Us ivory tower brigade still have doubts, like all fans David, but unlike some we don’t slag off a manager who in one season changed the way we played, rebuilt the squad and team and got us promoted. We wait a little longer than 3 games and we hope for the best. I wonder who you think should and would replace him. You seem a half glass empty kind of fella. |

Woolston - I was wondering what joy, if any, you get from being a Saints’ fan. I Took a look at your past posts - they are scathing. You have called the team, useless, Shiite, garbage throughout the seasons… I know this is an opinion based forum and everyone has a right to sound off, and the fans have certainly been put through the mill over the years, but you seem to hate the team, even when they’re doing relatively well. So I’m genuine interested in what pleasure you get from supporting saints? |

OK Colbert, I’ll bite… my evidence for his racism is simple, he has chosen to represent a political party that is racist to its core? If you want examples of their lies and bigotry I’m happy to do so. I suspect you’re cut from that same cloth as Rupert, politically speaking. Feel free to sue. |

It’s good to here from positive supporters - there are many saints fans who back what Downes has said and you make some excellent points. Do many of us have unrealistic expectations? Most fans would be happy with 7 from 9 points. |

There were certain fans calling for Martin’s removal after our first loss! Who on earth do they think will be attracted to a club that, like Watford, gets rid of their manager after a few months. I’m as disappointed as the next fan by our recent showing, but I believe a manager needs to be given a season at least to build a team. There’s only one thing worse than poor results and that’s a large vocal section of our fans who gripe and moan and imagine that there’s a magic bullet out there. They’ve forgotten what the word ‘supporter’ means. Reading their constant bulge drives me to despair. |

Watching saints is painful at the moment but sacking the manager after a few months in charge is pushing the panic button way too early. Plus what message does it give to future potential managers - if you don’t turn it around in a very short time you are gone; it’s not an appealing proposition. We’re becoming like Watford, no stability, no plan, no future. Managers have to be given time to instill their philosophy. |

Marsch and Gerard would be disastrous. To appoint a manager who was on the brink of taking Leeds down - madness. Gerard did well in the Mickey Mouse league but was useless as villa’s boss would be equally insane. |

Ian wright has a real go at NJ in the papers and tells him to stop throwing players under the bus BUT deal with any problems within the club - not by airing his dirty linen in public. Whatever the outcome of all of this - he’s either going to win the players over or (more likely imo) put their backs up, he has to learn discretion and the basics of PR. He’s dripping blood at the moment and it’s doing him no favours at all |
![](/images/avatars/0.gif) | News Comment | Saints Said To Have Agreed Terms For Striker at 12:22:20
Watch a few YouTube’s. This guy is not what we need at all! His stats are poor, his goal scoring record is meager and his final ball is as woeful as Djenepo’s. On top of this the papers are suggesting that saints are willing to offload Che - to a relegation rival! This is all crazy. Why is it that every saints’ fan knows that we need a out and out striker, but the club’s managers and owners remain clueless! Unfathomable. If buying this guy is our last roll of the dice, we’re heading for the championship and at some speed. |

Completely agree with JGH. The comment from permanent ray of sunshine halftimeorange sums up the awful negativity that Redmond’s faced. For me he’s more often than not been our most exciting player. I wish him well. |

Wrath - you seem awfully ANGRY dude. Chill a little, let the season get UNDERWAY before you BLOW A GASKET, or consider supporting the ones in blue DOWN the road. Is this why you call yourself WRATH? It’s like listening to an old timey fire and brimstone preacher |

I really try to be positive despite Saints making it a difficult thing to maintain, but I have to say that the defending last night was truly awful. Mahrez is good but our central defenders made him look like Messi. Despite having two to three of our defenders in front of him when he went for goal he was able to almost casually pass the ball into the net. McCarthy never got close to stopping his shots. McCarthy does not inspire trust. He is not a commanding presence and our defenders always appear to be trying to protect him - this isn't the case with FF. |
