Football Special

Travelling back now, usual time wasted watching this bunch of cunts masquerading as a football team, they're laughing at us putting in performances like that, Chelsea have some decent players but you'd never know as we gifted them goals anyway . That defence reminded me of my Sunday league days when short of players and someone's 60 year old Dad would make up the numbers , utter shambles and not an ounce of pride amongst the lot of them.

Sooner or later we've got to improve, surely it can't get any worse can it?

Yeah looks like they are going to wait until the summer , so we'll still be paying Martin for a whole longer

Sheffield United v Leeds was a good game, both sides would comfortably beat us currently. Leeds look certain to go up so at least we won't have to play them next season

Yep and in that time we've not had anyone sticking around for consistency, had Joe Shields and Jason Wilcox and the whole Man City academy recruitment policy

I struggle with the mentality, "I did something once in a different place with different people which worked well and because of that I'm going to keep trying the same thing here with new people. I know my system is right so if it doesn't work it must be everyone else's fault" Feels like we're stuck on a loop with these "systems" continually failing again and again.

I'm not sure any of our Republic of Ireland players would be too popular at Ibrox

That would be a great job for him to be fair, and means we can stop paying him

Watching Man Utd fans reaction is comedy gold, feel sorry for the normal people losing their jobs though

It's like our fans thinking ABK will fix our defensive problems

I'm hoping we'll play Palace a few days after their FA Cup 1/4 final ( assuming they beat Millwall) and benefit from them having nothing to play for in the league. Fulham home also possible if they are in fa cup semi around then. Everton away we'll get something I think.

This could be a nice collective record to share with others as well

I'm going to call in sick to work tomorrow and say that , more time for pre match shandies as well

It is hard not to laugh a bit , he also removed stewards £50 Christmas bonus I think, seems incredibly petty but losing a lot of goodwill

Stephens marking Cucurella hopefully.

What a funny old game football is , paying millions a week on players and then doing stuff like this

Alternative is to follow the FA Youth Cup quarter final away to Watford, might be shown on their YouTube page keep an eye out for that

My memory isn't great on this, but I don't think Markus was actually that wealthy and the big Liebherr construction group wasn't owned by him, it was other members of the family

I've done it most of this season, and in some games where we take the lead lump on more like vs Newcastle and Man Utd where odds were too good to miss when you know what's coming

Big Les can't play as he's on loan from Chelsea, so Downes really has to step up. I don't want to see ABK ever again. Where is Wood and Taylor?

Not only that....but we're all spending more money per visit , hour before ko and fans zones / Dell pub are packed with people queueing up to pay £6.80 per pint , queue to get in club shop as well

Agree with both of you, SR have had their chance and they've blown it, time for them to pass the baton. Maybe that's why Rishi Sunak was there yesterday, brokering a deal with his father in law

He could have been playing for u21s to regain fitness but I hear he hasn't been interested in doing that

THB, Wood, Bednarek all injured now? And Stephens not back to full fitness, where's Taylor?

Amazing we're taking full 3,065 allocation, no matter what happens on the pitch it can't be as bad as this previous visit , a real low point for us as a football club
