BotleySaint Posted 23 May, 2021 Share Posted 23 May, 2021 Well.. I'm glad it's over. We've had some poor finishes to the season before but this one feels particularly bad as its been bottom of the table form since January. The noises coming from the club about changing things (I.e. silence) are not a good sign. Fear the worst moving forward.. But we will at least be in the Prem for one more year!

Lighthouse Posted 23 May, 2021 Share Posted 23 May, 2021 1 minute ago, obelisk said: Sorry but that's nowhere near good enough. With Ralph in charge we'll likely be relegated by Christmas next season. The thing is, there are plenty of questions about Palace and their squad/manager. Villa look hopeless without Maddison, so if he goes they could have issues. Wolves if Nuno leaves.... Brighton are nothing special, Burnley and Newcastle are equally short of investment. Every years people say something like this. We’ll almost certainly be down there but likely in good company. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

macca155 Posted 23 May, 2021 Share Posted 23 May, 2021 What a ghastly season, glad it is over. Major changes and restructuring required. I hope all those bizarre selections, and changes were to emphasise how weak the squad is. Bendarek, McCarthy, Forster, Redmond, Diallo, Minimano, Djenepo, and possibly Tella, can all have good games when others play well. However when the pressure, is on they simply cannot up their game. We've seen the team play well, so not all is lost, but new GK, CM and FB are required. Oh and Ralph to have a long hard look at his tactics.

Saints foreva Posted 23 May, 2021 Share Posted 23 May, 2021 Just another easy win against us. 19 defeats is abysmal, more than the shite in 2005 managed. For me, the manager has to go but he's not alone there. The ownership is a joke, we are desperate for a takeover. We also have players that just stink up the place, players with piss poor attitudes, we lack leadership on the pitch. The club is rotten right through to the core. I feel numb towards this club at the moment. Honestly so glad the season is over. I'm not confident of us getting the scouting right in the Summer. We absolutely have to be signing players to go straight into the starting lineup, not players to increase the depth of the squad. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JRM Posted 23 May, 2021 Share Posted 23 May, 2021 Depressingly predictable. Our annual beating at the Athletics track, the Premier league did us a favour voting against away fans attending these final games.

IronCitySaint Posted 23 May, 2021 Share Posted 23 May, 2021 Just another standard 3 goal defeat to add to the collection for this season. And some more fine in game management to remind us how screwed we are going to be next season without major changes. Probably any half decent player will leave and yet again be replaced by inferior ones. Keep on repeating until relegation is certain. Our only hope is to get bought by someone this summer that gives a shit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pamplemousse Posted 23 May, 2021 Share Posted 23 May, 2021 Very true about Puel. He knew the limitations of this team and reacted accordingly. Sadly some of our more unintelligent fans couldn't see that. Same with Ralph I think. He knows what he's working with. Just got to hope it's a busy transfer window. I really want him to be ruthless with this squad. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BallBoy Posted 23 May, 2021 Share Posted 23 May, 2021 (edited) Yet another insipid performance to finish our season. I am not anti Ralph but he doesn't seem able to lift the players. My biggest worry is can we hold on to our better players? Seriously, if you were Ings, Vest or JWP and a better offer came along - would you stay? It is a worry. The flip side of that is even IF we get a shedload of money who would come to us. I am not sure we can rely on the academy as we have in previous years.
