Agree with that Southamptonfan. I suppose we've got to protect Leo and Larin (particularly Larin) so I can understand subbing them
Saturday is going to be another tough game for sure as Bristol City are flying as well and better away this season so far. A win against them would be a massive confidence boost.
Top two is achievable but is going to be tough. The biggest threat to that is the corrupt clowns at the FA |

I thought Schlotterbeck had another very good game and it's hard to believe he hasn't even been at the club for two weeks yet.
I'd like to see him and Abbott play alongside each other. I've a mate who's a Forest fan who rates him highly and I think Schlotterbeck could really bring him on |

ā¢ Under-21s: Permanent U21 players donāt count toward the 25-man limit.
ā¢ Loans: Any loan player, regardless of age, must be included in the 25-man squad. |

Thread | The FA charge against Tonda
at 12:19 7 Sep 2026
As I understand the independent FA disciplinary hearing to determine Tonda's punishment is scheduled to take place in mid-September but no date has been scheduled yet
WTF is taking so long? It smacks of incompetence by the FA as well as something a bit more sinister. Perhaps theyāre waiting to see how many points we are behind Middlesbrough
Anyone got any news? |

Luuk de Jong is a free agent. He's recovered from an injury which kept him out last season
Okay he's 36 but if we managed him like we did Stewart he could do a job. I reckon he'd take a pay-per-game deal
Career stats - 283 goals and 148 assists in 665 games |

Thatās exactly the point Iām trying to make Tonyfromdk
I can totally understand that people are unhappy with some of the performances so far and I agree too that at this stage it looks as if we havenāt got the players we needed to replace Harwood-Bellis and Stewart but itās early days yet for sure. Solak has been criticised for selling THB & Stewart but in reality neither wanted to stay. I agree we particularly need to get an experienced striker. Danny Ings is a free agent and might be worth a punt to bring on for Larin every game. Heās probably fitter than Stewart
But the criticism of Tonda on this board is ridiculous. He has a 59.6% win rate since joining the club and has only lost 3 games in the last 30 league matches yet he has a couple of dodgy performances and people are calling him a tinker man etc. Last season he had a 62.5% total win rate, which was better than Frank Lampard at Coventry with a 60.87% total win rate. This season he has a better points record than Nuno EspĆrito Santo and but for the 4 point deduction weād be sitting in 8th place above WHU on GD
The criticism is crazy |

Saintmark 1976 I was just trying to point out that game for game against the clubs weāve faced we have done better than last season by 4 points so far. I'm obviously aware of the 4 point deduction and had we not received that we'd currently sit 8th above WHU on goal difference so I just don't understand the mass of negative posts on this site.
Iām well aware that this is going to be a seriously tough season with the 4 point deduction and possibly the two strongest teams to be relegated for a long time in WHU & Wolves.
I canāt believe the reaction on this site because we havenāt been blowing sides away. Thereās been people suggesting Tonda should be sacked. Letās not forget we went on a 21 game unbeaten run last season and weāre 4 games unbeaten this season.
I agree we should have strengthened more but we have to give Tonda chance to stabilise with the new squad. Iām confident he will and here's another statistic - heās only lost 2 of our last 27 league games - and fans are criticising him. [Post edited 5 Sep 17:40]

If you compare this season's results with the corresponding results last season it makes an interesting read. If you substitute the Lincoln away score this season with the away score against the team that won League One the season before ie Birmingham City (if you follow me) it shows that against the same teams last season we've actually picked up four more points at this stage.
2025/26 results:
Watford 2-2 Saints ā 1 pt
Saints 1-2 Stoke ā 0 pts
Saints 0-0 Millwall - 1 pt
Birmingham 1-1 Saints - 1 pt
Birmingham (ie Lincoln this season) 1-1 Saints ā 1 Pt
2026/27 results:
Watford 2-1 Saints ā 0 pts
Saints 3-1 Stoke ā 3 pts
Saints 5-1 Millwall ā 3 pts
Birmingham 1-1 Saints ā 1pt
Lincoln 1-1 Saints ā 1 pt
Agreed it wasn't a great performance today and apart from the Millwall game we haven't played like we did in the 21 game unbeaten run last season but it's a changed squad and I'm confident Eckert will get results, so let's not overreact now and see how things are in a couple of monthsā time.
Okay we havenāt hit the form we would hope yet (excl Millwall) but we are now on a 5 match unbeaten run

Donāt get me wrong Iād have liked to have seen another striker but letās see how we do
I wouldnāt put Charles in the starting player bracket. Okay he scored a couple of important goals but he was a backup player in midfield
Okay Stewart was a good player last season but we were having to plan games around keeping him fit. Letās see how he does this season. In five games this season heās made one 81st minute sub appearance. The other 4 games he hasnāt even made the bench |

Summer signings:
Daniel Peretz, Cyle Larin, George Long, Lewis Dobbin, Divin Mubama, Keven Schlotterbeck, James Ward-Prowse and Zach Abbott
Iām happy with that for now.
Plus out of our star players we kept Scienza, Azaz, Jander and Downes and only lost THB
