    Without Wilson, max, almiron, Manquillo and schar? Makes you wonder why we've struggled with them.

    No it's not he's here all season... A new manager won't want the job especially on such a low salary and without all the best players for the rest of the season..

    I don't understand why you think changing the manager now will help.. We've taken 7 points from 15 which is fine and we've been playing fine since jones came in.

    There's no longer anything to fix other than player injuries.

    The games over the dice has been cast.

    Trying to keep up with you is like chasing the man in black.

    There's nothing that can be done now is what I'm saying.

    The time to swap Bruce was when Jones came in.

    The current situation is dire. The injuries are bad. I honestly think Wilson might be back soon.

    Our only real hope now is we pick up some draws and that Fulham start losing again.

    A. Because we haven’t played with all of them in the same team all season, I think.

    B. Because we have been playing higher placed teams in the main than those teams collectively.

    C. Bruce.

    D. Ashley.

    Simples.

    Just reverse the order. With a better owner, there’s a better manager, better facilities and we play our better players more regularly.

    E. Not having all your best players makes any side even worse.

    Here's the problem I was talking about in terms of buyers looking for clubs in the championship.

    We go down and he stays its really quite simple.... Nobody will pay what Ashley wants and whether fans are taking comfort in this notion that 'he wants out' or not I don't know, but they need to forget it because it's not going to happen.

    Confirmation that the Saudis are not interested in buying us as a Championship club under any circumstances. It all hinges on staying up.

    Steve will be happy. He gets to keep his 'dream' job while the rest of us suffer because of it.

    Nothing that I wasn't aware of.

    Staying up was key and I don't think we will

    It's so obviously dead and has been for over 6 months. Funny that this has "come out" about 3 days after Staveley lost her case.

    The most depressing thing, by a mile, is the fact Ashley still isn't going to reduce his asking price whether that's in the PL or being relegated. What does this mean? Well, it means relegation just got a lot more likely because the dopey ****wits in charge have left it too late on Bruce. Worse still, Bruce will still be here in the Championship season - but who else are we going to entice, being relegated with Ashley and Charnley "in charge"?

    The beginning of the end. Be an amusing watch, that's for sure.

    So I was right when I said the Everton Fulham game was the most important game in our history then. If they had lost that. We would be ok.
