Five subs! Last throw of the dice from Ralph? The one sub we badly need to make is for you Ralph.

The league table doesn't lie, we are where we deserve to be and drastic surgery will be needed to restore our fortunes. A 3-1 defeat to the Hammers today is likely and will serve only to confirm the trajectory we are on. Ralphball like Trussonomics is dead in the water. Who will go first? Ralph on Monday, Truss on Tuesday................ Sunak will have to decide if replacing Truss is a better career option than replacing Semmens.

To be fair none of the other strikers have a clue how to go about scoring goals and generally run around like headless chickens so why not give Theo a chance. He might surprise everyone and if not what's the loss.

The majority of PL referees who apparently retain adolescent instincts.

Sadly, we seem to have one already. Certainly has not been able to use us as a stepping stone if ever that was his intention.

Then vote with your feet and your chequebook!

Brownnose chiming in with his usual vacuous trash, has he become the official spokesperson for the secretive regime at Britannia Road

Probably why RH is still here, the club would be in an even worse mess with a mass exodus to deal with.

I am one of those fans of 30 years ago and incidentally one of those fans of 60 years ago and you are right, up with this we would not have put. Nowadays, I protest in my own way by voting with my feet and will not be stepping into St Mary's again until this bunch of clowns have moved on Blackmore has a voice and is in a position to be part of the solution but sadly has chosen to become part of the problem.

Blackmore talking horse sh*t as usual. Loud mouth know all, piss off!

Yourself included in that judging by taking me seriously. I was actually joking!

There's even the possibility that the don't give a sh*t about Saints, they've realised too late that they've bought a bum steer managed by imbeciles and so are busy trying to get rid of the Club lock, stock and barrel so that they can re-build their project around another PL club.

He probably knows where the bodies are buried. Too close to Semmens and let's face it Ralph is cover for the club's failures. Semmes will have to carry the can if Ralph leaves.

Strikers on strike, midfielders in mid-life crisis and defenders in a last ditch stand. Not a lot to build on going forwards.

Even you must admit this was inexcusable ineptitude on a grand scale despite the circumstances. Awful to watch. We are becoming a laughing stock amongst neutrals.

Where tf is our midfield today? Ward-Prowse might as well be in the stands if all he wants to do is stand around watch the ball flying past him every time and Stu is clueless and well past his sell-by date. Spineless football at its very worst. Can't see Bella Kotchap hanging around for long with this bunch of clueless twats. We really do look second rate.

Thanks. Saves us having to watch the slaughter tomorrow. keeping it to 7-1 will be hailed as a victory in the Ralphiesphere

He looked rattled at today's press conference, no doubt he'd read the article as well. Sad that he is such a lovely, respectful and principled guy. That part of it we will miss immensely.

Was Mane's the last one for Saints?

Well short in fact. He's paid zillions to get results and deserves criticism for not doing so year after year. It is beyond parody that he is still here preaching and practising the same bulls*it football that has achieved nothing in nigh on four of the most disappointing years we have ever had to endure in our City. By the time that lot up top have grown some b*lls and kicked him out the door it will be far too late to recover our league status or the support of many fans.

Oh dear. What is life without hope? Cheer up for goodness sake!

You have summed up perfectly my own feelings towards Saints at the moment and probably those of many long term fans. Totally bewildered by what's happened and is happening week-to-week.

If City play as well as they did yesterday, almost certainly this will be Ralph's annual 9-0 thrashing. I see no way that our centre backs can stop Haaland or indeed Foden. If ever there will be a 'hide behind the sofa' moment this coming weekend will be it. At least old Ralphie boy will go out with a bang!.⚡💥

League 2 is a good place to start if they intend to remodel and rebuild the club on solid foundations from the ground up. However it will take a couple more seasons to clear the rubble to get the new build underway.

why?
