  2. Correct. Silva should be judged on his 18th place, he got Hull to 18th, up 2 places. He did not however , nearly get them to 17th ( and therefore safety) as some have claimed. Is it really that hard to understand? Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk
  3. Latest Labour hypocrisy. Attacking Tories for bringing in ID checks to prevent voter fraud. However, it’s been pointed out that you have to show photo ID to attend some Labour Party meetings and they also legislated for ID checks to vote in Northern Ireland. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk
  4. They’re clearly relevant when debating whether you “nearly avoided relegation”. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk
  5. If I posted that Puel nearly finished 7th, then the number of points off 7th is a valid point. It was posted that Silva nearly saved Hull from relegation, I merely pointed out that this was in fact, untrue. They were nearer safety when he took over. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk
  6. Here you go. This is pretty much the response you get when you dare suggest we up our game in regards of atmosphere. Unfortunately we have far to many who turn up at home and sit on their hands waiting to be entertained. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk
  7. An old fashioned idea would be for every team to play each other twice and then keep a tally or a league table. The best team would be the one that finished top, the second best team finishes second etc etc. Much better than the complicated Saints web method, where you measure points above relegation , or goals scored, or excitement at matches. Me I’m a bit old fashioned and stick to the old fashioned method. Under Lawrie we were second best, under Koeman 6th best, under Puel 8th best etc etc. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk
  8. Careful, you can’t write this. When I contrasted Palace fans Monday with ours Saturday I got accused of blaming the fans for our performances, being a wum, and being wrong because Palace actually lost. Some on here don’t seem to grasp the fact that the whole home support getting behind the side for 90+ mins may just nick us an extra point, a point that could make all the difference. Of course it may not help, but I’ve yet to see any side play worse because of a vocal hostile home atmosphere. I can’t recall one manager or player asking supporters to pipe down their support because it’s putting them off and making them play worse. So the worst that can happen is no difference,and the best,we play better and maybe pick up an extra point or two. We’ve 2 options, sit there waiting for some scintillating attacking football to up the atmosphere, or try and create some ourselves that may inspire the players a bit.

  9. Exactly. 3 points from safety in Jan, relegated 6 points adrift. Yet the story some are selling is that they were down & out, and he did remarkable job nearly keeping them up. His spell and Watford was on a par with the 2 previous managers, both judged as failures. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk
  10. As would every single team outside the top 6. Poch would also have taken that when he was manager of Southampton. Of course his 8th was the greatest 8th the top flights ever seen and Puels the worst. And it was so much harder in the cups in those faraway days, than the easy run Puel had.

  12. Ignorance personified. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk
  13. It won’t be Eddie Howe Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk
  14. Why does us winning at Newcastle defy logic. Our away form is pretty good and their home form is poor, they’ve actually gained the same number of home points as us. I’m not saying we’ll win, but it’ll hardly defy logic if we do. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk
  15. Good, if Swansea are “ pretty much safe” with 30 points, we only need 2 more and we’re pretty much safe. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk
  16. No Roy’s fault. Should have tightened up at 2-0 & took off one of the forwards. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk
  17. And lose !!!!!! Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk
  18. I am not blaming the fans, all I am saying is it’s better to create a fantastic Palace like atmosphere in our remaining 3 home games, than the dire atmosphere we’ve had the past year. Will it make us play better, maybe, maybe not. Will it make us play worse, no. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk
  19. They lost their first seven games, without scoring a goal and I doubt they just sat their waiting to be entertained. The way I look at it, we have 3 home games left. Should we A) Get behind the side as Palace fans have tonight Or B) Wait until we’re served up decent football and then get behind the team. Which do you think will help the cause more, A or B?

  20. People are clearly watching this and taking note of the attacking intent & set up of the palace side. I hope they’re also noting the atmosphere & support the team are getting from the Palace fans. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk
  21. Pogba caused that, tried a Hollywood pass & gave it away cheaply Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk
  22. I don’t know about bad person. A ****ing classless twt more like. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk
  23. **** me. Can people read? I’ve quoted my post. IT WAS TIM SHERWOOD THAT SAID THE ATMOSPHERE WAS TOXIC, not me. Try reading then understanding what’s written before jumping up and down. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk
  24. This is just moaning for the sake of it. He started with Gabbi for the first few games, god imagine the uproar if he’d started with Charlie instead. Once it became apparent that Gabbi wasn’t cutting the mustard Charlie came in from the cold, before getting injured. Had he not got injured, he’d have been playing every week. God you’ll be moaning our genius manager has only started Sims once next Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk
  25. Anyone see Goals on Sunday where Tim Sherwood said similar, yeah I know, skate and failed manager. But he said the players need the supporters, the atmosphere is toxic, and we’re better off playing away from home. Someone said in reply, I think it was Kammy , that we’re sat there waiting for something to happen, for the players to inspire us, rather than visa versa. I’m sure it’ll get dismissed on here, but one thing I know to be absolutely true is no team plays worse when 100% of The support get behind the side 100% of the time. If we put our misgivings over the management and over certain players or style of play for the last 3 home games, it won’t make us play worse. It could in fact nick us an unexpected point or win that keeps us up. One thing for sure, Huddersfield, Palace, Boscombe & Brighton supporters will be. Whereas us stoke , West Brom & West Ham probably won’t. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk
