Disco Posted October 26, 2019 Share Posted October 26, 2019 Reading Southampton forum they seem to have similar complaints to us. Hate their owner, hate their own fans for not doing anything. One comment even claiming they have worst ownership in the league. I mean we know they don’t, but hard not to feel sorry for them a litttle even still. https://www.saintsweb.co.uk/forumdisplay.php?5-The-Saints Sold their soul thinking they were gods gift to flipping unlimited youth players. Forgot that it’s not exact science and employed Mark Hughes and his inability to spend money properly. No idea what their Chinese owners have done differently other than no they have young players to shift because of the above. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted October 27, 2019 Share Posted October 27, 2019 Needs to keep the likes of Brighton & Sheff Utd within reach. The table is tight at the bottom but if crap like that produce a gap, I think it’s inevitable Watford & Everton will pull away and he’ll be in deep shite. Part of me hopes he drops Almiron later for Gayle or Atsu and we get a hiding. If we win with Gayle in the team and Almiron benched it’s going to be unbearable.

Guest Posted October 27, 2019 Share Posted October 27, 2019 I’ve just looked at the fixtures properly for the first time, the toughest game on paper that we have between now and Christmas is West Ham away. If he sticks as close to the Rafa formula as possible he could be mid-table by New Year. If he’s still bottom 4-5 at Christmas then there’s no way he’s getting out of it.

Sho Time Posted October 27, 2019 Share Posted October 27, 2019 I actually think bottom 4-5 is ambitious for Bruce. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

We have City at home, Burnley away. Can’t see us beating Sheff U away either tbh. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mid table would suggest multiple wins. Just can't see us scoring enough goals to make that a reality. The Rafa system might avoid some defeats but I can't see it producing enough wins.

It's against the lesser sides we've performed the worst this season. I find those games more watchable tbh, they give a much better indication of where we are. Under Rafa we used to punch our weight with those around us, but I can see Bruce getting continually outfoxed by shit teams with brainier managers. Brighton and Norwich being good examples of this.

ToonArmy1892 Posted October 27, 2019 Share Posted October 27, 2019 You just know things are going to get worse with this clown in charge, whereas with Rafa anyone with half a brain cell knew we would improve. We shouldn't go down with these players, but Bruce will just about see us drop. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
geordiedean Posted October 27, 2019 Share Posted October 27, 2019 Never scored more than 1 in a game all season all our attacking stats have us ranked 20th We are just shit in every aspect will finish bottom quite comfortably Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
samptime29 Posted October 28, 2019 Share Posted October 28, 2019 Going to be very tight. The lack of goals is a massive worry, on the other hand we have a better defence than a lot of our relegation rivals. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

samptime29 Posted November 2, 2019 Share Posted November 2, 2019 Norwich and Southampton both losing and right in the shit. Norwich's away form is gash 1 goal and 1 point from 6 games. Yikes. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted November 2, 2019 Share Posted November 2, 2019 Probably 5 from a 6 so 50-50. I think there are 2 teams clearly worse than us now (Norwich & Southampton). Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Decky Posted November 2, 2019 Share Posted November 2, 2019 Watford seem to be in a dreadful state as well. Especially if they lose another home game today. At the minute it looks straight forward with Norwich, Southampton and Watford going down. But managers will change and it'll look different in a few weeks.

midds Posted November 2, 2019 Share Posted November 2, 2019 We win games and we stay up. We stay up and nothing changes. We stay up and it vindicates Ashley and his ownership. It's a fucking shit state of affairs Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

SteV Posted November 2, 2019 Share Posted November 2, 2019 It's much better to go down than stay up, surviving proves Ashley right. But we’ve gone down twice, and still, here we are. So I fail to see how that is “much better”? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

ToonArmy1892 Posted November 2, 2019 Share Posted November 2, 2019 We should finish about 13th-14th with our squad, but Bruce will see it 15th-18th. It depends what the bottom teams do. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
