Watch out for our 'front foot'. Seems to be the sum total of Jones' tactical acumen. Dismal little man.

Oh I dunno. Ankersen has the air - to me - of someone who thinks his brilliance lies in being an amazing outlier who thinks differently to everyone else, and that this will only fire that enthusiasm and self love, his belief in the stats and his own way of fighting against the odds a la Brentford. So that he may well stick with the wurzel one even if we get smashed 3-0. I'm preparing myself for that eventuality as it's clearly madness to believe that he will do the right and obvious thing as he rubs himself further in front of Moneyball reruns.

Can't really understand why we let him go. Another to file in the baffling decisions folder, which is bursting at the seams.

Big period for Fraser Forster in goal while Loris is injured at the Spuds....

I want us to get three points against Wolves but for him to throw a V sign at us all and then resign. That would be ace. A close second would be for us to lose by just enough for the owners to have a viable excuse to sack him, or for the people behind Rasmus' ego to pull at his shirt and say 'come on, mate, surely even you can see it now'. Then for Ankersen to murmur into his gin and tonic, 'okay, but let's say it's for the sake of his health'. Then everyone can take a breath and do the decent thing, appoint someone who is half capable of picking a good team and not appearing like a wiry psychopath from the back of the pub at press conferences, crucifying team spirit by throwing everyone under the bus and stroking pictures of himself in Luton kits and baby oil. And then we can finally move on from this most crushingly embarrassing, tragic period of the club that I and many on here can remember. All by 6pm on Saturday night please.

Only stat i want to see is P and 45

If you even have a 'front foot' you are an in-bred, which kind of follows

'Our running stats, our aggression stats are up', says our Nath in the latest presser. What a dick.

Now he's talking about God. Great.

'...If you want a headline', he tags on to an answer to the press, needlessly doing passive aggressive to a tee, as usual. He's such a tit. Get him out of our club

me too

The only thing he can do, in my opinion, that might get anything near a result, is somehow pick the right line up, which means Caleta Car and Salisu, not Bednarek and Lyanco, Perrault, KWP, Lavia, and the new boys (maybe Armstrong but not Che, sorry, on shitness grounds) and also somehow instil in them belief, and command them to harry and press for 95 minutes. Basically do what Sean Dyche would have done had the ownership had a clue. Oh, and also bring the togetherness he has somehow managed in a very short time by, well, by not being an egotistic know-nothing lower league manager with no credentials or likeable qualities. So. Not much.

On the field and off it. We park the bus and the oppo get an easy ride round it

I think the players may be extra motivated to play badly and lose if they can get a decent coach in. Who knew we could be so derailed by one man and his exel sheet

Why on earth would he leave Burnley?

Yes, I think he will go 'physical' lower league, with no finesse. They will just pick us off.

Perhaps they have offered him one final noose, while they do the necessary (ie laborious/Sinclair Spectrum-bashing) due diligence on some other schmuck to take over

Wondering what score it would take for Jones to be fired after Wolves. 0-5? 0-4? I think he survives if it is 0-3 unless there are big protests. Ps betting has Bielsa favourite. Pretty meaningless. Hassenhuttl was second

Too many players who will be negotiating next season’s club already. Therefore no need to bother. Jones needs to play the ones who care I’m afraid. But that should obviously include the new boys

That's what happens when you lose a genius

James Bree is the patsy who has done a video interview with Sky Sport about 'the gaffer' and how 'everybody is 100% behind him'. What absolute bollocks. Vox pop outside the fans forum by Sky is pretty damning though. 'Jones has not got the backing of the fans. It's toxic', said one. Another couldn't see what skills he has. Quite.

If you're reading this, Saints board, you are an utter embarrassment.

Four incompetents on stools. Collective term? A moneyball?
