While Theo is undoubted quality, I just wonder whether he is 'relegation dogfight' quality, and this is my issue with quite a few of the names mentioned on the transfers thread. I'm thinking that we need a certain kind of player to get us out of this mess and I don't think that Theo is that kind of player. I don't know who the player is myself, but in my mind I've got leader, talker, warrior, organizer and the like - not Theo.

This is pretty much how I feel - I'm not at all bothered if we go down, not fussed in the slightest. I think we flirted a bit above our station to be honest, so to see us struggling now is no real surprise to me. I agree with the point about money as well, let's face it there are the 'haves' and the 'have nots' - we are the latter. We can comfort ourselves in the fact that we have provided quite a few players who have gone through our system and onto the higher echelons of the 'haves', so in that respect we have been successful. But that said the money has ruined the league, obscene prices and obscene wages - very few fans will dine at the top table in their lifetimes. Whilst I'm not bothered about relegation I do actually feel sorry for the kids. My son is just getting into football and I just wonder will he see us back in the Premiership any time soon. If we go down this season - will we recover as quickly as we did last time? I don't think we will, when you look at the clubs down there it's frightening to think of the Leeds, Birmingham, Wolves and Sheffield's have all been trying for many years to get promoted without success. All of that said - relegation or not, I will continue to go to games - it ain't the end of the world!

Not what I meant - having read the original post numerous times, I just have no idea what you were saying (or trying to say).

Does he still have his boots?

Nope, sorry, over me. Afternoon drinkies?

FWIW I actually agree with you, I just don't understand why people leave early. I also can't get my head around people who rush to get food 5 or 6 minutes before half time either, what is all that about? But at the end of the day, you pays your money so the choice is yours I guess. Sent from my SM-T580 using Tapatalk

Looking for the easy pickings when we go down, not a lot of personal disruption moving from us to Cherrys. Damn vultures are circling already. Sent from my SM-T580 using Tapatalk

Points one and two, yes. But I don't think that Monk is the man to turn this one around. We need somebody with more experience (who doesn't mind kicking ass and egos) that the players will respect and work for. Don't think that person is Gary Monk WADR.

I don't care. Sent from my SM-T580 using Tapatalk

Not so sure that getting back will be quite as straight forward as last time, we got exceptionally lucky with our new owners. A lot of big clubs have been less fortunate than us and struggled for years to get back to the premiership. Sent from my SM-T580 using Tapatalk

I'm just very glad that Markus is not here to witness this whole sorry debacle. This is definitely not 'his dream'. Sent from my SM-T580 using Tapatalk

Given the state of things right now, I'm not sure that we will arrest the slide, I can feel a 'Sunderland' coming up a bit like last time we went down. Sent from my SM-T580 using Tapatalk

Yep, I would be doing the same, keep any money from player sales firmly in my sky rocket. There is no way that we should be in this position. Sent from my SM-T580 using Tapatalk

Can't believe that I'm now actually ****ed off that we missed the bus with BFS, never thought I'd say that. Sent from my SM-T580 using Tapatalk

Don't think he's been here long enough to realise the gravity of the situation. Might well only realise too late. Sent from my SM-T580 using Tapatalk

Palace lost their first 7 games, ergo dropped the first 21 points. Sent from my SM-T580 using Tapatalk

Excellent, we can get Hughes in to sort this mess out. Sent from my SM-T580 using Tapatalk

So a team that gave us a 21 point start is now ahead of us. Miracle now required. Sent from my SM-T580 using Tapatalk

Optimistic. Sent from my SM-T580 using Tapatalk

Would he really want to come and sort out this heap of shyte is the more pertinent question? Would anybody? Sent from my SM-T580 using Tapatalk

And we will be down first as well. No fight in our lot ar all. Sent from my SM-T580 using Tapatalk

I think we all know which is this seasons 'freefall' team now. Sent from my SM-T580 using Tapatalk

Tend to agree, players don't have the balls for it, manager is clueless. Sent from my SM-T580 using Tapatalk
