Sadly, I'd have to agree. We're going to have to get him out of the way sooner or later, if it's got to be a brit then it may as well be Al

Won't be McLaren. We're going to end up paying compensation through the nose for Huges or Redknapp, half the fans will grumble about it and never take to them, the other half will wear unconvincing smiles and say they need time in a manner that implies they themselves do not believe it, we'll go through a shit spell and pay them off.

Sam dug his own grave, no-one else. But that doesn't mean sacking him was the right choice. Time will tell.

Sounds like at best we're talking about a sideways step, some unremarkable Brit who we hope might last until Shearer but will end up paying off after a year. To add to whatever we'll have to pay off their current club.

Right, gone from excited to dispondent. Don't care who it is now, there's no-one in ther remaining catagories who will last longer than Sam.

Would Redknapp be Allerdyce MkII, Roeder MkIII or Souness MkIV? I'm losing track now.

The triumphant return of Glen Roeder.

Jol Shearer

Right, I'm going to walk past St James on the way to work and go undercover as a mong to get on TV. Then I'll cast off my cunning disguise and say "Please not fucking Shearer!" before they realise their mistake and cut the feed.

If there's a top class manager in the wings, then it's an excellent and bold decision. If it's Shearer or some no-mark, panic stations as far as I'm concerned.

I think I speak for everyone when I say HOLY JESUS SHITTING FUCKING CHRIST. Really wasn't expecting that. Can't say I'm not happy to see the back of him but we'd better have a cracking replacement sitting with all his shit in boxes on Barrack Road as we speak, because if we're going manager hunting now you'd have to be a Grade A Fuckwit to take this job at the moment. Better to get rid sooner rather than later in my opinion though, bollocks to his five year plan.

Lets not get ahead of ourselves lads. We've got to consider losing to Stoke before we can start preparing to lose to Arsenal.

The Liverpool Echo has a predictably different version

Negative football, negative forums.

We'd never sell Barton,we'd be better off turning him in and claiming the reward.

Reminds me of when Roeder was in full on "Glen Roeder doesn't make excuses but..." mode and was pre-emptively blaming defeats on Steven Carr being injured...

Maybe it's like video game scores where 70% means utter shit.

Bloody hell, if everyone was averaging a 7 there let's hope no-one has an off day next weekend. What's our record defeat so far, 9-0 against Newport or something? Wind up, surely

Could have left work ten minutes ago if I wasn't watching this shite

So if it is shameful then what is it for Everton? Or even Liverpool against a debt ridden Luton and can only manage a draw? Liverpool did score. Everton rested their big names. We're pretty much full strength and have looked like this for weeks.

Can't be arsed with a replay either, don't want these braindead throwbacks having a jolly jaunt up here.

Come on Zog, get me £17 on first scorer.

Lucky not to be two or three down...
