    #passivelycondescending a little mate. It is just an opinion, after all.

    I did think that last sentence myself earlier. That wouldn’t be good if it turns out to be true and hypothetically speaking, hard to hide from the players.

    Perhaps it is just an opinion, but to say that Birmingham were prepared to let their leading scorer go, because he’s “****ing ****” is a stupid opinion.

    I’m entitled to do that and was actually far politer than what I was thinking.

    I do agree with thst, happens with us in our SLT level and isn't great, but people have to get on with it.

    it all feels like it's imploding at the moment.

    Is Kat trying to get the club back of anyone else interested?

    Bet they couldn’t wait to sell their 22 goal striker

    So how much contact do you think Ralph has with Kat and the fraud? Daily? Weekly? Monthly? Why would he even be privy to alleged boardroom rifts? Why would he care? Come on, I know the fan base love him, but as excuses go, that's ****

    Have to say, I’m seriously concerned. I’ve been to every game except Burnley and there are so many recurring patterns.

    Firstly, there have been some incredibly “odd” (being kind) tactical decisions which have cost us. Danso at left back, defensive tactics against spurs against 10 men, incredibly negative tactics today when 2 goals down.

    A midfield who refuse to take responsibility to pass forwards and a totally inept defence. The tactics today were horrific...constant overlaps on both sides and still totally outgunned in midfield. Subs too late once again. Seriously poor!

    I agree, but dear oh dear is condescending imo.

    we can all disagree if we feel like it, but I think that's unnecessary

    Is it still okay to use 'four' instead of 'for', or should we fourget about all that now?

    I don't think so, you're entitled to an opinion, but in mine you didn't need to do that

    You think this didn’t impact off season? How many clubs with major toxicity at the top have continued to look good. It’s no coincidence.

    You can think he’s **** if you like. That’s a perfectly fine opinion (though I’d disagree). But to suggest Birmingham were prepared to let him go because they agreed is the daft part.

    After 60 minutes it was obvious we weren't going to win that game. Those weren't tactical subs. Just giving some players a bit of a runout. I was fine with it.

    I wouldn't even have thrown on Boufal, tbh. Might as well go deeper and put Armstrong or Stephen's in.

    Let’s be grateful I didn’t post my opinion then as you’d have had something to complain about.

    You seem to be keeping an eye on me Billy. I’d better try and behave to your standards.

    Anyone who expected a different result today was just kidding themselves.
    Chelsea and the others are light years ahead of Saints. Money talks.

    The thing is though, it was blindingly obvious with even just a 5 minute google search that Gao was not in it for the right reasons. How the hell was it not obvious to Kat and her team!? Ridiculous position to be in. It really is just try and stay in the league until our ownership situation is resolved. Ralph has seemed off this season. He was fresh and enthusiastic when he came in last season. He hasn’t looked the same man this season and his managerial decisions have gone in the same direction.
