Fuck me, if you've got a widescreen monitor then 2 minutes on that page is enough to give you a brain aneurysm.

Kinnear leaving changes nothing. Not one thing. That statement from the club showed utter contempt of the fans. "There will be no further comment". Well fine, there'll be no further money from me.

This is simply on the back of the season ticket cancellations gents. Ashley's arse has dropped out, I reckon, and he's done the cheapest thing he can to try to resolve the problem. Resigned my arse. Still: GET IN!

No point protesting. Just don't go to the games, and don't set foot in Ashley's tacky charva clothes shops. Oh, and don't have Sky either. Get rid of that. Don't even need it in this day and age.

Ben Arfa had 2 men marking him at all times when he got the ball. If anyone had bothered to support him, we could have made something of that. But we didn't, and just hung him out to dry.

Cisse was injured, allegedly. Still, Ameobi shouldn't be allowed anywhere near our team. I can't believe there's not a better option available, even in the reserves or U18s.

The fat b****** was lining up his excuses for him. should have had the balls to say, "are you blaming the fans for that defeat?" Exactly. And "Why are you laughing? Do you think something's funny?"

He could easily say that the club's mentality of not wanting to develop as a club doesn't fit with his desire to want to win every game, every cup and to compete in Europe. I don't see how that could possibly ruin his credability. Resigning should, in theory, be very attractive to new employers. Saves them having to pay compo to you if you fuck up. Baffled why it would be seen as a negative.

Sucked into the occasion? We didn't even fucking turn up. Didn't even look like they knew there was a match on half of the time.

Hopefully committing Seppuku. I might almost forgive him then. Almost.

Has this shitstain done his post match dribble yet? Anyone managed to translate it into comprehensible English?

This is utterly shit. Disgusting stuff.

Glad they've not been allowed to play in red and white with white shorts. We never get away with just changing shorts, about time they didn't either. Terribly minor gripe, I know.

If we finish 8th, I assume we get an open top bus parade?

What's disgusting is that not once does he apologise for being a useless, incompetent shit stain for failing to replace Cabaye. Reckon he was up all night writing (dictating) this instead of trying to get us a decent player in. Cunt.

Ben Arfa's got 3 already and we're only just past Christmas. We'll be fine.

Is it possible to tick all the boxes?

Saves on wages, don't forget.

Luckiest man alive tbh, gets to fly around the world watching whatever game he wants knowing that we won't sign anyone he recommends so he has absolutely no pressure to get it right. Probably get a fair old whack to do it as well. It's better than my job anyway. By "Fly around the world" you mean "Fly to France". I agree it's still not a bad job though. Must have been to Holland and Germany for De Jong, he's a f***ing jet setter man! I reckon I've been to more diverse destinations that Graham Carr last year.

So terribly true. Seems we can sell players between now and 11pm, but it's impossible to bring them in. Tells you everything you need to know. Not that we didn't already know it anyway...

Well I agree he's not back in the black yet. Certainly not.

That profit is just on transfers. There's other things to consider (TV money, gate revenues, player wages etc) that may make that £45m larger or smaller. But given that other clubs without rich benefactors can splash out way more than us on transfers without going bust, I'd suggest that it will be larger than £45m. But that's irrelevant. I'm not saying he's had his money back, I'm just saying we're very profitable the way we're being run at the moment. And that this will be appealing to someone like Ashley. I actually think he should take his money back, that he should be repaid. I certainly don't expect him to plough endless funds into us like some do just because he's rich. But he shows an astonishing lack of ambition and is putting profit before literally everything else. That is not only s*** to us as fans, it's unnecessary because if we're just properly run rather than run into the ground, he'll get his money back anyway.

6 or 7 of the clubs with a better spend than us have probably been in the Championship during that time frame as well. OK, without our massive earners, admittedly, but without 52000 bums on seats either. But either way, there's arguments and counter arguments over exactly what our profit is or should be, but ultimately that league table is a fucking disgrace for a club of our size.

I'm not saying anything of the sort. I'm saying the club has almost certainly made a massive profit in that time. I have no idea whether that money is in the bank or in his trousers, but it's there for him to take if and when he wants as he owns the club lock and stock. I find it impossible to believe we have not made a significant profit given the massive disparity between our income and others from transfers and the fact that we're not a small club in the league either.
