Clutton Caveman

I think the ego is evident on the field where he can often be seen giving instructions to others whilst producing very little himself.

Where do you think he could end up? I cannot imagine him attracting interest from any of the current Championship top 6. If he goes elsewhere in the division it would be for a bit more money and a sideways move. For me he has not, particularly this season shown enough to get a bigger move. Perhaps playing in a 2 would suit him more. I would sign a 2 year deal and try to improve enough to catch a better move.

Get our singing section out of that bloody corner

Do you really think that Tommy is better this season than last?

We need strikers, nothing should remove that focus

Spends too much energy moaning to the ref for my liking

Cancel culture at its best Somebody makes a post that you don't like. Rather than posting a counter opinion or just agreeing to disagree and ignore the post it is necessary to hound said poster out of the forum. Surely this is against the purpose of a forum. A place where you exchange views. For me rather than trying to force a poster to leave the forum, people who cannot accept a view that is different from theirs should leave.

a real 100 percenter RIP

What a great window that was

When we the last time Conway looked a threat. Where has his pace gone? Where has his aggression gone. Head is probably more with his mate in Bournemouth but he is not in the same league.

I would keep James. He impacts the team so much with his class and professionalism

With his salary I think he could afford to go private, poor little lamb

It drives me crazy when we are around their box when nobody wants to shoot or cross the ball. Its pass pass pass or try the clever flick that comes off 1 time in 100. Its so congested in there any decent shot has the chance of a defection. If the shot is blocked we have as much chance to pick up the rebound as they do. If every team continues this obsession with playing on the break I can see after kick off that both teams retreat into their block and everybody forgets the ball all together. It is so refreshing when you see a team like Liverpool try to score each time they get possession. They get the ball into the danger zone with the minimum of passes and love the high percentage long ball. It just wears defences down. I fear that with Klopps departure this one ray of hope will also go. I accept that my advancing years probably makes me cynical but with all this focus on "technical" play the game as an exciting form of entertainment is failing.

He came to the club as the next Pep. Having read his manual from front to back 5 times, he can see that at this level it just doesn't work. In the absence of a new manual he is screwed, the players know he is screwed and its just a case of how long JL and BT can convince themselves they are right with this choice. Pride before a fall and all that

Since when did our ownership give a sh*t about what we think

I start to hark back to the "what a load of rubbish" chants that were common in the 80's. Can't be far off when the full back faced with 5 miles of space passes inside to Vyner or we win the ball on the edge of their box and end up with Max after keeping possession for 32 passes. It really is time that the fan base really make their dissatisfaction with our direction clear. If we just put up with it and don't get relegated we are in for another season of boring ball.

All very interesting statistics BUT, we are losing and it is very very boring

If the clubs get another £5 million per year, the players will know and demand yet higher wages not remotely tied to performance. The clubs will panic and give in and we will be back to square 1. For me the only way to fix the wage inflation in Prem and Championship is to create a set of conditions that must be included in every players contract. These conditions would include a certain percentages tied to: to league position and appearances and a compulsory 50% reduction if the club is relegated. This would allow parachute payments to be abolished with this money evenly distributed between all championship clubs, it would prevent players being happy to sit in the reserves for years and refusing to go. I don't think this would lead to an exodus of players as the prem pays better than most leagues.

Is he LM in disguise?

Only Southgate could fail at the Euros with this squad. For god sake, take the brakes off man and grow some balls. I think he never got over that penalty miss

Why don't we play exciting front foot football to increase attendances. Just a thought

Our trendy set have moved to Rugger where they can take their beer to their seat compare tweed caps and Barbour jackets with your mate and feel that you are just a bit better than those football people.

What if they go back down that year

I think many people only renew because they enjoy the twice per month meet up up with mates, a couple of beers and a pie. I wonder if a large pub chain was able to show all home games with a yearly pass costing say £150 how many season ticket holders would take that option.

Not on his current form unless with the coaching from LM he can do a job in defence
