Get in.

The press looks like it's making a tentative reappearance.

Gordon's not moving right since he went down before. Twisted something.

Get in.

Well the new version of Local Hero is somehow worse than the original.

As I've just noted you haven't disproved anything. You've found 3 games where we had one a week. WHY AREN'T WE AMAZING AGAIN EDDIE, YOU'VE HAD 3 GAMES IN A ROW WITH A WEEK'S REST INBETWEEN. DADDY I WANT AN OOMPAH LOOMPAH!

That's a run of THREE GAMES where we had one a week btw. The first in the list we had a game four days before it. That's not gonna fix all that preceded it.

And do you recall us picking up any more injuries during that run? Or having players just back from injuries? Or having to rush some players back? Or the players we've continued to flog looking like zombies? Or has it just been plain sailing and inexplicable why we don't look like last year's team? Anyway, this logical thinker is off to Bamburgh with the dog. ENJOY YOUR HYSTERICAL DAY.

There is talk of him being on borrowed time. And BTW, there's only one of us thinking objectively and logically here. I'm a million miles from hysterical.

Show me the fixtures where we've had "one game a week for a while now". That just isn't accurate. And as has been discussed this week, you don't refill the tank during the season. Once it's empty, it's empty. Your expectations are WILD. More on Spurs for context. Knocked out of the Carabao in the second round. Knocked out of the FA Cup in the 4th round. Not in any European competition. Us. Made it to QF of the Carabao despite an insane draw. In the QF of the FA Cup. Came within half of an hour of making it out of the group of death in the CL. We are objectively having a better season than Spurs. And it's not even close. No one is suggesting that Postecoglou is on borrowed time. Honestly we need to give our fucking heads a shake.

I assume the judging panel has correctly assessed Sunderland players as Premier League rather than Championship level, and acted accordingly. Don't forget, only Vinicius Jr has more carries into the box than Jack Clarke.

We're limping to the end of the season though. That's the point. The CL and the injury situation has completely fucked us. Spurs have played TEN GAMES fewer than us this season, haven't had close to our injury crisis, and are only 10 points above us in the league. Swap our games and injuries for theirs and we'd be absolutely flying again.

I think the mitigation of a) the season we had last year, b) the gargantuan efforts in and around the CL campaign, and c) the ludicrous injury crisis are way, way, way more than enough to continue with the bloke. And I don't mean that he starts next season on borrowed time either. I understand frustration in the away end with what people are seeing in the moment.

Tindall too.

We haven't been doing that though.

I know I keep posting about this but it really is quite something to see your vote literally die off. I know Labour spending time in govt could change everything, but I don't really see a load of young people suddenly becoming enamoured with the Tories, so you'd think the 1.36m will repeat itself come the next election.

What are we looking for from a Plan B? Cos if we're suggesting Plan B is just "have an unprecedented injury crisis, but be better than we currently are", I don't think that's really fair.

Pretty sad reading. This is how it ends for the latest incarnation of Quiff.

Another desperate flail by a bloke that is just trying anything to move the polls. This won't work because, frankly, people are too worried about their cost of living and the state of public services to indulge the clueless arsehole. Also who calls a surprise political speech at teatime on a Friday. It's the weekend arsehole, we don't want to hear from you.

I think we could all have guessed this but we have OFFICIALLY been the worst hit team by injuries this season. By quite some distance.

Is this Quiff? He was a lot less boring when he was obsessed with testosterone and Mexican erection tablets. Unfortunately it appears Le Tissier has AWOKEN him.

I'm talking about representation but thanks for the wisdom.

Aye, a preening narcissist. The fucking dye-job on his beard BTW. Looks like he's been licking out an ashtray. Meanwhile, 28% of kids living in Rochdale are in poverty, and this prick is gonna make it all about himself between now and the election.

Ex-Labour Chris Williamson is deputy leader of Galloway's party and has been on Radio 4 saying predictably insane shit about Israel/Hamas. Just what we needed.
