Saints (H) Pre-match - The El Shatico

[Buzzell]

Can’t see us winning a game for the remainder of the season so at best it will be a draw.

that and those in the ground the likes of which clapped us off at half time vs Liverpool are doing far more to put me off going 

Definitely one of the main reasons not to go. 

 

Wouldn't want to be anywhere near these lot on one of my two days off a week.

people aren't actually going to this game are they? 

For me yes. I’ve missed the last few home games, mostly because I couldn’t get to them, but I’ll enjoy a drink or two with my brother, whatever the result is.

We won’t beat Southampton. 1-1 draw at best but they are light years ahead of us.

 

We are the worst iteration of LCFC that I have witnessed in my lifetime.

[The boy Linacre]

TBH RVN has tried so many permutations.  IF he thinks he's not getting the effort, he has nothing to lose now, they will have already all decided whether he is staying or going, so the last 4 games results are irrelevant.  Don't play those he's getting no effort from or he thinks are rubbish, who cares.

I suspect even the fans don't, they just want effort 90 mins, I suspect there are NO other expectations this season.

Sod the playing passengers.

Shame there are now so many injuries or loans.

'Light years'!

 

Here is the 10 game form guide for you:

 

 

We are as shit as each other.

[Gamble92]

I think earlier on in the season I could actually see a bit of logic in the likes of Reid and Ayew and the Premier League experience that Cooper pushed for. There's a lot of areas of the game a lot of fans don't really pick up on or care about and they tend to be the parts the experienced players do well.

 

But now it's like, they're not even doing them basics well enough. Obviously I wouldn't want to see 6 u21s start at the city ground, but playing at least Monga would benefit everybody more than the shit we have been fielding for weeks.

It's been called far more unpleasant names.....the deadest of dead rubbers. Even Cooper got a win off this lot.

They outplayed us off the park for an hour though - No Abdul no win (also helped Fraser getting sent off!)

The team that got relegated to the 3rd division in 2008 would beat this current team. 

 

Compete and utter turd apart from Bilal and Madds (Vardy we'll let off of course) 

[Tommy G]

Looks like plenty of tickets left

Good ... probably when the board see all the empty seats they will get a glimpse of the future.... if Vardy does get the 2 goals he requires against Southampton.... there should be a total boycott of the final home game 

[Richmondfox]

He’ll play the same useless idiots, get the same results and then shout from the sidelines and act surprised when they do the same stupid mistakes. 
 

Soumare and Ndidi to stink out the middle, JJ, Faes and Coady to stink out the back, Bilal and Facundo have to drop deep and do everything while being outnumbered by players that press and tackle.

Vardy has 2 home games left and its a great time to spend with my boy and ill get some beers / food after. Judge all you want - the football might be crap but i can spend my day how i want.

I can think of so many more fun things to do than watching multi millionaire footballers stick two fingers up at you but you definitely can do what you like. 

 

The fact the players don't give two shits would stop me going to this full stop. 

I can see both side here ...

 

But I'm edging towards Chelmofox spending time with his son, its more important than the actual antics  on the pitch and certainly more so than the shallow  pr1cks sticking the metaphorical two fingers up to the fans.  I just console myself knowing I'll still be here once the clowns gone from the club

He can definitely spend time with his son somewhere else though  

 

Each to their own, hope they have a good day.

I do. But he still loves his football and although our position is terrible, he's not raging about it so we still have a good time. We like the people around us too.  We don't sit there happy clapping - he genuinely likes looking at things critically. 

 

One day he's going to grow up.......

 Eastbourne Zimmerframe Utd are light years ahead of us.

 

We might have the same form as Southampton, and 1 place higher in the league, but no doubt about it: they will

turn us over.

Fair enough. An empty stadium is still the only way the fck wits that are destroying our club will finally listen..

The problem with the “prem experience”trope that always gets rolled out is if they have little ability then experience doesn’t matter.  Cooper choosing two dog shit players summed him up as a manager and the direction of the season. That was even before he started playing players out of position and dropping better players.

That pre season set the tone for everything. When you look back, it was only the novelty and adrenaline of being back in the Premier League that seen them amass that many. 

 

The weird idea of playing players no matter who they are in any position, just to gain minutes and getting beat by below average French and Italian teams was horrendous for morale. 

 

Id go as far as to say if Spurs put 4 past us first half like they should have in the first game, we'd be sat on less than Derby's record now. We gained a bit of belief that was then absolutely extinguished second half against Newcastle. Then Wolves at home. 

[Raj]

You can see Abdul at the fanzone now so that will bring the crowds flocking back!

[Lineker's Left Foot]

My team would be:-

 

Carl Muggleton

Tony Loughlan

Steve Prindiville

Phil Horner

Tony Brien

Kevin Jobling

Darren Williams

Jason Garwood

Steve Wilkinson

Gary (?) Flanagan

Martin Russell

 

#Better team than we can muster.  If you know, you know!

[OadbyBlue]

It’s gonna be such a shit off that I think we will cancel each other out, coupled with the fact we can’t score a goal. Nil nil all over it.
