Not bringing him early enough smacks of the 'trying to get by/not invest any money' mentality that Ashley has brainwashed through the club. The difference a month would have made would have been immense and, in financial terms, it would only have a been a few hundred grand, max. Shameful. His inevitable departure is the biggest missed opportunity of the Ashley era. Incredibly, we've snatched a defeat from the jaws of victory in a way only NUFC and our feckless players can. I think the fact that so many managers/coaches have failed to get a response from these cunts says so much about the fundamental cultural problems at the club. In particular that these knackers have been sold the dream of 'come to NUFC and be like Yohan Cabaye, he went to a proper club' is so fucking screwed up, it's untrue. That strikes at the heart of Ashley's ownership, that these chancers, bluffers and mercenaries are 'convinced' to come here on the basis of leaving. They're all coming with the wrong mentality. At least under FFS/SJH the signings were all signing up to men who had a pride in the club/region and wanted to compete. If you can only talk to these new players about how much money they'll all make when they leave it's no wonder they're so fucking half hearted on the pitch. They win, either way. They achieve their ends. They go, we stay. They benefit, we suffer. It's the most one sided relationship in sport this NUFC.

Would be staggered if Everton sacked him. They stuck with Moyes through much worse imho.

Exactly right. No chance whatsoever.

Good shout. Agree.

None of those clubs had the same amount of mercenaries as us though. We've been sold to all of them as a stepping stone. Even QPR had the old 'London Airports' excuse.

yeah, except us.

When he first signed literally everything he touched turned to gold. Now it all turns to shit. Clearly doesn't want to be here.

Perez is one of the easiest to sell and one of the only ones whose value hasn't been hammered. He'll be off.

We battered them but WBA are a f*cking horrible team and we couldn't break them down. If they keep Pulis I hope they get relegated next season, they're even worse than Stoke when he was there. I think we're pretty much nailed on to go down now. Happy days They are still the worst team I've seen at St James' all season.

He's been a fundamental problem for years.

God no. Will never watch another game if Mrs Doubtfire comes here. Anyone they get will be depressing as f*** tbh. They should move heaven and earth to keep benitez. Too right they should. If not him they need to go for a young up and coming manager. Will probably be someone s*** I've no basis for this, but I'd rather Gary neville than a Pearson, Bruce type. Totally agree. He'd be my number one target when Rafa goes. At least he'd offer some hope of sustainable building.

God no. Will never watch another game if Mrs Doubtfire comes here. Anyone they get will be depressing as fuck tbh. They should move heaven and earth to keep benitez. This is it. They won't pay him though. They'll do some bullshit analysis and realise that the average manager pay is £2.35 a week and bring in some twat for £2.34 to prove a point. All the time overlooking the fact that just flogging one mediocre player would Rafa and his team and virtually guarantee promotion. Sad times this.

He's been mentally playing in another clubs colours since December. Wouldn't be surprised if he's one of the first out of the door tbh. Should imagine his agent has a deal lined up.

This should be the opportunity to hound Ashley out. Instead the stadium will still be practically full of happy clappers cheering to the names of Colback and Saylor being read out.

I said the other day that I think we'll go for Gary Neville.

Dominated by the sounds of it, Leicester next... Yeah. Statistically mullered them. Shame they didn't convert it into points

Yeah, I actually said that in the post It wasn't in response to your post.

Think they needed a win today.

Of course he won't stay man The dickheads in charge wouldn't pay him the money for one.

He's not brilliant. Never has been. Never will be.

He's only played two good games since he joined mate. Debut and the following home game.

He starts with Tiote and Cisse. Both of whom have wanted away for three years.

His starting selection cost us today. Terrible. If it was SMc he'd be getting slated.

Carver has confirmed that he's applied for the villa job
