We won ffs, we came from a goal down and that adversity usually is too much for us. The players dug in and got a result. A bit of praise may have been in order, although some criticism may well be just. The constant attacking of the team I felt could have been toned down a bit, but Glenn especially doesn't hold back. Amusing at times and writes some great blogs but I thought it was a bit over the top.

I really enjoy this pod, and was so looking forward to the latest edition. I had felt uplifted with a win and felt there would be some positivity. From the first minute there was a tirade of acerbic opinion, and brought my elation of a win straight to the floor. I know it is all about opinions, but guys give us a bit of respite and a bit of hope!! The fanbase needs some positivity and we did win. Ok everybody says it was due to bad defending, but we WON and apparently didnt play that badly. Anyway I still love the pod but try not to depress me on a Monday morning lol especially after a victory

Im not 100% in but I have held back with critisising him too much

One thing for sure we can never win with some fans lol

Congratulations Nathan Jones and Saints. Obviously also to our fantastic away support

As if you re going to get much balance from a match thread Lol. Chez is probably as fair as any to ask

He twisted his ankle in training a few weeks back

Reading the match threads really is comedy gold.

He put fans noses out of joint as he wanted ex players etc to pay for their seats not get complementary ones, banning a few favourites inc MLT and LM if my memory serves me correct. Sadly he destroyed a lot of the clubs history by binning it (apparently, Duncan would know more) In my eyes he did some really good things, any transfer business was kept totally in house and news didnt get out. Marcus trusted him and so I feel that is a great recommendation.

Another thing that he said that always annoys was 'did he play the game' re Ankerson. Apparently is a pro footballers eyes only players know the game. Tell that to Mourhinho and Wenger, 2 of the most successful managers in World /PL football

Yep exactly,

wow, that is quite a thing to wish for. The bloke had an opportunity and went for it. Im sure we all would, rather than say 'No thanks, Im going to turn down the massive riches as I dont think Im good enough' lol

Doswell saying that ABK gave up may look pretty stupid if the rumours that ABK has done his ACL!!!!

Who would take a job, that basically is you have to take 18-22 year olds, make them better, play attractive football and oh as you build your team the better ones are sold. Ok I wasnt over the moon us having NJ but boy do we make it harder for ourselves and the players by totally turning on him within a few games. Shame is that once people have made their mind up / listened to others and like sheep decide all is crap. Sometimes you get what you vote for and there you have Brexit

Another thing!!! we have had a manager in from Bundesliga and now the Championship and neither have come up with gems from those leagues, There must be some

I just read that Saints are trying to loan a central defender from Everton lol. It goes on to say that Everton would sell him. Who actually sanctions these things if true? It just seems naive, and if it is to purchase even more mad as Everton will surely want to stitch us up with a high price

And a totally different style of player. I can see the fear in Casamiro's eyes as Edozie comes at him to do a crunching tackle. I remember being by the touchline for a Burnley game and was astounded to see that the majority had massive thighs, it was incredible,

Look up the poster Colin page 24. Im not prepared to be associated and by posting it again.

Quite truthfully if you read the posts on here, especially on the match thread there is not enough time to list what we moan about. We have built a squad that is totally lightweight for the PL. We have had no physicality for years. We dont know how to use the dark arts when a team builds an attack and stop it at source. We get dominated in midfield, and cant score for a toffee. A manager joins as he wants to take the opportunity and our fanbase will not give him a fair run. Yes he may be total rubbish but the messiah who just left was part of the no wins in so many matches. The players are as nervous as kittens, especially as they are young, will not cope. We are killing ourselves by not uniting. Ye we are all desperate, but this goes back to the change of owership and the fantasy of the new owners using us as their chemisty set, experimenting with the 'play youngsters'

Doesn't Dyche play the same hoofball we are complaining about lol

Read the womanising bit of post

I cant believe people are pouring out such vitriol, and the slander of his private life!! All of a sudden it seems Ralphs tenure was the best football the world have ever seen. Listening to Stoke fans ffs

Do you think that if the club gets a good offer if he is at Burnley or here the club will turn it down??

Im sorry but I dont agree, if Haarland had the chances that Che has missed in the last few matches we would have a lot more points. Che is a good hardworking footballer, but finishing is not his best asset. A bit like Ormyroyd, he set up space for Beattie to score. Che was the same for Ings. Get a player up with him that can find the net and we could scrape out of this mess

I dont believe bringing Tella back and that pressure will help his development. Leave him there so that he can really learn. Scoring goals in the Championship doesnt always lead to goals in the PL
