are you shitting me?

It's not knee-jerk to suggest that selecting Sels was an abysmal decision.

this is rich from the man who does nowt but piss and moan about Mitrovic whenever the bloke dares to go near a football pitch.

He's good cover in this league but I fear the stat where we win and he plays is conning Rafa into selecting him when Atsu is better suited. That pen was fucking embarrassing. As much use as a one-legged man in an arse kicking contest.

The goalkeeper that he signed, and that he selected tonight despite some utter crap displays.

Thanks for almost single-handedly throwing away our best cup run in ten, fifteen years. I'm absolutely raging with this entire match but this cunt should never play for the club again. He's dogshit.

Fucking useless this guy. We'd have been better off getting on the blower to big Jon Karelse to come out of retirement for one night.

Fucks sake.

Sels can fuck off. Useless Judge Rinder lookalike wanker.

Diame for Murphy and Ritchie for Atsu please Rafa.

Feels like I'm watching a reserve game cos you can hear the managers and goalkeepers shouting clear as a bell.

Definitely need to score before half time. These are shite.

Been an alright start. Hopefully we'll go up a gear or two soon.

Don't want to see Tiote anywhere near the team ffs.

Gayle to score, 7+ NUFC corners and 20+ booking points per side at 16/1, fiver. Gayle hattrick/NUFC 3-0 at 250/1, quid. HT NUFC 1-0/FT NUFC 2-0 at 16/1, four quid.

I think a lot of people are giving up on him a bit soon, like. He's had some excellent games in our shirt, some of them in the Premier League; you don't just become a bad player overnight. If he hasn't shown that ability to "kick on" a year/18 months down the line, then maybe it'll be time to see him go.

Unbelievable that Phelan is still in a job after he scammed everyone out of their money for those new flats, like.

Access Denayered.

Too many horrid, unpredictable Eastern European teams in there tbh. Krasnodar, Astra and Liberec are a nightmare to try and predict.

Got to hope for a draw on Sat to keep the cunt clinging on. A couple of wins in the next 4 or 5 should see him through to pissing away whatever January spends they have before the inevitable sharp nosedive into LLLLLLL territory for the run in.

Think they're annoyed that we bought arguably their best player and then have barely used him.

Port Vale conceded with the last kick and drew 2-2, not to worry

Needed Gateshead and Forest Green winners for a 400-something/1 shot Lincoln -1 was my main bet though and that flew in.

Lincoln -1 @ 11/4 Real Madrid, Copenhagen, Dortmund, Monaco @ 15/1

Quite how anyone at Villa thought paying £12m for McCormack would be a good idea is beyond me, like. You'd think they would have learned when they paid nearly £20m for Darren Bent despite having a team desperately lacking in invention and assumed that it would be the answer to all their problems.
