Welcome to Episode 300 of the Total Saints Podcast, your home for all things Southampton Football Club! It’s a milestone episode, and we’re celebrating in person! Something of a 'visual special' the TSP panel got together in a studio for the first time ever and filmed this episode of the podcast. *We had some audio issues that persisted for the first 25 minutes before getting partially fixed, unfortunately, this episode ended up as a better viewing than a listening experience. Sorry! Watch TSP 300 here • Russell Martin Sacked – It’s official. Russell Martin’s time as Saints manager is over. Was it the right call? Where do Saints go from here? And who should step into the dugout next? • Spurs Review – A complete disaster at St Mary’s. Five first-half goals, a toothless response, and a performance that’s left us rock bottom at Christmas. What went wrong? • Liverpool League Cup Preview – We’re still in the Quarter-finals, but does anyone believe in a miracle against Liverpool? • Fulham Preview – Can Saints salvage some pride and points before Christmas with a trip to Fulham?

Listen - https://pod.fo/e/26999f Watch - https://youtube.com/live/PSYxOH7EjA4 Thanks to everyone for the discussion after our last episode, we try each week to provide balanced, informed analysis and discussion. Martin leads the conversation but beyond that the panel don't get told what to think or say, it's just their opinion, whilst Alfie has to be diplomatic he's certainly not a mouth piece for the club or RM and we feel openly talks his mind on almost every issue. As @CB Fry says, we aim to be a primary source, not a secondary one. Not saying we get that right every week, but that's our aim. If there's ever a talking point you feel we're missing or would like a little more on, there's a live comment section on Facebook, YouTube and Twitch every Sunday at 7pm alongside the episode, we're always happy to hear from anyone there.
