Which makes it more non understandable. They are relegated, should stick with their manager who took them up?

I would take him for Hurzler
Did a good job last season, and the second half at the Amex the other week.
Good luck to him … now spend some time enjoying the money.
Three owners/fanbases will still be crying next May.

Yes, you're right.
'Inevitable' is probably a better fit and where I was aiming with the comment.

Terrible Saints team, although they would have beaten us if it wasn’t for that contentious VAR decision.
No good manager will want this job. Certain relegation.

Agree with everything here with the exception of the last bit. Wolves have conceded 40 so far this season compared with Southampton's 36.
And last season after 16 games, Sheffield United had scored 12 but conceded 41, so a GD of -29 and even worse despite being on 8 points then.
But your overall point still stands. The style of playing out from the back punishes Southampton virtually every game. They're effectively down already.

The trust Fab team erase all this crap out of their memory banks. We got out played by f***ing Southampton at home and they can’t see a problem with that.
Well, they've bought players they want to sell in a few years, not players that keep them up this year.
Its a club with the ambition to be profitable. They're likely to keep playing "entertaining" football. Taylor Harewood-Bellis pretending to be a future resale back to City rather than stopping the ball from going into goal is a side effect of their overall way of working.
Tony said "lets stay up first and do the fancy player development stuff later", but Southampton wanted to go with the latter first and foremost and it has left them with a squad with no chance of staying up regardless of football brand.

Bad weekend for old Varndeanians Russell Martin and Lewis Dunk
That's definitely a counting thread pic!

Or is it just blow my ?
Whatever, the answer is yes please.
Comes across as a bit of a dick IMO.
Did well for Southampton in getting them up, out of his depth in the top league.

I see and know i have a problem with IBS, sometimes i can’t help shitting the bed
I thought they played OK.
Albeit I did miss the first 4 goals.
I was making a cup of tea.
Yeah makes sense.
"Our defence is leaky, lets bring in the Southampton manager to fix it".
This.
I mean FFS, the level of overreaction is just silly.
Tell you what, let’s bring back Hyypia….
