If you made me chose an 11, I'd go with something like this (based purely on their form that season, hence no Beattie, Tadic etc.) Niemi Telfer - Yoshida - Hoedt - Bertrand Prutton - Romeu - Hojbjerg Svensson Crouch - Phillips I'd say our current team is worse. In 04/05 we actually beat Pompey (twice) and Liverpool, whereas this lot haven't had an impressive result all season. They were hopeless but seemed to be trying more than our current shower of sh*te.

He is neither outraged nor attacking. That said I would be interested in reading the book, personally.

I see our former loan striker, Peter Madsen, is in a spot of bother.

That'll have them sh*tting a few bricks.

Most Chinese fans supported Man Utd, until Chelsea became better of course. Now they support Man City. Why anyone thinks they'd care about a team in the bottom half of the Championship I have no idea.

He has no managerial experience whatsoever and, to be brutally honest, hardly comes across as the brightest spark.

Because he is a useless showpony with a sh*t attitude who’s only contribution is fancy skills and running at people. Once a season or so a hilarious defender like Nyom will get involved, tackle his own team mate and Sofie-Anne will score a worldy. The rest of the season he just goes missing and throws a diva strop.

Lard has a bizarre contempt for anything Adkins achieved whilst he was here, repeatedly banging on about how we didn’t win the League, even though we did during his tenure in League 1 and missed out to Reading by less than a point (if you include our GD being 11 better) in the Championship. He no doubt thinks 4-0 wins are the minimum Hull should be achieving with their superior squad.

Pied was just Puel's Martina/Telfer/Jermaine Wright. He will be first out the door when his contract expires.

He'll be 34, severely lacking in match fitness and won't have any particular motivation other than money. No thanks.

Sunderland and West Ham were absolutely hopeless in both those games. It's like using this season's Everton game in defence of Pellegrino. I don't think we were organised, we just sat back. Inevitably that helped us concede fewer goals, at the expense of being hopeless up front. An organised team would grind out a few decent results against top teams. Aside from the cup semi against a sub standard Liverpool, we just sat back and accepted defeat against pretty much anyone decent. Without looking, I'm guessing all those questions are something about 8th, a cup final and not having Mané and Pelle, which has already been explained to death on here.

This bunch of useless bottle jobs lose at home to teams like Palace and Leicester. Never in a million years will they get past Chelsea and United. Chelsea will be much more up for it tomorrow than last week and win comfortably.

Have a crack at answering this one question: Did you enjoy watching us play last season?

A very promising player being poorly managed IMO. Remember how bad Schneiderlin and Lallana when we got relegated to League 1? Along came Pardew, Adkins and some quality team mates and they were decent players. Him and Romeu should be a rock solid midfield duo but it just hasn't happened. Yet.

I'd welcome him back with open arms next season but sadly I can't see it happening. Thank goodness, I don't think I could stand losing to the fishy few (and probably finishing below them) next season

Before now I'd have prioritised staying up over the Cup. Since we're basically going down anyway, it has to be his strongest team.

Strange because we could only afford those players in the first place because we sold Lallana, Shaw, Chambers and Lovren. Were the board wrong to sell those players? Would we be better off now had we refused to sell and instead not signed the players you listed? Should we have stuck with Wigley because Redknapp obviously wasn't the right man for us? What about Hughes? If he loses the last 4 games and ends up with 1 point from a possible 24, does that by default mean Pellegrino was a good manager and shouldn't have been sacked? What if Pellegrino had done a Ranieri and won the League? Would it still have been wrong to sack Puel?

IMO Leave Gabbi - Don't think he is happy here. Austin - Big wages Boufal - Will go back to France probably Forster - Someone bottom half of the Prem will take him. Lemina - Back to Italy JWP - Wouldn't be that surprised if someone like Spurs tried to get him as an English squad player. Bertrand - Probably Liverpool Tadic - No way he's staying, had enough here. Carrillo - Bye then Maybe Hoedt - Doesn't exactly scream 'too good for the Championship' Yoshida - Might be happy with regular football. Cedric - Can't see many takers in England, possibly Spain or Portugal. Redmond - Would be half decent in that League Hojberg Romeu Stay Long, Davis, Stephens - Nobody will want him in the Prem. McCarthy - Decent Championship 'keeper

Wages will dictate most of our first team leaving and Austin is one of our highest earners.

If only Leicester had a decent creative midfielder and a goal scoring forward, they wouldn’t be playing like this.

On the flip side, Barbara Bush was bowled out for 92.

You said we can't claim the moral high ground, well we can. Every government is hypocritical and I'm not disputing that May/Cameron are any different but we have the moral high ground over Putin/Assad. No, it's not about Trumps love of Syrian children. It's about stopping Russia from thinking they can prop up brutal regimes who are willing to use chemical weapons on civilians, be it in Syria or anywhere else.

I hate this, "we're just as bad as them," argument. We aren't using chemical weapons against our own civilians in our own streets. Neither are we giving military support to a government which is. With regards to that story, I'm much more inclined to believe our government was simply incompetent in accurately moderating the sales of these chemicals, by a third party, rather than maliciously selling chemical weapon ingredients to a dictator. Also, journalists who criticise our government don't keep dying in tragic accidents/suicides/heart attacks.

It was the right decision to allow him to move on and nothing has changed. The fact that he is having an average season at West Brom (I’d be against him getting double figures in the league) doesn’t really scream ‘the one that got away’. I’d have sold him, Austin and Long in summer and brought in two better (in Austin’s case read ‘fitter’) strikers. We didn’t and now we are where we are. In reality I don’t think any realistic targets we could have signed up front would have done much under MoPe,. So poor has been the football, I reckon Kane would be struggling for goals in this team.

Watch most of them leave when we get relegated and miraculously perform much better elsewhere.
