    Bye bye David Moyes. Yet again our own inadequacies look more and more glaring. we couldn't even score one against those bubbling gimps.

    West Ham v Leicester for Potter?

    Loser gets Moyes/Rodgers (whichever they didn’t just sack)




    Bigger loser gets Lampard…..?

    Southampton it is then! For the life of me, I cannot believe Chelsea would have Lampard back. There will be a fan insurrection!!

    Not as a temporary manager till end of season. I think he'd actually do fine there under those circumstances. They have the squad.

    Shocking isn’t it. We are the lowest of the low atm.

    I like the way Potter turned down Leicester's initial.approach for his services. Perhaps these managers are taking a leaf out of Guardiola's thinking by reflecting on their experiences, mistakes and what.they can do to improve. Guardiola took time out to learn German prior to.his appointment at Bayern.

    Hassenhuttl goes to Leicester. We get Rodgers. Next time we play them we beat them 9-0. The matrix is exposed. Bazunu gets Keanu-like reflexes from that moment on.

    From a Saints fan perspective, the only change I would make is 'Keanu-like' to 'Bambi on ice-like' <whistle>

    I was referring to the PL, not the lowest in the football league. We’re in a league with many **** teams struggling for points. They look forward to playing Saints because it’s a good chance of 3 points.

    Also, it wasn’t long ago that we were actually 90th (?) out of 92 clubs iirc. Of course that was NJ territory so we should have stormed up that table since Selles has taken over? Anyway, in the PL, for troubled clubs, we are definitely the gift that keeps giving.

    You might want to review your numbers as to have been 90th/92 we would have needed to have been in League 2.

    Think he was referring to points gained in 2022 calendar year across all the teams in the top 4 divisions, don’t know how we are doing in 2023

    No, he’s totally correct. Statistically we were one of the worst teams in the entire football league based on points and goals scored

    Nope, no review needed; it was a table of all 4x leagues. I’m sure someone can recall. Edit. Found it but can’t post?
