    Where is the best place to keep checking if he’s gone or should I just keep checking the Saints twitter page every half hour?

    I just got a phone call from Radio Solent.


    The chap on the phone said, "Congratulations we picked a number at random and all you have to do is answer the next question correctly to win our grand prize."


    "Wahoo!" I shouted in delight.


    "It's a Maths question," he said. "Feeling confident?"


    "I've got a degree in Maths," I proudly replied.


    "Okay then, to win a VIP season ticket and to meet Nathan Jones and sit next to him during the next home game at St Mary’s, what’s 2+2?"


    "7," I replied.

    Actually **** this, I'm fuming.

    SR have been an unmitigated disaster for this club. Their decision making has got us relegated to the championship in the most pathetic ****ing manner. Apart from Lavia, the summer signings have been at best ok, with the vast majority of them ****ing ****. What the hell were they thinking placing Bazunu as our no.1? The kid was playing on loan in league 1 prior and they think he's suddenly going to hack it in the PL? Aribo is terrible, Edozie is OK, but again not good enough.

    ****ing up the manager situation is what will have us down. Ralph should have been binned in the summer but they ****ed around and then recruited Nathan ****ing Jones. The worst manager in Saints history. This was supposed to be our easier run of games. We're down now, and it was completely avoidable.

    I know a lot of you think SR have been pretty good because they've splashed the cash but they've spent it on such ****e players they may as well not have bothered. They've got the managerial appointments so so wrong that it's actually negligent. Nathan. ****ing. Jones. It was so ****ing obvious that he wasn't the right replacement. Everyone could see it.

    I hope it costs them (personally) ****ing millions when we go down. I'd be happy for them to sell the club ASAP. They're where the songs and chants need to be aimed at. Not the Welsh David Brent.

    SR out
    Jones out

    D60E2F5B-83AC-41A2-ABA9-4919C82F09AA.jpeg This is why NJ ran down the tunnel straight after the final whistle, as he didn’t want the players to see that his good luck shoes did not work today.

    It's not just the manager situation with SR. Look at the past year theyve been here. There's been so many weird/strange/**** decisions made everywhere you look, I'm not sure if they've improved us one bit. Quite the opposite in fact.

    They can shove their data up their arse. Make judgements based on what you see and not what your ****ing ****ty algorithm is telling you.

    According to talksport, the board is considering sacking him tonight... likely he will see out the rest of the season then.

    I'll take anyone now, Marsch, Fat Sam, don't care. Go all out and get Kompany and Tella in. Just do SOMETHING!

    If we want to stand any hope of keeping some of our more talented players for next season then they need to have reassurances that we’re capable of a quick return.
    Even if this season is beyond us, a change of manager and some hope is needed.
    The rebuild starts asap

    I don't get the clamour for Selles. Like, he has a lot of love online and I just don't get it? He's been here all season, so his coaching obviously isn't going too far or working very well Manager? Well, it can't get any worse but not for me.

    I just don’t see how he can inspire players? Unless he’s completely different behind closed doors, which I find hard to believe.

    His demeanour, his excuses, his drivel.

    Not that it would be too representative but just noting we were very poor in the one game he ran between RH and NJ.

    I think it’s fine for him to run a few games if it means we have a more robust recruitment process for manager this time, just not sure about him as full time manager.

    BBC Sport reporting that Nathan Jones has 'No idea' if he will stay. Think they should has just reported just that Nathan Jones had 'No idea'?

    Agreed. We were **** when he came in and we are still ****.

    Not saying any of it is his fault, but I don't really get why some fans are saying he should take over.
