I don't agree with that, that's an easy cop out excuse.

I'm with you on that but there was definitely a tactic of being direct, which i don't really understand when you want to control the midifield as Rafa always alludes to. Something is just not right, whether that be the players not lstening (if so they're off their rockers to not listen to Rafa), or we've just hit a rut we can't get out of, and the players are taking the easy ball by getting rid instead of playing. Whatever it is, we just look awful at times, but go up and give him funds, better players in certain positions and we'll look so much better.

It's not the points total and it's clearly not failure. It's the turgid football (Leeds game aside) since Christmas that have brought this on imo. Criminal that we didn't freshen up the squad with at least one signing in January tbh. That's true enough but it still doesn't really explain the poor play, the Ipswich game was utterly awful. Even if you ignore too many changes, hitting long over and over was tactically terrible. But you're correct we should have signed one or two to freshen it up.

It is on Sky yep.

If Fulham get anything in their match against Huddersfield, then i think we'll win with ease. We'll be relaxed and will play freer than we have recently.

He plays two at the back most weeks like.

Me too. Been so difficult not to be snappy with my wife and daughter I was so angry i went and bought a vacuum cleaner. Mercy on your soul, you poor bastard. It was a Dyson to be fair, although i must have looked a nutter mumbling and ranting to myself in Argos. The cordless one? Oh yes, £170 off, purple though, bit like my face earlier. Good choice sir. Thank you , took my Mum to get one earlier and used her £10 voucher to get me own as i had the hump, and we needed one to be fair after fitting wooden flooring throughout the house.

Krul kicked better than this chump today. Rank poor.

I'm not convinced the squad is better that it's performing, not much better anyway. We've got 4-5 very good players, the rest in reality are bang average. Agreed, although they're better than the football he has them playing at times (especially since christmas) imo.

He's not failed, not for me but imo the football has been utterly awful for a while. The tactics today were terrible, just hoofing it forward to a lone striker is Pardew eye bleeding shite. He's better than that, the players/squad are better than that imo. Just extremely poor stuff at times.

They can get to 90, so we need 5 to go up on goal difference if they won all 4 of their games. Personally i think we now need just one win, that'll do it imo.

That goal was out get out jail free card, well out of the shit we've dug ourselves into.

Tinkered too much today and we paid for it, lack of ideas was utterly shocking. And i hate to say it but it was Pardew hoofball which makes me despair.

Spot on but you'll be pissing in the wind if you think it'll change. He's too stubborn and won't change a thing.

Pretty sure you didn't think that would ever happen but i agree we will go straight out, we have no character whatsoever.

Hahaha exactly what we deserve. Utterly pathetic stuff.

Bit negative for you I've been positive virtually all season but this is unacceptable. Utter shite. Players fault, or a bit of both ? It's a team effort. Benitez can't get it right every match, despite what some seem to believe. Of course he can't but he has to shoulder some of the blame. We constantly said it was Pardew job to motivate the players and todays performance has been awful in that respect.

Rafa we've been hoofing it all game, might as well have had two big strikers from the start if that's your tactics ffs.
