Black?

The keeper saved the one that hit the post too. Got a small but critical touch.

Just hold me Please

"Probably" Like Prince Andrew 'probably' needs a bit of help with his PR

I'm a huge fan of shrugging, frowning, mumbling, scoffing and sounding bored and lost So yes

Fuck me imagine having to listen to his press conferences

Not to be a dick or anything, but didn't you also say that Brereton-Diaz, Archer and Armstrong would score 60 goals between them in this division if we played to their strengths and they stayed fit?

Immediate unemployment, hopefully

Then after 68 minutes go up to your one and only beautiful tree, hack it down with a chainsaw and replace it with a load of barbed wire and a bucket of shit

Honestly, what are his ideas? What is he trying to implement? I wanted him to be given a chance but I just see someone who doesn't have the faintest idea what they're doing. He just looks lost and scared.

That substitution is the worst thing I've ever seen a human be responsible for. And I include 9/11 and the bombing of Hiroshima in that.

With a squad the size of ours how the hell can our bench be that shit

Have to win today and win convincingly. No excuses from players or manager. I want him to succeed but he needs to start showing he’s got what it takes to turn this group into a team, starting today. Bollocks to scar tissue, we should be smashing these all day long.

Mate of mine who’s an estate agent in Millbrook WhatsApped earlier to say he’d shown Bob Bradley around a few flats this afternoon. Make of that what you will

Followed by New York New York ‘The club that never sleeps’ That shut at 1

Who wrote that? ”His physical presence allowed him to excel in hold-up play”? He’s got the physical presence of a fucking twiglet, the only key difference being that a twiglet lying inert on the pitch might occasionally end up in the same vicinity as the ball, which Downs never is. I’ve never seen a player manage to be in completely the wrong place so relentlessly. Archer’s been crap too but at least he seems to understand the basic theoretical concept of being a footballer.

It was pretty apparent last night that Harwood-Bellis, for example, was hiding and didn't want to take any responsibility or show any leadership at all. Get the ball, stop, turn inside, give it to someone stood five yards away so it's their problem - all fucking night. When he wasn't doing that, instead of actually being a centre back and trying to win physical battles and dominate his man, he was falling over pretending to be fouled, crying like a little bitch, mouthing off and giving away stupid petulant fouls. He was an absolute disgrace last night and I'd bet a pound to a penny that he's one of the ones who is first to be making the excuses afterwards. He is the embodiment of our mental weakness hangover from last year, he's nowhere near as good as he clearly thinks he is, and he sets a terrible example to the new players. He looks like he'd rather be anywhere but here and I'd have him out alongside Stephens. Wood, Quarshie and Edwards aren't perfect but at least they look like they might care and it would be one less of last year's embarrassments hanging around stinking out the place.

Harsh on Martin. It’s obvious they haven’t shaken off the influence of Eric Black.

Just what is your beef with Welington?

Still’s just said that Jelert is out for 4-6 weeks so we might be needing both of them

Rangers will probably appoint him January after Rohl's been run out of town for a 0-0 at home to Kilmarnock. They were looking at Hasenhuttl before appointing Rohl, they appear to be obsessed with us, might as well go for the hat trick.

I think he's going to get eaten alive, personally. He's another appointment the fans don't want and the mood he's going into there is far more toxic than it was when Martin went in, and look how long he lasted. Rohl can do himself a few favours simply by not behaving like as much of an arrogant, aloof twat as Martin did (he can buy a few easy, early brownie points with the fans by wearing their club suit and stuff like that that a lot of their fans take really seriously, and not wanking on about loving the players and all that), but he will need to deliver instant results or they'll turn on him as quickly as they did Rusty. They have got their knives well and truly out for their owners, they see Rohl as those owners taking another massive gamble, and if he doesn't start winning straightaway they'll chew him up and spit him out like they did Martin, just as a means of trying to make the CEO/ DOF's positions untenable and getting them fired.

Ange also started him for Forest in their last game against Chelsea last weekend, before he got canned. He's not been playing as he's been out with injury but he appears to have recovered now and will be part of Dyche's plans there I would have thought, either starting or off the bench, given how he values physical presence up top. Can't see him being willing to drop down a division, and knowing SR I'd imagine we'll be shopping abroad in January and looking for a nice, young risky prospect to gamble our future on, possibly with a history of career-threatening injuries.

Who were the safe choices?
