Just seen these on Saintsweb. Alfie not holding back!
The top one is spot on, we need an old fashioned manager and not a head coach.

Hey, SR - you need me?

Interesting that even the club pet journo is starting to get it.
Lose this week and there's absolutely no way back for them.
Spors does have a lot to answer for imho. When he took over he said he wanted to sign strong, athletic, powerful players to compete this season.
Still waiting for them.

Had 6 months to prepare for it as well, and we went in woefully unprepared.
Blokes a ****ing fraud.
Hull was the first game this season my block (30) felt like the supporters had had enough - they aren't the most vocal usually but there was a lot of empty seats and a fair number around me left when the 2nd went in. Definitely a few more muttering at the end. Didn't help that the hull support was pretty loud in comparison and it's probably the first game I felt the away support drowned out what we get from the northam (apart from a few choice chants)
Fraud being exactly the right word.
Another who talks a good game but is absolutely full of ****, and therefore fits in beautifully with the rest of the SR setup. Like you said he had ages to dot the I's and cross the T's. What did we get? Damion sodding Downs and Will Still. He ****ed that up and then pressed straight on with Tonda. The bloke is a ****ing blagger
Yeah, whilst I accept that Spors has got some things right, the appointment of Still, the appointment of Tonda, the signing of Downs, and the decision to stick with Bazunu/McCarthy for half a season are four catastrophic errors.
If in the summer we had put in place the right manager, the right striker, and the right goalkeeper, I have little doubt that we'd be in the top six right now.
These aren't even his only mistakes. You could also mention things like the new contract for Stephens, and the failure to utilise the loan market. But those above errors are enormous.
If he was sacked tomorrow, I wouldn't bat an eyelid.

I think that the criticism of the signings need to be extended to Roeslav and the Japanese lad. We just seem to added a lot of fringe plsyers.
I think it is positive that Downs has been moved out but i am staggered thst he eas signed in the first place.
Too many left field decisions being msde that don't work out. I just feel SR are not up to the job.

Wasn't Spors giving it the big bollocks that the buck stops with him, and he would front it too on his interview when he first joined?
Funny that the only time he's 'fronted up' so far is in that very brief period when we were winning games when Tonda was the interim...

Sports Republic, cowards? That lot that try and deflect whenever they get some negative attention from the fans. I'm shocked.
Possibly get laughed at for this, but with the dearth of options, I'd bite the bullet and go out and throw some money for Ralph to come back in, at least for the rest of the season. He wouldn't take any **** (and he hates Stephens, so the potential clique would get a rude wake-up call).
No laughs from me. Mind you, I was one of his biggest fans before so I'm a bit biased in his favour.
Can't see it happening as I seem to remember that there was friction between SR and Ralph when they bought the club and he was the manager, and then they obviously sacked him only to replace him with Nathan ****ing Jones. I get the want for a strong manager who won't take **** from players, he seems like someone who would just leave players out who are causing **** too, and wouldn't be influenced by those above him, and he is also a 'name' and a far better calibre of manager than we've had since...well...Ralph. But we've also been burnt with the returning hero thing one too many times in recent years, albeit with returning players rather than managers. That said, I just don't see it happening anyway even if Ralph was up for it which seems unlikely, I can't see SR going down that road.
