We look defeated before a ball is kicked. That reflects on the manager IMO.

It's a combination of being shit and also not believing in what we're doing. Jones is like a fake Bruce, but with a better accent.

I see the thought process here. We are trying to defend their 1-0 lead.

We look every inch a relegation team. Not a hint of fight or aggression.

But he trains well.

Keep picking Clark Jones, it's really paying off big time.

They better not overturn that.

My god, the way we find ways of fucking up promising positions is extraordinary.

Ritchie heading thin air

Jamal booked for a clumsy tackle, the useless twat.

This is great. We aren't losing yet!

The cameras haven't picked him up yet.

Of course Lamptey would come back from a long injury absence against us.

It is!. My family threatened to disown me whenever I suggest sticking it on again 😩

No one can tell me that Fernandez and Schar are poor professionals when Rafa used them both very successfully, so if Jones is saying they aren't training well - or he just doesn't rate them - then he's carried on the flabby attitude that Bruce fostered. He might be a decent coach but he's certainly not manager material.

One of my favourite cult films. The acting was so awful it actually morphed into Oscar worthy brilliance somehow!

I got the message that Jones doesn't like the foreign defenders, but what's wrong with Dubs? Is he injured?

As long as he doesn't tell us to fuck off before 10pm I am going to roar on the lads as if the charge up the table is underway!

Well I can sort of look forward to this now, was kind of dreading it when I thought the Howe deal was off.

Good. I was getting to the point where I would rather he fuck off and just take a punt on Fonseca. But if he's showing his face publicly then you have to assume it's getting done.

Someone closer to Bournemouth would be my bet.

I think at this point, I will just wait until the game and see if Howe is there. It could all just be clickbait from the Mirror so pointless in effing and blinding at Howe before it's been confirmed.

Exactly. If he wants rid of current staff and replace them with his own, so what? Our staff are hardly irreplaceable, if that's the only hold up, surely we'd have done it?

I meant the Glazers might have been in touch with Howe's people.

Like what?
