The Managerial Merry Go Round™ - Will Still Southampton manager


Recommended Posts

It's bit of a s*** move to sack him after Man Utd away, they should have done it after a match that was more winnable either before or after that match.

 

WAT.  :dowie:

In my opinion a team who are expected to be fighting relegation shouldn't sack their manager after losing to Man Utd away, especially when they are only 3 points away from safety. If they had lost to a team in and and around the relegation zone then fair enough, but you can't say to the manager that he needs to get a result from Man Utd away to keep his job especially when survival is still a realistic possibility.

 

The gift that keeps on giving. :thup:

No surprise really. They've been fucking awful - 3 wins in 23 league games.

 

Pearce is a manager of the Paul Once ilk. Completely out of his depth and a tactical dinosaur.

 

Paul Once?

 

Ince.

 

Once you go Ince your team turns to mince.

Freedman in at Forest? I would have honestly kept Pearce...

he did do a great job at Palace

 

Come on, you sound like someone commenting on how great Pardew was for us.

well he did do a great job at Palace they got promotion on his ground work, kinda baffled me why he went to Bolton when that club was hardly in great condition post relegation.

Please, please, please, if there is a higher being, make this end soon. Please, I can't stand any more of it.

 

First time six league games in a row without scoring in our 141 years. That's a brand new record to add to all the other shit ones.

 

10 points from the first four games, then just 12 points from the next 57, and 7 goals in 19 games.

 

Then there's this:

 

10947339_1014826888544869_15711589185593017_n.jpg?oh=5442956c8e68fa45e0d5c2e4012e3286&oe=556A27B7&__gda__=1433112202_884e1425ce3728d22f14216164fce18f

 

In just his first season:

 

Worst ever start to a season

Highest number of goals conceded.

Biggest ever league defeat. Ever.

Biggest number of goals conceded without reply (16).

Highest number of home defeats. (9)

First side to get beaten over two legs by a fourth tier side.

 

Second season:

 

Highest number of home defeats (10)

Equalled record for lowest number of points in a PL season (record set by McLeish two seasons before).

 

Third season:

 

Highest number of minutes without scoring a goal.

Lowest goal tally after 20 games.

Lowest points tally in a calendar year

Longest period without scoring in front of The Holte.

 

Managerial statistics for us:

 

P113 W34 D26 L53

 

Lost just under 50% of his matches with us.

 

Last week, CEO speaks up for this first time: blaming Paul is a "false narrative", it's not his fault, we're "building a team around Paul, to help him"

 

Total and utter head in the sand, with a gigantic "fuck you" to the fans. Sickmaking.

How has he lasted this long? :lol:

Because they have a tool like Ashley at the top of the club.

 

 

 

Is the correct answer.

 

Mind you, at least your tool is interested enough to go to matches occasionally. Ours isn't.

 

The bloke started great but in the last four years has been significantly worse than Ellis. Ellis, despite having cashed out 9 years ago and being 90 years old and barely able to stand any more, still goes to every match, home and away.

 

Lerner probably only watches our matches on telly if he's got no Big Bang Theory box set to watch instead.

 

Mind you, in a way I don't blame him. it's about as much fun as being repeatedly punched in the cornea.
