Daft Kerplunk Posted 8 May, 2023 Share Posted 8 May, 2023 8 hours ago, Toussaint said: 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. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DT Posted 8 May, 2023 Share Posted 8 May, 2023 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.

SNSUN Posted 8 May, 2023 Share Posted 8 May, 2023 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... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Saint Fan CaM Posted 8 May, 2023 Share Posted 8 May, 2023 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.
