Galway saint

no he’s a poor coach

Thought it was a good second half on Friday. Am increasingly hopeful we will get a second win before the end of the season to give us something to cheer

Wonder what random changes we will see tonight Will go for Manning in place of Fraser, Archer for Armstrong and Sugawara for KWP

I’d say there have been multiple points of failure where recruitment is concerned Larios, Stewart, Bazunu, Orsic, Edozie, BBD, Sulemana etc etc

We’ve missed his goals in recent weeks

Imagine next season if RM is still here, we are still passing it from side to side and back again and Baz is back between the sticks Don’t think I could face it

agreed the season is effectively over. feels like we are now in a holding pattern until he loses so many games he is sacked.

We were better today but still conceded three against an off form liverpool I can’t see him being here at the end of the season whatever crap SR come out with about ten year plans, but it will be interesting to see how many games will we lose before he is sacked because we are going to lose a lot between now and the end of the season if he stays

Thought we were competitive, but still conceded 3 and another defeat. We will concede far too many and that’s always typified RM teams so not sure what the club is looking to achieve by persevering

good half apart form the usual balls up multiple subs at 60 mins to ruin the rhythm seems crazy it’s taken until this game for TP to start

sulemana has had a lot of opportunities and has generally squandered them save for the liverpool game two seasons ago. he’s been a total waste of money, along with the likes of larios, edozie, bazanu, charles, orsic etc I agree on TP however and given our dire goals scored beggars belief he hasn’t played more

You have those teams that entertain with their free flowing football, lots of goals but have defensive frailties and struggle, yet stick to their philosophy and win friends for their entertaining football. We on the other hand stick to our philosophy, are naive, play really dull football, have scored the least number of goals in the football league and will go down with a whimper, with other fans only sorry to see us go because we are an easy three points. It’s difficult to now see what the club is hoping to achieve by persevering and feels like we are in a holding pattern until we lose so many games they have to fire him.

That’s the great thing about the PL. We know Liverpool have the better players and, we are missing our best keeper ( bazanu) and striker ( stewart) but they are coming to our home pitch and they won’t have faced our level of intensity and bravery before in the PL, so it’s been going to be close but I’m going 8- 6 saints and we will double our goals tally for the entire season in one single game

we will certainly miss stewart’s goals

Is there any chance of Ross being back for this one ? Feels like we have missed him since his injury at arsenal.

Having checked the league tables in all four divisions, I see that we have the least number of goals scored by some distance. I appreciate we don’t have the best forward line in history, but it’s a sad indictment of the way we play the game, that it generates so few goals.

What’s the point in spending a lot of money in January, they keep repeating the same mistakes. Suspect by January we will be cut adrift so hopefully they don’t bother and save their cash and spend it more wisely next year, as this season is a write off.

I cannot see us getting 20 points. That assumes we play to our strengths but we won’t so I think we have to assume a hefty discount for the fact we are so badly coached. Looking at the fixture list by the time we get to xmas there’s every chance we will still only have 4 points. Over Xmas looks more promising but we will be effectively down by then so god knows what morale would be like. I will go for low teens - ramsdale will play a couple of blinders and there will be some meaningless matches in the Spring where the other team will be on the beach and that gives us a decent opportunity to pick up a win or two. What a season this is !!!

Most of the players aren’t good enough if we’re honest ( particularly in attack) but it’s whether we want to be relegated with approx 10 points or at least try and make a fight of it. I’m not sure what the club is expecting - it’s not just going to click into place. At the moment we’re not competitive and we have the wrong manager for the current situation and players. Seems pretty obvious but unless there’s someone better waiting in the wings what’s the point ? Ultimately we were shit during our last season in the PL and we are even worse now and you can only lay so much of that on RM. The club is not well run and the recruitment has with a few exceptions been really poor so I hope we don’t piss more money up the wall in January until we’ve got a decent scouting set up but I won’t hold my breath for that

Shea Charles is doing very well according to what I was told by a couple of Owls fans. The prospect of a return for Irelands no.1 is pretty depressing - another total aberration by the club

We will be relegated regardless of who the manager is, but we have lost 9 of 11 games and there is no sign of any improvement. It’s clearly not going to click and the club is kidding itself if it thinks we are within touching distance of nirvana. It’s a flawed philosophy and we are just too easy to play against. Once we are all but relegated ( this could be before Xmas) morale will drop like a stone. We could conceivably lose 30 games + this season ! I can’t see how he survives that whatever great plans they have and this looks like it could be the worst season in our history. Agreed on Fernandes but our recruitment for some time now has been poor and we have wasted so much money

Mclaren and casper ?

basically it would cost a bazanu or a shea charles given our propensity to waste money on shit players seems relatively cheap

bazanu

Looks like we will be effectively down by Xmas as that was last chance saloon today. No shots on target in a must win game. I still think he will be here by Xmas but I can’t see him being here next season whatever guff SR might talk about ten year plans. Once we are effectively down the morale will drop like a stone and we will be on the end of some serious hidings and it will start to get toxic quickly. I just can’t see SR not capitulating before the end of the season.. They won’t of course act when it’s still possible to do something to change the outcome ( albeit with our attack I think most managers would struggle to keep us up) but I can’t se him getting through this season as it’s going to be pretty grim. We’ve already lost 9 from 11 and can anyone see it getting better ? There absolutely nothing to indicate it will. But as we keep saying who on earth will they appoint next. I have no faith in these guys at all and you get the feeling most decent managers will give us a wide berth.
