Bit harsh, no? We’ve looked better in every game.

We look very sharp.

You’d be surprised.

Good luck to him. Feels like a pretty dated concept but maybe not in *checks notes* Mowacre Hill?

It’s a hard one to assess thanks to that red. Poor refereeing decision but a worse decision by Ramsey to go in that hard. Dreadful first-half. Brighter second. A draw deserved but should have been a walk in the park.

Er…

I hope so. Stuck a tenner on a win at half-time.

Credit to Abdul too. Very measured and unusually mature of him.

As we’ve discussed before, BDCR is unfairly maligned. It’s understandable, but it’s lazy. He might be shit, but he hasn’t had a fair crack of the whip enough for us to properly judge. I hope he does demonstrate his abilities with us. I’d hope everyone on here would hope for that too.

Different owner for Claudio than for Brendan, Cooper, and RVN.

Stop this bloody 'swamp draining' nonsense re: BDR. There's no evidence of him being anything other than professional. Smacks of stereotyping.

I also think our academy should prove to be worth several million in saved transfer outlay this year.

There must be some logic to it. I know we are mired in incompetence, but they’re not so stupid as to not have a rationale.

Can it be as simple as having sorted this season’s accounts so this just gives us a head start next season?

Yes. Profit!

If he doesn’t sell, of course he’ll play.

Do you think half the squad care about our position in the league or a grubby fluke of a win at recently League 1 Charlton? I’d love to be wrong, but I think most of them have a serious case of feeling sorry for themselves.

Indeed. Their peckers are up, ours are as down as they can be. They’ll dick us.

Being our best defender doesn’t mean he’s any good. Just means he might be the least shit.

Yeah, couldn’t agree more. If Rudkin or Top were on the pitch, no one would pay much attention to Faes. But, yes, his time here is up.

Yeah, as I said, aside from that there’s little evidence. As for the arm waving, at least he gives a **** if we concede. Compare that with Harry Winks Oscar-worthy “I hate it here and want to leave” dispassion.

Yeah, he’s definitely unfairly vilified. Having an agent who touts him around is why players hire them. Aside from his reaction against SW, there’s very little evidence of an attitude problem. Our fan base just needs a focal point for years of accumulated rage and he’s the lightning rod.

How the bleep bleep bleep did we win that?! I’m not usually one of the negative Nellies but good god we’re bad.

Great save. Christ we’re awful. Maybe we will go down after all.

£12m is crazy money relative to what we’ve seen from him. But maybe not relative to his potential if a club like Ipswich have scouted him and are happy to pay it. Weird transfer.
