I am. Sorry, gallows humour is failing me tonight.

Red rag to a bull springs to mind

Based on your general expressions of frustration tonight, we can agree Hopefully we get the win we desperately need. You never know, football is a funny world!

Beginning to wonder if you are Les Reed. I say that in jest, but you are literally going after anyone who complains about him tonight...

The manager sets out his teams to not lose first and foremost. He is afraid of every situation except when he is already losing. We simply won't win any games like this. Meanwhile swansea are beating liverpool etc.

*Assuming he plays the full 90.

Plus we went 4-4-2 and played through the middle. Why in gods name did he not just straight swap him for Long and maintain the formation. We were all over them in that first half. Our bloody DM's were getting 30seconds to think about shooting on the edge of the D ffs.

I have consistently posted about Les and the board. Pretty much since Lambert left. Possibly before. Man is a snake, lies to the fans, uses media contacts and PR to spin everything the way he wants... took full credit for what came before him, fell out with Poch and Koeman, every player that ever left saints was, "a bad un", and lets not forget his fabled interviews right before the bad news hits. He has mismanaged us straight into a relegation battle. Well, if he wanted all the credit for the "Southamton way", i'll certainly shovel him the tonnes of **** he's got coming.

He tried hard. Probably needs a bit of time to get up to speed with the league and the physicality. Not sure what it means for Sam Gallagher though (but that is no slight on carillo. At worst, he is a target man version of shane long.

He is 200% worse than Lowe. Lowe's legacy is the stadium and academy. Les' legacy is flogging the best team since the 80's, and taking us from just off champions league to near relegation in 18months. How the hell can you still have Lowe above him?!?!

Can I just say, I am glad I am no longer in the vast minority of the fanbase when it comes to Les Reed and the board. Its one of the very few positives I can think of tonight. If we do go down, maybe we'll see some change (zero tolerance) being led by the fans. Thankfully I ditched my season ticket after Puel, the writing was on the wall then and there. And even more thankfully, I've got a nipper on the way in less than a month, so if saints really hit the fan I can come up for air at the start of next season and miss most of the pain At least, I hope the end of this season is "most" of the pain.

If we are sacking the manager... I'd just go get Nigel now. Chances are we'll be in the championship next year anyway now, and you never know, he may keep us up!

no more wins?

So, revised down to 34 points. And certain relegation.

No. He gets commission from every sale and he is retiring next season. Pretty shrewd on that basis.

Les Reed has to go. He takes full blame for this **** fest.

Make no mistake. If we go down, this owner will asset strip us.

The team don't know how to play 4-4-2 fluently. WTF is he doing. It should be ****ing obvious ffs. WTF.

Awful ****ing subsitution. We aren't getting anywhere near the final 3rd possession now. All he needed to do for now was switch carillo for long. And boufal for davis.

4-4-2 is a mistake this early. Needed to be 4-3-3 with Carillo up top. We were dominating them through midfield and would have had all day to get him some tasty headers.

Its not enough. Les Reed needs to **** off as well.

What difference does it make if that balding **** runs out and overspends on transfers? He has taken us from 6th and just off champions league to second bottom in 18months. It should never have come to anywhere near this!!!!! HAS TO GO ASAP.

Has to simply be: Carillo on for Long Boufal on for Davis. No slight on Long, but brighton are just sitting deep and we need a big man to win in the air. If we lose this game. I want to see Les Reed and Mopey's resignations before the weekend.

And which team's manager is out on the touchline... Brighton's... Sent from my HTC One_M8 using Tapatalk
