Broja is the new Redmond, picked regardless of form.

Bored “with” not bored of, p-lease !

Yawnie yawnie yawn yawn zzzzzz

He had dropped off way before Ramadan, but for reasons I could never fathom he has always been immune from criticism, whereas the other two only have to fart in the wrong direction to get slaughtered.

I’m not too enthused regarding Fulham coming back up, or Bournemouth for that matter, I would much rather see someone less familiar get promoted, maybe Forest will still make it.

I do flip flop to a small degree, I’m not his greatest fan, the annual drubbings are unacceptable, the repeated brain farts are inexcusable. But we could, and have done worse. While I’m on a moaning roll I don’t like him celebrating a victory like he’s just one the champions league either, I find it embarrassing.

I don’t feel different, as it happens

For what it’s worth I don’t have a problem with your contribution, all I would say you could be the bigger person and walk away from the pettiness and the baiting.

Think it will be a struggle, we only have an allocation of 1770, looking at the eligibility criteria they are going to be gold dust.

Sell outs are a funny old thing, there always appears thousands of empty seats.

You obviously are seeking the notoriety of a double digit defeat, I guess at least they won’t have to keep talking about the 9 nills. Out of interest, if Redmond is the answer then what is the question?

True, I also forgot the points and results smoothing formula which when applied shows we are over performing and should consider ourselves very fortunate to have the professor of turd polishing as our manager. Silly old dinosaur I am!

Can’t remember us having many chances, one good chance Che missed, so if we’d taken all chances and they theirs it would have been 11 2 or the like, hardly a consolation

Maybe he’ll go in the summer anyway? Given he’s announced his intention to retire in a couple of years it seems unlikely the new owners are going to allow him to become too involved in any rebuild project, assuming that rebuilding is their intention.

He has been dreadful since Villa away, before that he was good, now he is bad, hence regression

You’d think so, but there does seem to have been some kind of undertaking that he plays if fit. I like him, but like a lot of us I think we would be far better with Peraud left and KWP right. I really like Peraud, he’s a good wing back, puts in great crosses but mostly became is a feisty petit mehrd, which we could have done with in yesterday’s embarrassing capitulation. As much as we’ve done it to death, with Elyounussi’s massive drop of we could give him a go on the right of midfield. I think Peraud carried the can for the Villa defeat which is unfair as he was left hopelessly exposed.

It’s possible he has improved them, it’s also possible they have matured and developed naturally, if your going to credit him with the development of players then by extension you can hold him responsible for the players that have regressed under his tenure, for example Redmond, Elyounussi and Djneppo, also his failure to “develop” Peraud into a regular starter. I agree we need more talent in attacking mid, it my point relates to money spent, we tend to hunt for unpolished diamonds, so, when you speak of net spend it’s not the full story, you would be better to look at squad value, we have some players that would command significant transfer fees.

If your ethos is developing talent, as ours is, then the transfer spend is far less relevant, regardless of that, I wouldn’t trust Ralph with with Man City’s squad, it’s still be a wreckit schizophrenic roller coaster.

They were over run yet again due to a dysfunctional midfield, it keeps happening.

Spot on, but somehow his numerous mistakes are forgiven, never understood that

How does Mings get selected for England?

Reverted to form the last five games

Its a shame the "golf course" at Mayflower Park has gone, that would probably have swung it.

I only meant from the point we don’t have to sell, therefore have more control over comings and going’s

I’m not disputing Borja is having a dip, but the whole team is, 1 point from 12 isn’t all on him. During our good run we had a highly functioning midfield, that is not so currently. My belief is that Elyonoussi has seriously dropped off, but we do not have anything in the way of an adequate replacement.
