At least it puts right the nauseating rubbish that came out when he got the job. Including some of this forum that had swallowed the idea that he was some wonder manager in the making, next stop Anfield. Ridiculous. He'd basically achieved something that the likes of Neil Lennon had achieved. He's clearly out of his depth and not living up to the celebrity hype. Let's hope it goes on a few months more so Villa become a proper relegation threatened club. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Cat Posted 29 August, 2022 Share Posted 29 August, 2022 It's the big non-league Southampton derby today. AFC Totton v Sholing. Hopefully a big crowd for this. I'll be going. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John Boy Saint Posted 29 August, 2022 Share Posted 29 August, 2022 I thought Garth Crooks had been binned off from the BBC or was that just his presence on TV, and allowed to do his team of the week. Having just seen his Team of the Week on the Beeb website prompted the question - His choices were predictable. Thankfully none of the Saints team warranted inclusion having been “hammered” by Utd - so not touted about every club with money to spend as a result.

The Cat Posted 29 August, 2022 Share Posted 29 August, 2022 AFC Totton 0-1 Sholing. Tight game, Totton had more possession but Sholing hit them on the break with about 25 mins to go and held on. 913 there so a great attendance. An enjoyable bank holiday afternoon.

FarehamSaintJames Posted 30 August, 2022 Share Posted 30 August, 2022 Very idiotic from Bournemouth I think. Bit harsh especially four games in when three of them were Arsenal, Man City and Liverpool - and they won the fourth game. I’m not saying he’s a great manager by any means but seems very stupid when the window ends in a couple of days. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

S-Clarke Posted 30 August, 2022 Share Posted 30 August, 2022 (edited) This is more than just the 9-0, apparently there has been a fundamental bust up behind the scenes. Parker asking for 'more money' and saying that the squad is underequipped has infuriated their owner, apparently. He funded a bit of a spree last January to get them out of the Championship, on the opinion that those players would be long-term investments - not just quick buys to get them out of the league, and it seems as if Parker saw them as short-term fixes and wanted more money this summer. He's probably not wrong, you can't say Keefer Moore is a long-term investment. But it looks like both sides have been idiots here and communication was crap.

tajjuk Posted 30 August, 2022 Share Posted 30 August, 2022 Yeh he wasn't sacked because of the 9-0, he basically came out after and said all the players were crap and we haven't bought anyone in so how can you expect them to compete.

Didn't they spend a load of money last season to get promoted again though and had a bunch of expensive loans? And they spent a load of money whilst in the premier league last time too ? They have got a crap squad though. But at the end of the day, if the manager and chairman aren't aligned then there is no point carrying on. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Forest are… well nobody has seen anything like what Forest are doing. Bournemouth have a little quality but this is probably the toughest league in years and I just struggle to see them surviving.
