The long-awaited search for a new manager seems to be nearing its climax, but the burning question remains: Is Russell Martin the saviour to take us back to the Premier League? In this week's podcast, we all knew what was coming when Southampton played Brighton, Spoiler alert: It didn't end well, but hey, only one game left, right? And as we gear up for our final top-flight showdown, it's Liverpool next at St Mary's. Will it be a thrilling farewell or a painful goodbye? We'll go over both of those games, discuss Russell Martin's career history, and discuss the return of Tino Livramento. Welcome to TSP 234! Listen Watch
Good therapy as always. Just did a 40 min cardio workout to get rid of my frustrations, slow dog walk listening to the pod and then 10 mins of mindful meditation. Ready for my day now lol. I think we’ll rerun these pods next year and laugh at how bad it got. Thanks guys!
A season of poor recruitment and managerial mistakes finally ends with an ironically thrilling game at home to Liverpool, the final game of a sorry season threw up a few surprises.

Thanks for another year of fantastic pods to all at TSP who work on them. Must have felt relentless with the same old dour performances to discuss week in week out! The pod however, has been one of the few positives about this season! I regularly found myself more invested in listening to the pod then watching the 'football' itself! A great community therapy session to help get us all through what has been by far and away our worst season in the PL. Enjoy the summer break and lets hope we have a cause for optimism and lots of exciting things to talk about come the start of the new season!
Thanks so much for the feedback/kind words! Makes all the hard work (/largely repetitive agendas! ) completely worthwhile.
Thanks guys for what has been a difficult year (if somewhat predictable in results from Jan/Feb!). So often the voices of reason in the jungle of social media posts. Said it before, very therapeutic in times of adversity. Remember, if it wasn't for the bad times, we wouldn't appreciate the good times.
Echoing what’s been said, the pod has been an oasis in a desert of lesser mediocrity this season. Keep it up chaps. As TIOON7 says, some voices of reason and humour in the shark pond.
Just agreeing with what the others have said, I can’t thank you guys enough for all your hard work trying to make some sense of the riddle wrapped inside an enigma that is Southampton FC, especially this season! TSP is always a source of great insight, amusement and comfort, no matter how bad, or very occasionally good, the stuff served up on the pitch has been. Thanks again guys!
