Brooks and Fraser are only good when in the ascendancy. Brooks is a proper flat track bully.

What the fuck just happened.

That looks proper nasty, like he's been bitten.

That Mikey Johnston looks a good player.

We've had the best chance in the game, Downes in the first half.

Great stat there - second most goals and assists from the subs bench this season. Slams the myth that Martin is shit at making subs.

It's a shoehorn because it's not Arma's natural position, and he's been poor there when playing there. Play our best player in his best position and we'll have a better chance.

Probably why you're not a football Manager...

But I'm not sure we can do anything else - we don't have any other strikers fit. Fraser, Kumaldeen, Brooks won't be any better at holding the ball up. Surely we've had enough shoe-horning of players into positions they don't play.

To be fair, I think #Martino has the edge on Leeds.

I don't know why everyone thinks today is going to be easy. It will NOT be easy - this division is full of hard to call games - especially when you get to the top 6. West Brom are a good outfit and will push us all the way. Not easy. West Brom 0 - 4 Saints.

No, I'll never hope we lose - however I have really enjoyed this season.

90%? So for every 90 minutes of play this season, we've been shit for 81 minutes of it?

I think a lot of posters on here have become a parody of themselves - the entitlement is frankly absurd. Russ has done a decent job, not outstanding, but fuck me some of the goals we score are amazing.

I can't believe some of you fuckers would prefer to watch us being spanked week in, week out in the Prem. More games, more fun, better football, more wins - Championship is great.

We could only wish for mid-table mediocrity if we got promoted...

Watched it in Koh Samui, in the only bar showing it, the Portsmouth bar. Tbh, the landlord was pretty good about it after the Idiakez penalty, he covered my bill for the evening.

No, it was dogshit, hence why I wasn't overly bothered about being relegated.

100% agreed - this has been the most fun season we've had since Koeman left imo.

And that's the difference - I see it as entertainment - mainly due to the fact that if we see it as competition, we've all made a pretty shitty decision to support Saints...

If we got promoted yesterday's performance would be the pinaccle. Our best player this season was shit in the PL, we would need a whole new team (apart from KWP).

So if you don't watch football for entertainment, why do you watch it/follow it?

You can play incredible football and also look shaky in areas? It's been far more fun than the last few years in the PL.

Considering I just wanted to watch entertaining football, and didn't want to get promoted back to the Premier League, it's been pretty much the perfect season for me. I've watched some incredible football, seen a lot of goals and we don't have to play next season in that cesspit of a Premier League.

Seems like we've thrown this one to get Ipswich in the playoffs...or the players want Martin sacked.
