They are literally all over us. This is worse than bad. And Still just throws his hands up in frustration. He should be screaming at the players from the touchline for what's going on here, but he just doesn't have it in him.

I'm actually running out of words now to describe how much I fucking despise EVERYTHING about this club right now.

If they don’t come out all guns blazing second half then we are lost. There should be coins, cups and anything else being thrown in the next 15 minutes. That disintegrated into a lot of turd

We’ve got so many shit players

But we haven’t have we. They are badly managed. At this level we should be top 6. Why do we always take so long to make a change, or a few games. Please get someone with a proven record as a manager at this level and someone who can fire them up!

🤓😉

you can’t be wanting to keep this manager, surely?

I'd still give him half the season, yes. The problems are with the players not the manager. Weak minded, flimsy defenders and nobody able to finish off chances reliably.

At least half of Saints team hardly ever seem to want to venture over halfway. We're not applying any pressure on the PNE defence at all whereas they are comfortably pressing Saints. Can't see where a Saints goal is going to come from. Shockingly poor.

Crowd ire is turning towards SR and the board. 

Imagine they'll just react by chopping Still.

We are broken at all levels. League 1 is a distinct possibility.

Players who have failed before and continue to fail again, their failure is clearly rubbing off on the new ones brought in.
A manager who cannot get a tune from said players.

A board who seem incapable of making the right calls when signing players and managers. Destroying the benefits of any better financial position we have.

It's just desperate stuff.

Seriously? After the blackburn shit show and these appalling tactics first half. He has got to go - i would sack him now and give lallana the 2nd half - we're already losing, nothing to lose....

He looked furious to me, can't say he isn't showing emotion.

This. We're missing a CF, but, any competent manager should be able to coach, organise, and motivate this group of players to be competing at the top end of this league. Not losing at home to fecking Preston. 

Absolute shambles.

Also Manning is one of the worst defenders I've ever seen. Appalling player.

He was woeful the Championship last time, folks just had short memories as he was unexpectedly less crap in the PL.

Yeah, he's such a non-entity. It feels like he never wanted to be here. Just here for his Mrs.

Like Spors. Can't even be arsed to move to England. 

Buck stops with Sports Republic. Just clueless.

Get THB off. He's fucking shit.

Wing backs must attack or they might as well be full backs. They offer us nothing.

Jander is a ghost. Aziz similar. Downes at least is busy. 

It's as bad as I've seen for a long time.

Get Robinson and Fellows on. I wouldn't say no to Aribo too. 

Horrible.

Why can I not get the streams to work on my computer?

Try clicking this link:

When it loads, the first time you click the arrow to play the stream it will probably load an advert instead. But close that down and click it again and hopefully it should work for you. 

Disclaimer: sorry if it loads anything offensive, streaming sites can have some nasty stuff on them*

(*by which I mean Saints' performances)

Can’t believe I travel for these games still.

Roerslev is like another centre-back, if you’re going to use this vile system at least start Fellows there. Big changes and a big reaction at half-time otherwise I can’t see the point coming back for this moving forwards.

Not all Still but doesn’t do himself any favours with this vile set-up.

He likely will end up getting sacked, but I'll make this prediction now if he does - he'll manage in the premier league before we play in it.

Anything thrown in the dressing room would go high and wide of the intended target.

Nailed it.

I honestly can’t see a change of manager improving things, let’s face it, it hasn’t so far !!!

Get this fucking geeky cunt out of our club, he hasn’t got a fucking clue and is the most negative manager I’ve ever seen at saints, which is some achievement. Makes Branfoot look like Kevin fucking Keegan. Im fucking livid

I heard this about Russell as well... Maybe not from you, mind.

I can't see how Still got this job after an interview. He seems like the kind of bloke who couldn't get up for his own wedding day.

Evident to anyone at the game. We’re set up wrong; five defenders and we’re lacking an AM in the hole. They are terrible but finding it very easy. 

Yep. Preston showing exactly how good you don’t need to be to be around the playoffs.

We have a line of defenders. Too midfielders close to them. Then three people miles apart up the pitch doing nothing.

It's rank bad coaching.

As most of us said before the game we should not be playing 3 centre backs. If he doesn't change to a back 4 at half time he is bringing about his own sacking. Some suspect the 3 at the back decision comes from above - if so Still needs to come out and say this in no uncertain terms. This club is so rotten now it is headed for oblivion. The downward spiral will only continue until every last semblance of the poison that is SR has been extracted and we are run by people who have at least some idea what they are doing. Thanks to Martin Semmens for the legacy he left. Wonder how much he collected for overseeing the sale of our club to these charlatans.

Appalling rubbish. There is no semblance of a system of play, teamwork or understanding in our football, it's just kick and rush and hope for the best. Let's hope Still will be sacked in the morning, this can't go on. 

Please SR bring this chapter of ineptitude to an end it's not fair on fans to have to suffer this crap week after week after week.

Still out!
