You seen who you’re replying to?? Weird goes with the territory

yeah I know...

I think the end of the world is nigh, One and Only and Dave singing of the same hymn sheet, its either that or another group of individuals are enjoying laughing at us.

What's wrong with Townsend? Same amount of goals and assists as Richarlison.

Begovic is a 2nd choice keeper and Lonergan is 3rd choice. So they barely count.

They count because we as a club have a squad full of deadwood we cannot give away, so going and adding to that with further deadwood is criminal.

I appreciate you haven't defended the rondon signing, least we can agree on that.

Townsend on a free was alrite, but let's get it right he's a plodder, odd worldy goal and odd decent cross he offers nothing.

What an weird way to look at it on the run we are on at the moment.

It's not a weird way to look at things. As long as we're within touching distance of last seasons position, we're fine.

On the positive side, one of them will disappear when their Iberian mate does.

The other one will pick out another contrarian cause du jour

Its December mate... shall we compare where we where last December to this December? to make it a little more even?

Compare where we are at the end of the season, with the season before... it means nothing right now.

For reference, 5th in the table with 23 points from 13 games... that's probably a fairer reflection right?

Nothing wrong with our worst form in 3 decades. We're fine.

You lads from Birkenhead certainly have a neat turn of phrase.

We try

Tbh am not deluded, I have watched this football team for 40 years and what we are being served right now is 100% up there with the worst I have seen.

Do you see a manager capable of setting up the team to win, or make impactful decisions when things are going wrong? I absolutely don't.

We are only that close to the top half as we had a half decent start, and don't forget we picked up 7 points without either DCL or Richardson when they where both injured. So yeah, its not about injuries... the set up, plan, tactics and everything that happens with in game management he is absolutely awful with.

I praised him then, but he has gone rapidly down hill and I am absolutely gobsmacked that you are trying to change that into any other agenda. Ive always thought you weren't a windup mate, that you had the best interests at heart, but if you genuinely believe Benitez is the man, I now know the answer.

Slight EDIT - I HATED Sam Allardyce, but you know what you where getting from him, what we are getting at the moment is 10 times worse. Tactical Genuis my backside, he is deluded and completely stuck up his own behind.

Yes. Less than a week ago.

 

[chazzle_dazzle]

Yes. Less than a week ago.

Dave, 1 win in 12 is it... 1. Did we get beat yesterday? Did you see that then....?

Whatever fits the agenda though mate.

 

[BirkenheadBlue]

Yes. Less than a week ago.

Still no comment on your lying?

If Eddie Nkieta or Aubamayang could finish he would have gone by now.

He’s got to go this week.

 

[Lee Smith]

I’m surprised at Chico here. You can tell that this is a wind up, and in no way true. As if Benitez would only order a “banquet for one”

 

[windymiller]

"3 pts off the top half of the table" lol

We were 3 points off top 4, then 3 points off European qualification, then we were on similar points to clubs at "our level", now we are 3 points off top half. Soon it'll be 3 points off 14th, then 3 points to safety. The fact that the pro-Benitez lobby have to lower their bar week after week should be telling them something but apparently it's water off a duck's back and that somehow Benitez is going to get the players and fans back on side and winning again on the never never.

The thing that cracks me up the most about that lot is that their favourite insult is that everyone else should "wake up" and not be "delusional". And they say it's only Americans who don't understand irony.

 

[Rudolf Hucker]

Has he gone yet?
