Jesus Christ. 

Definitely five at the back then, AMN and Perraud wing backs, Bree probably CB because he has height.

Jones really hates Croatia doesn’t he.

I've always been a fan of a decent pair of croatians - Jones definitely out

[derry]

Could be a 4-2-3-1 with Lavia and AMN in front of back four. 

[Elbitrevnoc]

Was it a left uppercut?

No he isn't. He was our best player against Newcastle and average last week (compared to most other players' below average performances). The hate towards him is because he's a Jones signing who'd played with him previously. For the money we paid for him, ff we'd signed him from some midtable Spanish club and his name was Jhamez Breehino, he'd be seen as an "alright" signing.

No he wasn’t he was horrendous against Newcastle, what game were you watching? Never seen a player so out of his depth in that first half against Newcastle, what a ridiculous comment to say he was our best player.

That still leaves JWP/Alcaraz playing as a winger, which they are not

[LGTL]

Hopefully DCC goes out in style by lamping Jones. Would make my year.

Looking like he's frozen out DCC, Orsic and ABK then. No excuse for none of them to not even be on bench otherwise unless all 3 suddenly got injured.

DCC - 23 international caps

ABK - played in the wc with germany

Orsic - scored in the 3rd place playoff.

[OttawaSaint]

Stepping back and trying to look at it objectively, but can see why anyone would put AMN or Janny in at all. It's ludicrous.

Rarebit's wife: that shed you've been building is going to fall down.

Rarebit: nonsense I built an incredible shed at our old place in Luton, best shed in Europe!

And besides I used the best tools for the job.

*flashback memory*

Rarebut walks past a cordless drill and nail gun. Grabs a butter knife and milk bottle. 

Yeah, built a great shed...

Won't let me upload a decent image but flashscores has 4231, with Lavia and Alcarez as the 2, AMN on the right of the 3. Hoping that's an error and AMN and Alcarez are swapped around at least. 

[OttawaSaint]

Soucek just saved a goalbound effort with his hand.  No pen after VAR. Lol what?!?

My first impressions seeing that lineup were that we’ve got a real chance of turning them over today. It’s not perfect but it could have been a lot worse. 

Isn't it his job, with all the players available to make it perfect?

Well who was then?? He was fine in the second half and average  in the first half. Nobody else was even close to being "fine".

Then again we had Cedric at RB for several years so maybe my standards are just shot to pieces.

How?

He hasn't played any matches (except 45 mins in the B team).

First start for the 2 newbies, hopefully can show some class. 

[LuckyNumber7]

DCC was signed as an upgrade and to replace fucking 'Janny B'. Now he can't even make the bench and Bednarek is a weekly starter.

Meanwhile our new signing who played in a WC semi final less than two months ago is kept out of the squad by Theo bloody Walcott.

I really wanted to give Jones a chance but he's actually making me feel sick.

[sandwichsaint]

Persisting with Bazunu is the definition of insanity, should have been out ten or a dozen games ago.

AMN seems a random selection.

Good to see the two newbies getting a start.

We are as good as down irrespective of what happens today, 

I will be optimistic, 2-2, JWP pen and ALcaraz.

Must have been one of the few Welsh pro players who never have. Anyway, a win would be better than a defeat so although I have my misgivings it'll be OK by me if he pulls it off. 🤞 

[trousers]

So, what happened to the new Jonesball philosophy of playing those not involved in the first team squad in the previous day's B-Team game...? It's almost as if he's making stuff up as he goes along...

I'm done with this absolute clown at our club. 

 

JONES OUT

[Ken Tone]

Just had stewards on the gate trying to stop me bringing in a flask of coffee. I've been bringing a flask to the Dell and St Mary's for c30 years with no problem. The club really tries to piss fans off doesn't it?!

Exhibit A.

Open and shut case. Why SR have put up with this is mind-boggling.

If they played for the B team they might have won their game. This would make Jones look bad when first team lose while he plays -3 drag factor Bednarek

Jones probably made the coffee at the stadium. Probably 10 year old decaf Maxwell House that nobody wanted.

There's only ONE good thing about that team sheet - it's reminded me I have a lovely wedge of Brie waiting for me for lunch

With the 1970s Gareth Hunt advert in mind, more likely to be Nescafé that Jones is making I'd have thought...

 

[Saint NL]

I've had a sudden wave of optimism rush over me.

I think it'll be shit from both teams and we'll win with a deflected shot off someones arse.

6 points at home out of a possible 30 available.

Yeah we’ve got this haven’t we?

Going 1-3 but at least we got a goal.

I’d just like to point out that Wolves have got Mario Lemina in their lineup.
