Leicester 2-0 Saints - Match Thread

[Appy]

It’s a miracle these clowns have got 11 points. 
 

Expect divvies in the away end will still clap them off. 

[Saint NL]

Commentator has definitely got a tenner on Ross Stewart to score at any time

Going to lose his money for sure

How far into next season is the bet valid ?

[saintant]

Why do the coaches and players waste time and petrol money going to Staplewood? They might as well just turn up on match day, get beaten and then disappear until the next one - couldn't do any worse.

[Saint NL]

A sensational half of association football.

Let's hope the second half can live up to that 🔥

In fairness, you can hear discontent on the stream.

[tdmickey3]

Get Smallbone on, that will sort it

Rusk honeymoon is over.

More than likely.

Although from what I can hear there's quite a few boos coming from the away end for a change. 

[davefizzy14]

Really poor first half. Surely Rusk has to change to a back four and make at least a couple of changes. Stewart needs more support up top. Play two strikers and get balls into the box.

At least those divvies have bothered to go and support their team during this shit show of a season 

[saint michael]

If Solak is thinking of selling that half will help him make up his mind… shocking even by their shit standard

Singing you're not fit to wear the shirt 

[BotleySaint]

Really wish we could call it there and not bothered with the second half. 

[woodsaint1]

Did say that the fans should have abandoned this team months ago. "What good would that do?" was the reply. Well what good has supporting them in numbers done? These cunts dont deserve an ounce of support

[Saint Fan CaM]

If we disregard the two goals, this performance is a disgraceful advert for professional football. Watching that team - a team that has played many, many games together - would have you believing that they’d never had a coaching session…never discussed how to form a cohesive attacking movement…never had coaching on set plays etc etc etc.

It really is disgraceful.

[Micky]

Gutted to hear that Bednarek has got a leaving clause in his contract if we get relegated!

[Saint_clark]

Birtles telling us that we've gone downhill since he played against us in the league cup final for Forest in 1979 was the highlight of the first half. Fucking moron. 

[Morse]

When a team is as shit as this the only answer is to get rid of the lot of them and start again next season.  There is not one of them I ever want to see wearing a Saints shirt again.

[Killers Knee]

More than two of the cnuts in the current squad turn up next season, I'll not bother streaming the matches.

[Andrew Watson]

Yet again we are making another awful side [ although better than us ] look like Brazil of years ago. Unless we get the right manager and players who actually want to play for the shirt,league 1 here we come.

Why can't the manager and players see it?

Birtles is getting really frustrated with our crappy negativity and he hasn't has to watch this pile of shit all season.

[AlexLaw76]

This is the greatest era in our history!!

To be fair it's only Leicester that seem to have any desire to actually score. These boring defensive tactics just are not working.

It’s like we are trying to hold on to 0-0 even after going 1 then 2 down. I genuinely, fundamentally don’t get it. Utter wankers in charge of the club, the team, and on the pitch. Detest what we have become.

[sockeye]

When the second went in I went apoplectic and almost crashed into a unsuspecting biddy on the M27.

Because they are stupid

[AlexLaw76]

To think, Rusk was be careful with his words so not to rule himself out of the job.

 

[saintant]

They were 2-0 down at our place and came back to win 3-2. Shame there's no chance of us doing the same.

It's SR, we should not rule it our either

I'd snap your hand off for 7th next season if it meant getting rid of every last one of these cunts.

Calling @Matthew Le God to the thread to remind us how much better these players are than most Championship teams...

This match doesn't show otherwise. Leicester were comfortably the best side last season in the Championship. Both teams are shit in the Premier League and very good in the Championship. Leicester being slightly less shit in the PL and us being less good in the Championship.

[ally_uk]

Embarrassing bunch of bottle jobs c##nts, where is the pride and passion show a bit of heart and bollocks!

sadly as the club is at present they are basically fit to wear the shirts, as they are a complete bunch of no-hopers

Tbf Leicester have played us off the pitch the last god knows how many times they've played us. The gap between the two teams is very worrying.

What exactly about those sentences is 'barking mad' and why?

How shit would you have to be as a footballer to not win player of the season at Southampton this year!

[BILLYDO]

Despite Rusk they are still playing Russball!

They are currently better than us this season and last season. But that doesn't mean other Championship teams that are not Leicester are better than us.

Turned it off after 35 mins. Utter garbage. Never seen such a poor Saints team in all my life. 

Whoever takes over as manager has got a massive task in hand. There's a completely new team needed. A fresh start from scratch or we're going the same way as Luton. 

I haven't watched them for the last 15 games or so. They don't deserve any ones time or money.

Sorry I meant I'd forfeit any shot at promotion (no idea why we'd want that, but it's what the club will be looking at) if we can have a completely fresh start

You're in cloud cuckoo land, there is no way on this earth we will be anywhere near seventh, and who the fuck is going to buy even half of the complete and utter crap that we have amassed as a 'squad'?

Finishing 7th is disastrous for the club. The longer we stay in the Championship, the harder it is to get out of it. Income drops off significantly each season you don't go up, especially if we aren't promoted after the 2nd season.

What specifically did I say that was 'barking'? We are completely out of depth in the PL, Leicester are better than us. But none of that means other Championship clubs (bar Ipswich) next season will be better than us.
