Saint Fan CaM

There are some poor players sure, but more importantly there is no sign of a cohesive effective system. The players don’t know how to work effectively together. Our midfield looks non-existent and we rely on the CB’s to supply the forward line time and time again. We make it so easy for the opposing team to play against us. This is all done to the manager and his coaches who are quite clearly ineffective. I’m truly terrified of what any of the top six might achieve against us. It’s going to be a bloodbath.

Club record again. Six straight defeats. And no shots on target at home. I’ve seen some shocking results and stats, but this takes the fucking biscuit. No way back from this…relegation has to be a certainty.

Going down with a whimper.

84 minutes in and he decides to get Stu A on and change the system. Plank.

Dross. From the top down.

Mara is even making a bad job of being a passenger. Shite.

We play so stretched that there’s hardly any options to make a telling pass.

FFS change something you complete waste of a bench seat!

Edozie and Stu Armstrong would be a more effective strike partnership than Che and the waste of space Mara is. Seriously shit showing from our supposed forward players. Couple this with Lyanco who has a cockup waiting every game as a contribution and we’re so going down I could put big money on it and I’m no gambler.

31 minutes played. We’re bottom of the table. And we’ve had ZERO shots on target. Disgraceful performance.

Can’t believe the utter dross. Jones has to go - Lyanco a complete liability. We won’t win this now.

Fook me, our defence just doesn’t learn a thing!

Look further back in this thread.

With Orsic and Ings we would immediately take a huge step up in attack quality. While Ings is now a devisive character it seems, we’re hardly in a position to expect anything more and at least he has some supposed passion for the club. Let’s hope SR can get this business done quickly and without penny pinching.

If there was any truth in it I wouldn’t be surprised to see the club offloading ANY of the current squad in an attempt to rebuild. With the Championship looming large why not start selling now rather than later when it starts getting desperate.

However much hope there is for a win, the simple fact of the matter is that this team has been incapable of getting a much needed positive result for months. Reckon on a 1-2 loss.

Hate to appear negative but the trajectory of this team has been downwards for months and months - it’s not a new phenomenon. Jones has not got the experience, the respect of the squad or the resources to turn this around and one new striker, unless perhaps we spend £40m+ on a really prolific known scorer, will make that change. While the maths tells us that there’s still a chance I guess there’s a chance, but we were looking like dead cert relegation fodder months ago.

We were poor at the end of last season. Then SR/Semmens failed to get at least one decent striker. Then Jones was appointed. Proverbial nails in the Saints EPL coffin. It’s over for us and with some frankly frightening games/results on the horizon, it could be history making for all the wrong reasons. Is there a way out? Doubtful, but a new name experienced manager, 4-5 starting players with great credentials and a lot of luck might cut it. Not expecting any of those things to happen.

It’s going to be another bad day and another nail in the proverbial coffin. For all the reasons mentioned already, but mainly because the the Manager has no clue how to win a game and the players available offer no escape. Selling Lavia is probably the only way money will be available for transfers, but too late to make a difference anyway. Bleak mid-Winter. Score: 3-0 Fulham.

Bottom of the Prem. The rot started setting in the day Poch was sent packing and the money was taken out by Kat, with a terrible take-over option implemented so she saved face in some kind of perverted way. Marcus’ legacy fucked over by football nobodies. And now the supposedly knowledgeable SR are finishing the job off, appointing a no-mark manager and not investing in decent strikers to reverse the decline. If I’m honest I’ve known we’re due to go down as the performance’s have been so poor for such a long time. Things are just going from bad to worse and I can’t see this manager getting this group of players to save the club. Relegation will ruin the club from top to bottom financially I suspect and SR are probably in no position to weather the storm. The future looks bleak on so many fronts. Of course I hope somehow a miracle turnaround happens and the above analysis is shown to be inaccurate.

On this showing we’ll be lucky to stay UP in the Championship.

Just look at the way Brighton pass so cleanly through the lines…makes it look like they’ve got an extra player on the pitch. Our passing is incredibly poor by comparison and that’s not about passing accuracy…it’s about players moving into positions that provide an opportunity to pass. Oh and as I write this nobody closes down Gross and we’re three down and out of the game. It’s the beginning of the end and I don’t think there’s any saving us.

Oh. That jinxed that then.

Looking like no threat whatsoever. Brighton are running midfield and our forward line is just…mediocre at best.

On this showing so far we’re going down. We can’t match Brighton in any part of the pitch. Bazunu is a liability but will not be dropped because the club needs to sell him at a profit (lol - some hope of that!). I don’t even think a decent couple of players in January will save us. Looking like a poor Championship team. It’s so disappointing.
