well that’s exactly why it’s a tough decision. Do you stop Liverpool winning the league? Although as funny as hell it would hardly be fair !

if that was the case they would have a huge decision to make in terms of cancelling this season altogether, freezing the tables as they currently stand or extending the season. They could probably extend it until mid June but any longer? They can’t delay the new season - IF the health situation is ok again - because that would impact the (probably) re-arranged Euros next summer. Obviously the health issue is most important, nobody can argue that surely, but for the governing bodies it’s gonna be a nightmare when we can return to normality as to what action they take.

Niether is being stuck with Chairman Gao for the next ten years !

You can be accused of trolling all they like but the fact is what you’ve said here is 100% correct.

Step forward a consortium run by one N. Cortese In all seriousness I hope this is true. Get rid of this non entity of an owner.

Simple - declining quality of - a - managers b - players

yes, in a nutshell that’s about it. Must admit watching the highlights I lost the sense of injustice I had at the game.

Such a shame for Spurs, karma is a real ***** eh Jose?

I love listening to Keane.......not sure I would want to be the guy asking him the questions mind

****in hell, they can’t believe that bull surely? oh well, looks like our game against Arsenal will be re-arranged

Carragher yes but I find Gary Neville just about the best around. He’s fair to everyone, even when they are playing United, and he talks a lot of sense I think.

He's not a greedy sod like Salah.......after that you are on your own good luck

Nobody criticised playing him RB last week when he kept Grealish quiet.

Given their fixtures this would be a horrendous result for Brighton.

yeah, a draw is no good to them but a decent point for us.

Why is it unrealistic to expect a professional footballer who came from Bayern Munich remember to be able to pass a ball? I like PEH but let’s be honest, he’s nowhere near as good as Morgan was and in that bad run we had back in Oct/Nov he was by and large woeful. Thankfully he has improved in the last couple of months. Hooefully he will stay because I’m not confident the club would spend the money to get anyone better which in itself is a sad reflection of where we are under this current owner.

your chronology is off yes. The painting incident was Lowe, then as you say Cortese probably didn’t like being reminded the club had a history before he arrived. That seemed to be his Achilles heel which included throwing out all the old meetings/log books from The Dell days which were thankfully recovered from a skip.

yes they were both officially appointed a while ago

He’s not top 6 club level so the “big move” if it was in this country would be what? Everton or Wolves maybe. Cant see the big boys wanting him for the kind of money the club would want. Maybe Ralph is preparing us with his “Smallbone is the future” quote in the Echo

Totally agree, think Adam Blackmore in particular does a great job covering Saints.

Excellent - Gary Neville Good - Shearer, Ian Wright, Glenn Hoddle, Roy Keane (he's a scream) OK - Jenas, Phil Neville, Souness Awful - Redknapp (any of them), Danny Murphy and from a few years back Niall Quinn Just eff Off - Jamie Carragher

fortunately for them Villa’s and Brighton’s aren’t much better, same with West Ham.

Including the club historian who clearly did not allow for extreme weather conditions affecting anyone’s performance let alone a young player like him finding his way in the English game and conditions.

I would love to see them go down. If we could assist with that, even a draw would do, with their fixtures it’s a must win for them. Given how we play away I’m quite confident, they have to come at us, they can’t sit back. And that should suit our away game down to the ground.

Limited ability, big mouth, inflated ego. My only question is how the hell has this guy been capped for Holland?
