If they pull the trigger on Martin I hope that they get a right shithouse in to rocket these saps! Pearson, Strachan, Koeman, Hughes would have the measure of this shower in under a week.

Not gonna happen. He'll nor be sacked.

Best player against Ipswich as well. Knows how far the club has fallen in his time. 

[BotleySaint]

Bring back Ralph! I reckon he could do it if he was willing.

[santolijador]

Looking forward to see how RM spins this

[Baz Fl]

In need of a win?

on a losing streak?

bottom of your league?

call 1-800 Saints 

[Saint NL]

Foul throw?

Just amateur all round

[LGTL]

Honestly just sack the stupid cunt now and make him walk home.

RM bulls eye post match, "well we've had a lovely day..."

Expect to hear a lot about scar tissue despite not hearing anything about it prior to the Sunderland game.

He's done as well as anyone told that all the good things about hsi game can be jettisoned and he now has to play a new poistion that involves not getting involved in attacks and being nowhere near full back when he has to race back.

[Saint Fan CaM]

Incredible to see that the bottom team are actually better at the possession game than we are. Much better drilled than Saints. Russ is turning out to be an utter fraud.

Genuinely don't know where we go from here.

Rusty asking the official 'How long?'

Not long Rusty. You don't have long now.

Down, unless things change.

Baz out sharpish for that one. Nearly another one as they pass effortlessy through us.

[Saint NL]

All over.

Yet another disgrace, just inept all over the pitch.

Martin to go, no excuses now

Be terrible, as he was for large parts of last season. He has absolutely dined out on about three goals he scored when he first joined, he's done nothing since and in a lot of games last season just looked unfit.

Expand  

And Aribo?

[Holmes_and_Watson]

Be brave guys and hopefully all our new scars can be hidden.

[SotonianWill]

We're actually doing a sunderland

Regardless of that fact, he is a professional footballer. Doesn't look to great for him when he goes back to West Ham if that's his attitude.

[OttawaSaint]

Hate what SR have done to our club.

Only KWP and SE deserve any credit. I hate the rest of them. 

Weak, pathetic, gutless, losers.

[Crab Lungs]

You just knew we’d be the ones to give Boro their first points. Every single one of us did.

This is actually a criminal level of managerial ineptitude to have us where we are, let alone the shite performances and wanky philosophy.

Alcaraz, arguably our best player last year can’t get on the pitch. Aribo can. Fuck off with your vanity project, Martin. 

Blah blah blah scar tissue. Blah blah blah trust the process. Fucking fraud.

[Sheaf Saint]

And there it is. Worst defensive record in the FL. 4 defeats on the bounce and not even the slightest hint of being able to arrest the slide. Too many players seemingly not giving a shit.

There is something seriously rotten inside this club right now.

[Guest]

He isn’t being sacked any time soon.

4 losses on the trot. Disgraceful for a club like ours in any league, really.

Bloke needs his P45 promptly. A fucking fraud.

No confidence from me. Right now rather toothless going forward combined with gift wrapping opposition goals. If i had to guess a 2-1 loss.

Annoyed by another pathetic loss

Exta annoyed because i predicted the score but didn't bet on it

I think we're in the relegation fight already. 

[coalman]

There comes a point where I have to wonder whether spending the last couple of hours of my life stapling my cock to the table might have been a better use of time.

[Winnersaint]

We will walk this league!

[Chez]

Thought Charles looked good in the first half. KWP had a decent game. 

Edozie, Sulamana and Stu all played well when they came on.

The rest were pretty poor to shite.

 

[qwertyell]

Yikes.

Boro were shite as well - missed several absolute sitters to kill the game.

Yikes.

[BotleySaint]

RM hasn't been unable to arrest the slide since the 5-0.

He put out a better team today, with players in their positions. But even that hasn't been enough.

Honestly most of the time the players look like they can't be arsed.

 

How did we actually win 3 games?

Edited 23 September, 2023 by BotleySaint

[Dragon_man]

On a positive note, it will be an exciting end to the season. Whether we avoid the drop or not.

[davefizzy14]

I'm so angry right now. Never ever should we be losing to a bottom of the table side.
