What I’m worried about today w the way Dyche has our full backs play tight to the centre backs and leaves acres of space on the wings I fear Hudson Odoi will have a field day.

Can't be at the game or even watch it as I have to work. But wearing everything with Everton on for luck.  Need the win it does not matter how we get it. Need the crowd to be on full support mode and in great voice. COYB. 

I fear our fans are worn out but we will do our best coyb.

Very interesting our 2 strikers down the bottom it looks like we could be stuck with them till their contracts expire.

Nothing should be dismissed in our quest for a change of performance, even the manager

Not sure any are ready

No I didn’t to be honest, but I’ve seen enough of McNeil to know he needs dropping. 

But at least he’s fit I know what you mean about going back all the time it’s annoying the whole team plays the same way they are scared of losing the ball. 
I can’t believe Harrison is so bad for us is it the way the manager wants to play. 
he was excellent for Leeds

Danjuma does play on the left wing, he’s shown he’s more of threat than McNeil he actually wants to take people on. 
McNeil is constantly drifting into the midfield, he doesn’t attack players anymore, he constantly plays backwards or sideways at best, and leaves Mycho trying to cover 2 men. 
We need to change the story as dopey bollocks keeps saying so let’s play player’s who want to try and make difference and actually take the game to the opposition. 

Did you watch Danjuma for the 21s he didn’t look anywhere near ready or he just didn’t do anything 

42 minutes ago, Palfy said:

I wouldn’t pick McNeil now Danjuma is fit he would definitely start for me over McNeil who has been piss poor for months. 

Surely we go with 2 wingers Danjuma on the bench for me McNeil is capable of scoring Danjuma has done nothing for nearly 2 years.

I'd swap lokonga and smith rowe for Onana if arsenal would do that.. 

that’s pure dreaming never gonna happen

I think we will lose.  I said after the Burnley game we had reached an all time low 

we are relying on Luton getting beat today.

ive said all along we are reliant on Luton waving the white flag which they just don't do. Lokonga is back which automatically improves them by 40%.

good times

I like Lokonga a decent sports director would have had him and Barkley in our midfield this season maybe next year then

That can surely be challenged. In any case, if he has any future, he's worth that 10m gamble.

Dele has no future with us he hasn’t played for 12 months anyone would be mad to invest 10m in him.

absolutely disgusting, FA cup replays have actually stopped clubs going under - the only thing that was almost pure about the game even though man united did it untold harm when they missed it.  I hate football now I really do.

I think it’s the people running the game that you might hate not football itself the premier league would willingly destroy the FA cup so their blue eyes don’t have as many games and the FA is a disgrace accepting money to change their own competition.

"Lardy dardy dah nothing to see here, probably didn't happen" .......

manager slaps a player in front of others "man up!",  "You need to work with real men, that's how it is". 

nah.... the position of a manager is one of the most difficult to maintain cos you are never off duty when the people under you are in your presence, you are being watched and judged all the time. 

you wanna demand timeliness, being called "gaffer", maximum effort, respect, the adherence to your instructions - you better make sure you are impeccable.

you do not put your hands on a player. A popular lad at that. It's not done.

in my criticism of dyche i had to actually justify why I wasn't a snowflake to people who are usually very woke.  Ive always been a man's man in what is old money - I teach my kids "someone hits you - you do the same back and I'll deal with the fallout"

Dyche should have been disciplined because as far as I'm concerned Patterson was well in his rights to stand up and give him a slap back.  Obviously 6ft2 alpha male Dyche would have no doubt given him a good hiding and tried to clear the air "at the bar with a beer to forget about it" 

the top and bottom is that he had to apologise in front of the team after being told he's out of order by Tarkowski.   The balance of power was taken away there and then. 

 

We are in a right mess now even worse than last season we need the team to turn it around big time. 
I’m not sure we can do it. 

Ian Croll of the echo pointing the finger at the Portugal incident the slap he called it he thinks Dyche has lost the dressing room.

I said at the time this was a serious incident but some on here seemed to think it was banter or it was a simple tap on the head or it didn't happen because no 1 came forward well I'll say again it was serious and regardless of results Dyche has got to go if not now definitely in the summer.

Yep. Gomes didn't deserve dropping 

What I will say is Gomes has been finished for 2 years and now he looks one of our better players. 
that shows how bad we are we have gone down the pan.

Watching the Beto chance again, it is bad guys. It’s not as hard to score as you think. He’s not even really stretching. 
 

Branthwaite was terrible for their first goal.

Garner was worse for their second goal.

Pickford somehow manages to beat them all for the third.

Fourth is Branthwaite and Tarks being equally terrible. 
 

Not sure where we go from here.

Championship ?

I honestly do not know. It really could go either way. I think Biden stumbles over the line(literally), but it wouldn't surprise me to see Trump back in either. 

Why can’t they replace Biden it looks like he’s trying to destroy America I don’t understand their politics but Trump walks it for me

Oh I wouldn't worry about us becoming more like London, we don't have anything like their money...

It’s not about money Matt

Okay with ya, scouse is a stew from Norway I believe, I must confess I’ve never had it that I know of. You’re definitely English before you’re a scouse or Liverpudlian. As I keep saying to Steve you’re English before you’re Cornish but he won’t have it

I’m English the video I watched was by a YouTuber called reacting to my roots have a look you might enjoy it it’s only 30 minutes 

Plus there’s no way I could boo our national anthem it’s disrespectful to our service men and women who lost their lives at war.

What’s happened to bring this on?

To be honest it’s annoyed me for quite a while. 
but this morning I watched a program on YouTube by an American guy scouse not English it was very good but I can’t accept the saying S N E

Sadly yesterday took the fight away from them, the team and the manager looked really dejected, they’ve had about 8 first team players out at the same time and it eventually taking it’s toll. 
I would have liked them to have stayed up but I don’t think it’s going to happen, but I have enjoyed their style of play, unlike our numbness hoof ball tactics from the tactical maestro that is Sean Dyche. 
Maybe if they get relegated we could approach  Rob Edward’s to take over from Dyche who by all accounts is getting sacked at the end of this season. 

When does Dyche’s contract end was it a 2 year contract 

Scouse not English what a load of shite this is and people outside of Liverpool think it’s everyone in Liverpool thinks like this. 
does my swede in.

Hopefully branthwaite is left alone , I'd sell Pickford before him. 

Branthwaite wont be here next season.

There's not much difference between allardyce and dyche tbh.  Can't stand either of them.  Multi millionaires by playing football in a way that is almost unwatchable yet they gaslight fans with utter bullshit. 
 

hopefully we survive, hopefully we get good owners,  hopefully we get a manager who can get more from the players and use the money from Onana etc to get the club back on its feet 

Quite a few hopefully’s but that’s all we have unfortunately next season regardless of which league we are in it’s all about incomings and we need to get it right a massive responsibility on Thelwell and our scouts. 
we know Jarrad & Onana will be leaving so I’m presuming we already have our targets.
