How much do you think Semmens regrets "choosing" SR? Sacked Ralph, gutted the academy and scouting set ups, hired Jones, won't let him sack Jones... All from an organisation that said they, "woudn't get too involved". Rasmus is a liability and a real issue for the club. The man seemingly has absolute control and has his fingerprints over far too many terrible decisions this past year.

Rasmus should be sacked. He's more incompetant than Jones - absolutely no two ways about it. Massively out of his depth but seemingly with absolute control. He is destroying the club with every decision he makes so far.

Surely there needs to be an acknowledgement that Rasmus is as incompetant and blind as Jones? Both need to be sacked putting it bluntly.

No, he said for 63minutes 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣. He's lying or thick.

He just blamed the players. Unreal. His tactics!!! He set up to let a 10man team come back and score not one, but two goals... And then he blamed the players for poor defending and behind rattled. There is no way shape or form that a struggling team like wolves (that can barely score) should be bagging 2 goals away from home when chasing a game. The man is a massive fraud.

BBC solent straight onto covering Bournemouth, any idea where the saints post match is?

Really isn't enough for us to get rid of Jones. Rasmus' fingerprints all over every single thing that is wrong with this club. Need Jones out and Rasmus out!

Needs to happen before the post match interviews.

RASMUS AND JONES OUT!!

RASMUS AND JONES OUT.

Lots of Fans (prob the same bunch that promised us we had to sack Ralph and couldn't get any worse), didn't want tella back though 🤔

You really shouldn't need to point this out... Amazing how simple maths escapes some people 🤣😂

Jwp wants him sacked?

2-0 now 😂. Absolutley terrible. How can we be this bad vs a team when we're 1-0 up and have to win. Unreal. Absolutely threw away the easiest 10 points we could hope for in a season. Guy is a joke.

Bye bye Jones!

He's lost 1-0 to 10man wolves in a must win game. He's shit and needs to f'off. If Rasmus can't see that then he needs to go also.

You've seen us play right?!? Would imagine every team in the league thinks we're a soft touch, no threat, no midfield, no defence, no keeper.

Surely needs to be booted after this fiasco. Unforgiveable.

That won't be our line up.

Working class welsh boy done good, but with a chip on his shoulder about it that would sink the titanic. Its a real worry that he is simply unable to articulate the details of what he is talking about, but i tend to agree that he probably does know what he's about to a reasonable level and he was manager of the year in the championship with Luton. Its clear Rasmus isn't going to sack him, and its clear he's fully alienated the fanbase. He's got nowhere to turn now other than results - deliver them and over time he'll start to win back the fans, but every dropped point will ratchet up the toxicity to ever higher levels.

The kid didn't want to sign a new contract and was clearly only interested in going back to Chelsea and the £££ signs. There isn't much we can do. Its not Jones' fault ultimately. Jones could have played him in the first team maybe - but Chelsea would have still likely have signed him and the fans would have been even more annoyed. And it is unlikely that he would have been ready for the premier league at his size and age. Precious few kids do anything at this level at the age of 16/17 - I can pretty much only think of Rooney. Owen was 18 when he burst onto the scene, theo/ox/bale did effectively nothing for their first few years either, Kane was into his twenties... The only thing it may have done is get the fans onboard - Koeman found this to his benefit when we were awful in winter under him, he made a load of changes, introduced some academy players, and i believe we went onto win 3-0 vs everton? I do think their is a lack of awareness from SR about what makes the fans tick at saints, its not just about developing kids, its about developing our kids. They would get a lot more patience and support if 1-2 kids were being given a few minutes. But then if they really aren't at the required level yet its also fair enough - we can't afford to throw away points more than we are.

This is a beautiful post 😍

To paraphrase, "with the greatest respect, respect is earned".

Everton? What?!? They're a club bankrolled by an owner that has been living well beyond their means and at the limit of FFP spend for consecutive windows. They can't be scoring too highly for fan engagement either.

You think we'll see significantly more player turnover than that? From the fan's forum it sounded like the financial investment and backing was there, and a lot of our younger players will be on lower wages and long contracts - i.e. less pressure to sell. Whereas its a given that more established players nearing the ends of their contracts will be more likely to leave - clearing off higher wages and reducing the financial pressure to sell others due to transfer fee income and lower overall wages.
