Long Shot

Lots of shoulds

Bad result imo. The chances of catching Leicester are low

Not impressed with him at all. I hope this is bogus info. Much prefer Brooks

Never known such a quiet window. I still feel a proper goal scorer to be necessary. Had we someone like Danny Ings upfront we would be up with Leicester by now.

Our finishing is dreadful

Burnley fans not happy with this news. Bit strange as he’s a similar player to Tella who hindsight says we shouldn’t have let go.

Fair enough. The Tories (this bunch anyway) have literally ripped the country off while ruining it at the same time. A man is prepared to stand up and be counted and you deem that to be smug? Oh well.

Fair play to you for even admitting you vote Tory (even taking into account you are anonymous)

A few worries from last nights game, if I am being picky. All that first half dominance should have created more chances. Fannying around at the back is just asking for trouble Martin is trying to accommodate Jack S back into the team which is upsetting the balance. He is no full back and he looks rusty. Sort those three things out and I will be happy.

Strange post. A fit and firing Martin would have made a huge difference. Relying on Armstrong is ridiculous as he is inconsistent. Ok one minute and crap the next. Looks like we may have to recall the Turkish goal machine.

This makes perfect sense

Did you watch it? You sound satisfied? If you are you need to have a long hard look at yourself because it was awful fayre. Boring, unexciting pedestrian predictable and full of errors. There was not a decent Saints player on the pitch tonight. They were all shit and you pronounce yourself satisfied. Sums us up I guess.

Just plain boredom. Watching Saints is like watching paint dry

Arma takes his time and a great chance lost

Absolutely hits the mail on the head

I agree. Convict should be out celebrating but he prefers to goad fellow fans. As you say dick swinging is more important. Today was good. Wednesday not so good but CC only has one gear.

It’s all gone very quiet on his injury. Would have thought we might have had some news by now. Fingers crossed for the lad.

This team is nowhere near the standard of the side that went up in 11-12. Play offs at best

Not trying to dampen your enthusiasm but I think you are getting ahead of yourself a little here. Good win today but while we are picking up points let’s remember a lot of our wins are by a single goal or late goals. It doesn’t matter I hear you say but so far this season we lack the dominance a top two team needs in their performances. I think play off is a reasonable bet but compare this side with the one that went up in 2011 and there’s no comparison.

This

Not a chance

Funny man

Got to be a positive step. Lots of experience anyway.

You are twisting my words. Those late goals while welcome are papering over the cracks of some very ordinary and tedious performances. Some fans are so desperate to endorse Martin that they’ll manipulate all manner of stats to suit their argument. Going on the standard of our football, the mundane tactics, our defensive record and apathy of a large swathe of the fan base (see previous posts), I maintain we have managed find ourselves yet another manager incapable of making us anything other than mediocre.

Sorry as usual you are golding the lily. Trying to make out the likes of Stephens and Bednarek have improved because of Martin is bullshit. Both players came back from their loan periods better players. Martin is making good players go backwards. Charles is a good example. Looked a good signing when he first arrived, now he looks awful. Holgate looks like he never played in the PL. I could go on. Martin is a poor manager with a poor record and had it not been for a flurry of late goals we would be in the lower half of the table. Get your head out of the sand.
