Ole had no credentials for that job whatsoever. Man United were a giant club when I was young, had massive ambition, which even Newcastle tried to match. Not now though. They are suffering from the same dampening of expectations as we are, albeit at a different level. Let Ole see out the season, sack him and get a top manager. Give Potch the full backing, sell of all the shite and you will be back in the top four this time next year. If Ole starts next season, he wont see Christmas.

Be crazy to play ASM IMO. Stick him on the bench perhaps. We should be able to beat Oxford without him.

Thought he was going to be class. Was even made vice captain IIRC. Shame he was made of glass.

I was 6 years old, ON, so I really cant recall.

I remember when I was little going to my first match. Won 5-1 against Villa in 1994. Fans were singing "Are you watching big fat Ron!" Ron Atkinson was their manager. That was when we had proper fans and a good manager. When you are that age, it's a real experience. Once you have been a few times the novelty wears off somewhat. Anyway, hopefully Bentaleb will get a game and we play some football.

I've always had Flo down as our best centre half. Schar close second.

Forgive me for I have sinned.... Taking the bairn to this one. Hes 6 and footy mad, it's not his fault Mike Ashley is a cunt. I dont want to ruin it for him. It was 17 quid in the fat man's pocket but it's a worthwhile sacrifice against my morals. First time I've been in 18 months.

Funny, I noticed it after 5 minutes too. Why is it that Shelvey and Hayden play in front of the back 3 yet the the Longstaffs are told to play 15 yards further up the pitch? Happens every time we do this.

FA cup.

Has to start against Oxford surely? Put him and Matty together and see if we can play some football.

Ive just read that they have offered Bowen a new contract and that Bowen has hired one of Bruce's mates as his advisor. Sounds a desperate situation from Hull's point of view.

We will probably get Bowen TBF. He was rumoured as wanting to come here months ago, which suggests there has been contact between us and the player. Hull will know this, and it leaves them in a vulnerable position. Did I read that he is out of contract in the summer? In which case, they will have to cash in. We were prepared to pay 12m for Murphy, so I can see them doing a deal somehow. Our main worry is fucking about while a more ambitious club takes him from under our noses.

Presumably we will wait until he is over his injury before deciding to sign him permanently. Obviously hes incapable of passing a medical for 6 months or whatever. Everything else should be in place. They would be mad not to sign him. They wont get better value for a left back.

Hopefully he was just Sounessed and unlucky to have a cunt of a manager.

Prolly Rafa.

Go and have a look around. Then pick Sunderland.

He has to face way more shots than the average PL keeper and is constantly under threat from corners or balls into the box because of our deep lying defence. The defenders trust him, he trusts them, hes saved us loads this season and doesn't seem to get injured. Hes a good keeper and one of our only positions we dont need to worry about. Let's see how Woodman develops, if hes better than Dubz I will be surprised

He had two chances. Did excellent from a difficult header and was unlucky not to score. Then did awful from 6 yards, a poacher puts them away. The bigger issue is that he only had two chances. Nothing is created for him.

He actually had a really quiet game. Great assist though.

Have a look at the second video down of the flag going like a javelin.

Kids a fucking lethal weapon with that flag man.

I actually thought his subs were decent at the time. Shelvey was absolutely knackered and Krafth should be euthanized. The two Longstaffs brought some legs back on and saved us from defeat. Thought Sean was poor, Matty was the difference. Yeah but I think Shelvey wouldnt have had the legs even to cover. It was the sensible move. Love Matty like

Its precisely BECAUSE this is Rafas set up that it annoys me. Yet we still have LESS possession and fewer chances and Steve and his cronies lap up the praise that Rafa didnt get. Rafa got slaughtered for the same (better) stuff.
