I'd be tempted to pick Campbell if fit and move Williamson to RB until Taylor or Simpson get fit. Perch may turn out to be an ok squad player, but he's just a liability atm.

He's about 27 and a poor footballer. This isn't going to change.

Lovenkrands ran onto Carroll's flick-ons about 3 times last season. Lovenkrands is neither a good partner for a Carroll nor a player who'll have an impact from the bench.

I've just read that Blackpool had more possession. Laughable. If that isn't acknowledged in Hughton's saturday teamsheet; he isn't our man.

I think we'll probably pay a few times this season for having one PL standard striker. It's embarrassing that Lovenkrands is still involved. No other PL squad would go near such a horribly limited player.

People are probably more pissed off that manager isn't learning from his mistakes than the fact we've thrown away 3 points.

Agree completely with GT. Nolan will grab the odd headline but will generally be a terrible hinderance to team play.

4-1 against Pompey most certainly wasn't a worse result than this one. Pompey were a good side at the time, Blackpool are shite.

Yet nobody has mentioned a worse result.

Yeah, and we lost, what on earth is your point?

Bringing on a shit footballer ahead of a good one is good man management? Right.

How on earth is a loss to Fulham worse than a loss to Blackpool? The need for points was a lot greater but the isolated result isn't nearly as bad.

I didn't say 'performance'- I said 'result'. Fulham and Liverpool don't compare to this.

Beaten at home by the worst team in the league and a rival. I can't think of a result worse than that since I've been a fan.

I can understand the overreactions. This is essentially our worst result in almost two decades. Too many of those players have no place in a PL squad let alone a starting Xl. Hughton will have to learn and find his bollocks fast.

I cannot believe that he brought on Lovenkrands ahead of Ben Arfa. Is he an imbecile or what?

Just how stupid is Hughton. This wanker was our weak link in the championship.

Jesus christ.

No he won't. HBA will definetely start. No chance.

Has it ever even happened before? Derby. Wake the fuck up, it was 2-2.

Has it ever even happened before?

Lovenkrands?

What do you expect from him?

This is horrific, i'm in an internet cafe that should be condemned, no sound, slow as fuck, filthy beggars either side. Keep the updates coming!

Who cares as if we miss him... We will if he gets sent off.
