up. Making Forest look like Brazil.

Good to see JWP getting his pass stats up by going backwards time and ducking time again!!! 😫

AMN is such a liability.

Hang on Selles is looking like he wants to substitute someone - must be an attacker?

LOL Lyanco - what a player!

Forest play acting for time now. Why wouldn’t they?

Some might say months.

Needs to clear off out of the club - he’s no leader, can’t do the basics right like finding a killer pass or shoot or tackle. He’s a luxury player you want to bring in just for freekicks on goal.

I really do dislike everything JWP does apart from his freekicks on goal. Hugely overrated!

Fuck me we almost managed to fuck that one up. 2-1… the escapes back on! 😂😂😂😂

FFS. Utter dross. JWP is part of the problem but his mate Selles putting AMN at LB is just pathetic.

Even if that were true, we have a poor bench to pick from and a Manager who is inept enough to replace our best players with utter dross, thus effectively losing us the game. We’ll see.

Maybe he did. Personally I don’t believe him…this team don’t know how to sustain that form of play so would try to hang on for a draw or one goal lead!

How about a proper RB - Bree?

We’ll not win this. So ponderously slow in attack, too wasteful with chances, too careless with passes. But most of all, Forest will still believe they can survive even with a draw and will provide a stiff defence which we will not be able to break down. Even if we dominate play, the first attack on the break will see us concede. We’ve all seen how this plays out time and time again, so there’ll be no surprises this evening. Nevertheless, COYS!

Our best hope for a win is for NF to only field 8 players. And even then we’d make hard work of it! 🤣

In terms of a club reset back in the Championship this deserves serious consideration. One of the reasons I’ve not been inclined to keep hold of my ST has been the awful atmosphere at SMS and unregulated away fans in home areas. Part of the issue with the atmosphere is the placement of the away fans - it’s just too easy for them to create their own intimidating atmosphere, sometimes making SMS feel like an away day! There are many possible solutions, however due to Police restrictions (apparently) it has to include the Northam end due to coach travel. The most sensible option then is to put them in the Kingsland/Northam corner or Itchen/Northam corner. I suspect ultimately though that the club just don’t give a monkeys toss as long as they’re getting the gate receipts.

There's nothing to suggest we'll win any more games this season - might get a lucky draw out of a game, but even that's unlikely given how fragile the team are. This really is the worst group of players, coaches and Manager in all my years as a Saints supporter. I think we'd lose to the relegated Sunderland side of a few years back and they were dire. I did actually have a small glimmer of hope 3-4 games back, but that's gone now. 2-0 Forest.

And todays lucky dip player selection is…WTF? I see JWP has made a miraculous recovery, bless. I doubt I’ll be watching…it’s just too painful. Can’t see anything other than a heavy defeat…who cares… let’s say 4-0. Respect to anyone travelling to watch the shit show that’ll be served up.

After switching off and leaving my thoughts behind last night I've just read through some of this thread. Obviously Selles and the players get dogs abuse rightly thrown at them, however my concern for some time (and I've written here before about it) has been the insistence on some kind of playbook that simply put revels in sideways and backwards passing, allowing the opposition to re-group and defend cohesively. This has permeated through the squad under the management of Ralph, Jones and Selles - possibly even before Ralph actually. It needs a complete critical overhaul. I'm not sure how much Ankerson has to do with team affairs and even tactics, but he has presided over a total shit show and must be held accountable in his role. It's going to be nigh on impossible to turn this squad around in less than a year, but somehow we need to lose the underperformers and attempt to keep the better players such as Alcarez and Lavia. I actually think there are players like KWP who are really good, but lack the right leadership. Without a seriously deep purge in the summer I think we're toast in Championship, however these deluded fools in the Boardroom probably think we'll walk it.

Utterly wank. Such margins eh? If only Che and Stu had been played from the start we might not have been clutching at straws late in the game. Selles is a total fraud. Squad composition has been awful for three to four seasons. We deserve to be relegated.

Think I’d rather have Jones in the team!

We’re playing like a league 1 team away against a Prem team at home. It’s really that bad and I’m sick of it.

OMFG - it was terrible but it’s getting fucking worse by the minute! I mean screw the Premiership but at least play football deserving of a professional football team!
