Targett was superb until he went off :/

All the Academy lads (plus Bedders, Vester and Oriol) are benefitting from time on the pitch and they are clearly becoming better through being coached properly and used in the correct way. Jack was good today and JWP always plays well when Pierre is also on the pitch.
 
minutes ffs... where did that come from.

Yep very strange. Didn’t think he had a very good performance overall but the time at the end was baffling. 4mins ok. Long stopped play for 1.5mins but we played 6.5mins. I certainly didn’t see any additional time wasting & actually we were shouting at Alex to take a yellow!

Think I am beginning to eat my words regarding JWP's value.

What has happened in recent weeks beggars the question why the side were allowed to drift for two and a half years with a series poor managerial appointments? Answers on the postcard to Ralph Kruger..

Not sure the blame falls on Kruger. Les Reed was responsible for the football.

And tbf, the vast majority of supporters (on here at least) were all begging Saints to sign Hughes and when we did, people were happy. So it was easy for Gao being new to football and the club to just go with what his football director was telling him and what the fans wanted as well.
