Just seen that this is an 8:15 kick off? Horrendous. Be empty by 85 minutes

The irony is that there was probably a good percentage of our fans there yesterday too.

Yep. The other side of the defence was an absolute mess.

Absolute shambles. No structure, no fight. Justin and Faes like fish out of water. Brentford play some ****ing excellent stuff, to be fair.

James Justin might just be the worst defender in the league.

5 bad defenders is better than 4 bad defenders.

So ****ing weird.

If that's the case then they've learned absolutely nothing- wouldn't surprise me.

Pretty sure they sacked him when they were in a nearly identical position to where we are now? And he's supposed to be a club legend there Edit- pretty much. And that's with fans who loved him and credit in the bank for their first promotion in about 25 years, plus survival. No idea why they're getting their knickers in a twist about us binning him.

The Congerton effect...

People who don't have to watch club every week having wrong opinion, shock horror.

Wish no ill on the bloke at all, just wasn't of the standard we're going to need to stay up. We're in quite a strong positionn here compared to the summer- points on the board, out of the relegation zone and a bit of money to spend in January by the sound of it. Certainly shouldn't be scraping the barrell again.

Wow. Genuinely wasn't expecting them to act so fast. You'd like to think we have a decent replacement lined up as well (cue 3 weeks of approachments and rejections).

I don't think Vardy is a better player than Kane to be honest... though his story and trophy cabinet mean that he's got a better legacy. Rooney was a monster in his prime and won it all, Manchester United's all-time record goalscorer, etc. He went into decline early but comparisons with him are daft.

Genuinely all he did- 5 is average, surely? 6 slightly above, 4 slightly below?

Surely gone if we've not beaten Brentford or West Ham.

Get him gone. Dreadful. Summed up on comms after 10 minutes- looked like we were playing with 10 men at the end of a match. No idea what his tactics are supposed to be, but it ain't ****ing good enough.

Not a lip reader by any means but that looked like "****ing shit" from Vardy towards Cooper there

Dig in and hope there's still only 1 goal in it around the 80th minute then. Lovely.

Go and get the dehydrated coconut rolls.

Yep. Haven't managed to shift mine in the section on the resale platform, unheard of for a league game against these surely

We're so poorly coached. Unorganised at the back, slow to close the ball down, disjointed press, isolated attackers. On top of that it's really ****ing boring to watch.

Could you see us pressing for a second goal if we went 1-0 up at Spurs like Ipswich did?

I don't know about that. Everything just seems to come from us affording them too much time on the ball- surely a coaching issue.
