I cannot watch us, every game the pundits are laughing at us passing the ball straight to attackers. Awful feeling that Martin is unsackable, as it surely would have happened before now and he’ll be leading us into the 25/26 Championship season. Hope they're ready for 10k ST sales if that happens 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Saint86 Posted December 4 Share Posted December 4 (edited) Right. Silver lining time. We were never going to win this game, and now stephens is suspended for the next 3 games and in all seriousness must surely have royally pissed off Martin...?!?1 Surely?!?! Thats worth a point or 2 potentially? 😄 Edited December 4 by Saint86 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They've definitely already committed to keeping him for next season. Martin spoke previously about being ahead of schedule, the 5 year plan was to be in the Prem at the end of the 5 years regardless of what happened in the interim. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jack Posted December 4 Share Posted December 4 5 hours ago, notnowcato said: Without wishing to get all CB Fry on you… how often have you talked about a decent performance or the team showing real improvement? I’ll rephrase, decent at times. We haven’t been able to be decent or show that we’ve improved, across a whole game, all season. We look decent in patches and then shoot ourselves in the foot trying to be all brave 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sheaf Saint Posted December 4 Share Posted December 4 1 minute ago, Saint_clark said: If Cucurella doesn't go down rolling around screaming that isn't given, that's what pisses me off. No different at all from BBD getting Schar sent off on the opening day at Newcastle. Players will do that - the trick is to not give them a reason to. For Stephens to even think pulling Cucurella's hair was a good idea just demonstrates what a brainless prick he is. 9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scoobysaint Posted December 4 Share Posted December 4 We’ve actually played some good football but as always, we’ve absolutely gifted them two goals. Jack Stephens, enough is enough. RM can’t defend this one. He’s not a Premier league player, bang average in Championship at best. He’s always got that pathetic petulance in him. The big plus point is that he will get a decent suspension so we may have a chance. Woods looks good, Aribo positive, KWP superb going forward. I just hope we can keep it respectable. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

saintant Posted December 4 Share Posted December 4 For me there is a case for Cucurella to be given a red for his rection to a slight hair pull. To go down like he's been shot by the Jackall was a disgrace and does the game no favours. Time it was stamped out. It was a complete over reaction and he should have been punished for it.

Baird of the land Posted December 4 Share Posted December 4 2 minutes ago, Mr X said: How is deliberately pulling somones hair not violent conduct? I know he made the most of it as players do Just feels to me there should be more of a bar. I wonder if the ref had of seen it would he have red carded him or booked him/told him to cut it out. When there's pushing and shoving in the box, is that soon going to be deemed violent conduct? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just trying to remember the last time we saw a VAR referral for pulling hair. It was some time ago but who was it who got sent off for us at West Ham for getting his fingers caught in that ladyboy's hair?

RedArmy Posted December 4 Share Posted December 4 4 minutes ago, Turkish said: Looking at the positives We never lose we win or we learn we have learnt an awful lot in that first half It's harder to play against 10 men so we've got a great chance in the second half only one of our goals conceded came from a goalkeeping error 9 goals this season have come from mistakes, so the vast majority of the time we play it out we dont concede. The record low points is still on Breaking our own record defeat is still on Martin is failing which means he's going to be better in the future for it Things really are looking up. And we’ve got the half time possession trophy. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

madge Posted December 4 Share Posted December 4 Martin twice had a right go at lumley for going long right before the mistake.. what’s the keeper to do. As for Stephen’s.. absolute bell end…should be nowhere near the starting line up.. again that’s on this manager who’s good at being best mates with virtually everyone. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
