He's too busy doing fuck all at any other football club anywhere at all for more than a decade.

Pity the Antiques Roadshow gig didn’t work out. Antique 🥄 can be highly valuable.

These goons failed massively in the summer. £50m in this league should be more than enough to build a team capable of pissing the league but the idiots went for future resale once again. That £50m should have been used to create a strong spine.

We lack leadership on the pitch, it needed to be addressed in the summer but the idiots calling the shots decided to give one of our worst ever captains a new 3 year deal. 

Seriously, fuck Sport Republic. They are abysmal owners and it has taken way too long for fans to turn on them.

Does anyone actually know what came next in this presentation? Cos they've well and truly broken it. I assume there must be some kind of plan for what comes after?

Anybody?

It’s actually embarrassing and cringeworthy to know we have complete idiots like that prick , involved in the running of our once proud football club. He is probably completely unfussed about our current situation either.

He's too busy getting excited about how much profit can be made on Leo.

There you go, 16 minutes of absolute gobbledy geek from professional bullshitter and failed football guru Rasmus.

Xy stat equals Xe and when you master that you can beat your opponent Xg to Xf. No you fucking twat, you beat your opponent by scoring more goals and if you have a small budget in the competition you compete in, you make sure your players are very fit physically and drilled to a system that works to their strengths.

Like my girlfriend asking me today, what would you like for lunch today? Hold on love let me grab my laptop and see what the statistics say and equal this and that. Or, well it’s Sunday, I am English so obviously I want a Sunday roast.

I often wonder what the working relationship between himself and Matthew Benham was like.

I understand MBs background is in statistics.  
What did RA do there?

Talk about the success achieved by others it seems.

Top 3 Benefits to Saints from SR”s multi-club model…..?

GO!

Buy Joachim Kayi Sanda from farmer club Valenciennes FC for 5M euros last year because he is the "best Center back in the world", exact words from Wizard Ben Chorley in April 2024, played a few minutes for Saints A team last season, then loaned to French 2nd Division team Red Star for which he has not played at all ? we don't buy mediocrity, we breed it...That's SR's Multi-club model way.

It was "if it is broken, consider not fixing it" if I remember well.

He is such a genius to the point of being confusing. 

SR are doing well on that front to be honest, but what is going to cook my noodles later on is, how does Rasmuss manage to keep Gotzepe afloat ? is this just a fluke ?

To be honest just the sight of that wanker with his explanatory hand actions under his PRINCIPLE HASHTAG NUMBER ONE banner makes my blood boil so much I am incapable of engaging with your question.

Facts are uncomfortable, deal with it.

When are you going to stop drinking the Kool-aid ? That's what the American people want to know...unless you are on SR payroll, directly or indirectly,  which I suspect more and more.

I can't stand Multi Club model, being relegated to just be a "faire-valoir" at best. I'd rather restart in National 3 to keep VAFC 's identity intact.

I'm not denying the facts, the figures are there and can be verified, it's obvious!

If I have to be declared drunk? Yes! I'm drunk on my club! And I accept that!

Once again, I completely respect your point of view, which is different from mine, but that's how it is, we can't all agree!

Have a good evening.

So Carl Martin's finally gone.

Lallana and Trollope clearly still have a few more years to fuck up the squad though.

I just can't with this ownership.

If SR think replacing Still with Eckert will quell the protests - they have a very nasty surprise coming.

The more I read the statement the more I think that is the plan.

Usually you see the line 'Work is now underway to appoint a successor, news will be communicated in due course'' - but that line doesn't exist. That line exists on every manager sacking statement in the world, unless they hope the Interim gets it.

I think it's nailed that he gets it if he gets 4/6 points. And I feel sorry for Tonda as he'll be scapegoated immediately, but the true anger needs to be at the ownership.

Why not give one of those two the temporary job ? They’re part of the problem it’s not just on Still. If they’re not considered capable then no point keeping them on. 

If there’s an expectation that anyone else coming in just a wants to slot in with  those two fuckers in place, then it will limit the interest.

Need someone to hold the fort until the new guy is in. These 3 will do training and match(es) but imagine Trollope will go and TE goes back to U’21s

Hope you're right. Now's the time to hit the gas, not the brakes.

People need to just boycott. Simple as.

Will Still a donc déjà été licencié à Southampton à peine cinq mois après son arrivée...

D'ailleurs, les propriétaires des Saints (Sport Republic) ont quand même un fonctionnement globalement assez catastrophique (voir aussi à Valenciennes) avec plusieurs personnes sans réel rôle autour des clubs

Will Still has already been sacked by Southampton barely five months after his arrival...

Moreover, the Saints' owners (Sport Republic) have a generally disastrous management structure (see also Valenciennes) with several people around the clubs who have no real role

These useless cunts are bleeding saints dry and not offering any benefits to us. 
 

Saints are effectively funding a load of third rate European clubs and getting nothing in return except relegations and awful performances. 
 

Thanks SR! 

Do you not think the club is spending enough  on new layers 

I do but the players do not perfom well at St Mary's
