In the words of Duncan Bannantyne, “and for that reason, I’m out.”

Agreed although Armstrong seems to have bucked his ideas up recently so they may gamble on him maintaining that form. Hopefully by now they know they cannot afford to do the same with Bazunu. I have my doubts however.

In the same way that a broken clock is right twice a day, if you persist with Bazunu for enough games, it stands to reason he’ll pull off the occasional decent save. It was a good save though, granted. He is still not the answer and the club needs to start the search for a replacement, if it hasn’t already.

Pretty sure we’ve already done it this season ourselves. Wasn’t it Bragg?

And it’ll most likely be another total shitshow of a decision.

This is Sports Republic we are talking about here. Anything is possible.

Maybe so but it’s surprising he’s not been given a crack by anybody. Are you telling me the likes of Jack Stephens and Harwood-Bellis wouldn’t sit up and take notice when he tries showing them a thing or two? By all accounts he was a popular figure at Villa as assistant under Smith.

Still surprises me John Terry has never been given a crack at management. One of the best and most decorated Premier League centre backs and captains of all time must have something to offer in management.

So the club doesn’t need a shift in approach? Let’s keep on keepin’ on then? Righty-ho, pal… 👍🏻

If we are going to judge candidates of the next manager purely by performance in their most recent role, we are going to be picking from an extremely limited pool. Who do you suggest? Guardiola? Howe? Maybe see if Klopp fancies a crack at the Championship? The club needs a complete shift in approach. It needs to get back to basics. The players clearly need a good boot up their arse. Football is a pretty simple game which has been massively over complicated by footballing hipsters the past few years. Not least by Russell Martin with his ridiculous commitment to his “style” at all costs or our present incumbent who made a name for himself by being half decent at Championship Manager. A Pulis or Allardyce type would set us up to be more difficult to beat almost overnight. He would also most likely sack off this 5 at the back insanity we keep reverting back to.

Why are we laughing about bring in a Pulis, Allardyce or Warnock? It’s exactly what the club needs. Especially the first two.

This c*nt has got to go. Complete rabbit in the headlights. One of the worse sides I’ve ever seen to beat us by 2 clear goals.

If you are mid-table in January, you have every chance of breaking the top six. We aren't competing against Liverpool, Arsenal, Man City, Chelsea, Villa and Newcastle here...

Made bloody hard work of that. Sheff Utd clearly as bereft of confidence as a side as we are. Really hope the squad uses this as a springboard but there can be no doubting we had more than our fair share of luck to pull that win out the bag. Great to see Stewart with a couple of goals. He surely has to be the focal point of the attack in the middle with others playing off him. Out of what we have at the moment anyway.

Jesus we are a fucking poor, poor side.

Wasn’t the pass to Chiesa offside? Couldn’t see anyone playing him on in the Quick Look I had on the replay?

First half tactics were ridiculous. Constant long balls to a 5’9 forward against two complete lumps at centre half without a fellow team mate within 30 yards of him. Finally started getting a foothold on the game midway through the 2nd half and he changes half the team. His go-to strategy when we go behind of just slinging on as many forwards as possible leaves a lot to be desired too.

Damp squib that. Ive got some serious concerns about Still.

Bazunu beaten all ends up by a shot at the middle of his goal 🙄

If ever there was a player destined for a move to Turkey, it’s Aribo.

Correct. May as well have a ghost in goal.

Proper scummy club. Love playing the victim card whenever it suits them but can’t resist constantly indulging in underhanded tactics themselves.

They all count…

I wouldn’t say no to an oral offer right now…
