2008/09 was a worse season.

Sure not close in points total, but it was a relegation to the 3rd tier.

That's got nothing to do with the shit show this season has been

Well yes, the team isn't very good. But those Barbie Pink shirts should be rounded up and burnt before the Civic Centre. No dignity ......

Hopefully the wanker at the club who made the decision on that kit will be the first to get handed their redundancy now we are down.

[kjurwi]

-50 goal differences right now. That flatters us.

 

-51 now

[adrian lord]

We were lucky promotees last season, and this season's record underlines that.

Madame Toussauds with all the statues in the box there.

We didn’t convince either

87 points is not a bad total. Should have been more, but in a lot of seasons it would be close to enough for automatic promotion.

[coalman]

I guess that when you have no chance of silverware then you might as well break some records.

[Saint NL]

That's absolutely shocking 😂

How's he getting on at WBA? 

Just a question, I haven't been keeping tabs.

They are not playing him in his best role. He isn't a good central striker, we played him out wide mainly last season.

[OttawaSaint]

I don't fucking care if this is offside or not. We ain't scoring anyway.

Ken just scored, surely a coincidence 

[kjurwi]

Not offside. Give them the goal

[Sheaf Saint]

That's just utterly pathetic. Total shambles at the back.

[obelisk]

That's a pretty poor defensive line from the free kick. VAR time.

Not my question. How's he getting on? Goals, assists, performances?

Google it

[HKsaint]

Just give them. We don’t care.  Don’t wait time.

This var check is more interesting than the match

[Sheaf Saint]

Why the hell does it take so long to draw the lines?

[OttawaSaint]

Are they not going to draw a line here? Just eyeball it, give them the goal and fuck off.

2 goals in 10. From what was posted here, as a central striker.

[John Boy Saint]

As an aside Fulham having fun in the sun against the bin dippers 3-1 ‘pool defence looking like ours every week.

[Saint Fan CaM]

Fuck me - this is really bad - VAR is a joke.

[obelisk]

Offside from one angle and close from another. At least there'll be no VAR next season.

[OttawaSaint]

I'm guessing not so good then. Oh dear. 😆 

[Sheaf Saint]

Jesus this is ridiculous.

[Saint NL]

This is a total farce. Just draw the lines.

 

Goal disallowed 😂

[Holmes_and_Watson]

Offside.

Saints defence can't celebrate until someone blinks and their statue forms can move again.

Not going to rip up the Championship next season on that form.

[AlexLaw76]

Lolol

What the fuck 

[Sunglasses Ron]

Oh thank goodness it’s been ruled out. I was worried for a second that we’d have fuck all chance getting a result today.

[stknowle]

Oh FFS, FFS !!! If that’s at the other end, er…….never mind

[Saint Fan CaM]

Why didn’t Archer go down in the area? Give VAR something proper to look at?

[macca155]

Ridiculous but still 1 0, still a chance

Edit very very small chance 2 0 now

They didn't struggle last time, so why would they next season?

Lower motivation because they can see now clearly what'll be coming to them the season after? Players that know they'll be likely ditched upon promotion next time might play worse than they did when they knew that they stood a good chance of staying last time around. The game is played as much in the mind as it is physically...

Depends on who he has along with him. We've seen that he can score from wider positions. But we've decided to give all of our attacking players the least possible chance of doing anything with the ball. And that was before departures of the likes of Stu and Che.

[Holmes_and_Watson]

Oh dear. We are so, so poor.

They are playing him upfront... which we didn't for most of last season. He isn't a good central striker. He is effective in the Championship playing wider.

[Ken Tone]

Even though it stopped a goal against us, you have to say that VAR was a farce. It's supposed to spot clear and obvious errors. If it takes that long to check, it ain't clear and obvious. 

[Lee On Solent Saint]

And some fans think this shower of shit will play better in the Champoionship?

[Saint NL]

Now it's over

[LGTL]

You know what, no matter how embarrassing it would be for the club and the fans, these bunch of absolute horrible cunts deserve to be known as the worst PL football team of all time. That goal sums these wankers up perfectly. 

[Sunglasses Ron]

Hahaha absolutely pathetic!

Scared of contact. Could have got in front of him and "invited" contact but he's a useless pussy so he didn't. 

[benjii]

Our defending is pathetic. Our set up with the ball is pathetic.

Complete waste of time. 

What a terrible appointment Juric has been.

Higher wages than they'd get elsewhere, promotion bonuses and medals act as motivators.

[obelisk]

Embarrassing stuff. 2-0. Too easy for Spurs.

[AlexLaw76]

We are so bad it is quite funny

Sports Republic have fucked this club in a massive way

For offsides it is supposed to be forensic. "Clear and obvious" is not part of the equation.
