    Of course there is only one way to save Southampton football club now sacking the manager wont do it. Its how the club are been managed higher up. The only way to save them now is mass Boycott fans refuse to go to the games and any activity that helps southampton make any money. let the directors feel it in their pocket and if that means Southampton been relegated to even lower then the national league, by which ever means be it financial reasons they are automatically lowered so many leagues in one go or be it slow and painful descent down league by league due to having to sell players and not been able to afford good ones repeatidly as they go down the leagues. Then only then will the directors feel it in their pockets and be willing to change.

    This is what they must do now.

    Makes me so sad to see this persistent schadenfreude.

    The way I see it professional sports players are entertainers and I have the right to derive entertainment from watching the games or following the sport in whichever way pleases me.
    Its better then constantly hating on trans people or jews or etc.

    Once more with the Jew reference.

    Change the **** record Dave or at least understand that if that's going to be your cornerstone then whilst Israel is murdering civilians, they are going to get a bit of a hammering every now and then.

    Nobody on here hates on Trans people, Jews, Gays, or any of that ****. You even went as far as to say that you think I despised you.

    Wrong buddy, really wrong. I actually care about you and often find myself concerned for your mental wellbeing simply as a result of some of your posts.

    That doesn't mean people aren't going to call B.S. if that's what they think.

    Have a great day.

    Well it was a good day of football with both Crystal Palace and Westham winning making things harder for southampton.

    Of course Southampton have two so called easy games coming up and we are hoping that they do not pick up points in these as it could spark a revial for them.

    I will take them getting two points from these two games everton first then Wolverhampton just really hoping they dont get any wins.
    Just got to hope that Everton can pull off a win really routing for everton nervously in anticipation of this game.

    well if it makes you feel better I will be watching saturdays game routing for you. unless southampton score, in which case I need to quit off until you score. Basically my girlfriend believes that if she watches it stops all goals going in and I will gladly take a 0-0 draw on this one so if its level or your winning keep watching in the superstition that this will stop southampton scoring. However if southampton winning we need goals so we stop watching.

    Man Utd sack manager Ten Hag.

    Manchester United have sacked manager Erik ten Hag following the club's poor start to the season.

    Ten Hag's final game was Sunday's 2-1 defeat by West Ham that left the club 14th in the Premier League with just three wins from their opening nine matches.

    United are also 21st of 36 teams in the Europa League table, having drawn their three opening fixtures.

    Ruud van Nistelrooy, who joined the club as Ten Hag's assistant last summer, has been named as interim manager.

    The club said Van Nistelrooy would be in charge "while a permanent head coach is recruited".

    Ten Hag was informed of the decision by the club's board on Monday morning, following the club's defeat by West Ham at the London Stadium.

    The club triggered a one-year extension in Ten Hag's contract following May's FA Cup final victory over Manchester City but just over three months later he has been dismissed after overseeing United's second worst start to a Premier League campaign.

    United are now seeking their sixth permanent manager since Sir Alex Ferguson retired in 2013.

    Amazed he survived as long as he did. The man has spent hundreds of millions on transfer fees, plus hundreds of millions more on wages. Actually making them worse.

    Look at his 5 biggest transfer signings in the 3 seasons he has been there:-

    22/23. Malacia, Eriksen, Martinez, Casemiro, Antony
    23/24. Mount, Evans, Onana, Hojlund, Basindir
    24/25. Zirkzee, Yoro, De Ligt, Mazraoui, Ugarte.

    Just this season, that is £200 million in players in on fees alone.

    Which of those have been a success? Onana is not too bad. Evans is proving that, even at 106, he stays fit more than the other centre halves. And that is probably the best 2.

    Meanwhile, the Minority Owner seems to have been concentrating on getting rid of the tea lady and the cleaner.
