Found it:- “Coach and Analyst Steve Rands have also left the Club. Steve, Alan and Steve depart with our thanks for their contribution during their time with the Club and with our best wishes for the future. Men’s First Team training will be overseen by First Team Coach Ben Dawson, supported by coaches Danny Alcock and Andy Hughes” Just hope they’re better than those P.E. Teachers wasted games in the relegation season. But surely we have someone lined up anyway?

Any word on who else (if anyone) has gone and who lead training today and would be caretaker manager Saturday if there’s no arrival? My long range camera picked out this chap who seemed to be running the session

Tesco’s are out of mineral water, plain crisps, bland sandwiches and waistcoats. Can mean only one thing…..Safegate is in town

Stockley park on fire. He’s taken his news well then.

You may be onto something there. Either that or we got them s**t faced on complimentary Chang and got them to sign something on a napkin!

A fire at VAR HQ? Seems like Coopers taken the sacking news well! 20 years ago I could have done a Wenger Joke - it looks like it was Arsene!

We had the points deduction looming and no real budget when Potter looked last time. The England job has come and gone, Man Utd too, none of the big 6-8 roles are due to become available anytime soon so it’s here, West Ham or overseas.

We need Potter. Harry Potter, to get us out of this mess!

Re why now not 2 weeks ago, maybe the attitude to a home game v Chelsea was the last straw. Vs Spurs on the opening day we played like that 1st half and he said the players had misunderstood the instructions. For this park the bus to re-emerge, this time without proper explanation is new. The spell where the players heads went completely was new (to the extent they went), the body language was at a new low, Vardy’s response was at a new extreme. This wasn’t another defeat it was an unprepared s***show, unprofessional at every level, no press, no urgency, no personality. It was a new low, lower than the old low. That’s why today.

Top read this and it tipped the balance. OK Southampton aren’t getting points today but tides are turning and we’re stood in quicksand.

Outsiders will say harsh as we’re not in bottom three but as MOTD / TNT etc have said we’re very poor and not coming out to win games. I usually get angry at the outside view anyway, they dip in and out and see us for free, they’re not emotionally invested in it like us and they don’t pay £70 to watch a tepid training drill.

Wolves, Palace and now Southampton seem to have woken up and found some vibrancy and confidence. That’s before all of them have a better transfer window than us in January. We really need a reset of approach to games

If we’re just going to watch a training ground drill we should be paying £5 - £10 at most not £60-£70. The decision to contain (try to) rather than compete goes against the “anything is possible” philosophy.

I hold my sheet the same height as everyone else but get jabbed and prodded by someone behind me telling me to lower it as they can’t see anything. I don’t know what they expect to see other than the one in front of me and a slither of day light If it was a claustrophobia issue I’d have some sympathy but if it’s because they can’t see the overall image it’s illogical. They want to see the players come out but we want the players to see the image so it can’t be done any earlier. How it’s all my fault I don’t know!

Faes claiming a prize for those keepy-uppies on the edge of the box

Ooh the fightback begins

Surely a penalty and a lifetime ban for Fofana

.

I have a sneaky feeling……Ayew 98th minute, one yard out

A serial cheat Cucurella

A trumpet? A horn? Bagpipes?

HAHAHAHAHAHA

For this half’s picnic Sanchez will be tucking into a tuna baguette, cheese straws and a yogurt whilst reading chapter 4 of his book.
