We did not want to leave!

Brexit was so bloody unnecessary - one of the biggest acts of self-harm in history. It's such a shame that those that voted to leave won't ever admit it because they're embarrassed at being conned by Nige and Boris - if they did we could move to re-join.

Potter wouldn't come here. Not sure Moyes is a wise pick either, his football needs tall, physical footballers to work. We don't have them.

If the old people need to keep warm they can come over mine and shovel hay if they wish?

I don't think we need to change the Manager - I have consistently said from the beginning of LAST season that the issue with PSR will mean if we got promoted we would not be able to purchase the players we needed to stay-up. I maintain that. We got relegated comfortably with a team that was clearly not good enough for the Premier League - we then sold 90% of our best players. We then got promoted by loaning two of our best players, who we then had to purchase for big bucks. I think Martin did a great job considering how much worse our team was player for player versus Leeds and Leicester (Ipswich did very well but had some fantastic momentum). I expect to get relegated comfortably this season, but that's due to the players - I have banged this drum consistently over the last 14 months - so this season, although frustrating, is 100% predictable (and I did).

No, we're not good enough because our players AND manager aren't good enough.

Of course we're fucked unless things don't change, we've lost all 4 games. Do you get paid for this amazing insight?

So you're saying that we're not good enough defensively or attacking wise. I mean, not sure many Managers will be able to work with that.

Everyone is saying Potter - outside of the fact that he won't be interested, has anyone ever watched a Potter team play football. It's horrible. It's why Brighton fans were not unhappy to see him go.

An unlocked 3 4G LTE Router - I paid £35 off Ebay, similar to this: https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/295566456668?mkcid=16&mkevt=1&mkrid=711-127632-2357-0&ssspo=bSF5BO0ERiq&sssrc=4429486&ssuid=logzcVcfQqq&var=&widget_ver=artemis&media=COPY

Yeah, 4G. We don't have 5G near us.

No, a spine is through the middle (hence the name). Fernandes has played less than 90 PL minutes - how can you say he's good enough?

We clearly played differently, yes, we played more long balls and we carried the ball more. We also moved it far quicker front to back in the first 35 minutes.

Agree to disagree then. I've not seen him play well this season.

Look at what I've written in the past and make your own judgement.

We tried to play differently today - how did that go?

Well, he wasn't for West Ham, so not sure how you can say that. He hasn't looked PL quality, like THB.

What £6m? What CB is that buying? We needed to upgrade 8 or 9 players. How does that work with FFP? What they've done is invested in players that are good enough to get us back up, as we needed too many players to allow us to compete this season with FFP.

Sugawara scored from open play didn't he?

Who's that spine? Downes has not shown he's PL quality. So the spine consists of Ramsdale...and then?

This.

They're not PL quality in any way - that's the issue.

How many of those are proven PL players? Downes has been poor this season, Fernandes has played less than 90 minutes, Lesley has hardly played in the PL and Dibling looks good, but had his first start today. Not sure how you can say any of them are PL players.

Quick poll guys - which of the players we have do you think are PL players. I'll start you off: KWP. Ramsdale. I'm done.

It's not #Martino, it's the players aren't good enough unfortunately. Gulf between PL and Championship is too big now unless you have some half decent players to start with. Downes hasn't looked like a PL player, yet he was miles too good for the Championship. I think in Baseball they call it a "quad-A" player.
