I sort of hope we win our last 3 and stay up, but In reality I hope  we don’t, there is so much change required that probably the only way it will come about is through relegation. Just imagine how insufferable the arseholes who run our club would be if we performed a “great escape” Rasmus congratulating himself on his “breaking” something, the continuation of the signing hi risk players for potential profit. Possibly even the continuation of the god awful Selles.

We are currently a mess of a club, an embarrassment and a bit of a laughing stock amongst people involved in the game. 


So bollocks to this lot, players and management alike. Bollocks to Rambo, Semenns, the players who haven’t put in the effort or shown courage under fire, the dreadful Selles. Special shout out to Semmens for focusing on Wokery while Rome burned and finding this shower to take over the club.

 

Oh, and one other thing, bollocks to our ticketing policy of getting bums on seats by any means resulting in the proliferation of away fans and football tourists in home areas, and another bollocks to the minimal away allocations we take up and the favourable treatment of away fans 

Agree with all apart from the ‘wokery’ bit. That’s just about being good human beings who don’t dislike people for being different, and don’t buy in to the false culture war being stoked to take people’s attention from the important things in life. He’s wrong about women’s football become more popular than men’s football any time soon but that’s not a ‘woke’ thing, that’s just being stupid and saying stuff that’s meaningless in reality.

McCarthy; AMN, ABK, Bednarek, KWP; Lavia, JWP; Sulemena, Armstrong; Alcaraz, Adams.

Surely this is our best hope of a win? 

Our best hope for a win is for NF to only field 8 players. And even then we’d make hard work of it! 🤣

Be harder to win if they had 8 players, as Nathan would assure us.

Kidding but if that was the team I would go fucking crazy.

We could do with having a whole country in midfield, might squeak a draw...

That’s ok, would have preferred Bree to AMN other than that it’s  ok. Maybe he finally looked at the table?

After the Forest result and now against Everton, it looks like Brighton are doing all they need to send their south coast rivals down!

We aren’t rivals, Brighton is about a 1.5 hour drive from here.

Can’t really complain at that line up 

Perhaps sulemana for Walcott 

That's probably our best lineup tbf. You could quibble about Sulemana but other than that I'm not sure why we haven't played this team more often.

How can Sky look at those stats and say that it was wrong to kick Ralph out? Laughable.

It was only wrong because the next 2 have been worse.

Like throwing away a stale sandwich thinking that you'll be getting a freshly prepared baguette and then get handed two pieces of festering mouldy shit. 

That stale sandwich starts to look appealing again.

Watch us do the exact opposite of Everton’s performance under Dyche. The manager that numpties on here questioned and who we should have appointed. Quite obviously. Not sure I can face watching our gutless wonders after this masterclass from Dyche and spirited players who actually care.

No, but it's interesting that I've been saying for a while that he should have conceded 10 less goals and it's actually 16.

LOL, very true

He has been blatantly out of his depth since near the start of the season. Amazing to read/hear fans comment that 'there is player in there'

Damning stats for Bazunu there, Sky saying he should have conceded 16 less goals based on Xg. 

And yet, 3 managers persisted with him game after game after game when it was clear that he was massively out of this depth. He could very well go on to be a good keeper but his confidence is now shot and development hindered.

Agreed. Can't believe he was stuck with for so long considering so many other players get dropped/rotated at the drop of a hat.

Well lose tonight and we are effectively down (I know we are anyway) but we’ll be 9 behind Forest and 8 behind Everton with 3 to play. So we’d have to win every game and Everton lose every them all. Never going to happen

We're gone, have been for months.

Had we brought in a manager with a bit of nous to solidify the back and get the 10s to be positive and pass forward we'd have been safe by now. But we didn't. We haven't roared out of the gates once this season. We just plod plod plod hoping to bore the other team into submission.

We are down IMO but while I'd like to be put out of my misery sooner rather than later (and while I'd rather Forest survive over Leeds/Leicester), I'm actually hoping we win tonight for a few reasons. 1) Because while I'm at work I have Sky Go so I'm watching it. 2) Because I'd quite like us to at least get to 30 points this season. 3) Because I'm a Saints fan! 

 

Reasonable starting line up today, I think we will win. For all the good it will do us in the long run...

Yeah I know but tonight is the night it will be all but confirmed, I’m sure there will still be a few loons saying but if we did this…  but it’s the last post on the bugle tonight.

Good old Sky haven’t bothered with any Saints pundits again…

Forest legend Martin O’Neill and erm... Jamie Carragher !

I reckon the Franny is the only one we’ve had all season but not tonight 🤨

I guess that we’re just irrelevant !!

Don't bother watching it chaps: I've fucked it for us.

Not only am I watching it, paid for, not a dodgy stream - don't think we've won one when I've done this - I've also had a bet on us to win.

Foolish I know.

Soz.

Just as long as there are hairy Croatianuns. And gin.

We’ll not win this. So ponderously slow in attack, too wasteful with chances, too careless with passes. But most of all, Forest will still believe they can survive even with a draw and will provide a stiff defence which we will not be able to break down. Even if we dominate play, the first attack on the break will see us concede. We’ve all seen how this plays out time and time again, so there’ll be no surprises this evening.

Nevertheless, COYS!

What's point of having AMN there, he's not our player, is total shit and has a mare last game(s).

Who else would you play at full back, given Perraud is injured so we need KWP at left back?
