That's all really helpful. Bucklers Hard is getting a lot of votes, so that could be the option.

But all the local knowledge is appreciated. Thank you all.

I've got a friend visiting from outside the UK this weekend and we're driving through it so I thought about stopping at and showing them the New Forest.

I don't really know it, so grateful for any tips of where to go for maybe a walk or a mooch around. Is there a typical New Forest place?

Thank you.

I'm sorry but both the misses just before were nothing compared to McCarthy's error.

Players miss and both were trying to score.

But McCarthy. That's me done with him I'm afraid. He should never play for Saints again.

He's a professional goalkeeper and he's played nearly 300 games and in this game, when we have frustrated Liverpool for the whole half, and we're about to go in 0-0, HE DOES THAT !!

He was under no pressure. He could see that there was a Liverpool player near to where he was thinking about passing. WTAF was he thinking. He can't have been thinking.

I feel like Mark in Peepshow here...

Talk about an unforced error. He must be a complete MORON to do that.

Absolutely criminal.

How has Solak allowed us to get here???:

Dodgy keeper

Dodgy central defenders

Dodgy strikers


Talk about making sure a team has a strong spine.

It's absolutely f***ing insane.

The clowns in charge are not capable of a ruthless, quick decision. Ralph, Jones and Martin all dragged on too long, and there was no attempt at all to replace Selles or Juric.

You say 6 games for WS. I would give him no more than 4 if there's no signs of improvement.

But I suspect he'll be here for at least another 10 games, no matter what happens.

And then they'll make the same mistake again with the next guy.

I think it is deliberate. They don't want someone who actually understands football and how to manage a club coming in and telling them home truths about their 'model'.

So they've appointed a series of people who aren't going to challenge them.

And we are where we are.

You weren't the only one.

I guess the real problem is that we've now seen that the team is playing like a team managed by a naive 32 year old with no experience of English football.

Jones, dare I say it, has got Charlton promoted and they're now sitting with 2 points more than us.

To be fair we didn't 'know' he would be useless.

We knew Solak was useless, and assumed that he'd screwed up another vital appointment but Still could have turned out to be a boy genius.

Unfortunately, he hasn't.

Even these morons wield the axe eventually.

They usually wait until it's far too late to make any difference, but that's morons for you.

I think it's clear that Solak doesn't want anyone coming in that might actually know something about running a football club.

He likes a manager that's going to be grateful to him for the opportunity and isn't going to rock the boat or be too challenging.

Shocked to see that the Russian 'Eurovision' Song Contest has been won by Duc Phuc.

I know time are hard in Russia and Vietnam, but this is a quackers.

I agree that everyone needs to be given a fair crack of the whip.

I also know that these clowns have a track record in relation to ALL the previous recent managers of not getting rid soon enough when it was clear that a manager was not cutting it.

I would give Still 4 more league game. That would be Boro and Swansea at home and Sheff U and Derby away.

This is a pretty low bar, but less than 5 points from those games and, for me, he should go. Personally, I don't think he'll achieve that.

I feel as though today marked the end of a slow death that began when Gao took over.

From beating Inter Milan, we narrowly avoided relegation at Swansea and then had a very patchy time under Ralph, with long periods of not being able to buy a win, and an ever weakening squad. Then eventual relegation, a less than convincing return at the first attempt, followed by an appalling PL season.

And now we’ve arrived at being a bang average Championship side.

It’s been coming. A death by a thousand cheapskate, moronic signings and managerial appointments.

Liverpool away, Boro at home...it could be pretty toxic by the time we travel to Bramall Lane a week in Tuesday, when Chris Wilder shows Will Still and Solak how to manage in the Championship.

There's always the next game, but so far the Will Still/Johannes Spors dream team are not exactly setting the league alight.
