Dark Munster

The fear we’ll become in a season or two the next Swansea, Stoke or Cardiff is why so many of us are pissed off with this nonentity mid table manager appointment.

Um, no. But swap their manager with our plonker and then I’d agree.

That's the good news. The bad news is Rasmus "If it's not broken, break it" Ankersen is still very much with us, and I believe very much in control of major decisions, albeit less openly after his disastrous ones last season.

It's looking like it'll be a two horse race between Surrey and Essex.

Me too. The day after the season ends.

FIFY!

True. Thankfully we have no hope!

Impact injury?

We've just come off a win. I wonder what the poll results would be like if we'd lost yesterday?

Aribo’s improvement from a useless slow jogger to a good dynamic midfielder seemed to coincide with him shaving off all his hair! Maybe Mara should give it a try.

I'd be gobsmacked if Brighton have any interest in Russell. Unlike us, they are currently well run, with consistently very good managerial and player recruitments. Why would they have the slightest interest in a rigid, stubborn, mid-table Championship nobody who is incapable of getting his teams to defend properly, and seriously underachieving with one of the strongest squads in the division?

AI Donald Trump endorses Joe Biden for president:

I'm not sure about that. Given that he has the worst GK record in the division, maybe they'll give "agent Baz" a big cheer.

If we'd finished third having given Leeds and Leicester a good run for their money, finishing a few points behind them, we'd be disappointed but would have few complaints, especially if they both finish on 100 or more points. But we're going to finish miles behind them, and Ipswich too, who have a far inferior squad. Mainly due to his frequent poor tactics and baffling line ups. That's not good enough.

Damn, I saw the title of this thread and thought it may be news that Russell had been sacked and Dragan had told Rasmus to pack his bags.

Have another look at your notes: we're in the Championship, a massive drop off in quality from the PL. Not that I'm defending Jones, he was an appalling manager. Unfortunately his successors RS and RM are not much better, which is a damning indictment of Ankersen and his SR team.

Great post, sums up Rasmus F*cking Ankersen and his SR clown show perfectly. (I ported this quote over from the Blackburn match thread because I think it belongs here for posterity.)

With a bit of luck he won't be our Russ next season.

That's exactly the way I see it. He was (rightly) crucified for his Jones disaster, so went 180 degrees with a "Pep lite". He's desperate to be hailed as the genius who thinks outside the box by bringing in a manager that nobody else would seriously consider. The only box associated with deluded Rasmus is a box of frogs.

Our performances on the pitch suggest otherwise.

If only we had someone at the club who could take over with transfers. Oh shit.

Man Utd with their billions can’t match City, so it’s ludicrous for relative paupers like us to try. We should play to our strengths. Not a difficult concept, except for those deluded twats RM and Rasmus.

Not much point now since the remaining games don’t mean much. Plus it gives RM an excuse to bring back his buddy Manning.
