SaintNewForest Posted 9 December, 2024 Posted 9 December, 2024 There's a difference between criticising Jack Stephens for his stupid hair pull, which is valid, and messaging him abuse, telling him hes a cunt, get out of our club etc, that's where it draws the line. On Martin, let's be honest, he's not going anywhere is he? 2

Roo1976 Posted 9 December, 2024 Posted 9 December, 2024 Well according to the papers Graham Potter is in line for a shock call from RB Leipzig. Potter is keen on a return to work and the Bundesliga giants may come for him soon if results fail to improve under Marco Rose. Agent talk or are we stuck with the suicidal tactics OUR manager insists on. Options are running out if we are indeed looking for a replacement or were sticking . Most pundits in every commentary speak out at the mistakes we constantly keep performing,our forwards have no chance of making clever runs to find space because we keep the ball too deep and we play awful WALKING FOOTBALL. When we do break at a quicker tempo i think yes go for it ,only to somehow loose momentum and end up going backwards.Depressing being us ATM........................................................................................ BTW IS HE STILL HERE?............................... 1

Yes let’s leave it another week in the hope that the unrecoverable will be recoverable, because that always solves the problem doesn’t it. Really is just laughable. This lot will do anything to prioritise a 1% chance that they can save their own reputation, over and above the best for the football club itself and results on the pitch. 4

Tend not to post something unless it’s on good authority and from someone I trust, who has been right in the past. No point coming on here to get hopes up or down if it’s false information. Was relayed late last night from the same contact I spoke to in the summer RE: a defensive midfielder coming in - which turned out to be the Chelsea lad. This is the first I’ve heard from them about the future of RM, so figured I would share. 12

Gloucester Saint Posted 9 December, 2024 Posted 9 December, 2024 (edited) I’m not surprised, there’s a lot of smoke without there being some kind of fire around his departure. Not just rumours in here but the board meeting during the Chelsea game and his own behaviour post-match. He won’t change his approach for anyone though at SFC and therefore if the objective is win/draw the Spurs game, that won’t happen, even with rotten form they are in. He’d rather die on the hill of a million 5 yard passes between his defenders and keeper. Edited 9 December, 2024 by Gloucester Saint
