Ah mannnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnn. Did he actually fucking say that? Got another one to add to your sig. Could genuinely make a fucking book out of his excuses. And not a very good book. Certainly not Bravo Two Zero by Andy McNab, which actually improves with every read.

They are professionals, the problem is that they are normal humans and they are affected by the same things as all of us. The team selection screwed us and we had no chance once we went a goal behind so early. Pardew should have made changes within the first 5 minutes and he didn’t. He’s let us all down, the club, the players and the fans. I agree with both of you. You know my feelings on Pardew but the players weren't good enough in their general application today, at all. They're clearly fucking fed up but they owe it to the fans they profess to loving when it suits them to put in a better shift than that, even if they are operating under idiotic instructions.

Ah mannnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnn. Did he actually fucking say that?

What were they saying? Basically saying that none of it can be attributed to him, players are gutless, board haven't backed him and Europe has taken its toll. Just totally flabbergasting. Seriously? I'm always a bit loath to criticise fans who go to all the home games (like my dad, mates, etc) when I only go to a handful of (usually away) games each season. However, I'm astonished at that. I can only put it down to people being taken in by his personality and his bullshit, but that isn't any less disappointing. We, as a group of supporters, should be able to see through that shite. He's using every excuse in the book and people are swallowing it, thankfully my dad's not one of them or else we'd end up having a proper falling out.

There was nearly a fight broke out right in front of me after the third goal. One old bloke going fucking spare and everyone else turning on him. To both of you - what are defenders of him saying at this stage? I am not looking forward to going to West Ham, I might see if I can sell the ticket. One thing that's just dawned on me is this: people always go on about this idea that a good manager wouldn't come near us, I don't agree with that in any case but I'll put that aside for a moment. I think a good manager with something to prove would be fucking dying to come and work here, regardless of the stature of the club etc, for the simple reason that they'll look at the squad and think "Fuck me, I'll be able to raise standards with that set of players immeasurably with no bother at all". We're unfortunately again at the stage where we're waiting helplessly on the whims of an enigmatic and eccentric owner to see what the craic is. If we don't make a change then we're obviously going nowhere, and that's the best case scenario. Worst case scenario is we go down this year, next worst is that we're fucked early doors next year. I think you'd have to be utterly insane to think we can achieve anything now if we carry on with this lark.

YEAH MOFO'S!!!!!!!!!! the saddest bastards are those gloating cos we got beat 6-0 at home. I don't want to fall out with you at all, but you can fuck off implying I'm not as fuming about today as you are (I'm assuming I'm one of the haters you're referring to). I'm probably more angry if anything, because I've been telling my mates where this was going for months and they've only just started listening. So pissed off with it now. ok Fair point, read the rest of it though. Do you honestly think people who have been on Pardew's back are gloating about today? I'm fucking devastated.

We had an excuses target. We've fucking smashed it to bits.

6-0 at home to a midtable side without by far and away their best player. I can't believe it. We can't buy a win away from home and we've just shipped 9 goals in 2 home games against mediocre opposition. It's beyond incompetence now.

Your hate is misdirected in part. A good deal of it should be directed at those above him as well. You won't catch me having a problem with directing some of the blame at them daft cunts.

I'm so angry now like, I don't even know what to do with myself. Absolutely fuming at what this daft cunt's done to the club.

6 fucking 0 man. I feel totally humiliated. How the fuck do you go into work after this? I can't do this anymore, it takes the absolute piss.

So fucking angry.

It makes me sick. For the record I pay for a season ticket and can't be there today, but I'm disgusted with the fans there. Pathetic. Serious question because I'm interested - what would you hope/expect the crowd to do? I'll most likely end up agreeing with you but just wanted to ask.

Fuck having a squad like. Would just be nice if they were up to it. He's proven already that he is. Bit harsh singling out youngsters when they're being let down by the senior players and the gutless manager. Said exactly the same when people had made Sammy Ameobi their scapegoat earlier this season. What's wrong with saying a player is out of his depth when it's clear that he is? I'm not saying he's crap, he's just nowhere near ready for this level of football. It's extremely difficult for youngsters to come into a struggling side devoid of confidence, you see it time and time again with us.

I feel like there's ample blame to share over multiple people. You need to share the blame IMO.

Stop hating man, it's all cool.

Attacking is part of defending, tiring the opposition and taking pressure off your own back line, but he doesn't seem to understand that.

Waddle is being a fucking prick there, having a go at the fans for groaning at one of the most ridiculous passes of the season, in the situation we're in.

You can basically tell how desperate the situation is by how early HBA's name gets chanted. Today it's 24 minutes.

How can you be set up with 90% of your intention to defend and still look so wide open at the back?

It is, tbh. That capitulation looked real familiar. You're making me feel bad, call me a prick or something. Man, I was going to pop around the local pub to watch this, doubtless with a bunch of Liverpool fans. Good swerve, Interpolic.

I agree to an extent. I haven't got a clue what the majority are thinking with this.

This is like playing FIFA vs Mike.
