But we're not Premier League quality, as evidence by our points total. We are clearly a championship side.

THB has been a bit naff since growing his hair out

I'd fucking sooner gouge my own eyes out than see the chap go to Newcastle.

Exactly. I can't remember seeing a referee being told to go to the screen and NOT changing his original decision. It's a farce.

Would the PL ever get rid? It's a system that's fairly easy to rig in favour of bigger clubs, so I guess not...?

Agreed. At least nothing hurts anymore.

I get frustrated when decisions go against us or teams turn our lead over with ease. Then I remember we're on our way back to the Championship regardless, so my frustration disappears into ambivalence pretty sharpish.

Absolutely. Feels like because we're cannon fodder, you can do what you fucking please to us.

Agreed

Like Toby? Bringing back bad memories!

Pretty fair 😅

Reckon they've got a chance of avoiding the drop?

Just needs a fuck-off large flag with those statistics printed.

I mean, I can't take much more, but I'll never stop supporting the Saints. Hitting the 'final straw' could never happen in the sense of tendering my supporting resignation completely. However a month more might mean I switch off and attend no live games and stop watching streams, checking for the final score instead. Turning to a conscious apathy. That's for my own survival.

Agreed. Would that put us amongst the likes of Sunderland, Leicester, Fulham, Forest?

I think he was referring to Jan moving out of the defensive line to apply pressure, then running back to get in line in the box and completely missing a header that was then headed in by Wood.

Downes is proving himself to be so limited. Two of their goals running centrally towards our goal with edge of the box finishes. Some nice play up top today, which is reassuring. TP was dominant - at one point he caressed the ball out of the sky with a soft control after Ramsdale launched it long. Supreme skill and calmness of mind - especially as he has a couple of Forest players around him. Would've been nice to score a third but we did have some luck on our side today, too.

Bednarek is so poor. Watching his 'defending' for the Wood goal. Wow. Clinical from Forest. Embarrassing for us. Weirdly apathetic to it all.

Wait, 'should've been'?? Didn't we do pretty well under Koeman?

Poor old Franz and Sofie.

It is the lowest attendance weve had in the FA Cup. That's poor! I remember us beating Luton in the FA Cup with a Rickie Lambert free kick back in the L1 days, even at our depths 12.5k is a bloody low attendance at SMS...

Be nice if we actually won for once.

Isn't laughing a crime there?

Should do away with commentary and analysis. Fucking waste of time.

Lunacy, surely. A club certain to be relegated, most likely rock bottom with a dismal point tally. 1) Would he play in the Championship? 2) Would we be able to recoup our investment by selling him on relegation? 3) Would Real Betis sell to us? 4) Would Sergi want to join such a substandard team?
