    My first is in tragic
    And also in clueless
    He’s so f***ing awful
    I’d prefer Tony Pulis

    My second’s the letter that will be next to our name
    If he’s left in charge of the rest of our games
    My third is in Janny and also Peraud
    He seems to like answering questions in code

    My last is in Preston , QPR and Blackpool
    Which is where we’ll be going with this utter tool
    So please SR and Nathan, it’s time to see sense
    We’re s**t in attack and we’re worse in defence

    I’m so glad we didn’t get Dyche. Watching that boring crap week in week out. And only beating Arsenal by 1 goal.

    He’s 11/2 on sky bet to be the next to go if anyone is interested

    Still fuming. I love our club, and this soap opera is painful.

    Be very surprised if we sack him before we are relegated or we are really cut adrift

    With Ralph it felt vindictive wanting him out. I liked the guy, but thought it was madness we kept him for so long when it wasn’t working.

    With Jones, nobody seems to like him and it’s quite easy to want him out. We shouldn’t feel this about our manager.

    Saw this on YouTube thinking it was today’s game, but it’s when he was manager at Luton.

    Surely he’s gone. Surely. (Jones that is).

    No issues with Moussa doing Djenep-overs against a bunch of 17 year olds. It’s the DCC thing which is just bollocks.

    Because Alex Crook is better in a back 5 and NJ wanted to show his flexible, systems dont win games approach by starting with a flat 4 today. He thinks Crooks would be far too exposed for the gobshite he is in that system.

    Great man management by our Nathan doing this, didnt want any toxic vibes from Crook on the bench - Im starting to warm to him, has something about him.

    Because Jones is more of a Serbia kinda guy.

    I do wonder if having the experience that they have and being newer to Saints, I wonder if they’ve stood up to Jones and he is punishing them. No evidence for this, just a theory.

    DCC should be one of the CBs whether we play in a 2 or 3 for his experience and calmness alone. Orsic hasn’t hit the ground running but I’d still be starting him over Ely, and at the very least he should have been on the bench today. He has experience and has a goal threat at the very least. He scored in the WC 3rd place play off not long ago, he’s definitely good enough for us.
