I'd have Ralph back over this cunt anyday.

So were Everton's, until they brought in a manager who knew what he was doing.

Should be thinking of the team not himself

In your opinion, but do kids nowadays watch a lot of Monty Python’s Flying Circus or Fools and Horses?

Or old people tend to like old TV programmes?

Think us, Bournemouth and Forest will go down, Forest might be close though.

In my opinion playing three centre backs makes no sense when our best player is a holding midfielder, especially when we are not blessed with brilliant centre backs. It is important to be flexible but there is no reason why 4-2-3-1 can’t be flexible.

Crazy that we’ve spent more than the whole of Serie A and La Liga combined. Alcaraz looks quality but don’t have the foggiest about the two big signings, have to give it an 8/10 purely because we’ve done something to address the obvious problems.

This. I wasn’t calling for a Ralph to go but thought it was fair enough making a change, but swapping him for this chump is nuts.

Jones fucked that with his 5 at the back first half shit show.

We’ve been shit every single time we’ve played 5 at the back, why doesn’t this cunt learn.

Bree was jogging back for their second.

That’s what I would have gone with.

No Lavia, what a fucking joke.

The win meant a lot to Ralph because of his history with Klopp, not because of Liverpool’s form. I thought it was great that a Saints win meant so much to him. Weird how some people have problems with men showing emotion.

Bunch of wankers, as if they already didn't already have enough of an advantage with the bone-sawers blood money.

Hats off to those making the journey, it's a long way to go when we all know what the likely outcome will be. It's a long-shot to expect us to get a result up there but there's always a chance. If there is still only a goal in it going into the last ten minutes they will get nervy as fuck in front of all those northern monkeys who have already forked out for the trip to Wembley. I'm not actually bothered being a goal behind, I fancy us more with nothing to lose than having to go up there and try and hold onto a slender lead. There's no pressure on us, it's just a free hit.

Not sure you can compare a January midweek treck to some northern shit hole to a trip to Milan.

We were never seriously threatened by relegation under Ralph, we all said in the summer we needed a goalscorer.

Obviously trying to hold on without conceding another was the right thing to do. Some football fans are bell-ends, we all know that, and it's not going to change. Why any manager would feel the need to point that out is bizarre though, screams of his own insecurities to me. If he's going to pick up on what a few nob heads in the Northam say every week he's going to have a breakdown or something. Just shut the fuck up and win some football games and none of it will matter.

Anti white watch

0-1 not a disaster, it’s only half time. Alacatraz looked good, looking forward to seeing him and Lavia behind JWP. The Northern cunts think they are already at Wembley, just BUY A FUCKING STRIKER before next Tuesday and we have a slight chance.

I wouldn’t be that bothered with a narrow defeat. Win, lose or draw the tie is going to be decided at St James next week. Part of me thinks we might have a better chance if Newcastle go into next week’s game thinking they just have to turn up and they are through. Obviously it would be great if we smash the cheating northern monkeys tonight but I don’t have much faith in us holding onto a narrow win up there.

Think the formula was 'play a team in a competition that is 4th in their list of priorities'.

Probably the most likely option. There’s going to be a limit to who we can attract in our position and who would want to sell in the January window. I expect we will see a couple of last minute loans from big clubs after they have sorted out their business. Makes more sense than chucking silly money at some chump who has only scored twice this season.
