Ward is probably the happiest player out of the bunch. An ambitionless career back-up goalie whom Brendan now exposed. He'll be lucky to be signed by the likes of Biscuit FC when his contract with us runs out.

[Corky]

More pleased than not, I reckon.

[Dames]

Despite what they are trained to say in the media its been clear for a while now its been an unhappy dressing room. 
 

No doubt a few posts will crop up tonight or tomorrow but I don’t think it’ll be many.

Ward must be pooping bricks at his chances here now

No chance, he’s back in the running now, new manager clean slate and all that  

[Wymsey]

Possibly that the shackles are off and they could now able to play to their strengths.

[Unabomber]

I bet it ranges from pleased to absolutely ****ing delighted. 

[HarryDee8]

Relieved! 😅

Your post about them all looking miserable as they got off the coach at Palace was interesting. It’s as if they were dreading the game, and clearly that showed in the performance. It’s as if the manager has completely failed to rev them up for the game

Athletic headline mentions there were/are cliques within the squad

This is worrying news to me, though perhaps not that surprising. The article mentions the Belgian one, and I guess the other one is the ones you often see on TV like Maddison, KDH, Barnes, etc.

Frankly I imagine they'll just give a shit about their next pay check, honestly I can't wait until most of those willy pullers leave as well.

[Fox92]

Hopefully feel like they are responsible as much as the manager as to the position we are in. Trouble is I don’t think some of them can think.

Yeah can’t see that.

[The Quick Brown Fox]

Bet the defenders are thinking FFS my pass stats are going to take a hammering now.

Been mentioned on here before that he wasn’t a popular man amongst the young lads 

[StanSP]

Hopefully several players get a new lease of life. And don't feel as restricted in their play. 

[TeaMen Tom]

I'm not that they players care all that much at this point. Certainly the new ones might, but for a lot of these guys they're probably thinking 10 more games and they're out of here. 

[DerbyshireFox]

I’m not surprised to see some reports of a disconnect with the squad. Watching the buses arrive at Southampton, it seemed like the coaching staff and the players travelled on separate coaches. I know two buses has been common place since Covid, but it seemed quite strange to me 

[Jaspa]

Suppose we'll see on Tuesday

Not one player posted on socials after the game, they knew it was coming 

Imagine they’ll have been embargoed by the club. Some will want to say their thanks and rightly so because the first two years of his tenure were fantastic. 

[David Hankey]

"Wonder what the players thoughts are?", could and should have done better!!

[The Quick Brown Fox]

Will I be allowed to shoot now? 

 

If I get to their box do I have to pass it back to our own half? 

 

How do I get Brendan's football out my head?

...or they knew what was on this game!!!

  Their reaction at the end spoke volumes, so many do not have that reaction when we lose, you feel they new what was going to be the outcome if we did not win this game.

 A poster stated the club were looking fir 4 points from Chelsea, Brentford and Palace, it would have been interesting had we lost to Brentford before the International break.

[Paninistickers]

You only have to look at training pics to see there's a french speaking crew; Mendy,.Soumare, ricardo 

 

The Belgian lads

 

The young midlanders KDH, Madders, Thomas 

 

 the Wilf, Amartey, Kels type African lads. 

 

Not sure they are cliques. Just naturally inclined to get on best with those where you share same humour and cultural references and values 

 

Vards and Evans don't appear to have anything in common with anyone
