Some people don't know they're born/remember that our last three managers were John Carver, Steve McLaren, and Alan Pardew. It's quite alarming how quickly people have taken things for granted. We're owed NOTHING by Rafa, learn to have a bit of faith and humility. So hes not allowed criticism at all? Of course he is, it's the extent that it's going to that's O.T.T imo. To be fair i dont think its OTT at all, we were beaten and people react, calm down then offer an opinion, ive been guilty of bedwetting early in the season, im learning to think of the end result then judge.the club is better with Rafa and that shines through thankfully

Totally agree.some folk forget what football is about, these guys got me of my arse, fabulous on there day and a luxury i can forgive.

Interesting thoughts from fans, im trying not to panic. We are on track, like others im only bothered about going up, whichever way that is the end game.i dont agree with folk shooting down others who question Rafa, its like you are an idiot to question stuff. We play Forest on Friday then away to Blackburn, im uncomfortable about both games now, Rafa needs to get them up for Friday and we will be back on track if we win. The pack are closing, it will be just like us to fuck this up in the playoffs, its the way we roll. Im still with Rafa, but please dont castigate those that pull him up, he's not a genius is he?

Imagine if Defoe is sold

They were talking of banking 20-30 million on him and using it to survive, no fucker will pay that now. They really will be gutted

Done intentialy perhaps? Surely everyone is aware that it winds them up. That's what I thought. I see

gutted for the lad, englands number one, thats the 50 million down the pan

After a torrid boxing day fixture as usual, we go again We owe these a beating and in truth we need it. Predictions and what changes would you make? 2-0 for me, changes....drop colback and just fucking try 4-4-2 ....just for once.

Who would you go for mate? Im struggling

Fuck you on about? Ashleys record is that he never goes back for anyone. Ben Arfa was hardly the saviour was he? I think he is excatly what we need right here and now but not for the future, no way.

When we need him to step up he doesnt. Massive disaapointment last night for me

Why do they pick him? I can rarely recall a game he played well in.Another waste of a wage.shocking

Where has he gone? Utter shitehawk of a player now.

Colback, Anita, Hayden, Goofy Fuckin hell Apart from Darlow they were all shockingly shite. Poor side from Rafa, set the tone, wish he would get on the front foot a bit more often.

Im struggling to see a plan tonight.poor all round. Fucking hate xmas games

Feared this would happen.Shelvey is a massive miss and we have a piss poor B game without him.

We have more points than the other teams.it how it works

anita

A strong boring 1-0 will do me champion. Stuck in the midlands, gutted and full of cold but looking forward to this on sky. HTL

If he does go, his mam had better watch her letterbox. And may be the reason he wont go back to the smoke

I think he may want one last move back home.he will see another relegation battle next season as a chore.even at his wages someone will take him, i think he will put up with it till the end of the season then go.no way will Sunlun let him go, no way not in Jan.

I agree but from a club point of view not a personal one for him.Ashleys track record is once sold ya gone forever, many thought Cabaye would return, Andy Carroll , i simply cant see it, however Rafa gets what Rafa wants.

Agree, be interesting if Short would take £15 million

Interesting to see the valuation of Defoe? Mackems think £30 million He's about 47 isnt he?

Delph rumour not going away
