I wonder if the reality was Rohl took one look at our club and the owners and thought " no thanks" |

Like Mara's pass against Leeds , our Gavs save against Millwall will go down in folklore...along with that 22 game unbeaten run of course. !! |

Agreed , a new CB who's actually decent would be a massive bonus.
I think the club were pinning their hopes on Harwood Bellis becoming the main man and he could still potentially become that.
Unfortunately he still makes too many mistakes and looks reckless at times.
We miss Bednarek imo. |

Its seems very strange to me that a Stats driven club like ours have persisted with Bazunu.
He was close to bottom of the 24 keepers in the 23/24 Championship season for goals prevented and shots to saves ratio.
This season he is 23rd out of 24 and 24th for the same stats .
We need a plan B big striker as our crosses are easily dealt with and our midget firwards get bullied easily.
When the opposition press us and we have to go long, we have no one to hold up the ball like Che Adams used to do.
We also need a commanding CB who actually attacks the ball .
Otherwise we'll become a midtable Championship side for many years, which seems likely under this ownership sadly. |

In the 23/24 season under Martin with the likes of Bednarek, KWP, Adams etc , after 23 games , the same amount we've played this season we were on 45 points.
Compared to the 31 points we currently have.
We'd be 2nd now with that amount.
Each year Clown Republic diminish us further and further...as someone amusingly put it ..into a player trading and funfair business. |

I think he'll bring Quarshie back in for Stephens.
I'd love us to try something different but I dont think he'll do that, possibly due to injuries to the right backs and a lack of a big man alternative up front.
You feel bringing in Edwards as well would easily solve our current problems..I'd love this to be the case but if you look back the last time Edwards was in the team we lost 3 games on the trot . Bristol City away, Blackburn away and Preston at home.
Whoever plays tonight or whatever formation I think we'll have a decent chance as Blues will come at us rather than our achillies heel of teams sitting back in numbers which we can't handle. |

No thanks.
Walcott, Lallana, Romeu...all shot ..legs gone ....we need to learn from this and move on from sentimental thinking.
When Cortese was running the show we were utterly ruthless and binned off players that were either old/not good enough for the relevant league we were in .. |

Fair enough Pat.
Would love the club to show real ambition and bring in a quality CB, Keeper and big no 9 .
Unfortunately clown republic seem hellbent on turning us into yet another run of the mill championship club.
How far have we fallen since they've taken over. |

You feel Edwards would improve us.
What I've seen of Edwards has been disappointing to say the least.
He was raved about by QPR and we all looked forward to seeing him play for us. At first he couldn't establish himself after getting bullied and out paced by Kiffer Moore in the first game and giving away a stupid penalty.
He then came back into the lineup and was given the run of games that I thought would allow him to settle down and show his ability.
Unfortunately imo he has never impressed.
Bullied at the back post by the Derby striker which they scored from, a bad error for the Preston opener and that was me done with him.
Less Centres on the pitch would serve us better as they're all mediocre.
I'd get Charles back from injury and play him in midfield with Downes and Jander. |

To be fair he did have a run of games.
Unfortunately imo he looked poor or average at best...to small, weak and lacked pace.
He's comfortable on the ball but no better than THB or Stephens in that respect , so doesn't really offer anything different.
A real shame as I had high hopes for him after his season of success at QPR .
Let's be honest and say none of our CBs have shined this season.
Last time in 23/24. We let a lot of goals in but Bednarek looked miles better than our current lot and THB shone alongside him.
Add in KWP at fullbacks and perhaps this explains why we're now an average Championship club when they've been replaced with likes of Wood, Edwards , Quarshie , Wellington, Roeslev etc....all are a downgrade.. .its the Sports Republic way. |

That was my first away game too.
Your right they totally dominated us and we did well to hang on to get to extra time. |

Would you prefer us to persist with him then?
How much time do we give him?
Do you want us to achieve promotion? |

That's ridiculous Nick to say its hatred.
I don't think anyone hates him, yes a few comments are OTT but he is consistently bottom of the table in both Championship seasons.
Saints fans just want a keeper that makes saves that win us games.
Its quite normal that supporters have opinions on players that just because they dont match yours doesn't make them wrong. |

This game has got me worried.
They've got a good record against the bigger sides this season.
We're poor defensively....we always concede a bad goal ..its feels inevitable.
Hoping for a Tonda masterclass. |
