It is without doubt a huge gamble and smacks off they have accepted we are NOT getting to the playoffs let alone promoted. The new keeper may turn out to be a good upgrade but it is far too early to judge that.

Stunned that he's suddenly gone from our number 1 to potentially out the door to Stoke. Nothing this club does makes any sense anymore. Just why the fuck have we persisted with Baz so long and not used McCarthy if they believed the same as us and he was not very good. I don't believe it was putting him in the shop window because anyone with an eye would realise he has some major flaws to his game.

I'm really regretting wasting £70 on 2 tickets for Saturday. To think i could just stay at home and stick knitting needles in my eyes and it would be less painful and not as costly as watching Saints!

I wish Tonda for once would quit with this playing the party line and call a spade a spade. "We were decent in the first half and at half time were where we should be against a team struggling in Div 1." We were utter shit second half and the performance was unforgivable. We have a worrying lack of mental strength and lack any backbone and leadership and these are traits that have been with us for the last 2 seasons" Bloody say it as it is Tonda you spineless cretin!

unfortunately i was thinking the same!

we have found our level

His position is nailed on!

I do find the situation really weird

Its sad that i dont give a shit about todays game. Watched the Wrexham game last night full of passion and flair, it had a bit of everything and just reminded me how we have now been passed by a Welsh side that play with so much pride.

I know it really is bizzare, they may as well have come out and said we have 3 really shit keepers but we are going to play the one we reckon is the worst so you all can see for yourselves and then we are going to replace him with a loan keeper and tell him ala West Ham and JWP that it's best you move on now Baz. This club....just when i thought there wasn't anything else they could surprise me with!

If we are now looking to sell him then the decision to play him in virtually every game this season is just absolutely bizarre, what does it say about McCarthy?

In principle i don't disagree with you. However what i would be very interested in knowing "is this the same for other Championship clubs this week"? If the answer is yes and they are all having a few days off then although it still grates it's at least in line with everyone else......however if we are the only ones or one of a minority of clubs then thats where i would have issue considering how shit their performances have been!

fully expect him to be in line to step straight in otherwise whats the point, he didn't want to warm a bench!

It feels to me that this club is finished in regards to being a serious potential Premier League side within the next 2 seasons with Sports Republic as owners. They have had a long enough run at trying to be decent owners but they make the same mistakes over and over and over again. They learn absolutely nothing. Really poor manager selections Really poor people in positions where player recruitment is Far too many shit signings and the renewing of player contracts where the players concerned should have been shown the door Signing players for this multi club thing that has no benefit to Saints Insisting the club plays one brand off football (it has to be a club directive, far too many recent managers have all played the same) For me the future looks bleak.

I felt really sorry for leo who came over to the fans at the end of the game and all he got was one guy absolutely hurling abuse at him. I get emotions were high, fans had travelled bloody miles in the freezing cold to see such a shower of shit BUT to give the one player who has shown any spark all season so much abuse is just wrong. Leo didn't have a great game and one could argue he left the player that scored their first all alone but that does not warrant the abuse hurled at Leo. The video clip is on Twitter
