Baird of the land

Honestly I find the whole us idea of sanctuary cities (which don’t co-operate) with federal immigration very odd to be honest.

Yep seems pretty clear to be that he has made sure he doesn't get hurt and affect his pay day elsewhere. Don't even particularly blame him as its not as if we are playing for anything other than slightly less embarassment.

I was hoping for someone with more of a track record of championship success to be honest like Cooper. His initial work in France is certainly interesting and they are clearly gambling on the potential long term benefit Let's hope he can hit the ground running and get the team performing at the top of the league, which will be the expectation.

KWP still out with the blue flu i see

Yep top three in championship are all experienced with success under their belts. Maybe being unconventional will work out but not sure I see the value in terms of risk vs reward.

Cleverly 'seen as one of the most promising english coaches', By who?, certainly not watford who sacked him for a highly mediocre league position.

I understood the approach last week against City but i have no clue why we have not tried to be slightly more positive today. An expected goals of 0, funny.

That doesn't seem the case at all. Lots of the 'on up ones' are actually not on the up, are in reality just young and bad There's a middle cohort who have experience but are still motivated and effective. Look at the top 5 places in the league this season (Farke, Parker, wilder, De Bris, Lampard are all between mid fourties and fifties)

yeah just 2/5.

Should have put more money on the everton win.

Can't say i'm thrilled by (if rumours bear any fruit) our desperation to go for as young a coach as possible.

Has onachu just been completely dropped? Does Rusk just prefer non scoring strikers KWP still has the blue flu too

Really a lot like last week’s game, except palace actually had some attacking threat.

Stupid by Mitchell but that’s a dive

Happy Henderson wasn’t sent off but that was a let’s not ruin the fa cup final decision.

Was he at saints before arsenal?

Yeah i can't see anyone paying 20M for him based on a bad showing in prem for us.

Just delusional, team with massive financial advantage complaining that we didn’t approach game as it was a level playing field

Very nice to take points off city. Didn’t expect that at all. Very good team effort. Wish we’d seen that more often.

Wonder does KWP have the blue flu

Just seen my first asian hornet. Like a wasp that's taken steroids. There goes the neighbourhood

Curious if Labour are going to run scared from all their economic principles.

1-1, vardy and tall Paul goals

I’d be happy to keep but don’t begrudge him leaving either. it’ll be interesting to see what our cb room looks like next year. I’d assume Edward’s, wood and Stephens would be locks. I wonder who in prem will spend big money on Thb but maybe someone will overlook how mediocre he’s been because of age and England cap.

there’s not a good way to play it. If they’d chosen a different set of tough choices it would just be a different group screaming blue murder.
