What a bunch of utter twats. At this rate we’ll be fighting relegation!

So long as we are 'fighting' it I don't mind, but personally I don't think there is any real fight in any of these players - too many believe the hype, but continually fail to deliver.  Yet another woeful performance.

[Saint Fan CaM]

When the Manager was changed the entire first team should have been changed. This bunch have no clue how to win a game of football.

[Miltonaggro]

Sat twiddling his enormous thumbs in winchester! 😊

[saints-til-i-die]

They are all rubbish. Every single person. Management and players. Had high hopes for Spors but it’s more of the same rubbish. Downs. What was he thinking? 

[Holmes_and_Watson]

"This could fall kindly for Manning"

Who promptly gives it away. Like Downes in a previous game, some of our players really don;t know what to do in those positions or they are now scared. 

[Saint86]

How can the ref not give a foul of him literally pushing scienza in the face?

Harwood Bellis and Stephens. Has there ever been a more dislikable CB pairing. 

There’s an argument than rather obsessing about wingers our summer recruitment should have been focused on our core - keeper, replace the CBs and a quality striker.

I know it’s still early, but IF this continues, where the fuck do Sports Republic go from here?

Hopefully far far away

[Scoobysaint]

THB believes the hype. He’s an England international. I think he’s a fucking liability. 

[CB Fry]

Tell you what, those Super Mario videos announcing the signings were good, though.

Mad, he’s been our best player this season. Most likely to score anyway

All downhill from there though 😢

Should have been fucking Dig Dug or Asteroids!

At least the players are fitter too. We can keep whipping them crosses to nobody in right until the end. 

[Saint Fan CaM]

Every fucking time - Stephens to Manning…Manning back to Stephens.

[Secret Site Agent]

71 % for Saints

Losing 2 - nil

 

Fucking joke.

 

We do everything right upto crossing it into the area for them to clear it or their keeper to claim it.

 

Fucking joke.

 

No goal threat at all.

Last time in the Championship losing by 2 goals there was always a feeling we would get them back......and did on several occasions 

Now I don't get that feeling at all.

 

Fucking joke.

 

[Osvaldorama]

We were crying out for an experienced manager. Someone like a cooper, wilder, Dyche or even a big Sam. 
 

Someone to toughen us up. Strengthen the spine, do the basics and make us a team again. 
 

Instead we went for yet another hipster appointment. Absolute joke of a club.

The players receive passes like they're surprised it's coming to them.

In SR's minds, they dealt with all of those quickly.

Brought in Downs
Gave Stephens an extension
Checked to see if Pep was still Man City boss, as one day Baz will go back there as number 1. 

Decisive stuff from SR. 

[Sheaf Saint]

FOR FUCKS SAKE!!!!

We had a chance to play a quick forward ball then cos they had players committed forward, but still just stop and play it backwards and infield. It's infuriating.

Just what the fuck do they do on the training ground all week?

[saint michael]

Do we have anybody who can shoot

 

[obelisk]

FK in Manning territory.

This. We needed and experienced manager who knows the league, someone who could make the tough decisions.

We’ve gone from pass it out from the back at all costs to cross it at all costs. 
 

Arma running into the box from the wing and still flicks a cross over everybody for the sake of it. 
 

get him sacked ffs 

[Saint86]

Hopefully scienza takes.

Which player has the most direct free kick goals in europe's top 5 leagues in 2025... not manning.... who take the free kick. Manning

Scienza not happy to just sit back and drift. Wants to make things happen. Good to see.

This is miles worse than under Martin.

Agree, bring him back. These fake RM'S have been shit, get the original in!!

[Holmes_and_Watson]

Miles over from Manning.

Manning misses.

He would have 83%

Need to get THB off the pitch. FFS.

[Saint NL]

THB is having a mare

[HKsaint]

Play the wild card now, Still.

[trousers]

It's been a while since @Matthew Le God reminded us that we've got one of the best squads in the league...

THB is so much better in his head than he is on the pitch

Resignation?

3-0

[BotleySaint]

3-0

Could get very embrassing.

[saintant]

Might go into football management - judging by our last 4 appointments there's money to be made and you don't even need to have a clue what you're doing - money for old rope.

[LGTL]

3-0. Yeah, he needs to go. 

[saint michael]

That star man Mc Burnie

[Saint86]

We literally have no fucking defence.

disgraceful.

[OttawaSaint]

I'm watching Wolves vs Leeds and pretending it's us 3-1 up over Hull. 

Much better, enjoining it.
