Thread | What needs to change
at 08:09 16 Dec 2024
Now SR have finally acted (Wolves was my cut off point - he'd earned some credit in the bank) just changing manager feels a little like chucking deck chairs of a sinking ship.
The SR hierarchy need a restructure. Whoever has overseen managerial recruitment since getting shot of Ralph need to be redeployed if they can't be sacked themselves.
The weak underbelly of the team that's been stinking up the place since Gao, people like Stephens, McCarthy and Bednarek spring to mind. I feel some contract extensions were handed out emotionally rather than with hard evidence after Wembley.
Our forwards, where to begin... none of them good enough (can't pass judgment on Stewart as he's never fit).
I would like to see SR gone, that said, potential owners aren't hanging around like coats on a peg. So we are stuck with them for now. But this lot have not really got much right in their stewardship of us. |

I’ll start the ball rolling
If captain Jack is playing tonight, no way are we losing 5 nil at halftime |

People who may wish they worked for SR
After last nights results...
Pep.
Other potential victims
Gary O'Neil. Has to wait until March before they play us again. That might be too long for him.
Keir Starmer - Wasn't first choice for everyone and had to change the style of play from the last incumbent, but it doesn't seem to be going down well with large sections of the fanbase.

As I was coming down the steps at the end of the game I looked up to see the players walking over to applaud the fans. Ryan Manning however appeared to be shouting “f*ck off” repeatedly towards us.
Did anyone else spot this? Or did I completely imagine it! |

Thread | Liverpool - Cup tickets
at 09:16 14 Nov 2024
Just seen an email from the club saying I had limited time to buy up to 4 extra tickets for the Liverpool game, but that the £30 offer ends soon. I didn’t realise that the £30 was an early offer!
At £30 to watch a largely changed Saints team against a largely changed Liverpool team, this pricing starting point seems absurd. |

Little sign of the club relieving RM of his duties, looks like Solent Toffee is going to get his wish of RM being given the Everton game.

Thread | Pre and post match

Got the train down yesterday as I went to a gig at heartbreakers in the evening.
One thing struck me after some discussion on here re the fanzones and the quality of alcoholic beverages in plastic pint pots.
I went to O’Neils instead of the painted wagon in the hope of avoiding plastic cups, no luck in there and it tasted awful, tried the pool bar next door - same in there, in fact everywhere bar the mayflower after the game were serving drinks in plastic pint pots.
Is there anywhere that uses glasses on match day anymore? Haven’t been to Oxford street since moving my ST. Is it just the top of town that insists on selling drinks in plastic? |

Thread | Potential points deduction

Do I remember correctly but….
Were Leicester due to have a points deduction for breach of FFP rules for a previous premier league season?
Can anyone confirm this or am I imagining this happened? |

It all feels depressingly familiar doesn't it?
Rusty is about 3 seasons behind the "bold and BRAVE" tag line
The football is still dull.
Dull, dull, dull.
I can't work out if we started the season ok as there were;
1; players who were desperately hoping for a move away from the club and were trying to put themselves in the shop window and have now reverted to type, or,
2; Losing that quality late in the window (NT, JWP) is the reason and the replacements are no where near good enough.
If it is the former then I expect this to continue until early December when there will suddenly be an uptick in form from them just before the window re-opens.
I expect another defensive bungle on Saturday to gift Middlesbrough their first win.
Kiss my arse Sports Republic. [Post edited 20 Sep 2023 8:12]

Thread | Annoyingly, it’s still not over
at 18:56 14 May 2023
Yes we are down, but there’s still 2 more games to endure.
I’m guessing changes won’t take place/announcements won’t be made until the final ball has been kicked. Which is going to make the next two games even more unbearable, as there’s no way this shower of sh1t are going to be suddenly pulling rabbits out of a hat or bunches of roses out of their behinds.
How do the club try and salvage anything for the fans with the quality of players we have?
We can’t exactly say play the kids as that’s what we’ve been doing all season.
Can we get Nathan Jones back for the last two games just for a laugh rather than useless Ruben? I’m assuming we are still paying him? |

Thread | Next Season
at 09:26 17 Apr 2023
As we slip meekly into the championship I have started to look at whether or not to renew my ST’s.
I am seriously toying with the idea of doing some foreign games in the Dutch, Spanish and Italian leagues every 6 weeks (long weekends away)
The experience of a day at St Mary’s is akin to going on a works night out with all the people you have to suffer in the work place that you don’t really have much time for. You do it because you need to show your face but know it’s going to be a long night.
The idea of traveling over to Rotterdam Friday night on the over night ferry from Harwich, then back again on the Sunday, is starting to look a lot more appealing than Watford at home with zero atmosphere, probably zero goals and a team full of prospects getting bashed up physically.
I started to think this a few weeks ago and what would the club do to rectify the malaise of fans next season. If they think freezing ticket prices is going to be the answer then I suspect they are in for a shock.
I look at the atmosphere at some of these European leagues and we’ve fallen miles behind them.
