Yep, good performance from Ralph today. Changed things round second half and tactically affected the game.

Finally some cajones. Never really looked like conceding and defended properly. Fair play to Ralph, actually affected the game today. Great result

What on earth was going on before KO. What an absolute fucking shambles. Steward told me it was my fault for turning up so late. I told him “I’ve turned up the same time for 20 fucking years. Clowns

“I’ve had dealt with them” what the fuck does that mean?

Correct. They’re both ok as back up for a club of our standing. Personally, I prefer an experienced back up because they’ll be able to go weeks and weeks without playing, will prepare properly and will be ready to go when needed. I’ve no reason to doubt either are anything other than good solid professionals. There’s a bag of nails between them, but I’d imagine McCarthy will be cheaper, so will be the preferred option. I get the “we’re paying them so can’t buy anyone else” line, but to me, a ruthless manager gets someone else in. To muddle by on the basis we have to pay them is just nuts, unbelievable they’re so relaxed about it.

Thankfully he’s too tight to cough up a £5.

Honest? Unless he said “they’re both shite, I’ve known they’re both shite for the past year, but have done fuck all about it”, he was bullshitting.

Can he play in nets?

Personally, I’d rather he stopped opponents playing through us and protected the back 4 a bit more. Perhaps one of the birds from the office could do the “welcome to the club shite” and he could get on with making us hard to beat.

I haven’t been this excited since Frasier Forster signed a new deal…

I have seen anyone as effective in the triangulation of politics as soggy, even Blair, Clinton and Cameron couldn’t manage it as well as him. Left, right and centre all think he’s a complete bell end. Well done soggy.

What a pile of pony.

We’ve got shite in nets, defenders that can’t defend, midfielders that let sides play through us, don’t create much and have a weak mentality. Put that in a fucking graph

What a load of old pony

Sounds good to me. What’s his Xg, ILM & LmR?

My mates a taxi driver but he’s not very good at this “finding the destination business”. I’ve suggested he employs a bloke to sit next to him and navigate for him.

Well it’s a no from me. Proper centre halves have a full English.

Is he better than Dier?

Well said Pat. People genuinely want him to succeed and apart from the odd “get the c@#t out of the club”, most people like the bloke and can see he’s a decent man. There’s certainly more goodwill towards him than there was Puel, Pelligrino or Hughes and more than most managers would get after an appalling 9 months. That said, you just cannot mismanage situations like he has and expect total support. Don’t forget this is the bloke that picked Redmond ahead of Adams in a semi final. So forget about injuries, referees & other assorted excuses, that in itself shows ineptitude at Branfoot like levels.

He should be sacked for this alone.

Why can’t it be addressed till next year. Is there an embargo on signing keepers or a special keeper transfer window that’s now closed?

Why would he leave Rangers for us?

The Play station statos are very quiet this weekend.

Get another one in . I find it hilarious that people seem to think that you need to shift one on before you can get another one in. Nigel didn’t shift one out when he got Boruc in, when dawned on him Kelvin wasn’t good enough he did something. He’s been at the club long enough to have sorted the situation out.

You’re just making things up now. There’s been plenty of criticism of him for months. I suggest you rest the Ralph thread before posting pony like this. There’s more converts now, but that’s probably because people can’t quite believe he hasn’t addressed the obvious issues. Had we lost differently, I’m sure there would be so many new to the cause.
