Saint Billy

Tbh, most of the new signings looked decent first few games until Ralph really got his claws into them, then it all went to shit, and expecting a guy who managed a mid table championship side to put right years of crap is just plain craziness of the first degree.

No way, If I had a magic button you wouldn't see these owners, manager or squad.

I can't think of anything positive to say regarding saints atm. We are rock bottom because we have clueless owners who in their wisdom took far too long to sack a constantly clueless manager, and then decide to hire a second rate manager who is also obviously clueless to manage a bunch of clueless players and hope he has what it takes to get us out of a relegation fight in the toughest league in the world. The end result is what we are watching on the pitch.

Especially considering that was our top priority in the summer and we failed in getting anyone in.

The ironic thing is that if he regularly scored goals like the one against West Brom he would have been off anyway to a bigger club. When you support a club outside the top six and lower you can't win either way.

We didn’t start playing progressive and attacking football until after the french scored. Sometimes too much caution is a dangerous thing. We gave the ball away too much and in dangerous positions when attempting to play safe passes. Yes the ref was crap, but the french were always dangerous when attacking whereas we were tentative and hopeful. I like Southgate but I think he instills too much caution in our game which stifles our play. I’d prefer we played right from the word go like we started to after the french scored.

The minute I saw Maguire and Stones endlessly passing to eachother I gave up being interested. I've seen enough of this type of shit with saints to know that it rarely results in a win and the only person happy with that performance is Southgate. So bloody frustrating when there is an abundance of talent in our squad that could prove to the world we now have what it takes to win the world Cup with flair and yet Southgate decides to revert to setting up his side with the priority of not losing, and nearly was unstuck doing that.

Nuns are always welcome now we have God on our side.

Thank you.

With you on that. Not that it is a requirement to have good interview skills, he did come across very nervous and hyper. I feel he was treading a fine line of trying to keep the Luton fans content just in case he doesn't get the job whilst eager not to send the wrong messages to SR. Not sure how his type of personality will go down with our players but from my perspective it doesn't install confidence.

It was a definite no from me and even more so after watching that. The fact that we are considering this guy is so wrong on so many levels. It's like casting your line out to catch a marlin but reeling in a sprat and being told to be happy about it.

He's going to have no hands pretty soon then.

If there is a God I'm pretty sure he has more important things to deal with than assisting some guy managing a football club.

Feck, it wasn't just a bad dream.

Not a problem if he keeps it to himself and doesn't spout about it in football interviews.

I really don't know what to make of this, either SR are deluded or they are geniuses. All feels like an anti climax atm and thoroughly depressing but time will tell I suppose.

New owners but we still manage to handle everything in a chaotic and southampton way.

Rather than being an asset I think he is part of the problem. Without his dead ball ability what does he actually add to the team. A captain and kingpin of the side who does neither.

Lavia will come on then go off early with reoccurrence of injury. JWP will have another ineffective game but wii manage to play a couple of decent back passes. Lynaco will get sent off for giving the ref a glaswegian kiss. A Armstrong will scuff an almighty divot out of the turf which will bust the net but the ball will trickle over the line for a goalkick. RH will sit on his seat with his head in his hands most of the match thinking "what the fuck do i have to do for them to sack me, ffs just do it now so I can leave with my contract payout and get out of this hell hole".

My gid golly aunt

What on earth is A Armstrong doing on a football pitch. I've given up feeling sorry for him.

All of a sudden we have become a fecking goal machine.

First I've heard of it, what is meant to be happening?.

A loss at Bompey will surely be the straw that breaks the camels back as far as Ralph is concerned. If we win will we be happy to see him carry on or will we have the hump?

Well let's talk positives, the point moves us up to................... Oh!
