Play better you useless mackem cuntbags

FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK

Why do Villa's speculative crosses at least look borderline threatening while ours excite me about as much as an opposition throwin

Man I don't even recognize the names of most of the Villa team. If they stay up and we don't

Never mind, I can.

Hey, we're level on points with this pile of shit right? Maybe they could still get relegated instead?

Fuck this shit

The true test will be seeing whether you can celebrate a Sunderland goal.

Fak you mod who changed the title.

IMO more players would stay than you'd think if we were relegated, but only because we're terrible pessimists and assume that everyone even slightly useful would fuck off. Lot of players we thought had no chance of keeping stayed last time around. (Colo, Enrique, Jonas) Some who we thought wouldn't get a chance anywhere else were bought for money (Duff, Edgar) Things rarely go as expected.

Nah sorry, I'm not on about 'apologists' who have had a genuine opinion and could back it up. They're completely entitled to their opinion and entitled to change it. I'm on about people who have shown up all year to do nothing but openly mock others' concern despite several things staring us all in the face. A few of them hide their online status. Trolls will be trolls, but I think a fair lot of people who had reasonable opinions get painted with the same brush in times like this.

Depends if the players have down tools. If they have then he has to go now and hopefully that is enough for them to start fighting again. Yesterday looked like a few of them had had enough and want him gone, or is that reading too much in to it? (Genuine question btw open to everyone to answer) I think yesterday was enough for some of them. Let's not forget that some of these players have won championships and have genuine career ambitions, not pissing about trying to get a point at home when in a serious relegation battle. The "Thank God the motherfucker is gone" effect might just be enough. There was a significant momentary uptick in performances when Shearer came in despite the poor results. Short term burst is all we need really.

I don't want Redknapp. He would be the manager equivalent to signing Damien Duff.

Seriously don't think there's any need for the inquisition on the "Pardew apologists." They were just wrong, like a lot of us were. Everyone on here supported Pardew to some degree at some point and there's really no purpose to branding people because they turned on him a little later And if it were me I certainly wouldn't show my face on this forum knowing that about a half-dozen people were waiting eagerly to use me as a punching bag

If we can't get something against a QPR team that has been as utterly shit as us or worse all year and has nothing to play for and couldn't even motivate themselves when they had stuff to play for anyway, we deserve to go down.

He plays quite well when we're good and plays terribly when we're shit. It's not rocket science. He's clearly one of the symptoms, not one of the causes.

Taylor's better than Williamson and is the only player we've got who's guaranteed to give a shit until the bitter end. Certainly wouldn't drop him unless Colo decides to play again.

If the players have given up to the extent they showed today we might as well start packing our bags. Need to break them out of their stupor somehow.

Generally I hate the term "he can't be any worse than..." because it's usually clearly untrue and is used to justify wanting to put a 16 year old to replace a solid but unspectacular performer like Simpson. But we're certainly at that point now. What's worse than a 0-9 home aggregate against two mid table (at absolute best) sides? What's the worst that can happen? We lose three games? That's looking a dead cert anyway. Even if it's Beardsley or Carver, we've reached a point where we have to roll the dice imo. * 2 midtable sides missing their best (well, I actually thought ONLY) goalscorers. Sorry. Cheers. I don't know what I'd do now, I'm trying to pretend this isn't really happening at this point. I think sacking him would be bad, keeping him would be bad. Either way we're relying on Wigan not to seize the day IMO, we're too far down the line to think or expect we'll get more than 1 or 2 points from the remaining games. Maybe just sacking him now and hope the players react positively enough to that that it will offset having no manager until the end of the season is the gamble we need to take. I'm certainly leaning in that direction.

Let's have West Ham have twenty shots on goal but nick a point because they can't hit any of them. Including Carroll missing a sitter from three years out. I don't even care about football anymore. Just let us luck out like motherfuckers and get something from this.

Let's just get ridiculous lucky for once please.

We've successfully maneuvered ourselves into a point where we can't even appoint a new manager because it's not clear what league we'll be in next season. It's physically impossible to sack him immediately unless we believe that having no manager would be better than Pardew for three games. That might even be true at this point, of course.

Maybe we shouldn't worry about losing players in the summer. Maybe they're actually all shit.

Die in a fire immediately. Do not pass Go. Do not collect 200 dollars.

Yes, because obviously Guthrie would have been completely immune to the drop in form that's afflicted just about everyone this season.
