I'm actually excited to get rid of these players, can't wait for the season to be over so we can start again.

Some decent baseline tools to work with, but christ we need a new spine, bollocks and heart throughout this side. I wouldn't even call them bottlejobs, they're not that good.

Yep, don’t need a new arsehole though. Plenty of those.

In all serious, rather unlucky tonight. Lots of injuries and blunt tools. Players did give it a good go. But at least now we know we're down and can rebuild.

Will hate watching JWP playing for someone else next year, would love it if he stayed and we appointed an attacking manager again.

I think he needs to go and would like to see him depart. Its time.

Can't wait for him to piss off personally.......not a captain, always plays it safe and only good for free kicks around the penalty area.

Oh well, I'm genuinely looking forward to Plymouth, Ipswich, Brum, etc, and a bit of fucking hope for a change on a Saturday afternoon. 

Yup, said it before. Being a competitive team in the championship is a far better season for a fan than being completely out of depth in premier league. When going to matches feels like a chore what’s the point.

Will hate seeing JWP playing for us still. He’s not got enough for the Championship. Absolute loser mentality and no grit whatsoever. A shadow of a player compared to the midfield (e.g. Spiderman) we had when challenging for promotion last time.

So that's that then.

Hopefully Everton come down with us.

Well, good luck to Forest. I hope they stay up at the expense of Everton. 

We're a disgrace.

Obviously not, because that would involve us having a small crumb of enjoyment this season, and we all know that is forbidden.

What did anybody expect. This was our bunch of brainless headless chickens at their most incompetent. Utter rubbish. 

There is really no excuse for Selles. He's had weeks and weeks with these players, and still has them out there with no plan. No style of play. Almost as if every week he does no preparation.

There’s only 2 or 3 I’d want in the trenches with me. A lot hiding tonight. 

Loads playing hide and don't seek me. Bednarek and Lyanco gave it their all, and did ok despite the shit show at LB and RB.

He was no better than Bazunu, which is what some of us have been saying all along, when others were claiming it was criminal we hadn’t swapped them sooner.

He made an excellent save that I can remember as well as claimed and punched a few crosses. He's shit, but not as shit as Bazunu.

Bit proud of that tonight tbh. Gave it our all. 

Proud of what, exactly?

They've just let in 4 goals to a team in the bottom 3 of the league. There is nothing to be proud of, this team are an embarrassment to the City and the history of this club and will forever be remembered as our WORST ever top flight team, nothing even comes close.

Stick that in your trophy cabinet AMN.

Glad people are starting to see how little he offers us bar a decent direct free kick. James The Crab Ward-Prowse, the softest most average fucking captain in our history. 
 

Watching that Ryan Yates being a complete shithouse tonight I couldn’t help but think I wish we had a captain like that, and he’s largely crap too!

Crazy number of goals in the Prem today - we score 3 and get nothing after being so short of goals. At least played with some more urgency today in attack but did leave us open.

AMN absolutely shocking - why on earth can’t Selles see it and fix it by switching him or taking him off?

He seems to manage the team by asking ChatGPT what Pep would do - first that false nine bollocks, then getting the non-left back to drift into midfield leaving our left-hand side exposed as some crazy idea when you’re short that side. You can do that if you have Trent or John Stones with superstars to cover but not with AMN.

They’re 2 that play like they care, yet get clog on here. If Bednarek had come from Villa as an unknown he’d be hailed as a decent signing. He’s got more heart than Salisu, ABK & Colleta-Carr added together.

A team picked up at the Transfer Warehouse Wholesalers deservedly beat us home and away this season. We were horrendous in the first, and caved in lots of areas for this one too.

AMN has been shown to be pants in defensive midfield and only a little better as a full back. So, giving him the option to switch between the two was only going to end in disaster. He wasn;t up to the task, and put pressure on centre halves, of whom ABK was clearly nowhere near up to it either.

We scored a good goal. But it was one of those that comes along for us when all the planets in the sky align. We offered nothing as coherent for the rest of the game. JWP finally got a couple of decent corenrs in, and you wonder what we've been practicing all season in that department.

Forest won most of the physical battles, and had more flair and pace in Johnson and Gibbs-White than we had in our entire team. they spent £190m to buy in two squads of players. We spend £140m to enhance the one we had and got it badly wrong in a number of key areas.

We had a couple of bright spells, but we generally flatter to deceive, by either getting no advantage from any of them, or looking better because our opponents are already ahead and are dropping back.

Once again we grab a narrow defeat, whcih has been teh story of our whole season, witho no one capable from recruitment, coaching or playing staff, of improving it.

Someone posted today that Selles had said that outr biggest drawback is that we had defenders who can;t defend. He was already brought in to help fix that, when that comment was made, and has done nothing to fix it in his time as manager. We're not good enough to keep teams out, and have a disatrous transfer policy which brought in nothing to improve us in attack. So, there's no way of relieving that defensive pressure either.

Dismal from top to bottom.

Start again with what? The same owners..with probably even less money? Are they suddenly going to understand how to run a football club?

Well that's that then cigars and brandy ahoy chaps!

Writing has been on the wall this season has been a royal cluster fack of decision making. 

Time for certain board members to look themselves in the mirror put the egos to the side and realise that they are not as amazing and clever as they think they are......

Time for a mass clearout on all levels starting at board level downwards time for a proper reset.

Get a new new manager, coaches and instill a football philosophy and set the standards across all levels....

We also need leaders on the pitch and a sprinkling of experience! lessons must be learnt and the youth simply cannot do it all they need guidance and mentorship! 

Onwards !

Decent shout to be fair. He plays with his heart on his sleeve. It'd have been a hell of a lot worse without him tonight.

Give Rasmus the summer to sort things, and there's a possibility the feeling of hope you're expecting may have drained out of you by September.

Start again without some of these bloody losers is a start, and it's not all about money as this season has more than proven.

Give me some heart and spine and I'll be happy, this lot can go to hell.

Agreed.  But will we be competitive?  I'm not so sure.

Best centre half at the club and has shown a lot of desire since coming back in to improve the club position.

played pretty well again, except for the first goal - he should not be letting the striker get ahead of him there. Not sure about him being captain, but does it really matter who is captain in football?
