That group represents the LGBTQ+, women's football, strawberry handwash in the toilets, better burgers brigade. Nothing wrong with that, but they won't be arranging any protests any time soon. |

I'm not so sure it wouldn't have an impact. When West Ham fans protested and stormed the directors box, West Ham's owners started to spend a lot more money on the team. They understood the fierce strong message from the fans and they acted. Suddenly, they invested more than they ever did before. Newcastle fans also made their feelings known, and they ended up in a much better place. Likewise Blackpool fans eventually got those terrible owners out that they had.
I think the Saints owners have to know, that they can't just keep f@cking things up, without consequences. It's far too easy for them to keep appointing cheap managers, buying cheap players etc. If we don't make our feelings known, nothing will change. It will just be more of the same. However, although I think we should definitely protest, our soppy lot won't so no I don't think there will be protests. Our fans either walk out ten minutes from the end or they wait to the end to clap the team off, after their 10th home defeat in a row. And nothing ever changes.
Eventually, like when Lowe took us to the depths of the championship, we had a crowd of 13,000 for a league game. This is what will happen in the end, when most of us give up, without any fight. [Post edited 16 Feb 12:24]

I really hope we start again in the championship with Danny Rohl as manager and completely new start. A new team and new era. But Solak said Juric will lead us next year. I wonder how much he will stick to his comments? Otherwise, with these terrible owners, things could be terrible again next year. [Post edited 15 Feb 22:32]

He should never have been playing, but the real culprits of the mess we are in, seem to be getting away with the atrocious way they are running our club. Smallbone is a Southampton lad, a young player, he has a good attitude and got treated badly by the fans. The older men destroying our club are sat there getting no abuse whatsoever.
And good question where was our new player? Don't tell me, he is injured. [Post edited 15 Feb 20:02]

And the plums who sarcastically cheered Smallbone when he came off, a player who is Southampton born and bred, what a bunch of idiots. Yet Sport Republic get off scot free. |

Yes, but if a restaurant kept serving slops for £30 each and the customers keep coming, keep paying, without any complaints, they would carrying on serving slops, making an absolute fortune. Our fans just don't see it. There are still fans clapping at the end and there are no protests whatsoever. So we are getting what is to be expected. If we accept this, keep paying and don't complain, the owners will clap their hands and keep taking the p!ss. Absolute basics. |

I also left after their 3rd. I agree, our soppy fans do nothing. No protests, just a load of people tutting in amongst a load of us smiling and sighing. We managed to get a few of us singing Martin out a few months ago, but that's as far as it went. Now we have an even worse manager with the same terrible owners. We are treated like utter sh!t and that's because our daft fans accept it.
Sport Republic OUT. [Post edited 15 Feb 17:58]

Not a word on football focus about Saints Bournemouth. Man City this, Villa that, Spurs this, Newcastle that. Oh and a bit about the women's football. When all this is over and we are out of the PL, I will be much happier. [Post edited 15 Feb 13:00]

It's embarrassing. A PL club and we have to close our club shop for most of the week. Most clubs also have a shop in their city centre. Watford for example do, and they have been in the Championship for years. I absolutely despise these owners. Totally destroying our club and making us a laughing stock. |

Selles also beat Chelsea in his first game. The fans got him the job by singing his name. We then pretty much lost every game after that. Simon Rusk, has no experience of managing. Every manager fails here, every single one.

Reply | 5 Things About The Burnley Game
at 18:19 11 Feb 2025
My season ticket is in the Kingsland, but for Burnley we sat near the away fans in the Chapel. It was a lot more interesting watching the goings on. Mostly the few Saints fans in the chapel just sat there miserable, but there were exchanges and shouting going on. When Burnley scored, they all came running over to the home support. It did provide a bit of entertainment when there was little on the pitch. It's also a little embarrassing when the away fans sing like crazy, and all they see is a load of silent Saints fans next to them who barely give anything back, because ofcourse they are the quiet lot there. It's very difficult to hear the red wall from the Chapel. It just doesn't seem loud. In the Kingsland it is boring now as I can't even see the away support there. The red wall has had nothing to cheer this year, but being so far away from the away fans, I don't think helps get the fans going. I might move into the Chapel next season. [Post edited 11 Feb 18:21]

at 23:40 9 Feb 2025
It's a massive shame. I have always loved the FA Cup, with the magic of it shown at Home Park this afternoon. Sitting in a half empty, silent St Mary's yesterday was very depressing and it hurts doesn't it. Our club is a mess. With the owner telling us Juric is here to stay, gut feeling is that we could go.from bad to worse. I can't see us coming back up next season. [Post edited 9 Feb 23:42]

I have to say, I am not sure about this manager. I agree that it was strange not to start with a striker. Surely Tall Paul was perfect to start against a physical Burnley side. He reminds me slightly of Puel. He's a bit snappy, a bit irritating. However, he has taken over a poor team, a bunch of players low in confidence, a club in chaos, and players wanting to leave. As you know, I am also fed up of keep swapping managers when ultimately in my opinion, the problem is the owners. [Post edited 9 Feb 23:31]

I'm not overly convinced with Dibling. He didn't do much today and couldn't break down Burnley's defence. He has missed quite a few chances in the PL too and hasn't scored many if any goals? However, I sense he is p!ssed off, playing in such a terrible team. [Post edited 8 Feb 20:59]

It is definitely time to start protesting and get Sport Republic Out. 2 relegations in 3 seasons, with a succession of terrible managers, tells us they are jokers. I can't see us coming straight back up again next season, with such a terrible hangover from this dreadful season. |
