Don’t disagree he’s a player but he’s still an irritating little sh*t. Clearly not a skill they teach in Dutch football. We’ve no replacement for Jimmy Mac unfortunately but we need to find one for next season.

JWP went to Oaklands Catholic School in Portsmouth. In my day it was full of self-entitled pr!cks and it seems little changed when he went there. Mason Mount went to my old school, so I can lay claim to the fact that my school still produced better players

I am informed that Ward-Prowse is very down-to-earth,very humble and very polite.

When Hasenhuttl arrived at the club he informed Ward-Prowse that to get into the side he had to be more aggressive,make tackles and to be a presence in midfield.

What's the expression, a lady in the living room, a whore in the bedroom!

Last night's game was a - Dead Rubber.

OK, so our play in large chunks was - Dead Awful.

But, some of the hysterical, OTT comments and reactions by some on here were - Dead Ugly.

If a game is broadcast I tend not to follow the thread, but going through it this morning made it difficult to understand how folk, despite becky's valiant efforts to bring some order, could get so wound up over a game that had no real significance.

I want us to win every game we play. I had us down for a win last night. I was very disappointed with the result.

Get over it. Next year will be different.

 


Dad and I watched games standing on the muddy slope of the Holmesdale Road end. He cheered and I rattled.

Very disappointing last night. I know nothing as such to play for but against Southampton with the fewest points gained this calendar year than the likes of Sheff Utd anD WBA expected alot more.
The centre backs need a change Kouyate needs a rest and Dann i am afraid past it, put Cahill, Tomkins even Kelly a go.
Would give Butland a run out and replace Riedeweld and Ayew with McCarthy and Schlupp.
Wasnt hopeful when saw the line up and Ings starting but getting another early goal should have set us up.
Very poor.

It's not really a dead rubber. We can finish the season 12th - 17th. The team that finishes 12th gets about £10m more than the team that finishes 17th, money which helps enable next year to be different.

 


26th January 2010 - Enter Administration
2nd May 2010 - D-Day 1 - Survival at Hillsborough
1st June 2010 - D-Day 2 - Survival at Lloyds
7th June 2010 - CPFC2010 exchange contracts.

Yes, OK, I agree there's a place to play for. And the money that goes with it.

But I just don’t get the level of hysteria it created on here. I'd understand it if we were playing to avoid relegation.....or to win The Cup!

Agree on this one Sprite and his petulance will cost him a move to one of the big clubs as is his wish. In my opinion he will stay with us and hopefully a new manager will sort him out. Still has a lot to offer but lost the plot currently.

Glad to see we can agree on something DD !

The 'level of hysteria' is a build up of frustration. A combination of poor tactics, selection, boring football and total lack of effort from the team several times this season and loads last.
There are very specific arguments made that hold quite a lot of water. For instance: Dann, we've all loved him, but his time is up unfortunately. He just doesn't have the physicality for the game at this level anymore. Is Kelly really so bad? He should be somewhat fitter than Dann and always puts in a shift. Why not pick him? It was obvious what was going to happen to Dann.
Benteke - starts to score when his contract is up. What are we genuinely supposed to make of that? He's been nothing but lazy for two seasons. If not lazy, then just rubbish.
Luka as Captain - what qualities is he showing? He went on a jolly during Covid. He's fallen out with his national team and he offers very little for us. A squad player perhaps, no way a Captain.

What got me the most was the Sheffield performance - look at my post on the thread - I'm not a pro. However, I could see we gifted Sheffield chances from set pieces - they should have scored from two corners. We needed to work on that quite clearly, did we? No, we clearly don't work on set pieces. We let an easy corner in. What a surprise - we're basically the worst team in the league (or thereabouts) at set pieces. As we were last season too. Why? It has to be a coaching issue. Apparently we see no reason to be any good at set pieces. How absolutely ridiculous. We had a lot of the same team with Pulis, or similar, and were the best team at set pieces. So we've gone from best to worst.

What else? The same system, nearly every game. How does that challenge the opposition? There has to be other plans but we don't have any. The main thing demonstrated by that is that there must be some pretty useless managers out there if they don't know how we will line up and play. They must be downright amateurish.

There are plenty of other things to say but it's probably getting rather long now.

 


Red and Blue Army!

Looking at the fixtures, if we don’t beat Villa I fear we may end up in 16th place .... the only consolation being we will still be above Brighton!

Totally nonsensical,other teams give you nothing.You seem to resent the fact, we have been mid table all season on merit.

That would be your opinion good Sir. 2 in 10 and win ratio of ~ 1 in 3 says it all for me. Not good enough.
