In recent years, we’ve sold the spine of the team: Ings, Romeo, Forster, et al, and simply not replaced them. That is the root cause of the problem.

Now a pen…

FFS

We really need the 2 Arab clubs to score.

Let’s hope Nate works his famed motivational magic during the break

So do Leicester have an Xg of 3?

Second own goal by that chap…

Liverpool have equalised through a fluky own goal. Other than that they have been absolutely diabolical.

^ No surprise, the body language was awful v Brighton.

Grealish, so far in this match, doing nothing to justify his fee again.

“There is no presence of the American columns in the city of Baghdad at all. We besieged them and we killed most of them.”

Makes sense, Shields would have told Chelsea that he’s the only player worth signing from Saints.

Jones is looking like a suicidal appointment.

The demeanour of 80% of the players is one of disinterestedly going through the motions for a club about which they feel little connection and a manager they have no respect for. This was evident even in the tunnel footage Pre-match, let alone during and after the miserable defeat. This is the result of rush buying too many quarter-baked, callow youth ‘prospects’ and rejects from around the globe, in too short a time, while systematically dismantling the spine of the team. Then, putting a footballing David Brent up to manage them.

Seems crazy after one proper game but yes, sack him now, he’s blatantly out of his depth. Sports Republic I fear are a bunch of shysters that make Sam Bankman-Fried and FTX look like a paragon of business acumen and probity.

Seems we have a lot of right Charlies on the pitch, the manager is a Charlie and so are the board.

Looking grim.

We are worse than before the World Cup.

Is Alan Pardew available?

Ref bottled it. But it would have been a 'modern' soft sending off.

I am surprised the home fans have not yet informed the home manager that he does not know what he is doing.

Utterly impotent.

Jones at Stoke deja vu

Game over. Sports Republic are too clever by half.
