Saints look ok when moving the ball forward quickly. Should be 2-3.

And have all season. See Everton winner, second half on Friday night. Pity that doesn’t fit with the charlatan of a managers ‘philosophy’.

Worse than Jones, Pellegrino and Branfoot put together.

Fans finally taking the piss with the "oles" and chanting "we've got the ball" while we pass it around pointlessly.

I mean, fair play. Do him and his coaching team take us for absolute mugs or wet-behind-the-ears pricks?

We've, in recent history, seen our club get to League Cup Finals, European football, beat all the 'big clubs' on a regular basis.

He can't expect anything more than he's getting if our fans are offering up some discontent.

He is very, very, very lucky they haven’t turned before now. But once you lose the bulk of our fans, they ain’t coming back.

We've been utter shit again, but some of the attacking play has been a marked improvement from recent weeks. So there's that.

Shame it counts for sod all

Playing against the managers approach. This season was likely to be unsuccessful but it’s a never had a chance. Sacrificed at the monumental ego and incompetence of Russell Martin and Rasmus Ankerson.

I reckon the latter rat is preparing to push Russ under the bus tonight, as his sort always do at work.

Turned us into a laughing stock.  Embarrassing 😳 

This.  I don't mind losing, hell I don't mind getting relegated.  But let's at least have a go, we know that Russball doesn't work, so very obviously we need to do things differently. 

But no, we continue to make the same mistakes week in, week out, and stink this league out.

We are going down with embarrassing figures, and there's really no need for it.

Exactly.

Luton went down last season with their heads held high. 

We will do the complete opposite.

Tbf Aribo, Manning, Archer, Fernandes, Wood, KWP have all been pretty good today. 

I think Wood has some ability, get him away from Martin and we will start seeing more of it. Edwards will also be helped by not being smashed to bits by Russell’s mad experiments.

I watched Ralph's team through every minute of the 9-0s and all the other shit fests. I'm not watching the rest of this car crash tonight.

That's a shame because, despite everything, there's been some good individual performances from us tonight, and we've actually looked half decent going forward at times.

I really hope we don't throw money at the team in January trying to keep us in the league. We need to be building for next season. Knowing we'll lose Fernandes, Dibling, Ramsdale, THB and KWP at the very least shows where we need to be investing.

Not that I trust SR to do any of what I just said, let alone successfully. I just don't want to be lumbered with Orsic's, Onuachu's, Sulemana's and Alcaraz's when they'll be no good to us in the Championship.
