Great news that KWP is back. The fullbacks are so important in the way we play.

All over the place as usual.

Obviously we want to sign someone good but my point is it is easy to spend £20mill+ nowadays and get someone who turns out to be shite. Every signing carries a risk, Walcott on a free might turn out to be the best option even if he’s on relatively high wages.

Bambi on Ice! Walcott's finishing isn't great, but neither is Redmond's - I can't think of any aspect of Redmond's game that is better than Theo's TBH. It's amazing how all the commentators and pundits who have actually played the game have been saying how great Theo has been since his move here yet you come on here and people just slag him off. He took on more people in his first few games than I have seen Redmond beat in his entire Saints career. His movement is better, his defensive work is better, he keeps possession better. He's far from perfect but giving him a contact for next season makes way more sense than blowing £20 odd mill on some 'next big thing' from a foreign league who just ends up being shite sitting on the bench for years IMO.

Don’t be such a drama queen, we are going through a bad patch but anyone can win the cup on the day. Our problem at the moment is that due to injuries and a mental fixture schedule, Ralph’s high tempo style has completely come unstuck. Champions League will be back soon so we will be back to a game a week, get our key players back fit and we will be a decent side again.

Some of our key players badly need a rest but we’ve already fucked up our league campaign and we probably won’t go down so I would go full strength in this one. Our priority has to be to actually try and win something, whilst it’s unlikely it’s far from impossible. Plenty of teams have proved that before.

If they sack him then no more death threats - sorted.

Anyone who thinks we shouldn’t keep Walcott after that display by Redmond is a fucking idiot.

Fucking useless.

That's one good thing about VAR, ref's can't make up the same old excuses about not seeing what happened, there is no hiding place for incompetent twats like Dean and Mason anymore.

Unless we get a few of the injured back we are going to get smashed again. Luckily Newcastle are desperate for a win so will probably be more concerned with holding on than getting 4, 5 or more. Our first-teamers that are fit look like they need a rest, the schedule has been relentless and Ralph’s style it taking its toll on a very thin squad.

I doubt they will overturn it, VAR means they don't have the 'didn't see it' excuse anymore. Overturning it will basically mean they are admitting their officials are incompetent.

That's the bit that really pissed me off, he seemed to stand there for a minute staring at a freeze frame which would tell him fuck all.

The cunt didn’t want to be at the club before tonight’s horror show, fuck him.

That penalty decision was shocking, almost as bad as the Villa one.

I’d send the team out licking door handles tomorrow.

Ralph is just fucking clueless when we go down to 10 men. The stats don’t lie.

This.

A club that loves getting dicked 0-9?

The lack of depth in our squad is shocking.

The ball is two feet wide in that freeze frame.

And there was nothing ‘miss-timed’ about it, what he did was deliberate.

At least if we lose 10-0 they will stop banging on about the Leicester result.

He made no attempt to get the ball, who knows what he was thinking.

He’s supposed to be a professional footballer, he deserves a beating for what he did.
