Staggering that there are posters here that are okay with us being relegated

We're not going get relegated ffs.

Only fellers still waking up with PTSD from the late 90s think that

Nobody was calling for Carlos head ffs. And we got 59 points, it was light years better than this crap.

We lost nearly every home game though

 

[TheBigIguana]

well that's kind of the problem init because everyone else was shocking as well.

big headless galoot

I don't think we were shocking though. We weren't good enough and should be winning those. But playing tight games with decent teams is about our level.

Looking forward to Wednesday in a morbidly curious way now. If he's still here and the result goes the way that we all think it will then the atmosphere will be evil. I reckon we might actually get to finally witness "OPERATION GOODISON EXICISE" in full effect!

Kean didn’t want to play for us

Neither does anyone judging by the last 10 games.

Thought I was on ignore Jurgen?

I need a ruling from the mods first

This appointment didn't make sense at the beginning. Fans literally protested his appointment, it divided an already fractured and hurting fanbase. There's no way this story has a happy ending under Benitez, sadly.

Needs to go and Moshiri can pack his bags too. Absolute gobshite is Farhad for putting us in this position to begin with.

he’s not assed ( i don’t think ) about fans as who even employs a ex RS who belittled us? and the fans never wanted him to begin with?

they don’t like the tactics of passing sideways

I think we can safely say that anyone saying this on here is a Kopite?

 

[DL100]

I really don’t see how he turns this around now, there are too many fans hoping he gets sacked and secretly or openly happy it’s turning out the way it has done. Doomed form the start. Very odd.

 

[Colonel Getafe]

I'm not sure how going crawling to a washed up dinosaur in China was not a risk over an established PL manager.

Because 17 years ago he won a penalty shoot out.

 

[LouReedwalkonthewildside]

Remember when they all said e would make us hard to beat.


That was a lie.

Hard to beat, have players up for it and would give certain players a kick - up the arse.

you don't?

dont even know how to respond to that tbh

 

[DL100]

There were loads wanting Potter Bielsa and even Benitez to come in as a better option than Ancelotti.

At this point I think the coach is irrelevant. Until some of these players are out im not interested in judging any manager particularly. Some very competent managers have been made to look like complete idiots by these fools.
