Carlos needs to go (should have been booted after the derby day debacle) but there has been an undercurrent on here for a long time. Turns out the undercurrent was right, unluckily.

The whole thing is falling apart at a worryingly rapid rate. We are directionless...well I suppose plummeting down the Championship is a direction.

In fact, I'd go as far to say a bit of a sweeping generalised statement. Aimed at those that disagree with your viewpoint. They made their own thread last week where they were all cracking each other off. I could quite easily go back and highlight their virtually totally negative contribution to this forum over the past years/months but do you know what, they aren't worth the effort at this time on a Saturday night. I'm in the process of collecting some really nice food from an Armenian restaurant to take round to a pretty lady's house where we will eat together before it turns a bit rude in front of a burning log fire. I'll leave them to sit at home getting aroused while they buzz off getting upvotes whilst celebrating our current rough patch far more than they celebrated our best couple of seasons in almost 20 fuckingyears. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think social media and the internet has given people a platform to spout bile, it’s so easy to go off on one with no reprecussion and it takes absolutely no effort yes saying he’s “a effin tail” etc isn’t fair but don’t tell me that isn’t a reoccurring theme with managers across the country over the decades. It’s the industry they’re in and it isn’t gonna change. Remember that guy who scrunched up his season ticket and threw it at the manager?

Always people who just love a crisis, that suits an agenda. But all they are just opinions at the end of the day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He suggested Fletcher had a knee injury but he clearly thought - we’ve probably won this so let’s rest him for Wembley. In the previous home game against Huddersfield it was Winnall playing between defence and attack that shook things up a bit and if we were to make a sub he should’ve been the one to come on. Rhodes was brought on because of how important he should’ve been rather than what the team needed at the time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sonny Posted December 16, 2017 Share Posted December 16, 2017 He was getting stick all last season and we finished 4th. Don’t even know why that would be a contentious point. Folk wanted him gone after a Hull and beyond. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Never realised we had that many Portuguese coaches until Carlos was banished to the stands. I counted 5 yesterday, and I have no idea who they are or what value the add. Our pants are firmly round our ankles, and we are being gently lubed. Think we are beyond 'gently lubed' - I think 'properly rogered' fits the bill 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
