who will take them? they are on PL wages and big fat contracts.

Yes I think so, doesn't make it a bad thing to my mind

Its pleasing that I havent had the usual negative posts about him. Perhaps more people realise he wasnt that poor and would improve the team a great deal.

Im not sure what these intend to do. They dont seem to understand whatever craphole we play at fans want to see winning football teams who play a bit of attractive football. To some the quality of beer, pies matter but mean nothing if they are not entertained. My biggest non footballing gripe is how we make every game a home game for the opposition. The Northam do their best, but if they g ad stand elsewhere in the ground , especially in the Chapel they will hear how their efforts are drowned by the opposing teams fans. Rupert made a major error when planning the stadium by allowing the design to have the away fans sited where they are. I have always wished for the ground to have a kop like end where the fans suck the ball in. It will never happen, if I had been a billionaire I would demolish SMS and start again with a design that would really give the home team advantage. I would make sure the bricks I have in the stadium wall are preserved and put in the new ground though Lol

In what world does he think people like him are the majority? "It seems to me now that minorities in this world are telling the majorities what they can and cannot think. I’m for equality but they cannot foist their ideas on people."

what happened to JWP and his runs into the box. It was a good idea and worked, then we stop doing it. To my mind I dont feel JWP is a defensive midfielder as he is not a tough tackling player breaking up the play in the old sense. Surely getting him up the pitch and asking him to make forward passes would help.

a winger each side of the pitch up top, would make them have to take some players away. The wingers are too small to do much in the box

Like him or loathe him we wouldn't be where we are now if we kept Puel.

I just dont think he is putting the money in. Whilst a billionaire is very wealthy, putting a tenth of your wealth doesnt add up.

Why he changed the team is madness. To build on the Man U result was paramount. All optimism has evaporated in an instant.

I think we will see if it is their money. The owner is a billionaire but that does not mean he can throw £100m away. I suspect we, the club has taken on the debt and perhaps that £100m may come back and haunt us

When you hand the home advantage to the away team by placing their fans in a section of the ground where they nullify ours, its always going to happen. It seems to me we give the away teams more tickets than they should be. So for say 20k sales we lose more games due to our shortterm thinking.

I will get the usual abuse on here, but Redmond created as many assists as JWP last season, added the odd goal and at least caused some excitement as he added a touch of pace. The haters will disagree but he would have been useful to us

I thought watching a Man utd player wailing and walking off very entertaining

Fortunately ive got a team to do all the work, but be there at the right time for the glory and adulation at the end

Really??? I do understand Everton (84' highbury) although my sil is a Toffee and so have soothed a bit. Stoke I have no problem with, Gordon Banks et all. I fondly recall an own goal against him from a full back launching a back pass over his head.

When I saw 'the Mathew Le Tissier position' I wondered if it was a new outlandish entry into the Karma Sutra. Fortunately it was not, I cant do those and another new one every night

Just head Den Haag seems he is playing the usual sour Man Utd managers. Apparently it wasn’t a sending off as Casemiro hadn’t been sent off in Europe in his 500 games he is totally innocen. the image I have seen shows it’s a bad challenge

I know it’s sound stupid, but in a funny way it was good we didn’t score as they may well have lifted Utd and their crowd, ok if it was last minute different.I have seen us many times play well against a big team core and that stirs the hornet nest

No he didn’t as we got a result

I have just seen this, this is now getting ridiculous 'He is superlative, he is absolutely extraordinarily good, not just as a football pundit, of course, but I think, in my 50 or so years of association with the BBC, I’ve never come across such a naturally gifted television presenter.'

I wonder if Lineker and followers will put pressure on the camera and editing crew to also walk out???

Thank you for that.

Try not to confuse these people with boat people who were escaping the Viet Cong and certain death. Whilst France is a awful place they are not under any threat. I dont know if they have changed the rules re first safe haven. No wonder our schools are in crisis and have no funds if they have to cater for 40 different languages. Tome this is a scary scenario for our future,

There are a variety of reasons for these problems. People blame the Gov for high energy bills but seem to forget that Putin has been largely responsible for that and Brexit of course is another reason. Before you say that Brexit was down to Tories, it was voted for by a large part of traditional Labour areas.
