The_77

On the bolded point: he’s is a zealot about the style he wants to play and has absolute faith in its effectiveness without proof of its effectiveness in different scenarios. There’s a lot of correlation -equals-causation in his thoughts about tactics.

Based on his interviews, I’d add to the list that he also seems to believe he knows much more about tactics than he actually does. That said, I’ve spoken to people who were at Southampton during his tenure and they were all very complimentary of Martin’s personality and how he treated everyone at the club. I think that’s excellent quality for younger players and our jaded veterans to be around. I just think we need someone who can get us some clean sheets and ugly points; I don’t know that he’s the man for that particular job.

Not even close. Just checked and “It Was A Good Day” only has 1.5 billion listens on Spotify…rookie numbers.

Tbf, it’s a classic but still no 12 Days of Ormondroyd!

Absolutely heartbreaking that none of the boys know Ice Cube.

Ask yourself this, which of the two options would you prefer?

This isn’t just about one player wanting the club to foot the bill for him to meet up with his mates. A bunch of the players from that squad have been trying for many months to arrange something meaningful with the club to mark the anniversary.

They do. They see this as an opportunity to reconnect fans and reconnect with the fans. The way our owner and other execs have flat-out refused to do anything is hurtful to a lot of those players who love the club and the supporters.

Another window that shows how clueless they are about our current trajectory toward a consecutive relegation.

There’s no way we’ve even started this process. Top did his interview, sacked Marti, and flew back home to Thailand.

Likely too soon for any of them to step in as manager but the boys from the title-winning season are very hurt about the state of the club and want to step in with real football roles, from the academy up to the first team. I have no faith in the clowns in charge reaching out to them for input but I pray they do.

Joop to go with his WHOOP that he wears while running the club like poop.

Unfortunately other clubs in England are very aware of what he is like, which isn’t helping matters. Still, one would have to think there’s been more than enough time for the DoF to figure something out re: one of our biggest problems in the squad.

I would love it if anyone could get the budget for that video.

Jeez, chill, man. I support the effort and that there’s actual action. Everything seems to always be done by the seat of one’s pants and the message “that’s just the way we’re doing it, get on board” instead of actually planning a coordinated effort. But yes, I want this to work.

We made several trips to Europe and won an FA Cup after that late fax. If the focus is on the owner, the protest should focus on the owner. That’s just common sense. Rudkin is not an architect of anything, he’s simply the owner’s representative and deputy, just like he is at the horse racing outfit.

There never will be one but the messaging and symbolism should make sense, at least.

The Adrien Silva debacle happened under Vichai’s watch. The symbolism should connect to the current owner.

Still won the free kick that led to our goal and drew another foul in the attacking third late on.

Ja

Cayman and Howard have big shoes to fill. Great leaders who genuinely cared for the club and were excellent with fans. Another big signing incoming, this is going to be an interesting second half of the season…

Yeah, last time I checked, it’s not the regularly-scheduled Nottingham Forest or Coventry City season.
