The longer we muck about the less prepared we are for the new season. It's Coberan/Cooper scenario all over again. Ran by a bunch of clowns. 2

Top, after attending the polo has by the way gone home. Flew out of Farnborough yesterday.

A real privilege to have witnessed it! To all those more recent fans that have supported us since the premier and FA Cup win. ……. We are fooked! Amen What about supporting for 25 years (since aged 8), years, just missing the O’Neil and coming in to see administration, League 1 and all those lows as well as the highs later on. It was the lows and the Championship mediocrity that I knew for so long. But I think we are a shambles and ‘fooked’. Where do I (and people like me) fit into this narrative that anyone who is unhappy with the club must have only been supporting us since the title win? 3 1

It’s driving some of you insane, you’d happily take Wilder or Hassenhutl? Jesus wept. Couldn't care less about either but what has Ralf done since Southampton? He managed Wolfsburg for 4 months and kept them up after being in the relegation zone, but why was he released a few week ago if he's all that? Edited 5 July 2025 by trooky

It maybe more a issue with Sheff W owner being difficult than the money. 2

Such a tired and lazy narrative and exactly the sort of attitude that has allowed this ineptitude to happen. I always thought the league cup would be the pinnacle of supporting this club. I've watched us drop to league one, be stuck in the championship for years on end. Does that mean I can't call out this utterly woeful ownership group for the disconnect they've caused between the club and the fanbase? 4

Finished mid table with them both seasons. He kept Southampton up for 2 seasons even though they had Vesty and Bertrand in the back 4. I might not have mentioned this before but I’d have him if we don’t get Rohl….. He has a decent record around Europe.

Someone who has supported the club for 60 years hasn’t actually seen anything that someone who has for 30 hasn’t. The last 30 years encapsulate everything the club has done from highs to lows. That extra 30 years just means you have seen the mediocrity for longer which is not really the badge of honour some think it is. Honestly, I think people who say it is what it is and this is where we should be etc as they have supported the club for 60 years just no longer really care about the long term future of the club. 2

With 5 manager in last 26 months, we need stability and it's crucial we pick the right man. Unfortunately it's down to Rudkin and Top again😭 1

Just for perspective, I've supported the club for over 70 years and have never been as unhappy and disenchanted with the club (I.e. the owners) as I am now. 1

Dahnsouff Posted 5 July 2025 Posted 5 July 2025 Is the discontent caused by the fact we have succeeded in recent memory? Those stating long term support, must have been content by mediocrity for some time, to only then experience a period of previously unexpected success. Not suggesting the ‘we were shit, so just be happy’ cop out for the board, but what causes now to be so bad?

The manager thing I can see, as we don’t control the whole situation ( but man up and pick someone else if so) the rest seems totally fair.

I think our fans could forgive the odd misstep but there are now litanies of terrible decisions, incorrect priorities and awful choices, yet the same faces remain.. No one is being held to account, and no one, seemingly, seems bothered at board level . The owner has the thinnest skin in football so appears to have surrounded himself with yes men and women.. There is no introspective review, no restructuring, no desire to change.. It feels as if the club is now decades behind the savvy operators who have found a home in the Premier League . I don't expect the club to be in constant comms with us, I appreciate there has to be a degree of opaqueness, but we appear to be moving at a glacial pace in what is a very important season, a predicament we find ourselves in as a direct result of our boards' complete ineptitude.. The James Maddison "we'll be fine" tweet seems to be emblematic of the laissez-faire attitude that has got us in this mess, and will stop us getting out of it.. 3

I can write you one on their direction, it's not hard. Whether they take the correct actions towards that is another matter A comms about the manager situation? Never seen one of those about pre-sacking a manager after the final game or the season but having to wait til end of June/July, nor have I seen a club issue a comms with an update of their pursuit of a manager currently trying to get out of the contract from another club. Be frustrated by the situation sure but not sure a lack of comms is worth getting upset over Happy birthdays I'd be 99% sure is nothing to do with club except for the social media team. Low quality engagement sure, especially when it done for birthdays like Ward or Faes yet it would look odd for the club to pick and choose who they issue birthday wishes to based on how good or liked they are. Would be good to knock this one on it's head though PSR not my strong point however with all the legal action with whats going on I dare say there isn't much they can give out 2
lcfc278 Posted 5 July 2025 Posted 5 July 2025 If it’s between waiting another week to get Rohl or getting Wilder in today, I’m waiting another week, maybe even two. 1

Trent Steel Posted 5 July 2025 Posted 5 July 2025 Typical City arsing about trying to sign a new manager... and then we will end up signing some foreign dude who no ones heard of.
