I suggest that you read the Southampton Daily Echo comments section. That should give you a fair idea of how toxic the relationship is between the fans and Pellegrino. They (Saints fans) considered last night's fixture as an absolute must win game - and they didn't. Cue the moment to get at the manager at the final whistle.
It all makes our protests against Sami Hyypia seem like a Women's Institute squabble in comparison.

Many thanks. What idiots!
'must win game for Southampton' + 'didn't win' = The end of the world for the Albion on NSC.

strong and stable with me, or...
The Southampton fans to the left of us at the end when they were the last ones out remonstrating with their stewards that we were chanting nasty things at them – now that was funny.

Only for some! The rest of us are made of sterner stuff.

After last night's match my wife and her Saints STH friend both commented on how negative (to say the least) saints fans are..... even in the good times on occasion - and that a trip to the AMEX, where she has been with me on a number of occasions, is a much more positive supporter experience.
She predicted last night they would get booed off at half-time, which they did.
maybe there is something in this "Together" lark after all.

I was surprised at the amount of booing Soton fans gave their team. Ok, you can expect it at HT/FT, but during the game when play goes backwards? I know we get a bit shouty when things don't happen for us sometimes, but I'd never boo.
At 0-1 down: Booooooooooooooooooooooooooo
All of the first half: Booooooooooooooooooooooooo / **** off [insert player name] / FFS you **** / etc
Every misplaced pass: Booooooooooooooooooooooooo
Half time: Booooooooooooooooooooooooooooo
First ten minutes of second half: BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO - going mental when a Saints player held onto it for 2 seconds, or passed sideways
For five minutes after the equalizer: "We love Sowfamton, we do, we love Sowfamton..."
Rest of the game: Boooooooooooooooooooooooo
Final whistle: BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
What a miserable way to 'enjoy' your football.
The natives are VERY restless in Southampton this morning

People seem to have poor memories, we had a manager who was taking us down to League 1 and we were making placards and booing

So am I after eating one of their burgers.

Seems that both sets of fans are lamenting dropping two points against shit opposition.
But their laments are more lamenting than our laments.

Ha I was at the back on the left and as everyone was waiting to go down the stairs those Saints fans were giving everyone around a lot of amusement. The more wound up they got the more stick they took. Then we ended up walking along the road next to them, wearing Brighton colours, and they didn't say a thing despite gesturing that they were hoping to beat us up in the stadium. Jokers!
