Ralph doesn’t sign players. He will no doubt have some input but it’ll very much be driven by what we can afford.

Nope.

We have never at any point this season been close to relegation. We sank back towards the bottom three in the final third of the season but we never looked like being dragged into it. People keep saying, "well what if we’d been even worse?" Or more bizarrely, "what if there were another 3 fixtures?"

Of all the people to pick a fight with, PV wouldn't be at the top of my list. Reminds me of that clown who broke into Duncan Ferguson's house.

There should be a rule; if any supporters enter the pitch before the away players have left, their teams gets disqualified. It’s happening again at Port Vale.

Being sh*t and being the best defender we have aren’t mutually exclusive. Quite the opposite.

No, he’s saying you will only able to wash them with Surf detergent.

Vale against Swindon goes to E.T. Remember when we couldn’t buy a point against Swindon for love nor money in League 1.

I agree, I’ve never ever felt like it’d be them that were going down. They had the players to stick four wins out of five together, even against Chelsea or Man United.

If I were Zelenskiy I'd just refuse to negotiate with Putin from now on. I'd tell him his army will soon collapse anyway and he'll be left with nothing, so there really is nothing to be gained through dialogue. It may be optimistic but I'd just tell Putin to enjoy his last 6 months as president before they hang him from a lamp post.

"Only Ashley Barnes knows if that was deliberate." I think a few of us can also have a guess.

McCarthy is sufficiently capable of being backup to whoever our number one 'keeper is next season. He will make mistakes and be a weakness when he plays but nobody significantly better than him is going to sit on the bench at Southampton.

Davis doesn’t have to play Premier League football every week. I’m sure he looked excellent in his cameo last night but he wouldn’t be of much use to us right now.

It’s a nonsense argument, like saying Diego Forlan was good for Athleti, so SAF must have been a bad manager.

We set up to frustrate them and it was working, we were drawing. For weeks people have been complaining about Ralph been too stubborn, being too easy to play against and not changing his formation. He does that, it was working and when we went behind he changed it. In the away game he had a plan to try and get at them and attack, we ended up 4-0 down at half time. Klopp is one of the best managers in the world. Their ‘keeper alone cost more than the team we put out last night, what exactly were you expecting?

No he isn’t, he’s just moved to a much less demanding League, like Fonte. He left at the right time.

How is 1-1 with Liverpool "not working"?

My heart says don't go back, it'll never be as good as you remember it.

It’s not bollocks, that’s exactly the point. The fact that someone would elect themselves as being more socially aware than the average person is in itself presumptuous and likely to cause irritation. It leads to narrow minded thinking and the assumption that if someone disagrees with you, they’re not part of the socially aware elite.

Let’s be positive; this will be the last time we’re ever forced to watch some of our useless players.

Well Konate was £36, that’s basically triple the cost of anyone we’ve got on the pitch. Firmino, Milner, Gomez, Matip and Jota are hardly cloggers. Even their reserve LB Tsimikas was £12m. In fact, which players do you feel we should be embarrassed to lose 2-1 to?

And win quite comfortably.

Their ‘keeper cost more than our team.

It’s 1-2 against Liverpool for crying out loud. This is a team which put 9 past Man United over both legs this season. Their players are much better than ours and will win four out of five. He gets continually slated for not changing from his 4-2-2-2, he does that, plays a 4-5-1 which is hard to break down and still gets slated. He gets slated for not starting Romeu but we haven’t been world beaters since he came on. The guy can’t win.

I think she might be going on my approved list of nasty women.
