This is truly pathetic. We have some awful players, don’t we?

I don't know who has watched him this season and thinks there is potential there. He does nothing to even an average level, every aspect of his game is utter shit.

Worst first team keeper I’ve ever seen to play more than a few cameo games eg Keller, Woods etc. Nowhere near good enough for a promotion push even as a back up next season, we will need to sign an experienced keeper to compete with McCarthy. Loan Gavin out to a League two side next season to rebuild his career and resurrect any potential. I don’t think he’s even up to League One now with the confidence knock. Might get back to that level (League One) later in his career but I’m not convinced he will play for SFC again or that he’ll ever be SFC level.

[The Juice]

Right... I'm off to read. This manager is a joke. These players are not good enough and I'm not wasting my time with any of them.

Goodnight and solidarity with all striking tomorrow. 

[LGTL]

Wonder if Ducky has his tongue out of Jones’ arse yet? 

[northam soul]

How many new players are we signing today.

Fucking shit bunch of cunts

[The Kraken]

Well this has started well.

[Crab Lungs]

Well, this is fun.

League 1 manager at best, I’m sorry to say. 
 

I have already said it, he still reminds me of a Kids Sunday league manager giving it the big I am. 
 

Surely he has lost the dressing room after this

This was obvious from day one, yet people will still be on here at the next game defending him. Absolutely pathetic.

[RedArmy]

Thank fuck we won’t have to worry about going deep into cup competitions next year when we’re in the championship. 

[Saint_Jonny]

Utterly pathetic performance. 

[Greenridge]

Is Bree not playing? 

Ralph might lose his 9-0 record tonight.

[sydney_saint]

If I was KWP, I would be calling my agent at half time and seeing if I can get a move away. If you are going to play in this shitshow, at least be played in your best position. That right is just diabolical.

Can we boo him now? 

[CB Fry]

Personally I think it's brilliant the way our new manager has made us into a bunch of nasty bastards who no opposition wants to play because we are so hard to beat

[Holmes_and_Watson]

Cut apart. Lovely passing move. We didn't get close to them at any part of it. The difference between a team that anticipates and moves into space, against a tactically limited, disjointed side with no effective creative plz.

[aintforever]

Bree was jogging back for their second.

Awful selection. Nathan Jones is such a rubbish manager.

never seen a player so much out his depth than James Bree. Awful, absolutely awful.

This is going to be embarrassing 

[GDog07]

Got in late from work.

Don’t know why I was looking forward to this, what a mess, turning it off as soon as I’ve turned it on, we’re not going to any final, we’re in for a hiding.

Shame for those who made the effort to go tonight.

[Mr X]

SR surely have to wake up and smell the coffee now? Jones is way way out of his depth 

[coalman]

What this game needs is to take off one of Adams or Armstrong and bring on Elyounoussi.

[Simo is back]

Dog shit manager dog shit team selection equals dog shit performance 

[badgerx16]

What was the point in signing Bree ? A total waste of £750K.

[saintant]

Men and boys all over the pitch.

[Crab Lungs]

Players look at odds with each other, which is worrying.

[AlexLaw76]

We are switching to 4 at the back it seems (if I can read the mouth of Jones)

Why on earth we continue to persist with the ridiculous set up of 3/5 at the back, is beyond me

[Suhari]

Wonder if Ralph has had a nice break, and would fancy coming back now we've got a couple of better attackers?

[bpsaint]

Fucking shambolic. Wish Jones would just get the fuck out of our club.

Man hasn’t scored at SJP for 4 years, now has 2 in 20 minutes 😂

I hope the fans up there make their feelings known

Lord Dickhead was giving himself repeated pats on the back about his support of Jonesey just a week or so ago, the silly cunt. But it’s probably the players and not the stupid setup or something.

[Crab Lungs]

Bit early to write Bree off totally. Don’t know why he’s getting pelters. It’s his debut. He’s been sh1te, but one game? Cmon.

Probably because one half knows the other half shouldn’t be playing. 

[Wiggles31]

We are awful. I’m hate this season. 

[LVSaint]

Ok, can turn this stream off now...pity, it was very clear and fluid. Get some work done. Fuck you Nathan

[Baird of the land]

Hoping this will convince Jones to ditch 5-3-2 as a starting formation

If you could read the mouth of Jones you deserve a knighthood!

No fucking son-in-laws in this side and no mistake. Jonesey is playing a blinder.

[bennyev]

This is all on Jones. 5 at the back with players who have never played it well.

In the biggest game we've had in years.

He should have used the City set-up.

Nice one

[MarkSFC]

As soon as I heard Bednarek was returning I was bemused. As soon as I saw he was playing tonight all the tiny bit of optimism I had for tonight disappeared. 

 

He is just awful. Slow, bad positioning bad decisions and can't tackle.

I've turned off, no point watching anymore.

Feel for all those who got the coach and won't be back in Southampton for another 9 hours.

[badgerx16]

I hope any signings yet to be confirmed are not watching this.

[Chez]

fuck off.

fuck five at the back.

fuck two strikers chasing shadows.

fuck this pathetic press that just leaves us short and open.

fuck off.

[Holmes_and_Watson]

Even clearing from the back is grim. We used to be a side that pressed opponents. Now we're undone by the slightest pressure. That's a few Has punts where we've just given it away.

[Miltonaggro]

Is it still half time Nathan?

I'm hoping it will convince Jones to accept he is out of his depth and resign.

Excited.

Looking forward to seeing if Bree is a proper player. I see he's been written off already on here.

Not a fan of five at the back, but perhaps he wants to keep it tight early on and grow into the game.

Jones' is clearly concerned about the size of Newcastle, so wants that extra CB. 

Edozie has flattered to deceive and may offer a nice option from the bench.

Amstrong has yet another chance down the middle, but I think he looked a genuine threat out wide last time.

Diallo had a good game against Newcastle last time, but can he repeat that? Hope so.

COYR.

Still excited?

We may as well start moulding a team for the championship as there's no way we are staying in the premier league

Wind your fucking neck in, abusing other fans on an online forum. Absolute hard man. Save your abuse for the players/manager

Well that's that. Jones is a clown. We can sign players all night until the deadline but it'll make no difference if we have Jones as manager.

Keep. This up for another 60min and they won't want to sign...
