9.5 If we can somehow eke out a 0-0 here and then beat Burnley I think we're just about still alive. Feels mega unlikely though.

Yes, he's inherited a poor squad in rotten shape who've been sat on their arses four days a week; two years of Bruce damage and fourteen years of Ashley's shit to repair. The glossy videos of innovative training sessions, in every day, coherent press conferences, forward thinking attacking style, a proper coach... And yet none of it means shit so far, because on a match day he couldn't pick his own nose. Darlow over Dubravka, Krafth and Ritchie away at Arsenal and now Clark over Fernandez. Wonder whether he'll sit ASM down for Gayle next week? I've a horrible feeling he's listening to Jones, these are the sort of shit picks he was making a few weeks ago. Time for him to start earning his money and stop with these mental decisions which are directly costing us.

If Lascelles was any kind of a captain he'd get down the dressing room now and absolutely deck the fucker.

What the fuck was he thinking of picking Clark? Absolutely brainless.

Should never play for the club again. Fucking useless shit cunt

Irish cunt. Thick useless clogger

Clark over Fede is a baffling call. Otherwise looks good. Please win.

I've never heard it called that before but a very similar feeling exists with Newcastle fans and has done for years Sheffield United broke their duck against us last January after about 20 games Derby got their only PL win of an 11pt season against us (4/11 pts total from us) Not to mention the countless bang average players whose highlight reels against Newcastle make them look like Pele

Everyone I've chatted to about the match tonight seems to be properly shitting their duds, this has a real make-or-break feel about it. I think a 2-1 win, a Norwich goal coming late on and us just about seeing it out.

Got plenty of legs, surprised we haven't tabled a bid

Carrick's at the wheel... of the Man U Metro!

Aye I'd have him in the side at present if he was fit. Shite on the ball but he can defend and nae other cunt can right now.

You'd think he would have realised by now that we get absolutely fuck all from referees (on pitch or video assistant) and trying to win a pen is a monumental waste of time.

8 for me. 6pts in the next two puts us right back in the mixer. 4pts just about keeps us within distance. Lose either or draw both and I think even a big spending January won't be enough.

Lascelles and Ritchie both being banned for Tuesday is the best thing about today's result. They're both fucking shite, absolutely no use whatsoever, not as leaders and certainly not as footballers.

O'Nien months

Least of our worries at the moment, but... Anyone else feel like he's starting to get into an annoying habit of trying to win a pen rather than just fucking shooting?

Ritchie's a bag of shit, beyond a joke now his continued presence in the side. Lewis needs to have a good game Tuesday and keep him out cos he costs us at least one goal every single week.

Utter shite today from Twatwell. Every single borderline decision to the home side, a proper prick.

He came on fairly late in the Man City 2-2 game (Beye wrongly sent off by Rob cunting Styles) and looked like he'd just come off the back of a three-day bender, was when Kinnear was in charge, may be that you're referring to?

Landed in 5/7 games. Needed a Bournemouth corner, a Swansea corner and fucking three from Barnsley for £610.

Free fiver on 3+ corners and 10+ booking pts for all the Championship teams in action tonight.

Cockney Brent could be for the push if they don't win string a few wins together. Got a horrible feeling they'll tempt Warnock for one last job, give him a chance to end his career on a promotion, then aim for a higher calibre appointment in the Championship. Hope not cos I think he'd get them up & I do like Uncle Neil.
