Baird of the land

I applaud the fact that we've attempted to cut out the suicidal playing from the back. The problem is to me that there doesn't seem to be a plan on how to play more direct. That's not a role archer can play. If Onachu isn't on a ht to help him why is he even on the bench.

How lazy were saints there. Liverpool break and it took half an hour for anoyone to get back to support the 3 defenders

Annoying defletion as that shot wasn't going in otherwise

Not his biggest fan but at some point you've got to try and put another man up with him.

Disagree. Wet and blustery are great conditions to be swinging the ball into the box as it will a nightmare to defend. You can alreayd see how wet the pitch is. That isn't a pitch to for short passing on.

Curious to see how many minutes if any Onachu will get. Conditions seem perfect for a big target man

Don't like that attack. Hope TP start is being saved for weekend

I don’t particularly want to see 2 dm. I don’t think that makes use of Charles box to box strengths. Much prefer to see him and fernandes either side with Downes freed to focus solely on being a defensive shield.

If it ends up being rohl, does anyone know is there an option to recall Charles in Jan?

More than 5 points in 16 games would be a start. At this point it's really about respectability rather than expecting a miraculous relegation escape from the new man. Stylistically I want more pragmatism. I'll be depressed if its 'martin 2.0' possession.

Doesn't seem great physical preparation for a game, so i kind of hope he's nowhere near the lineup.

Mccarthy Sugawara TBH Wood ABK Manning Aribo Downes Fernandes Onachu Archer

Assume he’s already planning his exit strategy.

There's every point in sacking a manager who has feebly managed the team to 5 points.

Apparently they'd worked on a plan Unless that plan was to concede goals the useless git should cease working on plans

Spurs were able to bring their under 10's on in that 2nd half If martin isn't sacked this board are a complete joke

Martin fleeing before halftime

Has he been sacked yet?

But Lumley kicked the ball long and we conceded. But don't worry Russ doesn't tell them they have to pass out or else.

Really is a lucky dip starting lineup. How does sulemana get in after offering nothing. How does wood get dropped for playing well

I do wonder if pulling someone's someone hair is violent conduct why isn't the whole headpressing thing too.

I obviously haven't drunk enough to see this alternate reality where we've been exciting to watch and competitive.

Did he not get the memo that it is is uncool to actually manage

Another defeat coming it seems.

Funny how al quaeda terrorists are now plucky rebels to western news.
