Should go back to Plymouth, if they'll take him.

We got beat convincingly by Bristol City and Sunderland, to back you up with two examples.

Furthermore, why did the bloke agree to signing them in the first place!!!?

Course people will rock up. Cost of living crisis my arse. Many of our fans are seemingly willing to burn their hard-earned cash and then rub the ashes into their eyes. Good analogy? I tried.

I mean, fair play. Do him and his coaching team take us for absolute mugs or wet-behind-the-ears pricks? We've, in recent history, seen our club get to League Cup Finals, European football, beat all the 'big clubs' on a regular basis. He can't expect anything more than he's getting if our fans are offering up some discontent.

Could well end in double figures if we're not careful.

So naive and sloppy.

They'll start chopping up the tea leaves with their Japanese hand crafted scissors as soon as the final whistle goes, I reckon.

Worried it could be more than 9 this time around...

Gallows fucking humour tonight then, boys?

Fuxking tinpot excuse for a professional body. "Oh, sorry our autonomous ineptitude has lead to a colossal loss of revenue and status for your club, hope you can forgive little old us"

It's this inconsistency that can cost teams a place in the league itself.

Really is getting to be a bit of a farce. The concerning thing is players that have proven themselves to be high quality, like KWP, actually worsening in performances under Martin's stewardship...

Happy birthday pal. Hope the boys put in a good shift for you and you get a nice three points as a surprise present.

This scares me as one of those games we get dicked in. A 'fighting performance' or an 'unlucky defeat' against a table-topping side, then followed by an absolute pasting by a focused and high-quality side that are ready to capitalise and take the game to us.

That's fucking tin pot right there. Shit hole of a stadium, no wonder they can't be arsed to light it up for all to see.

This will be like the Red Guards 'storming' the Winter Palace. We'll lie down on our backs and spread our legs, I'm sure.

Sports Republic should be the focus of any ire and frustration, far more so than those were employed by them to fulfil roles beyond their capabilities.

Sports Republic. Sold every Southampton manager they've employed down the fucking river by throwing shit at a wall and hoping it will stick. Russell Martin, taking the Man City style and applying it to Championship squads. A simply divine combination.

I'm going back to my original position at the start of the season. Chopping and changing managers has seen us deteriorate (alongside many other factors, particularly piss-poor player recruitment). I therefore reiterate the idea that Russ should stay even when we get relegated. Let's build something long lasting. Russ is young and has shown signs of adapting and learning - not radically, admittedly - and therefore could easily take us back up next season. Basically, let's endure the shite served up this season and hope next summer's recruitment is sensibly ambitious.

I thought Stewart was still two weeks* away? *Months?

Absolutely.
