QPR are perfectly capable of beating us on their day, hell Grimsby U8's could put up a decent fight against our lot. However I think it'll depend how they take relegation after today, play with the shackles off or flipflop football. I think Hull are all but gone now, Spurs is a winable game, they are terrible at the moment but they won't beat Manure. 2 draws or 1 win will see us safe. After this weekend I feel a lot more confident we'll survive, no thanks to Carver, Hull are just even worse than us. We'll be safe, on game 37 a MA wet dream.

In an ideal world he'd be replaced with someone much better, but we all know this isn't an ideal world, it's Ashley's world and he's never going to replace all the dross we have at the moment. With that in mind, even though his best days are over, he is much higher up the pecking order imo than a lot of the other dross we have. I can't speak for everyone but I'm not saying keep him at all costs, more that he should be kept over other players if not just for the fact he has some pride in NUFC and is a positive influence, unlike his fellow cunt-ry man Colo.

I'd tend to agree with you Ian, especially if we do end up being relegated, I think his experience from last time round would help us immensely. Plus he's one of the very few positive influences in the team, you can't buy that.

£2m aught to cover it I'd think, if we give them £2m and pay his wages for a year I think that'd be a cracking deal!

Us against them as it stands. Ever get a sense of Deja vu?

Because it's aways aching from all the licking

An organised West Brom side against a toothless Newcastle, 0-0 is probably the best we can hope for.

Quite fancy Burnley to beat Hull today, they have to if they want to stay up and Hull won't have the bottle to deal with that. That, at the moment may be our only saving grace.

Carver's only got himself to blame, Pardew was clueless as a manager, but he had enough sense not to publicly slate his own players. Without any managerial nous the players are all you have got. Except Ben Arfa

Sorry if giggs:

NO! His head looks like a manscaped nut.

John Carver rank? Why yes, yes he is! Which glue sniffing nut job went for 9 points from the last 3 games btw

Must have the world's worst stammer if it took them 2 days to have that conversation.

Charnley: "So John, can you stop being a cretin for 3 matches?" Carver: "errrm... yes." Charnley: "Aye, that'll do, carry on." Meanwhile let's not bother looking for a coach so all the decent ones get a job before we have chance to talk to them. "We've learned from our mistakes." Yeah alright then, bunch of fucking wasters.

This is why I seek solace in here, can't be bothered with the know-nowts and imbaciles that play into his hands time after time. My barber just said to me "your biggest mistake was getting rid of Pardew." "No our biggest mistake was not replacing him, this run of form isn't new it's just a little worse than Pardew would have done." People still genuinely haven't got a fucking clue.

You actually watch us regularly? I've only seen maybe 3 of our 7 back to back defeats. 4 at a push. So many better things to do with your weekend. You can tell as it's been 8. I have watched 1 and no highlights, no more fucks are to be given.

very much this. I'd barely class myself as a supporter these days, more someone that has a more than healthy interest for historical reasons. It's like the abusive husband beating his wife and taking her for granted crying for her to come back because he can't live without her when she finally gets the balls to walk. Too late fuckstick.

Would hope we would look to hire someone more inspiring than McClaren, can't blame the guy, he's still trying to rebuild his image after the wally with the brolly and the whole Shteeve thing. We're hardly a club he can galvanise his comeback with, poisoned chalice if ever there was one. Probably the best decision all round tbh, he'd have been hounded out pretty sharpish by the fans. Ashley has a rather large egg on his face also being turned down by McClaren, ffs.

His recent performances suggest the last thing we should do is leave things as they are. Down tools? Aye, I think that ship sailed a couple of seasons ago.

Definitely a soft 10 for me, mathematically it's not that hard a job to get clear especially with our run in, but in reality the Charvernator hasn't got a chance of picking any more points up. Even with 1 draw out of the remaining 3 matches the teams below us only need to match our tally with our horrendous GD.

Getting away from the wife?

Clearly Ashley doesn't give a monkeys chuff, if we go down he'll just add it to the debt already owed to him which will mean more money for him if/when he sells up making it harder for someone to buy us.

Bye bye Ashley you sack of shit, may your Sports Direct United swirl down the shitpan of obscurity.

I can't see Shteeve joining us in this predicament, why would he come here and risk being in the Championship next season with a worse team than the one he has at the moment? It would be in his best interest to wait and see how things pan out. At least at Derby he gets to call most of the shots, here he gets dictated to, given players to work with and left on the front line to fight all their battles with a toothpick.

One things for certain it's brought our situation to light, have had some good conversations on FB today with fans of other clubs who are now seeing what's wrong up here. Carver needs to go today and give someone a week to instill some belief and spirit into the team.
