Annoying hearing Laura K this morning trying to pretend Hoey is Labour when chatting to Richard Tice about potential defectors. I'm not a professional political journalist but I knew she left Labour during the Brexit years.

They are not asset strippers and they haven't asset stripped. I don't know why people are so quick the grasp for that phrase and that assessment when it doesn't match anything our owners have done at all. If anything they have invested - in the ground, in the match experience, in the training ground, in the squad, on the pitch. They've spent and spent and spent. You've decided to create a fiction of evil owners who are "wringing out every last penny" when that bears no resemblance to anything they have said or done. They've made some terrible mistakes, especially on managers. But that isn't "asset stripping" and it isn't "wringing every last penny". What club and what owners are you talking about here?

The idea that it is a "mythical" idea that anyone could do better than a 32 year old novice is utterly insane to me. Top scorer in the division, some of the Championship's best players all across the park but no one could do any better than Tonda fucking Eckert. Of course these same bullshitters who six months ago didn't even know Tonda existed are now making out no other person on the planet could do any better. Full of shit lads.

Somebody who isn't 32 years old would be a fucking start.

And its likely we have thrown away someone who probably is a promising coach and could well have played a major role for us in the future (ie a Thomas Frank/Keith Andrews continuity head coach in a future successful set up). Instead he's just been rushed in to the top job in a panic and the only step he can ever take at Southampton Football Club now is the sack and gone. So in the bin by the summer. Talk about breaking things.

Adam Armstrong literally top scorer in the division. Aribo is gone, but everything else there I'd write again.

Er, we haven't been at best a middle table Championship side for years. This year, sure. But not at all since 2011-2, 14 odd years ago.

Sorry if already posted. 18 year old kid. Odd story. Probably bollocks.

Jizz Hornkamp was brilliant in Thirsty Babysitters 2.

I need to be convinced that this guy and Eduard Spertsyan can play in the same team.

Absolutely no option to buy mentioned. Robins is no mug. I doubt Stoke have got 8mil to drop on a goalie anyway.

Just seen that Ipswich travel to Wrexham on 14th for their FA Cup tie ahead of their next league game on 21st which is a trip to Wrexham.

We are not going to be relegated.

Imagine the fucking meltdown on here if Stoke had addressed their keeper crisis by going off and signing that keeper from Sunderland 😂

An annoying ninth. We scrape up there with three wins out of four in the last games of the season which allows SR to justify keeping Tonda on because "progress" and "moving in the right direction" etc and then enough saps on here will do the fucking Alex Ferguson routine and nod along with it because no one can name any manager on the planet who could do any better.
