I’ll be amazed if he’s handed in his resignation and is walking away from his contract and the payout he’ll receive if he’s sacked. It would be the noble way to go, but I don’t believe it for one second.

Berahino MH says he hasnt played because the system doesnt fit him atm Time to change it now? And therein lie our problems in one simple sentence. Hughes bought a player that doesn't fit the system. A system that Hughes continues to employ, utilizing more players the he purchased that also don’t fit the system. It begs two questions. Why the fuck are YOU buying players that don’t fit the system that YOU are choosing to employ, and why the fuck are YOU using a system that’s clearly not suited the the squad that YOU put together? He’s lost the fucking plot.

There's a hard core of people who dont want him back even though he's been the most successful manager for decades. It is time for some truisms that might offend a few snowflakes on here. The immediate future of the club is at stake. The ONLY option is Tony Pulis. If you don't like it -tough!! The club comes first, not your petty vendettas. Why is Pulis the ONLY option?

Not today. I can’t see anyone in their right mind defending that. Indeed mate. Can't defend the indefensible. Totally understand the calls for his immediate head; and I wouldn't be sad to see him go if he went. But the way I see it is he now has 4 games to save his job. Anything less than 6 points, he's gone. 7-10 points and we should put a little distance between us and the bottom 3 (but could easily get dragged in). Even with a maximum of 12 points there'll be plenty of people willing him out the door, so you'd have to say the writing's on the wall; it's all about whether he can cling on until the end of the season before he leaves. I can't see past todays performance. We clearly need some drastic changes in both approach and personnel. He doesn't seem capable of recognizing the need for change in approach, and his recent record in the transfer market suggests he can't be trusted with recruitment. In the past, we could survive the regular beatings from the big boys because you could count on us picking up points from the teams around us.....but this season? Not much evidence of that. Today we looked like a team that had just thrown in the towel, and that needs to be fixed immediately.

It’s been fucking dire mate, and that’s coming from somebody who’s been solidly in the pro Hughes camp. It's shocking how we pass the ball to them at critical moments and their second goal all game from losing possession in THEIR half when we're attacking. We’ve offered absolutely nothing. We just look like as a club, we’ve thrown in the towel.

I just turned the TV on. They scored. Then a minute later, again. I just changed channels. Fuck this. Awful. It’s been fucking dire mate, and that’s coming from somebody who’s been solidly in the pro Hughes camp.

This is fucking horrendous. I just don’t see how he survives this one. We look like a team without a pulse.

There’s no disputing we were shit in that first half, but somehow we’re only 1-0 down to a flukey own goal.
Ditch the three at the back bollocks at half time and we’re still in with shout. If he doesn’t make the change immediately, we deserve the hammering we’re likely going to get.

N’Zonzi. And 2x wing backs. We would be a completely different proposition. Listening to Phil Thompson on soccer Saturday saying Seville got better when they took nzonzi off at half time against Liverpool as he was slowing them up and taking them sideways and backwards. That may be the case, but he’d fucking walk into our side and instantly improve us beyond measure.

Let’s see how many of the endlessly droning, faux-ultra cunts are still watching in the Championship next season. You and won't be watching because the Championship isn't on "over here". You’re right, I won’t be watching because I have no interest in watching a league unless Stoke are in it. As bad as things are, I don’t see us getting relegated.

Our best centre half is on the bench Why split up a relatively well formed partnership from last season and balls it up with the introduction of Wimmer, seems Hughes is trying to justify the fee he paid at the expense of results. But you spent most of last season getting butt-hurt about the 4-0 drubbings. What’s the deal with that?

If I’ve lost an arguement I had not interest of winning, I couldn’t really give a fuck. The irony of you of all people talking about 21st Century political correctness is laughable, you fucking window licker. (there’s another one for you, sweetheart) Owned cow boy Owned?
