These have to be the bread and butter games where we pick up 3 points.

Never a truer word spoken mate Our dreadful transfer window and penny pinching will bite us on the arse come May. I'm convinced. Today was must not lose. Next week is a must win. Christ knows who will get the goals. penny pinching?? fuck me have you any idea how much the coates family have put into this club? i wonder how much you have put into this club?

Like an old banjo player, born and raised and lived all his life in Kentucky; toothless. It's not Arnie's fault, he blows too hot and cold to be a striker in that system. Hopefully Hughesy and Kenny have kissed and made up by next week. He's the best option at the moment.
I thought Ireland looked decent for 70 minutes (then should have been subbed). The lad Assadi looks worth another look.
In the end, Robby Huth has to score one or two of those chances. But it would be nice if we had a striker getting on the end of such things, rather than a central defender (bless him).
That's was the difference in this match; Darren Bent a proper striker.
Losing runs are never easy to get off. Cross fingers for the Baggies game.

here we go again massive over-reaction have you ever been to a footy match? you get relegated in may not october!!! no doubt if we win the next two games you will be demanding champions league deluded Im not deluded im realistico. We had missed 8 points by now. We not score goals. We conceded too much goals for now. We are in trouble. Hope Sunderland palace and another one do worst than this.

It's not looking good is it - we just don't look like scoring at all and our defensive errors are really hurting us

The play has no final ball but as well as that, they need some shooting practice. See yer Joe. Off to bed. You are OK but clocks go forward in NSW tonight. Lose an hour's kip

We had better get used to losing games because that is what happens to teams that can't score goals.

Let's blame the ref. Let's blame the board. Let's blame everyone apart from those who are responsible, i.e. the management and the players.
At least they have enough time to put it right

If you're that up and down depending on the result, you need medication. agree - a bit daft talking of relegation BUT until we can (hopefully) put it right by finding someone who can score a fucking goal in the Jan window, we could have some serious catching up to do come the new year - I can see us being in the same sort of position as our first season in Jan..... I really cannot see where the goals are gonna come from....

Maybe, but we don't look like scoring & should never be relying on a referee to do us favours. Better than last week, though the lack of a striker that can score us goals is becoming troublesome

Christ knows who will get the goals. penny pinching?? fuck me have you any idea how much the coates family have put into this club? i wonder how much you have put into this club? We've spent 5M mate. Last year it was 20M. The old "He's put more than you in" argument. Great, haven't heard that since last week. We're penny pinching in the transfer market mate. It's going to cost us.

We never get any rubs of the green, Or luck. As soon as Bent come on today you knew he would score but up until the goal we played well.

I will play a 442 with arnie and Jones/Walters and Assaidi and ethers on the wing.

Daylight fucking robbery. We've been all over them. But we haven't got anyone to score goals so this will happen again and again. We had two clear cut penalties denied, a couple of very dangerous headers and Fulham have done nothing. We really deserved at the very least a point. Cannot believe it.

Certainly disappointing. Assaidi and Ireland both looked great (minus Ireland's last bit there). I'd expect Ireland to start soon. Assaidi certainly should be considered to start as well.
Arnautovic up front seemed like a good idea, but ultimately didn't deliver. By no means would I say he was disappointing, but its certainly high time he find the back of the net.
First-half reffing was frustrating, but we certainly cant blame the loss to that. We had chances. Any one of Huth's headers should've gone in.
I hate to harp on it, but a striker continually appears to be the need. Hope to see Hughes address that come January.
All and all, my advice is to shake it off, and chin up.

He's losing us this game. Jesus fucking christ. Come on Idiot explain how hes losing us the game!!! So, we're at that level now are we, boy? Calling people names... When Whelan got subbed for Wilson, we lost everything. Everything. In my eyes, as a "diehard Stoke-fan", he should've been sent off after just a minute. Time and time again, he kept getting on the wrong side of his man. He's generally too slow. His positioning is usually quite good but he was all over the place this game. Did he actually complete a single pass? I did lose count on the times he lost the ball though. I'd say that Glenn Whelan lost us the game today, I really do. The whole team lost it's momentum and balance when he kept losing the ball, slowing us down and failed to get in the right positions defensively. There is a reason why Hughes isn't playing him.

Fuck me we lost away from home.After the last few years you think we might be used to it at least we gave it a go.the difference was a striker / goal scorer they bring on Bent and we bring on Crouch . This is a priority in January a point that the management are fully aware of no doubt. Until then we are stuck with what we have so instead of turning into a bunch of menopausal women, maybe we could try and get behind the team and management.
