Perhaps you should of been more of a friend & spoken to her about her depression and problems. Had you spent less time moralising on football forums and more time looking after the well-being of your friends you may have known what she was going through.

This is the latest in a long line of pony spouted by the Ralph apologist, that somehow he knew the exact moment to play Broja and that’s why he now looks the part. The truth is a bit simpler than that, the player Ralph did pick, the one he thought was our best striker wasn’t doing it. Coupled with Che’s injury,he picked the next striker off the rank, Broja. Lots of managers stubble upon their best side, but I’ve never seen it portrayed as a great management before. But then we haven’t seen the Cult of Ralph before. When he eventually plays Tino and KWP down the right, the cult will proclaim that as proof of his visionary approach and getting the timing spot on again. Hail to King Ralph….

Nathan Redmond must have a bet every fucking week that he’ll only use his right foot.
-
Gary Neville making a right cock of himself. Tying himself in mental knots rather than accept Ole isn’t good enough.
-
That’s it. I seem to remember he lost the plot because the manager wouldn’t make a sub so sent his flunky down from the boardroom to tell the manager he was sacked. Fucking hell, good job our owner doesn’t attend games,if not making substitutions get you the sack, Ralph would have gone months ago. Im sure Stan Flashman probably sacked Barry Fry during the game, because he sacked him about 15 times. I know the Peterborough manager resigned in front of Barry during the pre match team talk, as it was on Big Ron Manager.
-
Wasn’t the bloke at QPR sacked during the game, there was a documentary about the lunatic running it. I think he was something to do with formula 1 if I remember correctly.
-
Doing well? He’s not good enough, if writing it upsets nods, so be it. Perhaps you missed my posts praising Tino, KWP, OR, etc, seems a bit strange you missed them, as you seem to pay particular interest in my opinions. Odd.

I don’t know about the Alpine Klopp, I reckon ole is the Nordic Ralph.
-
It’s not the sign of a decent manager, it’s what every single manager, bar Ralph , does. Not doing so, is the sign of an incompetent manager.
-
No been a couple of seasons, obviously Mike Dean thought he made no attempt to play the ball.
-
Shame Roy Keane is not in the studio. He’d blow a fucking gasket.
-
The thinking is if a penalty is awarded, then there’s still a clear goal scoring opportunity. One hasn’t been denied, whereas a free kick isn’t a clear opportunity
-
That only applies inside the box. DOGSO outside the box is a red regardless of whether you went for the ball or not. It’s arguable that Pogba doesn’t jump in like that if they’re already down to 10.
-
They’re lucky they’re not down to 8.
-
If that’s not a clear goalscoring opportunity then my cocks a carrot
-
Years?
-
Whilst true, unfortunately it’s not that he’s playing particularly well now, its more an indication of just how shite he was previously.
-
What’s that got to do with the price of eggs. Unless we’re in a 7 team league he needs to be judged on results against the whole league, not just the odd win against the top 6. Koeman, Poch & Puel managed wins against the top sides, as has Ralph. You said we hadn’t beaten the top 6 for “years”, I don’t call a couple of seasons “years”.
-
We’ll Puel won at Arsenal & Liverpool on the way to Wembley as well as Inter Milan (do they count) .So as I said, a couple of seasons, not “years”. Its also worth noting that none of the 3 managers you’ve mentioned suffered 1, let alone 2 humiliating 9-0’s.
-
Maybe you should have quoted the rest of my post, “But that’s the nature of the game”, which you conveniently left out. It’s the one eyed Ralph supporters that hide behind excuses, not me. My consistent line has been that every single team faces injuries, bad decisions, & poor luck. But that’s the nature of the game. If I was a Leeds fan I wouldn’t want him out, but if he got stuffed 9-0 twice, fucked up a cup semi final, hardly won a game for half a season, and cried when we actually did, I’d probably change my mind.
-
Yep, Ralph is the unluckiest manager to ever walk the earth. If you took your Ralph specs off, you’d see that Leeds were pretty unlucky with injuries when we faced them. But that’s the nature of the game. These things even themselves out over a period. We’re struggling because we’ve got poor players and an average manager, it’s that simple. It’s not down to bad luck, referees, injuries or some other nonsense. Other sides hit the post, get bad decisions, injuries and make mistakes. The difference is their managers are accountable for results, ours doesn’t seem to be.
-
It’s amazing how many results aren’t Ralph’s fault. It’s individual errors, the ref, the VAR, injuries , it’s never ever his fault. Unless we win of course, then it’s down to Ralph as opposed to the opposition having injuries, individual mistakes, mistakes by refs or by var. You can analyse every goal and pin point a mistake, we not unique in that respect. The simple fact is Burnley are pretty shite and we couldn’t beat them. On the back of our horrendous run last season, we’re heading into November having only won one game. That’s not bad luck, nobody is that unlucky.
