    Its not going to happen, but I think we need to be making St Mary’s an ugly and uncomfortable place for our own players and for SR. They need a fire lighting under them.

    Remember when Everton’s fans were chastised for chasing their players out of Goodison. Well look at their current position compared to ours, it worked.

    What’s the worst they can do in return, be the worst team (and players) in the history of the top division by even more than they are already?

    Shame doesn’t bother them.

    Not one of these players would have made Poches team

    Well where to start with that?

    - Sulemana, please, please I never want to see him in a Saints shirt again. Lazy, arrogant, horrible player.

    - Why on Earth did Bree and Wood come off? Wood was doing fine. Taylor was clueless. He got ripped to shreds time and again. Sugawara is getting worse and worse with every game.

    - Ugo and Aribo were both f*cking dreadful. Such a lazy, gutless midfield pair. Send Ugo back, his attitude is crap. Aribo is not Prem standard at all.

    - Juric. You're team is getting battered, and you stand like a statue on the sideline. Have you run out of ideas already?

    The very least I want to see is players battling and fighting. We couldn't even do that. Brentford, were much, much hungrier all over the pitch.

    Go on SR. Stick Rasmus on a fans forum. I dare you...

    Can't agree with the refund comment though. Always find those things petty tbh.

    I am really not hopeful for next season. I think it will be very hard to rid the club of the malaise without a mass clear out

    Agree with all of that except the Bree bit. He had to go off as was offering absolutely nothing.

    Didn't get the Wood sub at all.

    Bree was absolutely woeful. I’m shocked you didn’t see that.

    Since the beginning of December we've played 4 league games at home and conceded 16 goals.

    Scored one <laugh>

    I think they will need to reinstate last seasons ST prices if they don’t want the attendances to capitulate though.

    I don’t see them doing it mind, I certainly won’t be back next season without a massive discount.

    Normally I think the idea of a refund is stupid, but in this instance there is some merit.

    Season ticket prices are crazy and to be relegated by.. September/October is an absolute travesty

    Don’t I know it <laugh> sat through the lot of it.
    Quite funny that Brentford wasted a lot of that game time wasting tbh. They could have gone for the PL record today if they’d tried, though to be fair, they did only play 3 days ago so might as well take it easy and win by 5.

    And remember the last three games represented some of our best remaining chances to get points on the board.

    Yeah I remember saying when the prices were announced that they might regret it when we go back down as I can't see huge discounts and then crowds won't be anywhere near the 23/24 numbers.

    About that stadium expansion...

    As I said yesterday this was my 13th consecutive game, doubt we've had a worse run spanning that in my lifetime so I've chosen well to have my most attended season.

    Think I'll genuinely be fuming if we win at Old Trafford lol. Not that there's much chance of that.

    Oh well that's a bit disappointing. Preferred my version so might just stick with that.

    Ramsdale

    KWP
    THB
    Bednarek
    Wood
    Manning

    Flynn
    Fernandes

    Dibling
    Archer
    Adarma

    This is the line up. It won't earn us many more points, but at least this lot will put up a fight each game. I don't want to get thrashed every week.

    Edited: Note to self: a football team has 11 players, not 12.
