Last Christmas?

Ex-PL player = Carrick?

Yeah, apparently I was the 150th.

Fucking horrific goalkeeping. A powder puff shot. One of the only goalkeepers i've watched for more than a few games across Saints or any lower league team that when the opponent shoots, it's odds on that it'll hit the back of the net.

As Trotsky once said, the Party is always right'. Tonda tows the party line, definitely an SR favourite.

From reading posts I get a feeling that many posts are, perhaps without realising it, genuinely advising Sport Republic to hire the manager they are suggesting. We've lost trust in the bunch of fucking jokers to such an extent that we're desperately hoping they read our fucking posts and it gives them ideas that they hadn't considered 😂

Yep, you've won me over. He'd have a Koeman like feel.

They certainly seemed to be when Russell led us into the PL.

He got fucking laughed out the auditorium, I bet.

Ward-Prowse's comment back in the day was that 'standards have slipped'. Much more politically astute than Mr Armstrong, seemingly.

The prodigal son returns. In all seriousness, what a blunder this would be, and SR have had a fair fucking few. He soiled the name of the club in the most watched league in world football by his intransigence. A holier-than-thou, pretentious narcissist with tactical blinkers on. The amount of times he threw his players under the bus. Baffling that his name is even in the peripherals.

Isn't it sad that when I see us readying ourselves to sign Oriol, that my delight at such a brilliant human coming back to the club is tempered with thoughts of how fucking inept the owners of this club are? They'd turn gold to shit with a look, Sports Republic.

You'd rather nothing at all than shite like that. Couldnae organise a piss up in a brewery!

Bring a load of lettuces and lob them on the pitch as it tips down with rain. The soaked lettuces would blend in nicely with our bunch and might stand a better chance of preventing the other team from scoring

I don't, either. However, when added to the cauldron of his other lapses and flaws it stands to be fairly emblematic of his character. Raw chicken putting off his start to the season. Other instances of food poisoning. 'Rumours' of wanting to leave for Ipswich. Other instances of not being available for selection. Just strikes me as a little bit unreliable.

Were you there in the crowd? I was, and it felt pretty awkward to me.

115k per week? West Ham must be fucked up financially. If they get relegated and don't bounce back...

Straight into the microphone that Adam Blackmore was holding, right infront of the crowd

I think Edwards has been largely shite. The formational changes haven't helped the overall sense of frailty and confusion in defence, for sure. That's on Still and his coaches.

Would solve our problems up front. What about our proclivity to gift teams goals at the back?

A full 180 right there.

I agree, but all Quarshie needed to do there was get his boot to it. Sunday League stuff that he failed to do.

Clearly Quarshie is the one to blame there. Fucking inept defending.

Still's made some odd choices, seemingly hasn't coached a particular approach to his team, and cannot polish some of our turds. He also has managed to make some Championship-proven players regress and look particularly ineffective. If and when he gets his P45, his replacement will still have the same shite up front, in defence and between the sticks. You can't coach the mistakes out of our players. It's ingrained.

Quick reshuffle of the deckchairs.
