Considering the halftime score, I'll take that.
Nothing great will ever be achieved without great men, and men are great only if they are determined to be so. For glory gives herself only to those who have always dreamed of her.

That's an incredible point from our perspective.
Completely different halves!
Could've even won it if we weren't so bang average.
Rohl continues to work his magic.
Piggies lost too see Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!
Tough grinds coming up in quick succession against Derby and Preston.

Not being negative, but 8 of the bottom 9 lost, so we move a bit further away from being drawn into a battle down there.

Owell it wasn't to be but that feels like a win anyway and it's cemented our position for another week at least !
If only we wouldnt come out sleeping ffs surely DR has to start thinking about players with ability like chalboh and ingleson starting over Gassame Lowe and Johnson .
Valery will be a forced change whatever against Preston as he's picked up 5 cards so I suppose we'll have to play Valentin there as Bernard also sits out another game !
In all a happy boxing day as the pigs lost ..my old man went to that today so I'll be calling him later to take the piss !!
Preston the most boringest team on the planet up next ..I hope DR took notes from the first game and doesn't fall into the same trap ..we are going to need ball winners and scrapers in this fixture forget pace !!

Agree about Johnson, never liked his attitude at times. Gassama was excellent today, he has certainly improved this season. Lowe/Smith/Ugbo, take your pick depending on the opposition. Maybe none of them should play, put Windass up front and center and he knows how to get into positions to get goals and bring in Chalobah to let Bannan and Charles get forward more.
Not sure about Valery and the bookings, didn't the 5 bookings end a week ago?
The 5 yellow card ban was up to the 19th game, its now a ban for 10 by the 32nd game, so no ban for Valery.

Second half of last season plus the first half of this one sees us with 70 points!!! Not quite PO form but certainly in with a shout of them!!

With the shower of shit deadwood we still have and the pathetic clown of an owner who has stopped investing it's little short of a miracle this manager with a proper infructura could go all the way to the top .
We start 2025 with him I think it will also be a miracle if we start 2026 with him ..forget Southampton he's going to get poached by a club like spurs or west ham before long !

It's clear what Rohl is capable of with the correct tools.
Luckily, he views us as a great opportunity to prove himself. Chansiri must do what he can to back him.
To be fair to him, he pulled out a few Million for Ugbo who has given no return. That isn't DC's fault.
Rohl's going to be forced to rotate with games on Sunday, Wednesday & Saturday.
Its another 4 games in 9 days thanks to the governing bodies.
Manure and Citeh

Derby beat wank Brom with brunt in charge ..never liked him or Whelan wankers !
I get the ugbo gig but surely now Chansiri the clown must listen to Rohl and I'd hope he says it like it should be said in the words of these players are shit wr must sell them.you f@cking retarded child ..it's no good hanging onto broken goods even if he makes one mistake from 4 players that's the business of football even know though it's a loss, that's football! some work others don't but know when to move on ....you get rid and hope the next time it works out ! clownSiri holds on to them like a pair of shit trainers
Liverpool though I can't think of anything worse and Chelsea gave up today ...o wait a minute thunderbird arteta is just as bad ...and there's no way I'm rooting for the scaby forest Jesus it's not good is it !
