  1. 3 points from 6 games you fat fuck! It’s not bad luck, it’s incompetence. Pack your bags and fuck off!
  2. Fucking criminal not winning that game! Watford were there for the taking. What a wasted opportunity!
  3. Bruce is renowned for his game winning half time team talks. This is as good as in the bag!

    Joelinton

    End product is the attribute that costs you the most money in football. We paid our record fee for a guy that has zero end product and zero influence on games of football. It’s one of the worst transfers I can remember.
  5. How is Joelinton so utterly woeful at kicking a football?! He does it every single day for hours. I don’t think there’s a worse finisher in the Premier League and you can include goalkeepers in that as well.
  6. Is it too early for a who stays when we go down thread?
  7. Shit like that used to make my blood boil but now it’s just water off a duck’s back. These people aren’t paid to be informed, they’re just paid to make noise for 120 minutes, regardless of whether it’s fact-based or not.
  8. As long as we’re top of the bottom 5 league, Ashley doesn’t care and Bruce stays.
  9. It hasn’t at all. We’ve been shite, they’ve been average but they took their chances. The penalty would’ve been our first shot on target in the whole game! You don’t win games in this league having no shots on target from open play. We’ve deserved fuck all and that’s exactly what we got.
  10. Has there ever been a manger so incapable of changing a game in the history of the PL?!
  11. Quality CMs command a premium and managers will have seen enough of him under Rafa to think he’s worth the risk. Age is on his side and he’s shown he can run games at this level with the right coaching. We’re about as far from that as you can get so let him see if he can fulfil his potential elsewhere instead of rotting under Bruce
  12. i think this contingent has always been there, in the minority, among the diehards. When the decent fans sacked it off, what’s left is the dregs. They bring their kids and mates along and before you know it you have Ashley and Bruce’s B&W army. Unless we get taken over, this is how it’ll be forever.
  13. I doubt he had anything to do with identifying any of them. When you don’t rely on tactics (because you’re a dinosaur) your requirements are simple. You just tell your recruitment team to look for fast players (Robertson, Fraser, Lewis), big players (Maguire, Krafth, Choudhary) attacking players with a bit of magic (Willock, Lazaro) and strikers that can stick it away. Every now again your Luddite approach to recruitment will unearth a gem who, despite your 1980s coaching, finds a way to shine and earn himself a big move.
  14. I’d take that right now. Not good enough for Man Utd but let’s be honest with ourselves, he’s better than most of the shite we’re likely to end up with this summer. I doubt he’d be up for playing under Bruce for Ashley wages though.
  15. We’re so shit at nurturing and developing young talent. You’d think for a tight arse like Ashley, focussing on youth development so you don’t have to fork out on transfer fees would be a no-brainer
  16. Southgate bottled that. 100% bottled! never let the game go to pens - they have far less to lose than we do.
  17. Do not sit back for 15 minutes!!!!!!
  18. Why leave it so late to bring Foden on?!
  19. Watch him take Grealish off for Foden ?
  20. The quality we have on the bench will be too much for the Danes but Gareth doesn’t want to take any of his favourites off.
  21. This game has been really poorly managed by Southgate. Tactics are wrong, lineup was wrong from the start and he finally brought the right player on but took the wrong one off.
  22. I fucking knew he’d do something shit like that! Leave Saka on, take Mount off FFS!
