    Just showing replays of their penalty, Macca did well to get out of the way, talk about right down the middle

    Yes, but he hasn't resorted to playing Jones' signings. So he can add that to his CV.

    I think if there was a location chart for their goals, there would all be a yard from the middle

    Going down the middle is such an obvious cheat code with penalty taking. I have no idea why 90% of footballers take the risk of shooting left or right.

    I wish. It'll be the same half arsed shrugs from the majority. Half the Chapel will clap the ****s off and there'll be "Good luck and thanks Prowsie" signs. At least one kid will have a sign up asking for Lavia's shirt, the parent of said child deserving as much of a slap as Ankersen.

    ****ers to a man.

    Pricks.

    I’m in chapel, I won’t be clapping or booing. I’ll probably be 1km away nearing the car

    That starting line up with Bree instead of AMN and I think we win that match, all the stats in our favour but dreadful defending.

    I’ve always thought this for keepers. Just wait and see where the player is going to put it, majority of pens aren’t right in the corner and if they are you probably aren’t getting it even with choosing a side and going early

    Hopefully people simply won't turn up to the last 2 home games. Nothing would send out a stronger message than 10,000 empty seats for a PL match.

    Never like to draw anyone out in a very **** team.

    But ANM,

    Go home tonight and actually re think your career choices , total embarrassment. If I did that for my firm I'd be sacked in the morning.

    Can put up with players not being good enough and still trying , meh fair play. But coming from Arsenal and behaving like that. Sorry

    **** YOU

    Apart from ABK, I thought the lads at least showed some fight even though the quality and confidence isn’t there
    I accepted relegation ages ago so not getting angry any more as I expect to loose but just won’t accept not fighting

    Presumably (hopefully) neither AMN nor Selles will be here next season, but Bree will be and is proven to be decent at Championship level. So it would be nice if he was treated a little better and involved in the first team…especially as we are lacking in functioning full backs…

    Another thing, our formation totally changed with the triple sub. We lost all fluidity, just confused behind the sense of it all

    What else can you do? Throw coins, scream foul mouthed abuse, storm the pitch and kick the manager? Seasons been over since Arsenal, not a lot of point watching now unless its to support the club through into the afterlife, I mean Championship.

    We seem to be agreeing more and more lately to the extent it's becoming alarming! He can **** off back to Arsenal and keep the bench warm, getting the odd few minutes when it doesn't matter. Lazy, arrogant ****.

    I completely misread that as "I'll be 1km away keying his car" <laugh>

    Harsh but fair Sir!

    Lower than Wigley. Lower than Wotte. Lower than Poortveliet. Lower than Branfoot.

    Actually I’ll save myself the effort of listing bad managers that he is worse than. Yes that’s right folks, Selles has the lowest win percentage of ANY Saints manager in the history of the club. Let that sink in for a moment.

    Such a disappointment, shame, let down. **** up after **** up, managerial & director wise. So amateurish throughout. ****ing angry as well.
