Desperate as 17 year old me was if we go BACK in for Potter.

No.

Pretty sure he’s actually about 5’10”.

Figures are a few years old but the BBC currently has about 47% female workers 16% non white. Women actually outnumber men in the UK and the non white population is about 18% so this quota filling you talk of clearly isn’t working as there’s a still a disproportionate (albeit small) number of white men in roles. One can only imagine the percentages 10 or 20 years ago. If there has been a drive recently then the current numbers are an all time high suggesting real, real inequalities in the past. Your last sentence couldn’t be more true - “People should be given any job on merit not because of their gender/ethnicity etc.” In an ideal world of course, but empirically, demonstrably, white men have been given roles over women/people of colour through the BBCs entire history. I’m a white man and I don’t feel even 1% threatened by any of these “woke agendas” people speak of.

I’d have him back just to gaze on his face. I’m in the minority I know but I think he earned the right to not be sacked, even if he took us down. I know people on here get salty about people slagging us off for getting rid of him but a part of me agrees with them. Legend. X

I smile every time I see his face.

I think the title win killed it for me. It’s like when Cartman sees the people with the bums for faces, he knows nothing will ever too it. I’ve lost the ability to feel joy.

Bring back Des.

Club legend and always liked him as a presenter. Shame to see him go. Some of the comments on here though, “too outspoken and controversial” 😂. People are wild. Wish him the best of luck. X

Oh I see, you’re one of THOSE types of posters, my apologies. Assumed you’d be a bit old for that but my fault, sorry. As you were.

I mentioned nothing of Ferguson, nor Wenger, both of whom are amazing managers. Wenger in particular is one of my favourite all time managers. It’s the hyperbole of words such as “fraud” and “isn’t good” that undermine the point you are attempting to make.

“Has had the best resources which has helped in win” ≠ “is a fraud”. He is clearly, objectively, empirically, demonstrably a good manager.

You’re completely correct, I will laugh. 😂

Nice to see Man City get pumped.

Christ the world is in a depressing state. Fvck me.

Jose would be the most stupid, ridiculous, poorly thought out clusterfvck of a decision we could ever make. I’d fvcking love it.

As an impact sub he was never a bad signing and the stick he’s got is so unreasonable. Obviously if he’s starting every game we’ve probably gone wrong somewhere but he’s got us as many points as anyone this season and seems a model pro. Pleased for him today.

It’s the ghost of 22/23 for me. We slept-walked towards relegation. Bumbling along around the bottom, always getting a result now and then to keep Brendan in the job but the signs were there for so long.

The underlying stats are abhorrent. We “should” be bottom two based on changes created/conceded. Obviously yes, stats aren’t everything, but it’s very worrying. It’s highly, highly improbable that a team overachieves its xG/xGC consistently all season. I actually hate to see any manger sacked, Cooper seems a decent guy and I’d love him to come good but the signs aren’t great.

And they’re doing so well.

I actually did notice and he was definitely at fault. However he’s hardly played and can be forgiven some rustiness. He’s certainly not set the first half alight but I’d still pick him every single game.

Fvcking yes Steve. Both wingers AND Ricardo. Come on. X

Vardy last minute winner leading to his best celebration ever. He actually fully shits on the pitch.

I find it very difficult to remember names/faces/dates in general. Possibly an ADHD thing, not sure, but I’ve always struggled. I’m amazed when some people on here are like “I remember that time we lost 2-0 in 1987 and Johnny McJohnny scored for them”. I genuinely struggle to remember what the score was last week.

For some reason “lob sided” has broken me.
