Martin has repeatedly said he does not believe in a plan b. Just a better plan a.

Which should lead to 5 half time subs, and everyone with a kick up the rear, after that 45. 🙂

Hull have been a far better version of us. Play out from the back, beat the press with ease, expose huge gaps, create chances.

We can get back in the game. Needs a massive improvement from everyone though.

Rothwell Smallbone Stu terrible dynamic in midfield. Pedestrian, Rothwell turns like a fucking container ship. 
As for Manning, every time he cuts back they’re all over our CBs denying a pass out. Manning too thick to work it out. Useless. 

I’m prepared to suggest that Manning is amongst the worst 1 left backs that I’ve ever seen play for us.

Perhaps now people will start realising that Saints aren't going up automatically. 

Don't think anyone on here truly believed we were

Certainly gives Danny Fox a run for his money!

🤣 I started the crusade in 1958!

I was only two months old when the Munich air disaster happened so 58 was bit early for me. Ironically and prophetically my first game was in October 63 when we lost 4-1 to Leeds at The Dell who went on to get promoted with Sunderland. it was the embryonic Revie team.

Seething that he didn’t change that midfield when the whole fucking world could see it needed changing. Baffling.

I’m seething he started with that non existent midfield. So bloody obvious.

Well wide from Smallbone. But at last some decent passing to give the space for the shot.

Before that, we had 3 in the box. Edozie still tries to take on his man.

That's my issue with the lad. Rarely plays with his head up. Skills are like trebles in darts, and the final ball is the double. That lad is all trebles.

I thought, when he came back we'd seen at least some of that replaced with better decision making. But reverting to what he likes best tonight, even when there is some support/ people waiting in the box.

Should have started. 

Form the comments, it looks as though a lot of us looked at that midfield and realised there was no physical presence, capability of control in the side. Now we have Adams and Aribo on there, but needlessly chasing the game.

great tracking back Brooks. Not somethign he has done since he got here. Good sign.  Need others to follow his lead now.

That's because RM is arrogant in thinking his tactics will always prevail, really good when it works, dire when it doesn't,  doesn't help he's a bit blind in keeping squad happy
