    I'm sad, angry, disappointed but you know what not that bothered anymore.

    It's been coming for most of the season, just hope we learn something from this shambles. Life goes on, bring on the Championship

    Most of the team can **** off but we will still be here. COYR

    It's honestly sad that we're going down in this manner. I just wish I didn't care. It hurts.

    How f*cking bad is Elyounoussi? <laugh>

    What on Earth is going on with that guy? How the hell does he play ahead of Stuie, Sulemana, Edozie, Djenepo...?

    Blows my mind.

    So that shows it’s the players, like it was last season under Hassenhuttl. The core group are pathetic.

    Yes, but know one will sign them. So we are left playing stupid wages and going I to administrator. Well done SR, one of the most perfectly executed business plans I have ever seen. I imagine you have spunked £100-£200m. Up the wall with the vanity and stupidly

    I think the rot set in when the CEO.made that infamous statement about SFC being happy making up.the numbers. Under Cortese, SFC were exciting and going places until he was shafted. Since then the outcome has been inevitable!!

    When we were signing every promising young player in the summer I stupidly had a bet with an Everton mate about who would finish higher. We both joked that if it was 19th 20th finishing position the bet was still valid. We are finishing bottom and I’ll owe that **** money. **** Saints

    When Katherina was looking to sell her majority stake (and went for Gao), I actually spoke to Cortese about coming in with some investors from Qatar.

    I think I still have his contact details knocking about. Shall I tap him up as a Rasmus replacement!? <laugh><laugh><laugh>

    We would not be in this situation with him in charge. No way.

    It was a relatively brief back and forth. He was slightly interested, but then decided it wasn't going to be worth the hassle of trying to do what would have essentially been a hostile buy from Katherina. Shame.

    That's why I would ask him if he wants to be a coach. He cares. A limited footballer,but by god he gave his all. We would have won tonight with 3-4 Benalis

    I have harped on about this for the last month. I have absolute zero confidence. I could see us slide striagt through. Our only hope was survival. Who do really see growing a pair and dictating games in the championship. I think we will be bullied with our current mentality

    Im still confident we won’t slide straight through as it would take a colossal **** up for that to happen. Just look at the bottom 10 in the Championship, we shouldn’t be anywhere near that when we go down.

    But no arguments from me with the strategy this year has been a huge mistake from everyone involved. I think it was over confidence in the current squad, which lead to poor recruitment (in the sense that we should’ve been looking to replace players rather than add youngsters into the mix).
