Confirmed: Will Still sacked

Not outside of the transfer window. But unless we agree with Charlton to extend his stay, he'll be back in January when his loan ends.

 

Absolutely agree there. I was very Ralph-out at the end (much to the horror of some on here), and I still stand by that letting him go was the correct decision.

Just a shame at the ****show since

 

Yeah i have been amazed we have watched our performances and knowing Rohl was there, and let that all happen with Rangers. Makes the whole thing more maddening to me.

 

His contract is up at the end of the season I think, imagine Charlton will pay a small fee to make it permanent in Jan

 

Ralph's high pressing would be a disaster in the Tuesday-Saturday world of the championship.

That fella at Charlton is doing a good job though.

 

Yeah, the Ralph thing is tongue in cheek. He's not the answer right now.

 

Here's the free transfer manager list. And it's not terribly pretty (of the realistic ones).

Maybe he's just **** at red and white stripey teams beginning with an S.

 

Adolf 'Adi' Hütter, despite the name, would look like the most interesting of those.

 

I can hear the chants now "Hutter, he's a nutter"

 

But at least the team would only have one ball to play with.

 

Could rename us SSouthampton.

 

Mobile rings: "We're letting you go."
Man replies: "Will Still here?"
.... "No, that's the problem."

 

SOSouthampton?

MIDFIELDER Shea Charles rubbished the idea that manager Will Still is to blame for his side's poor start to the Championship season.
Charles insisted that Still should not bear the brunt of frustration from fans, and suggested players must take responsibility for squandered chances.

 

I know it’s stats and all that, but this is interesting. We’re way off where we should be going by our stats, which would suggest it’s not as if wholesale changes are needed. A new/effective striker would be far more impactful than a new manager.

 

Very few things in football that I hate more than XG.

 

VAR?

 

I'd argue that our actual position in the league is much more representative of our performances than that xG table.

 

That's definitely one of the few.

Also the Gabbiadini song

 

Of course. But it’s indicative. It shows we’re creating chances that a half decent strike force would convert. That’s where the issue lies, not necessarily the poor little redhead guy who has been given a bit of a duff hand. Maybe.
