| Forum Reply | A better performance at 21:14 30 Nov 2024
The players are giving their all. I dont think they come across as not trying. They just arnt particularly good. We don't have any match winners or major quality, so it's such a struggle. Most fans recognise that. We do need to adapt the style of play, and it looks like we are doing that. We have had two good performances. We have had some terrible decisions go against us. It must be such a punch in the stomach, when perfectly good goals keep being ruled out by the pathetic VAR. I don't see any signs of fans starting Martin out chants at the games or any signs of discontent in the stadium. The players are trying. It's just going against us at the moment.

Yep, cheating cvnts. The PL is fixed and rigged. In our last away game, we equalised at Wolves and the same cvunts disallowed a perfectly good goal too. Can you blame our players for being thoroughly p!ssed off and feeing like giving up? [Post edited 29 Nov 21:50]

The Premier League is a horrible league. VAR has completely ruined the game of football. |

Last season wasn't boring. This season is. It's boring losing every game. It's boring not being able to celebrate goals because of VAR. It's boring when perfectly good goals are ruled out because of VAR. It's boring having nothing to play for with the same teams taking all of the glory. It's boring knowing what the outcome of the game will be before it even kicks off. Last year was a lot more entertaining and unpredictable than the boring premier league. |

Who wants to see us get thrashed? We watch us lose every week. Nobody wants another defeat to witness. It's no surprise so many tickets are left. And nobody wants to see that lot celebrating another win. It's boring boring boring. |

This is spot on in my opinion. Although I would just go as far as to say, every team needs at least three really quality players to survive. You need (an Ings in his day, a Le Tissier, a Lambert, a Pelle, a Tadic, Van D!ck). You need match winners. Even Ward-prowse scored winning free kicks. We just don't have anyone who can put one in from 30 yards or put one in at all! We don't have any real quality. We again did exactly as what we did the last time we were relgated. We have bought a load of championship players and not one is premier league quality (Ramsdale aside). Not one is a world class experienced match winner. Why didn't we just save the 100 million plus we have spent on ten players and just buy three amazing players instead? I know why, because we won't pay the wages that come with it. I will say again, the same thing I said when we were relegated, is that this club won't get anywhere until these owners are removed. Protest, don't buy tickets, sing sack the board, make the place toxic and get them out. But all we will do.is just keep asking for a change of manager with the same sh!t squad and unambitious owners.

It's not a big game. We will get destroyed. What fan wants to see their team thrashed? Expecially against that lot. I can't stand seeing and hearing them all celebrate so I won't be paying £30 to witness it. [Post edited 14 Nov 18:57]

And the Premier League is utter sh!t. A bunch of over paid robots trying to play subuteo on a beautiful pitch with VAR watching and scrutinising every move. It's not football anymore. Such a simple game. The team who scores the most goals wins. Go back 20 to 30 years and teams just wanted to.win and score goals. It's far too over coached and scripted nowadays.

I agree but they know they won't get anybody better unless they pay a lot of money and that somebody better probably wouldn't come. And 20 million pounds later, we might still go down. We probably will, it would take a miracle to stay up now with the fixtures we have coming up. |
| Forum Reply | Sources Say Southampton Have Made Decision About Russell Martin at 18:26 13 Nov 2024
Won't work. I received an email today to say that as a ST holder I can get up to 4 additional tickets. Plenty will have friends wanting tickets, Saints and Liverpool fans. Tourists will fill the ground if necessary. Tickets will appear online. And as I have said before, there is no appetite to get rid of RM. It would cost 20 million plus to sack him and employ a new one. And they wouldn't want to pay for a decent one, who demands top dollar. The owners are the issue here, always have been. They arnt ambitious, they are taking us down again. The manager is the side show. [Post edited 13 Nov 18:27]

| Forum Reply | Reports that Martin has been sacked! at 20:30 10 Nov 2024
Odds on him being sacked have been frozen. The odds at the bookies have changed dramatically in one day. Maybe because we lost a big game yesterday? There was one twitter post, saying he had been sacked, then a lot of bets starting happening. However, is there something the bookies know that we don't? Is it just rumours that have caused a lot of bets? I can't see any other reports anywhere. [Post edited 10 Nov 20:33]

Totally agree with this. The manager is a side show. Managers come and go, players come and go. But these owners and board have created a sh!t show. They came in, and appointed two terrible manager after Ralph and we went down. We came back up last season, yes but now we are going down again. We haven't invested in the players we need to survive. There isn't any ambition. There isn't any desire to give is a progressive, decent team. I have wanted them out for a long time. Sack the board. |
| Forum Reply | VAR at 10:32 10 Nov 2024
Our poor results is another discussion but those decisions yesterday are a disgrace. All three pundits on MOTD agreed. Our goal should have stood. At 1-1, their fans on their back, it's a different game. We were poor yesterday yes, but also cheated. Their second goal was also a fould on our player and VAR didn't intervene! So they intervene for a non foul, and don't intervene for a foul. Utter disgrace. So basically, the correct decison on the pitch is turned into the WRONG decision by VAR. And the wrong decision on the pitch is not turned into the right decison by VAR. So it's pure CHEATING right? Hate VAR, hate the Premier League. |

We'll be relegated anyway. Liverpool, Brighton, Chelsea, Villa, Spurs next, we won't be getting any points at all, regardless. Those are some of the best sides in the league. No manager in his right mind would come in with those fixtures and a likely relegation on his cv. [Post edited 9 Nov 20:09]

I also cannot stand watching Liverpool. I can't stand being around plastics from Dorset. I can't stand witnessing stewards do nothing as plastics walk in with Liverpool shirts on. I can't stand then being beaten by them, which is the likely outcome. It's just before Christmas. I don't actually think £30 is too bad for a quarter final. But I hate watching Liverpool. Hate seeing them celebrate they are so arrogant and in your face. Can't stand them. [Post edited 8 Nov 21:43]

It will be interesting to see what happens with the wars, now Trump has been elected. The wars currently happening, weren't happening when he was last in the Whitehouse. I think it will be interesting watching from afar personally. |
| Forum Reply | US Election at 18:33 6 Nov 2024
I'm no Trump fan, but why has he been elected back in? He talks about America first. His country takes precedence over anything else. Many Americans like that. Russia didn't invade Ukraine during his presidency. North Korea was kept under control. The war in Israel hadn't escalated until Trump had left office. Some.Americans being interviewed stated how they couldnt imagine Harris in a room with Putin telling him what to do and him listening. But Trump would be listened to. He would push the button. The world is wary of him. And people have their own minds. However he is portrayed, some people like him in America. The American gun owners, living in a free America, where people aren't dictated to by the state, goes down well in some quarters. [Post edited 6 Nov 18:35]

| Forum Reply | Fernandes at 21:03 2 Nov 2024
Ramsdale was excellent today and made some crucial saves. He looked so commanding and confident today. Fernandes is a brilliant little player. He goes forward with speed, tenacity and skill. He is going to be some player. Bednerak was also excellent today I thought. We struggled up front, it is such a struggle to score, but good old Adam Armstrong can always be relied on in big games. We were more compact today and it definitely helped defensively. We were very cautious, but really pushed in the final quarter and got the goal. Great win. Another big game next week.
