Cooper would fail here. I don’t rate him. I was a Ralph fan. He galvanised the fans and the players after two dreadful appointments and injected excitement into Southampton not seen since Koeman’s time. Based on Convict Colony’s summary above, and as much as I hate seeing people lose their jobs, the board has to take decisive action. This is a problem that appears unable to be resolved and is affecting morale on and off the pitch. Our biggest asset is a shadow of his former self despite Ralph largely turning him into the player he’s become, one of our new coaches left after a few weeks, and we’ve totally fallen apart since Villa with no sign of the situation changing. We are in total free fall.

I think AVB would be a good fit.

He has to go now. Waiting until after City is pointless - this isn’t going to get any better.

We’ve been terrible all year and getting worse. SR’s investment is in serious jeopardy if the rot isn’t stopped soon.

Ralph will be gone if we lose this.

The part about AMN is interesting. Not up to it?

Nice appear to be a bizarre, real life Championship Manager sub-save for our fans to see how scenarios turn out - first they had Puel, then appointed forum favourite Lucien Favre, now they’re in talks with our previous messiah Pochettino.

He’s in today’s training video so it’s BS.

Is it Ange?

Ha! I make it 15 PL defeats since the start of Jan. very bleak.

We’re approaching a full calendar year of woeful performances. Based on last night, we are regressing if anything.

Lose to Everton and he’s gone IMO. Can’t see the new owners giving him the time he’s been afforded before.

Can’t stand playing Wolves. We’ve lost the last four Premier League games against them and only beaten them once since promotion. They’re the equivalent of Dion Dublin or Lukaku always scoring against us.

2-1 to Wolves.

If we stay up this season, imagine how good we are going to be in 2-3 years time when this team develops. Proper Championship Manager stuff.

You’re not quick unless you’re Jonno Quick.

Oh no.

Surely we would have got Delap if it was just on loan like Broja was? I think it’s clear we wanted to buy but City rate him that highly that he’s not for sale. As for Dembele, he probably has his sights higher than us. I’ve said this before but I think we should break the bank for Broja if there’s just a slight chance a deal could be struck.

A team we never beat at home who now have a player with a scary goal scoring record against us in Sterling - bleak.

The Palace academy one has been excellent so far.

Knowing our luck Liverpool won’t get 9 and Everton will win.

Could we beat Rangers?

Well, yesterday was only our second win since the 9-0. They smashed us 4-1 last season and beat us in the semi-final of the FA Cup.

Scored a second

3-0 Leicester. Vardy x2, Maddison.
