Has he actually apologised for the debacle on Saturday and taken responsibility for it with that abominable selection and tactics |  | | |  |

Well it ain’t, as many on here and the saintswebb we’re debating who should/shouldn’t be playing in all the other positions outside of Mara’s, as yeah Che should’ve played over him all day long, but for midfield and wingers basically everyone else was up for debate which is exactly why many have argued over it.
And defensively, for who was available that was always gonna be the defence we played, although hopefully that can change with players becoming available. |
Charles could have played Centre Back alongside Bednarek, but he was preferred on the bench alongside Adams. |  |
| We thought that we had the answers,
It was the questions we had wrong. |

There are several players who are liabilities and they really shouldn't be allowed to play for Saints again if we want to get promoted. That includes our goalkeepers as well as some of the players signed in the last 2 transfer windows. Of course, they will play. Recruitment of both players and managers has been especially bad in the last two years. That's more because of the stupidity epitomised by Ankersen's 'embrace failure' philosophy than because of the amount of money spent. [Post edited 5 Sep 2023 10:05]

Yes but we’ve only really played Charles there when we’ve not had enough centre half’s available, which wasn’t the case in Sunday , and RM can hardly be criticised for playing Holgate, as many wanted to see him play, and I don’t think anyone could’ve predicted him playing as poor as he did. As there was basically nobody complaining about the defence when that team sheet came out, as yeah some weren’t happy with Manning and Bazunu but for what we’ve got it kinda removed any arguments.
And then for midfield and ho front, yeah I don’t disagree that Charles should’ve played, but at the same time many said Smallbone and Downes should’ve, and other than the Mara for Che swap, not everyone was in agreement for who should be starting |  |

I would have gone with the following:
Saint22
Dirk... I_would... Cocklebreath... Dorset Ian
sledger... saints_fan_73... GRIM... Londonsaint76
saint901... saintwizzler
There's no way the team above would have fared any worse than RM's sh1t-show did on the day. It was embarrassing & humiliating in equal measure.
* Pat; you're responsible for the HT oranges for the guys and Grumps; you're rubbing the liniment oil on aching legs. |  |

And am I the ref that sends I_would off for foul and abusive language within the first 15 minutes? | |

In my playing days I was initially a left wing and then then back (often not as far back as some of my team mates would have preferred).
Can I switch sides please? | | | |

Unfortunately not mate. In keeping with recent Saints tradition, the vast majority will have to play out of positions they're comfortable with. | |

I’m a better keeper than 22, easily. | | | |

You're definitely a better keeper than McCarthy... and that's without ever seeing you play! | |

Yeah, sorry Heisenberg. The scouting reports on you came back as "flatters to deceive" and "never puts in a shift. Can't be arsed".
Up your game pal. | |

‘The appointment of RM is a gamble’. It’s not a gamble at all. He can’t set up a team that defends. It doesn’t matter which players we have and if we have a world class keeper if we leave Edozie has as the only man back when we have a corner. Or leave your back four unprotected all the time. I keep saying it and happy to be proven wrong but we have absolutely no chance of going up if we continue conceding like we do. And it’s Martins responsibility to sort it. We should have appointed an experienced manager who has been there and done it. With our squad we would not be conceding like we do. |
I totally agree with the experienced manager comment. While he may come with a health warning, I wonder if SR ever considered Scott Parker before gambling on RM...? [Post edited 5 Sep 2023 16:33]

Left centre back? I am left footed but in my hey day I was a flying winger and later a classy play making centre mid, retired by 15. |  |
