I wouldn't know whether you sit in the dugout or Directors Box but if it's another loss today can you let us know if RM is clapped down the tunnel again like after the Leicester defeat?

CB Fry Posted November 2 Share Posted November 2 19 minutes ago, Fabrice29 said: Yeah you’ve said that twice now. Well done. And just for clarity, I’ll laugh at those who have been and will continue to be so definitive in their views on RM being a terrible appointment. And if we don’t win, I’ll continue to laugh at them. Thanks for confirming that if we win tonight your "it's not really about the manager" routine will take a back seat and would you believe it, it is thanks to the manager after all. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Again, not what I said. Win or lose today it doesn’t define his tenure or his ability as a manager and win or lose I’ll probably still think the players will have played some part. Radical, I know. 2 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We give it away and they go score. I can see a comfortable 0-2 loss. Man City want to play perfect football and score perfect goals. Everton will just get stuck in and win ugly and easily. Won’t give us the space that City did. We won’t be ‘brave’ and Everton won’t allow any ‘process’ nonsense. Goals win games, we won’t get any. Agree, I'd have Dyche in a heartbeat. He makes RM look like a schoolboy. He will tell them to press high and let our kamikaze defending do the rest. 3-1 to them. 6 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gio1saints Posted November 2 Share Posted November 2 34 minutes ago, Fabrice29 said: Except I didn’t say it has nothing to do with him either way did I? I made the point because some people seem so emotionally invested in him that every good or bad result will ultimately be a judgement on him. It’s extreme and probably part of an unhealthy English football culture ultimately but your responses just seem to highlight the extreme nature of it all, it can only be all his fault or nothing to do with him. Nobody seems capable of actually finding or even exploring the nuanced truth in the middle. @Fabrice29 was going to DM you this but fuck it can’t be bothered, I’ve got a big match to deal with this afternoon. And Anyhow - please don’t spoil there fun game of telling everyone how much they hate RM ~ and in so many fun and cringeworthy ways too. They are and continue to be so inventive about it. Ive even noted that there’s a feeling that even IF we win today ( some chance with that legohead in charge!!) that it will be despite RM. Haha that’s a nice touch- good one! FWIW - Even if we score from a long throw and TP nods it in it will be despite RM and even if Tyler and Fernandez who are starting every important match, are playing it’s despite RM as he knows nothing about football. Oh, and if you or I should say “ but don’t you think this pantomime Villanisation of RM is a bit OTT - he doesn’t actually get onto the pitch, you know, to kick the ball around, and politely may I add for the most part, they will come on here and say, and I paraphrase “ Anger anger anger previously aimed at RM now full square on another Saints fan for suggesting that we may be able to look at this in another way. Oh NO, NO, No, NO this is not how the narrative rolls out —-frustrated anger is now to be aimed full square at anyone does not fully agree - so this means they automatically are a “ fuck shit crap wank cunt Lucy, Martin, martins mum, SR employee, cretin, fanboy, troll, mental, stupid, idiotic, apologist for the indefensible idiot etc etc etc “ 🤭. Of course we are. And so very inventive all the ways to abuse another saints fan. That we ALL are all of those things - and none of them at the same time is neither here nor there, 😂, but as a student of human psychology it’s telling that NUANCE is totally absent as you comment - that there can only be two sides - like in a football match - in this debate strikes me as rather apt. The passion the RM haters display - and their hatred of the “ opposition” is exactly the same as if you go to a derby match. These posters willingly would get out there fathers gun and shoot people like you and I- at a match - and on this forum - despite fact we are Saints fans through and through. Why?

Just insane levels of obsession on here. This is because it’s absolutely insane to be going into a huge six pointer with an absolute muppet in charge.

Edmonton Saint Posted November 2 Share Posted November 2 Fail to win today and it’s has to be curtains for Martin. People are saying could another manager get more from this squad, I’d say definitely. We’ve contributed to our downfall numerous times this season due to the system which is a reflection on Martin’s ideology . Off the top of my head :- Newcastle away trying to get McCarthy to play it out from the back, not having an assigned penalty taker against Man U, not having anyone at the edge of the box , Ipswich and Leicester .. I think a semi competent manager could at least get us organized and stop us conceding so many goals from set pieces 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Midfield_General Posted November 2 Share Posted November 2 (edited) Prediction - we'll come flying out of the traps, catch them cold, play some decent stuff and go in at half-time 1-0 or 2-0 up and looking comfortable. They'll change something at half-time, we won't react to it, it'll go to 1-2 and we'll start to wobble. We'll make substitutions that make us worse, it'll go to 2-2. We'll go to panic stations, fall to bits completely and either hang on for a desperate point or lose it in the 5th minute of injury time. Probably by not marking properly for a corner.
