If and when we get a new manager is there any chance that we could please play our best players in their right positions it is unbelievable that KWP AND BELKA KOTCHER can't find a place in our team whatever differences they have with the manager must be put aside for the good of the team

No excuses RM had most of pre-season to formulate his strongest x1 (and obviously still doesn’t know today) .Perhaps he was also blindsided by persistently shoe-horning Stephens in the starting line up.Anyway perhaps Russell will engage Jack to carry his bags to a new destination! Keep On Marching!

I Can't believe that any Manager worth his salt would have sent that team out tonight , to try and win a Derby game with no strikers is beyond belief, and yo compound this we end up with 3 so called strikers on the pitch .you couldn't make this up
24 Dec 2023 17:00:51
Well done and another win the only downside this week is the Ross Stewart situation, I just hope that we don't buy another striker in a panic, one I would quite like is Baily Cadamatari who is a young lad but shows a lot of potential
30 Nov 2023 09:00:40
Where was Ross Stewart tonight not even on the bench, have we bought another dud and if so do we go again in the transfer window, as for the game our lack of a second goal left us vulnerable as previously, whilst our league position is good it could be so much better if we had won games rather than draw ie Rotherham and Huddersfield, if we do go again in the window who will leave to make room in the squad

Let's give Russell Martin a chance, at this stage it is unclear what players will be coming and going I feel that we need a real leader to replace JWP who despite being a good player was not the leader from the front that we need also can anyone shed any light on Saluso position as he seemed to have disappeared last season
1.) 10 Jul 2023 16:31:00
I believe it was because of his attitude. I could be wrong don't shoot me

One look at Salisu's social media will tell you that he has become the Insta man . posing in bling . posing in very expensive outfits . posing full stop . I also know that his social life became even more important than football, arriving home from partying in london at about 7am on a Saturday morning . yes we were playing that day! And he was sluggish and rubbish!
It’s like Obefemi (spelling) huge problems with his discipline . including staying out in southampton way beyond the times he was supposed to be, being late often .
Southampton are excellent at looking after the personal development of young players .
Starting with a ‘foster’ family, sometimes with another player there.
Once they had shown discipline, respect .! including cleanliness, time keeping . they are allowed to move in with other players, mostly close to or near the training ground .
Then the next stage is to be able to move to (often) ocean village, where they can live alone or with other player.
guess what … even when Obefemi was in the first team, he still lived with a family! Says it all .
Go check out lyanco social media .
Family . football . god!
No bling ., no rubbish .

Further to recent reports I truly hope that SFC have learned from their recent transfer market catastrophes.Now with significant funds expected from Player exits plus the Leagues parachute payment Saints have ONE MASSIVE OPPORTUNITY to acquire TOP QUALITY PLAYERS and (OVERLOOK VERY ORDINARY BENCH WARMERS) in OUR quest to assemble a team capable of shaking up the Championship and potentially Premiership capable.With some good Players retained plus a host of YOUNG PRODIGIES champing at the bit I am convinced. that a squad filled with a far. better attitude and effort than last season combined with improved Coaching under the stewardship of Russell Martin the SFC future could be bright indeed.

Apologies-Iwas showing my admiration and support for Saints Football Legend Matt Letissier-man.
{Ed001's Note - not a problem but it is just not the right thread for it. It is a completely separate topic. And it is too fractious a topic to really be able to just meld in together without causing issues. It really needs its own thread.}

In retrospect I agree with you.

I have watched the game tonight both live and then on tv, I also listened to RM on the radio, this man is deluded we have so many weaknesses in the team and make actions that lead to disaster time after time but according to RM we played well and troubled Chelsea on several occasions, my view was that Chelsea were totally in control and could/ should have scored many more goals, as for our so called captains sending off I have never seen anything like it in over 60 years of following the saints, surely now the powers that be must act to end this man's delusional reign over out great club, he now rates with Branfoot as our worst ever manager
1.) 05 Dec 2024 10:35:36
Any update this morning from anyone in the know regarding board meeting taking place? 2408 is Martin gone yet? Better hurry as think WH abd Wolves maybe sacking also today
2.) 06 Dec 2024 21:45:34
Unfortunately there is no change. Sports Republic seem to favour giving RM at least until the end of the season and will probably trust him to get Saints promoted 25/26 season. For me, this is a foolish plan. A head coach/ Manager has to have numerous tactical variations to be successful in the premier league. The sale and purchase of numerous players every 12 months is going to make choosing a settled team for more than 20/30 games very difficult.
The best teams year in year out don’t make more than 3/4 changes to personnel every 12 months.
09 Nov 2024 18:04:32
Martin out now get Robbins in at least he has the knowledge to read a game and change if he needs too
13 Sep 2024 10:43:29
Could Saturday game be a battle to not be sacked for both managers whilst I always want the saints to win it Could be a blessing in disguise if RM were to go with managers of the proven Premier league status such as Moyes and the ex Brihton /Chelsea gut currently out there

Not a big fan of Lallana coming back, it could be another Theo Walcott situation which cist a lot in wages for very little return
1.) 17 Jun 2024 03:03:44
Although I was initially disappointed at a possible Adam Lallana return, in retrospect with his undoubted skill and experience he could be a very shrewd signing for the squad and likewise Ghoddo from Brentford (with both on a free) With 2 quality c/b’s ( an upgrade on Bednarek) plus keeper full backs, DOWNES, quality Mids and Strikers (top grade), Russell Martin seems to be cautiously building a strong team/squad - exciting times ahead! ( Hopefully)!
2.) 18 Jun 2024 06:38:32
So you basically think SR are going to fund a complete new team. On Lallana he could prove to be a good backup to Downes, if we manage to sign him.
3.) 18 Jun 2024 09:26:01
I would rather 4-5 experienced players on a loan/free and 4-5 key signings at 15 to 25m, rather than 10 unproven at 8m
We need players who can hit the ground running and do not need time to adjust like Mara, Edozie, Orsic, Charles.
Also looking at Romania and Slovakia's big wins yesterday, players with team spirit, fight and heart
27 May 2024 12:41:23
Great day out yesterday but the job now starts to assemble a team for next season, priorities include a new goalkeeper , signing the loanees that we want to keep and getting all this done sooner rather than later, too many seasons we start off slowly and this time we need to be on top form from day 1

I agree with south hants Rich although I think we could have used five subs with it being a cup game,l wish we had started with Che Adams instead of Adam Armstrong,not sure about Broja he seems to have lost his spark at the moment, happens a lot with young players who start to believe all the publicity around them
30 Nov 2020 21:04:04
Totalling agree Hopi back to winning ways next week, also a good looking cup draw it would be great to have a decent cup run this season.
20 Dec 2019 16:56:46
According to the press Josh Sims is back and training with the saints not sure however if he is in our premiership squad, could be an option if he is.
