They obviously see it as a worthwhile investment. Pay a bit to get to a country where they feel they can feel safe, work hard and make a better life for themselves.

We must have a brilliant set of players then because Ralph kept this lot up comfortably season after season despite the fact they were underperforming.

Surely we're are better off having richer immigrants? The usual Gammon moan is that there are here to scrounge of the state.

Doesn't surprise me with Bozo and the other morons we had in charge at the time.

To keep the numbers down to avoid the NHS being overstretched I guess. Hopefully the inquiry will work out if the Tories got it right or not, looks like they definitely fucked up over care-homes though from what I have seen so far.

To be fair, whilst I don't like to defend the Conservatives, governments always use scare tactics for public health issues, that's why cigarettes have SMOKING KILLS on them not 'Have a few fags a day and you might be fine'. 'Deploy' was probably just a poor choice of words for launching the campaign to try and stop the spread. It doesn't mean the whole new variant was made up.

Leicester at home live on Sky - I’m looking forward to this one like I’d did my vasectomy. Just want to get it out of the way and hopefully it will be successful and not too painful. Genuinely don’t give a fuck what team he plays, I have zero expectation and at the moment don’t even like any of our players so if the cunt Vardy stuffs three past us I won’t even feel a hint of disappointment, it will just a normal Saturday to me. COYR.

I don't buy that, it was the same for both teams so is perfectly fair. VAR could quite easily have awarded us two penalties if Grimsby had two thick tossers playing at centre back like we had.

What's his contract situation? He could obviously do a decent job for us next season in the Championship if he is still ours.

Fuller wasn’t even at the club when we got relegated from the Prem, we had Crouch, Phillips, Best, Camera and Ormerod to choose from up front.

Complete cluster-fuck from day one. I can’t remember a squad ever being in such a mess, £120mill odd spent and you still struggle to think of a a starting eleven that could win a Premier League match. Last time we went down you at least thought there was a team in there somewhere if the manager got it right, this lot are just a mess. We will be bottom by a distance.

1. Mara 2.Aribo 3. Lyanco

Mental that we lost to that shite, we were shit but Grimsby were shocking. Basically gifted the game by our two thick wanker centre backs and we were too shit to fight our way back.

The lack of investment by the previous owner started the rot, Ralph was a good manager turd polishing for years.

Ralph was a fucking genius for keeping these useless cunts in the Prem year after year.

Embarrassing.

Might as well sack this cunt and hire an actual manager while we have a slight chance of staying up.

Mara is so shit it is funny.

So Northern Ireland is is the brilliant, unique situation of having access to the UK and EU Single market - the situation we were all in Pre-Brexit.

Not sure why. In theory we are well placed for promotion next year. A lot of young players with potential under contract who will either stay or fetch a decent fee, plus proven Championship players like Adams and Armstrong who will not exactly be sought after by Premier League clubs. I agree with what Michael Dawson said on Soccer Saturday, no one wants the Southampton managers job now but the will be the best job in the Championship next year.

It's giving him that chance that has got us relegated.

I don’t think Ralph lost the players, they are just shit. When he was sacked we were in the relegation zone yes but we were only 3 points off 12th with 24 games left to play. Given the state of the squad that was probably doing ok.

I think we would be in a better position now if we had kept Ralph on. The results last year were bad but Ralph never had this shower of shite squad anywhere near being relegated in any of his previous seasons.

A bit harsh on Lavia but apart from that I agree with the OP. Should have spent the same but on 4 or 5 quality players in the summer, would probably now be mid-table with Ralph still in charge.

Love it they get smashed 4 or 5. I want to see some fat geordie cunts crying.
