2/18 points, no striker .....All Season, only had one anyway and Sam builds his WHOLE game plan around an injury prone single striker with no cover at the same time he spends A lot of money on Downing, when we already had that place covered. I was pragmatic enough for a while to accept BFS and his dogs shit football as a way of assuring our financial safety, he Isn,t even delivering that. His plan b, striker less football, was Sussed out after Tottenham. We have not beaten west Brom, palace, Norwich, Stoke, hull, Aston villa. I am joining the romantics I,d rather we went down with our traditions than this vastly overpaid (15th best in the world) fat sack excuse making dogsh1t of a man...I don,t think he,ll keep us up anyway.

Stay clear of other peoples business might be a good motto at the moment.


The ????s are not happy hammers.

BFS's excuses Saturday - not enough strike power.. not enough central defenders... Christmas fixture congestion tiring players out... bad luck... lack of concentration... complacency... NOT MY FAULT.


Latest wheeze is the shedding of Mladen Petric (brought in on a free as a striker while Carroll was unavailable)


In October, Petric said: "I'm a striker. I want to play and I'm sure I'll get my time on the pitch."


Three substitute appearances and no goals later he's gone. No great loss so what the fuck was he doing there in the first place??


Sadly I fear our chairpeople lack the courage to act decisively and sack him, they'd rather cringe behind their wallets and hope for the best.

Agreed, add Eto'o and Ramires to the list of dirty bastards who seem to get away with it week in week out. The odious BFS must go surely.

Has he gone yet? Most fans lost faith a few weeks back, I think he's lost the players too.....only the board to convince

And after today he can take Nolan with him - he's been getting worse by the week as a player and a Captain and today was the last straw, banned for 3 weeks now the petulant git.

I've been to three matches over the festive season, and seen a few more over the last few weeks on telly. Some real crackers but the two stinkers were the Arse/Chel (on telly) and today Arse/Cardiff, as well as getting wet as the roof is rubbish.


Is the quality of the Arse overated? or was that just an anomoly, perhaps in part due to the weather which was awful on both days


A second Arse question is as there are always thousands of empty (paid for tickets), a waiting list for season tickets, and they can in theory attract more than the ?60k capacity, why don't those not attending because they can't be arsed to leave their mansion in Herts to see a less attractive match on a rainy day, pass on their ticket to someone who does want to make the effort. I am not talking full price on Seatwave I hasten to add -better is used than wasted.


Oh and a fun anacdote now I will no longer be suprised by the ManU score as I was trying to watch it 'live' on MOTD, at WHL the only cheer on Boxing Day from the Spuds was when it was announced that WHU had gone one-nil up. Funnily enough they didn't announce 1-1, 1-2, 1-3. All credit to the Bluebird fans today for the noise they made BTW.

    • Exactly what I said, that Corbyn's group of univeristy politics far-left back benchers would have been a disaster during Covid if they had won the election. Here you go:  BBC News - Ex-union boss McCluskey took private jet flights arranged by building firm, report finds https://www.bbc.com/news/articles/cp3kgg55410o The 2019 result was considered one of the worst in living memory for Labour, not only for big swing of seats away from them but because they lost a large number of the Red-wall seats- generational Labour seats. Why? Because as Alan Johnson put it so succinctly: "Corbyn couldn't lead the working class out of a paper bag"! https://youtu.be/JikhuJjM1VM?si=oHhP6rTq4hqvYyBC
    • Agreed and in the meantime its "joe public" who has to pay through higher prices. We're talking all over the shop from food to insurance and everything in between.  And to add insult to injury they "hurt " their own voters/supporters through the actions they have taken. Sadly it gets to a stage where you start thinking about leaving London and even exiting the UK for good, but where to go????? Sad times now and ahead for at least the next 4yrs, hence why Govt and Local Authorities need to cut spending on all but essential services.  An immediate saving, all managerial and executive salaries cannot exceed and frozen at £50K Do away with the Mayor of London, the GLA and all the hanging on organisations, plus do away with borough mayors and the teams that serve them. All added beauracracy that can be dispensed with and will save £££££'s  
    • The minimum wage hikes on top of the NICs increases have also caused vast swathes of unemployment.
    • Exactly - a snap election will make things even worse. Jazzer - say you get a 'new' administration tomorrow, you're still left with the same treasury, the same civil servants, the same OBR, the same think-tanks and advisors (many labour advisors are cross-party, Gauke for eg). The options are the same, no matter who's in power. Labour hasn't even changed the Tories' fiscal rules - the parties are virtually economically aligned these days.  But Reeves made a mistake in trying too hard, too early to make some seismic changes in her first budget as a big 'we're here and we're going to fix this mess, Labour to the rescue' kind of thing . They shone such a big light on the black hole that their only option was to try to fix it overnight. It was a comms clusterfuck.  They'd perhaps have done better sticking to Sunak's quiet, cautious approach, but they knew the gullible public was expecting an 24-hour turnaround miracle.  The NIC hikes are a disaster, I think they'll be reversed soon and enough and they'll keep trying till they find something that sticks.
