I meant the recent defeats. Spurs away I can accept - Wolves, Villa and Everton I can't.

It was a stupid team selection and smacked of Ralph throwing his toys out of the pram.

But why drop Salisu who was developing a solid partnership with ABK. Why play a kid at left back when Djenepo has done well there and Perraud is ok? He took out 50% of the back four for no reason.

Tear up his fucking playbook. Get players passing and moving, ball on the deck and play between the lines. Move the ball forward quickly and cut out all the negative backward and sideways passes. Play players in their correct positions. It's not rocket science but he makes it seem soooooo complicated.

Get him gone now.

I'm sure his wife will.

That is the stand out fact - we are not losing to good sides.

I don't think the owners can risk their investment by allowing this shit show to continue one minute longer.

Lose this and Ralph's record including last season's run-in is screaming for him to be sacked. He's had his nine lives now,

I'm agreeing he won't resign.

I doubt anyone seriously expects Ralph to resign. Maybe more a case of it would be the honourable thing to do in the circumstances but we know you won't do it.

Here we go with the blame the fans routine. Pay them six million a year and then you can blame them.

Not in the slightest.

Maybe we'd have been better off playing out a scrappy 0-0. We poked Everton and they woke up.

Time's up Ralph.

You couldn't make this shit up.

As you were. Same old same old.

What did Ralph change? 🙂

Wonder if Everton will realise at half time that this game is there for the taking.

What about the first half entertainment?

Ralph still more scared of getting a bad beating than going out to win a game of football. Far too negative for his own good and will ultimately cost him his job.

It's called Ralphball - trouble is, it doesn't work. Get him gone.

How has the kid at left back done?

I think the idea that you make that many changes and expect an instant result is pie in the sky. A good manager spots where he needs to make astute changes not wholesale ones. This smacks of him chucking a load of names together, hoping they might gel and then if they don't he'll say what else do you want me to do. The answer Ralph is a lot more than we're getting for your huge salary.

Same as Villa then so Ralph has learned diddly squat.
