Saints 0-4 Brighton - Match Thread

[OttawaSaint]

No EPL team should have Aribo or Bree anywhere near their matchday squad and here we are with both, in the starting lineup and being played out of position.

A stunning indictment of just how broken we are.

Ivan the terrible can fuck off tonight, fucking clueless. As can half the team, not fit to wear the shirt. Absolutely pathetic performance. Again.

You are a perfect example of what’s wrong with our fan base SR know they’ve fucked up so Solak has done the bucks stops here thing . I better explain this to you it’s a bit complicated.      No it doesn’t mean he picks the team

big picture this season is fucked get over it it looks like the three teams promoted are going back down anyway any sort of whingey attempt to get rid of SR now is frankly completely ridiculous 

we have got the rest of the season and this summer to sort things out. In fact next season we should be in a position to start well

some pathetic campaign of protest would only disrupt things further. If you and you followers can’t get the big picture it just shows how low IQ you are

Are you fuckin serious? SR have been a complete clusterfuck since they've taken over. Three years of this bollocks now and twats like you still defend them? Fuck right off.

Sell the jewels, bring back the chaff and we go again next season n the Championship. This season is a huge bust.

Speaking of huge busts...

How’s it going… oh!

Smallbone, absolutely horrendous player.

You've been completely suckered in by SR haven't you. Hook, line and sinker.

Do you honestly trust that things will get sorted out in the timescale you suggest?

Three years and they've made us so much worse than we were before they took over.

I don't care if Dragan has recently stepped in to address things. They have utterly failed with every single decision they've made, and yet still you make excuses for them. 

If you're happy to sit on your hands and wait for things to get better, despite all the evidence suggesting they won't, then by all means you fill your boots.

[Saint Scott]

Only the small matter of Chelsea and Liverpool next

What a fucking travesty of a season

[Saint NL]

I'd have a bit more respect for the players if they were angry and kicked the opposition. They're as passive and beaten down as us fans.

[Edmonton Saint]

And literally what was the point in signing Gronbaek? Not getting a look in this shower of shite says a lot about our so called recruitment.

[Suhari]

Just woken up from a snooze.

What did I miss?

I want to see him get on. Our forwards have stopped running for the most part. Let someone with anything to prove have a jog at it.

You remind me of Keith Legg and the ‘Saints go Wilde’ debacle. Absolute putty in their hands.

Chelsea and Liverpool away next

Surely Loads won’t bother going to the wolves home game

if the players can’t be bothered then the fans shouldn’t either 

[Sidney Fudpucker the 3rd]

Nice to see that our fans are finally realising that the board employed a fuckwit who is equally as clueless as the departing manager. 

You only had to translate some of the press reports about Juric to see that he was never going to be the solution. Shame that the board clearly didn't bother to do the most basic research.

 

[OttawaSaint]

😆 

4-0

Great marking...

[CB Fry]

I can't believe playing Aribo at centre back hasn't quite worked out.

[Saint_clark]

Round and round and round it goes, where it stops nobody knows...

[Saint NL]

Fold the club

Yep.

Just saw the fourth.

We are so, so shameful.

How the hell do we bounce back from this season?

[obelisk]

0-4 really does not flatter Brighton at all. Saints are awful.

[Sheaf Saint]

Brighton have been very poor today and are still 4-0 up.

To everyone at Saints - the board, the manager, the players... Please just fuck off now, every single one of you utterly useless, pathetic cunts.

Oh contraire, that will be our cup final.

A full house will roar us on to a famous victory that sees us clinch the non record low points tally.

Pitch invasions, commemorative scarfs, open top bus processions, the lot.

The bigger problem is yet to come. This won't be like th last time Saints went down. The clear out will be massive and there will be another new manager who has to try and assemble a brand new squad. 

Saints will be lucky to finish in the top half of the Champuonship next season.

The club is a complete joke. 

[imadirtyurchin]

Let’s just bin juric off and get rusk back in

Will Smallbone, Aribo, and Sugawara at CB vs Chelsea...

[Saint NL]

Brighton pushing for a 5th goal in an empty stadium. This is a low.

[6ft8saint]

The ownership have alot to answer for. Bad decisions in management and terrible player signings and choices this season. So disappointing after the fantastic feeling wembley had given I almost wish leeds had won and we'd still look amazing in the championship

Is this really where our fan base is going? 

[Lee On Solent Saint]

We aren't going to survive the season without someone getting double figures against us.

[Thereisonlyonemickychannon]

There is a positive though....

We have not lost 9-0 for ages! 

[ChristopheVAFC]

I'm really sad for you guys, it's really been a nightmare season...

Can't wait for next season...

[OttawaSaint]

Kinda lucky that Minteh decided to play in wooden clogs today.

[obelisk]

Brighton stroll through the centre of the park again. Saved this time but should be five.

[Colinjb]

Decided to take the kids to play shack instead of following this.

Correct decision.

The players did from the first minute.

And here we go 4-0. Why? Utterly bereft defence.

Ah who gives a fuck anymore? It’s just a joke now. More fun poking my eyes with a jalapeño.

Just so the Picker Wheel gets one right, I asked it if we would get relegated this season:

 

 

[verlaine1979]

Two straight balls through the middle of midfield and defense.

[CB Fry]

Seagulls flying all around the inside of the ground. Mocking us. Mocking what is left of us.

[It's There]

Change the manager?

Why?  Next season won't be much better.  The little quality that we have will go, we'll be lucky to stay mid table next season.  Our place at the top table is well and truly gone and we won't be back for many, many years. 

[obelisk]

All the time the last Saints defender has to make a desperate tackle otherwise the opponent is through on goal.

For them to go, somebody needs to want to buy us, and who in their right mind has pockets deep enough to buy us AND spend what will be needed to make this disaster of a squad competitive. I think that we are stuck with SR in at least the medium term. We just have to hope that Dragan has seen the light and balls big enough and pockets (still) deep enough to sort this shit-show out.
