Yeah, if I'm part of the blame for defeats I'm still waiting for my 50 grand a week.

You can be as sarcy as you like but I heard it from someone who worked at the club.

Not sure how these things normally work but shouldn't the sale of the club have been handled by an independent company rather than people with a vested interest?

Heard some Americans were shown round St Marys with a view to buying the club.

This rather weak and pathetic claim that it is difficult to be in the Prem League is clearly an attempt to deflect criticism which neither Ralph or Semmens seem able to take. As others have said we've been in the top league for most seasons since the mid 60s so we belong there. All this defeatist nonsense from management does them no favours and sends out entirely the wrong message.

I'll give you that one.

But shouldn't a person in such a senior position as Semmens conduct himself in such a way as to not get sucked in by negativity from fans? He should be rising above that, selling the club and what they are doing and reassuring the fans not getting into petty spats with them.

I'm not changing what he said just stating that that's not how he comes across to me in most of his post match interviews.

He might think he does but it rarely comes across in his post match interviews.

So Ralph still blaming the players and taking zero responsibility while collecting a big fat wad for the privilege.

He said exactly the same thing last time.

Don't think so.

How many strikers scored against us on Saturday? He comes out out with some rubbish.

More to the point, are they good players?

Guy's a fruit loop!

A fair assessment and much how I saw it.

A new manager.

You've identified one of the main problems there....'if he kept things simple'. Unfortunately he tries to be too clever for his own good hence the weird formations, selections and strategies.

Shouldn't we be spending the January kitty now? Why wait until January when we need some serious signings right now? January could be too late.

You'd think Ralph would be well aware of the difference between pre-season friendlies and EPL matches.

He's a proper defender and one we could use in our pathetic back line.

The club CEO who says, 'Bloody Hell, this Ralph wotzizname knows his stuff, his side just beat Leeds 5 nil....sign him up...I don't care what it costs....get him on the blower now!'

Don't let him take penalties though 🙂

Nothing is ever Ralph's fault.....according to Ralph 🙂

Sign up Sarr - just scored from inside his own half 🙂
