Southampton sack Still.

Depends what injuries we get. Tronstadt, Alebiosu, Toth would all need replacing if they were out for a significant period. We also may need a centre half as I feel McLaughlin and Miller need Carter or Wharton in there. As for the rest, the vast majority should be upgradable but we won’t do that.

Because XG is absolute nonsense.

I mean, the XG of that chance Toth saved should have been 0.9 for them alone.

Excellent result. Let’s hope the rest of the afternoon is as Eze.

To be fair he did pretty well from a poor ball to him. Just got too greedy at the end.

The BRFCS player of the season is Ryan Alebiosu 👏👏

Even better on the replay when you realise it’s not straight at him.

That was an awful ball to release Ohashi at the end. This lot look wide open if we can play it correctly. And that keeper is a bit keen to come sweeping outside his box.

This isn’t a knock against rovers being in front, but this could be the worst start by three clubs relegated from the Prem for quite a while.

Get in. The Iceman 🥶❄️

It is bastion.

?

We didn't "best" them, if that means what I think it means. We competed well and looked dangerous, and mustered a couple of OK chances in the first half We lost to a volley Toth should certainly have stopped. The second goal is a great hit, but Miller got done for the cross. And then we meekly played the rest of the game out without threatening at all. I'm not sure why this game is being held up as some bastion of hope.

A recent meeting happened on the 20th. We know this because certain people in attendance have commented on X. We do not know the situation with the minutes. Any talk at the moment of them being disputed are hearsay. I suspect because of the tone of the comments people who attended last time received regarding the minutes and the forum itself, people who attended this time are staying quiet.

It took 25 days for the last minutes to get officially released, so another fortnight to go.

Both work hard, but I suspect centre halves prefer playing against Ohashi a lot more than they did with Dickov. Ohashi doesn't have that nasty, competitive streak.

Saturday 3pm kick off. Not on TV. That hardcore of fans they are now trying to screw every penny out of is even dwindling.

Stopped in Bristol before the Worthy Cup final in 2002. Bit shit. Wouldn't let us in most pubs in the city centre. Ended up in the crappy back street boozers. Not been back since. Wouldn't recomend.

Strange game. That was as poor as we’ve been at home. We gave Southampton so much space to break into it was very naive . And yet we looked like we could cause them problems at the back. Once we went behind I was expecting the second to come. We hung on until half time, then took turns in missing huge chances. When Arma hit the post i would have been worried if I was a Saints fan. Then a tactical master stroke by the Saints manager allowed us back into the game. Credit to the subs who also seemed to give us that foothold. I thought Montgomery’s naive enthusiastic energy helped us in midfield. The attitude was right. A bit of fortune with the equaliser and then pleased for Gudjohnsen to hit the winner. Shout out to Toth for the big saves at 1-0. Match winning.

Listened to the full 7 minute interview this morning. What a nobhead. His body language showed his discomfort, almost anger, at Bayes questioning which , whilst not being harsh, was just direct. His ‘can we just talk about football or end this now’ was telling. He could have said he just wanted to talk about the game, but he had to put the threat in there. Ismael and Rudy come across as two peas in the same pod. All the talk with Travis was he was just being honest when he threw him under the bus. He’s done it with Big Mak now and publically says Tyjon isnt good enough. All very well people saying at least he’s honest, but not when he clearly lies about the squad not having lost any quality.

Southampton 1 win in 9. That eliminates the ‘premier league team last season, what do you expect’ excuses.

The XG suggest we’ve built a shit squad of footballers who are incapable of scoring goals even when they get good chances, hence why we are in deep shit. It’s not ‘bad luck’.

2020/21 you say. Hmm. 🫣

That’s a pretty shocking comment to out in the public domain, whilst backing other players who have looked pretty awful.
