I remember many were slagging off RM before he arrived and look what happened , he got us promoted. It’s the saints way.
We’re not in a position to demand really good proven managers we’re already down we’re not a big attraction at the moment
I’m actually quite relaxed about it all. Last season following saints around the country was very enjoyable so I’m not bothered about relegation. This new manager sounds a right nutter and I’m looking forward to it. Some of our players may have a new lease of life under him who knows.
His record wasn’t actually that bad with Roma P12 W 4 D 3 L 5 but he got the sack. Maybe he punched a few too many 😂.
As we walked out the ground after the Spurs game my son said he wouldn’t be surprised if we went for Corberan of West Brom or Carrick of Middlesbrough.
Both managers doing well with no money as is Danny Röhl of course.
I thought the Northam were decent last night. Good to hear the ‘Martin out’ chants and the guy I mentioned who was shot down before the game by happy clappers managed to get his banner in.
I was trying to get the ‘Martin out ‘ singing going in the Itchen corner, some joined in but we have so many wet lettuce supporters.
Sadly there is an element of truth in this . There is a guy on one social media platform who is bringing a banner in to protest and he’s being shot down in flames by many.
I know some say that those days were bad because of the hooliganism but I’d have them back any day of the week for many reasons . I didn’t have anything to do with organising the protests against Branfoot but I remember getting involved in the chanting and protests in the stands. There were banners against Branfoot, I suspect it was Nick and Clive who organised it. sadly I can’t see this happening today with our younger element today.
Football just meant so much more to fans in those days ,there were more songs and more fans joined in which created better atmospheres due to standing and stadiums (not bowls )with ends which had roofs which were low down and close to the fans. Everyone seemed more up for it.
The main difference is you knew you could compete with anyone in those days and turn the big boys over and we often did. Nowadays you know you haven’t much of a chance with the money flying about to enable the bigger clubs to buy whoever they want. Football has become too predictable and tedious.
The board will take notice if they see people protesting against the manager whilst at the moment they are being given an easy ride there’s a few boos at the end and that’s it everyone goes home and then next game sing a bit but not much and then go home again.
We’re all hurting grumps but many of us are in our 60’s even older, been there done that so to speak. The modern football fans today just aren’t that bothered, it’s so different from the 70’s and 80’s. Many Fans today just want to take photos and sit in silence.
Why aren’t the younger ones doing something now ffs .Too bloody nice down here that’s the problem. Many other clubs fans would have got this arrogant idiot ousted by now.
It was for convenience tbh. Our hotel was 100 yards from the train station and spoons just down the road . I’ve had a few in the Laines before and I did suggest to go there but others wanted to stay put.
