Our biggest weakness. Being 1-0 up at HT. Now the test starts........

We clearly need a proper manager. One who will go in a sort out this rabble we have assembled. We clearly have indoctrinated some very bad behaviour, and let it persist to far too long. One things for sure, Tonda is not sorting this mess out.

We were lucky to beat these earlier in the season. No such luck tonight. 1-1

If only Sports Republic read this thread, they would have saved a lot of grief and money. So many of us were saying the same thing.

Calum Chambers just scored in successive games for the first time in his career. Now there's a proper defector, before it was cool.

I reckon we'll start really slow, concede really fast and have a entirely shit day.

I was genuinely excited about Romeu's return, I'm not going to hide from that. I knew he wouldn't be the same player that left us, but even if he was 70% the player we all loved, then having him around a squad that has become increasingly disconnected with us fans, would surely have a benefit. OR is a great pro, and clearly enjoyed his time here with us previously. What I have seen since his second coming is kinda confusing. On the pitch he's been so far off it, that his presence is a liability. Ouch, that stung a bit. But its the off the pitch I cannot fathom. In a squad with no leaders, why is he so quiet? Where's his input? Was Tonda perhaps unhappy with the signing? Has he been deliberately subdued and nullified by lack of appearances and performances? Can see him mutually ending this adventure before the month is out if I'm honest. And that leads to my final point. We are really in the shit with bloated unbalanced mess of a squad and piss ant leadership. Good times.

I don't know how long its been. But during Russell Martin's time here I noticed defeats didn't sting much, and the enjoyment was diluted from wins (its the wins which made me take notice in case you are wondering why I didn't name Pelligrino ect). It goes back further, but that is when I started to notice I was not the same Saints fan as I used to be. Christ, I remember back when a defeat would effect me terribly, and also the elation of an important win would have me buzzin' for days! I actually don't think I'm capable of those emotional swings anymore. Life can be somewhat, difficult without sport throwing a Molotov spanner in the works.

This move is intriguing. Will be paying close attention, even after people tell me to move on.

JPT with my old man. That memory gets sweeter by the year. 96/7 final day drama. Not cried tears of joy many times. And a shout out to Lambert held high after beating Coventry. Lets tribute smash 'em this weekend!

That season now feels like some wispy dream.

Millwall, missing a raft of players destroy us. Wba, depleted squad give us a big scare. Norwich, with key personnel missing make light work of us. Full strength, fully functioning Coventry are in massive trouble this weekend. 0.2 Saints Easy win.

Glad there's credible rumours, no time for sentiments. Lets bin off some players who are dragging us down.

He did take a right kicking today. Didn't look fun.

The last two teams we have faced have used the battering ram tactic on us, and its worked incredibly well. I'm kind of happy Coventry will want to play football. It can't be any worse than watching some right cloggers who have had an appalling season, look like scoring at every attack like they did today. Bring it on.
