I adored MLT as a Southampton footballer and would would argue with anyone that he was probably the best player of his generation but as for his judgement since!!!!

Turkish you just have an agenda. You seem to be blinded by your idea that NC is picking the team and formation. If so, it may be better if NC sacks NA and takes the job himself, afterall he has got us 2 promotions in 2 seasons. NC the next England manager

i saw the new director general on the news this morning. How on earth can somebody so inept when being pressed for questions can be at the top of that organisation??

i have supported saints through thick and mainly thin for over 40 years, Im no plastic, and definitely not a glory hunter

If you click on that link look at the other videos on the side, Monty Python's 'look on the bright side of life' lol

thanks , pulled my reply at the same time. I had enjoyed venting my spleen in reply and now it has been erased

you are an interesting poster, but you are making it up as you go. NA mentions that they are going away for a couple of days which is the change. You have a fantasy idea that NC picks the team etc, barmy on so many levels. In fact it is insulting to NA is a decent man of integrity i dont believe he would ever consider playing the fall guy.

where does it say that?

we will get the normal, 'only 30mins to survive ' stories and then the dealine will then unsurprisingly be pushed back again

so we took 4 off them as well. talk about playing with figures to suit lol He did ok ,but he had some top players in the CCC to get tresults. he has had a better squad than most in L1 and has scrapped a few wins

not sure how that says others butt out of it. personally it seems to me that he knows hes had a reprieve and has to stop making some amateur decisions, and knows he will be accountable. For the sake of the club i wish for him to get us to safety.

i hope Nc has factored in relegation into his plans. There is no way this manager will keep us up.

well said that man

like some players that do well in the lower divisions and know their way around those leagues and then get to the top league and cannot cut the mustard, the same can be said of managers. NA has made some terrible decisions and that has cost us 5-6 points already.

we are back to the RL days on here. Fans blaming the CEO for football decisions, prepared to believe he is picking the team and criticising every business decision. Iam sure the majority of large companies have CEO's who upset people connected to the company and snipe away. NC is IMO trying to put into place ML vision, so far he has done it,

sign him up, we have had 3 keepers this season,at least he seems to have control of the ball

he will be 1 yellow away from a suspension until when? If that is hampering his game we may as well tell him to get stuck in and make an impact on a game and if he gets a card so be it. He couldnt tackle a chip supper on the evidence i saw last night. he looked to me like the sterotypical French waiter who seemed to be too aloof to be involved with mere mortals last night

hand on heart do you believe that the players have full confidence in NA? i suspect a lot of them would have lost a bit of faith how things have panned out. I was impressed with his interview after the game, but then after thinking about the game and others before i went back thinking he is lost in this league. If we dont change manager in the next 48hours we have to stick with him until next season. Waiting til after the next 2 games could mean a gap of 8-9 points. 2 games that could be won would have gone and a new man worth his salt will not risk their reputation on a lost cause

J-Rod did ok, it is a tough time for all the young players, especially when played out of their usual position

disinterested!!!! I think a combination of frustration, disbelief, and anger. He was the most likely to score last night and his shot that hit the bar was sublime, most of our team wold have thrashed the ball into row f (i would say row z but the majority haven't the power in the shot to reach that far) Like a lot of fans i suspect he is confused why the forward who should be first name on the teamsheet has been looked over and subbed so many times.

the most overrated player in our squad. A man who doesnt tackle, cant shoot and head the ball, apart from that he's world class at jogging back slowly when he has lost out in a tackle or misplaced a pass. After the game last night Gary neville was disecting their second goal and pointed out that Fox was 5 yards in front of Odenwingie, but failed to mention that MS was a further 10 yards further back and he didnt even make it to the edge of our box when the goal went in! defensive midfileder my a###

The decison now is we keep the manager for the rest of the season or change the manager as we can't afford to waste winnable games in the hope things may change.the evidence is that it wonta

Great away support....but singing one Nigel Adkins!,,,,,,

Remind me Morgan is a defensive midfielder, but cannot tackle or has no bravery...very odd. The players probably have lost belief in the manager as well. Would a manger now risk their reputation to join us when we are so adrift of points,confidence,and belief

That is the first time you have ever made me laugh, and it was almost worth waiting for lol
