Oldandtired

You ought to do a halftime comedy show.

I don’t know. I might wait and be a glory hunter, get a half season if they’re doing well. I’m not overly bothered about a wet Tues evening in December watching us, 11th, vs Stoke, 13th, or something tbh, especially if some form of var is introduced. I’ve watched Saints for 65 odd years now and can honestly say that this season has put me off a bit. Whether it’s just me getting too old or what I don’t know but I’m not too sure I’m that bothered anymore.

Which would've been absolutely pointless, in both senses of the word, judging by experience of him in the prem this season. He admits once again that he won't change, so how does he expect to do a good job in the PL. Not good enough by a country mile.

Deja vu. Where was he who must but not be named when we appointed him? Oh I remember, Mid table in the championship. Noooooo...

Agree about Bednarek, forgot to give him a mention in despatches in my post.

I enjoyed last night despite that ‘we wuz robbed’ feeling at the end ( although tbh we weren’t really, they might have had that feeling too thanks to the bar [that would have been some goal btw] and a Ramsdale super save). Positives were the graft that they all put in until the subs…I have to single out KWP here, whatever his limitations he worked his butt off last night. Also I started to get a glimpse of the player Big Les could become, he certainly gave it a go. Cons were TD.. I almost think we might see him here next season…surely no one would want to buy a seemingly petulant youngster who can’t be arsed anymore…especially at the stupid money Saints reportedly want for him. And Ramsdale.. yes a worldie save, but should he have saved their goal? The question is there just as it has been for a few of the goals he’s let in lately. A few others but on the whole much more enjoyable than other games of late.

I can't go to this one. Of course, we will win.

Gonna be needed for those wet December mid table Tuesday evening games against Stoke...

Not on his present form he won’t.

Fed up with watching it, fed up with talking about it…. You know the barrel is not very deep when scraping the bottom of it involves bringing on JS as a forward. For something a bit different has anybody else noticed that the number of empty seats in the directors box seems to be growing? Anyone got any good conspiracy theories?

Who with these credentials would want to come here atm, and, possibly more importantly, who have we got that is capable of identifying them?

Nah, two clicks down on the left hand paddle…

I’ve seen a lot worse shouts on here….😎

The problem is he's not wrong.

Watching that I felt sure that RM has been taken on City’s coaching staff….all looked so familiar.

We ought to send SR to the dark side of the moon, pigs that they are.

I would contend that in our case the line between those two is extremely blurred.

...bar one.

and replace with what? As far as I can see we are in a catch 22 situation of the worst kind. Yes we can get hopefully get rid of the dross but how are we going to replace with anything better? I can't see anybody of quality wanting to come here, so is it just more mediocrity to make the numbers up? I don't trust our system to find the quality in numbets that we are going to need, we don't just need one or two we need virtually a whole new team. Where are they going to come from and who is going to find them?

Thanks Russ.

I'm not totally convinced that we are going to attract the kind of players we are going to need nor have the skills in our club to identify those players. What I most fear is that we are just going to end up with more of the same. As I've said before we won the lottery last season but you don't very often do that twice.

Under ffp rules clubs are only allowed to spend so much on shirt name letters in a season.

I believe that’s called ‘hedging your bets’.

Compared to 2 other Saints cbs that's a definite plus...

I think once you let go the hope and just look for moments it makes life a lot easier. This was definitely a moment.
