How are the crowd?


I'm sat in subway with Mini Lincoln before the drive home. The atmosphere turned but nowhere near as toxic as I thought it'd be. The fans just looked deflated, like they knew it was coming. Anti Jones songs were sung but with so little time left there wasn't much in it.

A good first half completely undone by negative tactics in the second. If this doesn't underline to the board what an appalling call they made appointing Jones I don't know what will. We're down, absolutely no one will save us now, and it's totally totally deserved. Jones should be sacked just because he's ****ing ****, not because it would save us. This is 100% the fault of SR. ****s.
 
This from BBC Sport


Lopetegui and Jones were appointed to their respective positions within the same week in November, but their two situations could not be more different three months later.

While former Real Madrid manager Lopetegui has more than doubled Wolves' points tally after seven Premier League games in charge, rock-bottom Southampton have now lost seven of eight under Jones.
 
We are absolutely relegated now, I cannot see a way back from this.

It’s a shame in a way because Sulemana and Alcaraz look like we have finally found the spark we have needed for so long and no doubt will be off in the Summer.
 
Nah this is pretty much all on Jones. Playing 3 CB's (well 2 plus AMN) against 10 men is an absolute disgrace. I said at HT take AMN off and put Edozie on and have pace on both sides with Paul in the middle. And then he waits too long to make changes. And then we end up with no natural full back on the pitch. Che looked like he didn't have a clue what he was supposed to do when he came on. We were still lumping balls up there that Che had no chance of getting. Jones is awful.
I don’t think AMN was bad as a CB but once they went down to 10 men Napoleon should have moved AMN into midfield and pressed the **** out of Wolves, instead of giving them all the time and space they needed to control the ball and build attacks.
 
Here come the excuses. Twat.

"We were everything I wanted us to be". Heavens.

The great thing about today is that I only saw half an hour of the game and I'm off now to dance the night away.

Take your happiness where you can find it.

Gee.. if only we had an extra player and someone who could MANAGE the situation.

No it shouldn’t be like that Nathan, maybe take a good long think on the way back to Wales as to why that happened.

I knew he was weird, I didn’t realise he was a p***y, what manager gets scared at getting an advantage?!

Exactly
 
So the ‘positive’ today is also my biggest frustration.

Sulemana and Alcaraz look like we have finally found the spark we have been missing for so long…. And no doubt they will be gone in the summer because we are going down.

Almost like salt in the wound.

Sack Jones now and get a competent manager and I still think we have a shot. Paul is a read handful and Sulemana is seriously rapid as well as talented. But Jones HAS to go NOW to give us a chance.
