THE PLAYERS MUST SURELY SEE A DEAD MAN WALKING …
at 22:06 22 Oct 2025

I know I keep banging on but why don’t SR consider Ole Gunnar Solskjær. Nearly 500 games as a manager, respected by the players as a former player and a win rate of over 50%, he’s also out of work so his former club won’t be looking for a huge signing fee. But then what the feck do I or any of us know?

Don’t like the bloke, but think he’s now burnt his bridges here in the UK, maybe his style of play would be better suited abroad, the way they play in Italy might suit him perfectly.

Sack the manager
at 14:16 5 Oct 2025

Everyone is getting on Will Still’s case, I watched the game on telly and thought he…
Chose the wrong squad, the wrong team, the wrong playing positions, the wrong tactics, the wrong substitutions at the wrong time, the wrong halftime oranges, the wrong tracksuit, the wrong trainers, the wrong tone of voice, the wrong hair color, the wrong team bus, the wrong club owners, the wrong club, the wrong city, the wrong country to work in, the wrong girlfriend, the wrong coaching staff, the wrong back room staff, the wrong grounds man, the wrong bus driver and the wrong set of fans.
Other than that I thought he had a good game.

BBC story about feral teenagers in Shirley

“I know these kids. Um, I've worked in the areas we're talking about, around Lambeth, Lewisham, I know their problems, I know their frustrations, lack of community facilities, I know their parents...and in my opinion, Professor Duff's suggestion that we should cut off their goolies is the only solution”.

New Saints captain
at 15:10 25 Sep 2025

Middlesbrough on Saturday, desperate for a win, don’t mind a draw or even a spirited lose, providing the whole team play with the same passion shown by Ryan Manning against Liverpool. Rather than WS tearing into him for the ‘needless’ yellow card, I say make him Captain and let him show what is and what is not an acceptable performance.
Dare I say it’s the kind of thing Jimmy Case would have done in his heyday, although rather than just slam the ball into the grass he would have publicly kicked DD’s ar5e.

Potter won’t leave West Ham, he’ll get sacked thereby getting his severance pay. Even if Potter doesn’t come to Saints there are plenty of out of work managers who might welcome the challenge. Gerrard and Solskjær both spring to mind. Both have played and managed at the top level and most importantly will have the players respect.

Leaving aside the Liverpool game, here are the next six games taking us through to the end of October.
Borough H
Sheffield United A
Derby A
Swansea H
Bristol City A
Blackburn A
It may sound defeatist but the way we’ve been playing recently, I can’t see picking up any more than four point from these games.
At what point will SR admit their WS experiment is an utter disaster and look to appoint Potter (or another experienced Manager) to pull us out of the sh1t hole that they have created.
You say six games isn’t enough, well how about twelve embarrassing performances or maybe eighteen, how far will SR stretch your patience.

The current boss is still in place, however here’s a few stats (*) to consider when comparing Graham Potter and Will Still…
Professional games played - GP 320
Professional games played - WS 0
Total games managed - GP 490
Total games managed- WS 135
Win % of games managed - GP 42%
Win % of games managed - WD 42%
I think the most telling number here is the games played. It would be interesting to know the thoughts of the current first team and how they view a boss who has never played the game (professionally). It’s early days but are we already seeing a reaction from the senior players who simply have no respect and are not playing for the boss?

To talk about another Manager whilst we still have WS in place, but if Graham Potter was to become available would he be worth a punt?

Good shout, in the absence of Keane, Case or Souness how about Jonjo Shelvey, he’s on a free and would fit the bill.

It’s Sunday, we’re 2-1 up against Portsmouth at 75 minutes, we need a leader on the pitch who can shout and holler at his mates, scare the sh1t out of the opposition, kick some a7se, shut up shop and win the game.
Who from the current squad (or wish list) would you bring on?

I agree and if SR were looking to regain the fans affection, they could really earn a big Brucie bonus as it would be very popular with the fan base.
