We could have, but we'd have increased our PSR breach on PSR deadline day, instead of removing it, and we'd now be looking at a points deduction.

Uncle Grimmy needs some uppers.

The chances of us getting a top striker that gets into the team ahead of Wilson in the January window are very slim.

Our problem at the minute is goals - we could have been out of sight yesterday well before they scored with more cutting edge. Barnes came on yesterday and is immediately a mayhem maker in the final third. He's a state registered agent of chaos. Even when he's not cutting in, he's a threat and he puts defenders to decisions. I'd much sooner have that than a lad who can track back better but offers very little going forward.

Pleased to hear everyone's OK and hope you're alright PL, and can get the car sorted without any drama. Lads, I think it might be time to get granddad off the road.

I will say this though. Howe is gonna have to knock this business of Murphy starting ahead of Barnes on the head. Barnes on the wrong side of the pitch is a better bet than Murphy going forward, and it's not even close.

Aye. Fuck me. 5 points off second place and playing more than well enough to win today, lads.

IF ONLY you could claim to be that.

Played 5, 10 points, 6th in the table when Gloom took over. Played 8, 12 points, 8th in the table when he leaves. The love child of Steve Bruce and Liz Truss.

Is it not Meenzer's go? I'll do it if he doesn't want to, but that's the season over for the rest of you. It's rocket launchers once I get going.

I haven't started any threads and DON'T YOU DARE step to me like this.

Two points from nine in the Premier League. A narrow victory over L2 opposition in the cup. Genuinely one of the worst match thread starters we've ever had. This can never be allowed to happen again.

Both unpopular and wrong.

Fraser sent off for Southampton.

Miggy's been at the Just for Men. Looks like a Pierrot clown.

We're 5 points off second.

Get Miggy on, he fucking hates this Enciso kid.

Looks like he's popped a disc or something.

Stretcher the cunt off if it's that bad.

That's absolute bullshit from Wellbeck.

They've been extraordinarily lucky, Brighton. Combination of the ref and them scoring with one of their only chances of the game. Absolutely robbed.

Whatever happens, we've been much better today. We'll get back to scoring and we'll turn a load of teams over playing this well.

That's fucking ridiculous. Rutter in the first half and now this lad. Just falling to the floor and the ref is too fucking thick to spot it.

Barnes for Isak, Gordon through the middle will be the change soon I would think.

No second yellow for that then.
