Yup, we've played reasonably well given who we're up against. Two nightmare deflections, can't make it up

I've suffered through worse than you without breaking that seal yet. You're making quite the rise up the shite rankings though, fairly inspiring

How about swapping boards? I hear ToonTastic has an opening for a relentless bore

Can these deflections please fuck off? We've played as well as could be expected, the bad luck is just fucking galling

Would take a relegation if it meant 5-6 of our shittest posters had to delete their accounts and fuck off forever. Snap your hand off tbh

I'll bet worthless was active after we knocked them out of the league cup. Definitely not one of the "rocks up when we're struggling" crowd

This ref team is having a fucking nightmare already.

That's so frustrating, we've stood up to them well. Annoying, massive task to turn it around

Step forward Sean the Slayer

We've won games against this lot with weaker teams. Will be a massive ask and unlikely, but not a foregone conclusion.

Fair enough tbh, he's not gotten much of a chance here despite the GK issues we've had. Would've liked to see him over Dubs a bit more just to see if he's better at sweeping up, but appreciate Howe will have made that call based on seeing him in training every day. Shame really, would've loved him to have a redemption arc here

Magpies flying towards a Blue Moon? Weird af though yeah

I'm a bit sad he's not got Tripps there to look after him

Thought it might be a joke, checked the posting history. It's never a joke

Lad. Well deserved

International break couldn't have come at a better time really. Hope he doesn't go this round, his time will come - 2.5 weeks of rest and back for West Ham would be mint.

Glad we're back to Pessimism = Grown-up. Feels comfortingly familiar.

Gutted this didn't work out for him. He seems to exclusively take on clubs in the mire these days. I'm sure with a bit of stability he could still do a job. Not at the top anymore, but he's a great tactician. Love the man tbh, eternally grateful. We wouldn't have Howe now if it wasn't for him

Careful now. Describing our owners as level headed isn't going to raise the temperature. You need to throw in "ruthless", "cutthroat" etc. That'll get em going

You're just saying there are questions to be asked. I get it

Yes, absolutely.

Yeah Gol, wtf man, thought you were cool

We had a wobble last season around the cup final and turned that around. The start of his reign was shit for months and everyone said he wasn't up to it but he turned it around. I think there are mitigating factors to why this has been so bad for as long as it has, but he's absolutely shown he can turn a bad streak around imo. It's fair to doubt that or to have worries obviously, I just think it'll work out in the long run with him, he's got previous for leading us on runs

You happy to come back to this at the end of the season? I bet he does.
