Completely agree, I’ve actually stopped even looking at the league table tbh. Until we sort ourselves out there is no point. Once we have, if we do, then we can start thinking about top 4 etc.

It's bottom four we'll be looking at if we don't pull our fucking fingers out.

That sort of shit doesn't happen in this day and age and nor should it. Phil Brown did something similar Hull and his players thought he was an idiot for it.

No one reacts well to public humiliation and no one likes someone who is perceived to be grandstanding to a crowd at their expense. That's how something like that would come across.

There should have been very harsh words in that dressing room at full time and I suspect there was. Wasn't there also rumours of punches being thrown? That's good enough for me. I saw players that tried and cared yesterday. They were just set up in a way that stopped them making the game competitive.
I believe Phil Brown has recently become available.

Same….. DL also not happy and will be involved in replacement.

Wasn't he involved in his hiring? wording makes it sound like he didn't get involved in the hiring and now this is what happens when he leaves it to others

Was he not?

Yeah I hear what you’re saying, and you’re right. From a selfish perspective, I’d just would like someone to put players in their place and point out how their actions are hurting the thousands that pay good money and deserve to be humiliated. Feel some quickly run down the tunnel and get back to being on their phone and checking whatever is more important to them.

Doesn't bode well for Paratici then

To be fair to Fabio, he's made some excellent signings in Romero, Royal, Gil and Mate Sarr (when he gets here). I wouldn't be too hard on Fabio for cocking up the choice of manager. Maybe we shouldn't be listening to anything Mendes tells us from now on.

if he’s not happy with Paratici he should be fucking disgusted with himself, someone needs to buy that **** a mirror and tell him to fuck off away from any football decisions.

This is what DL got Paratici in for, to blame him when shit goes wrong. The bloke is absolutely Teflon!

What he cost is irrelevant, he either is or isn’t good enough. He is ok as I said and has good qualities but skipp is a better DM than him and we need a better Cm to play along side him who is a better on the ball and can dictate the play PEH can’t do this or the DM role imo
Fair point, I just think it's a bit harsh to judge when we've served up such turgid shite of late. None of our players have looked any good, for quite a while, which has been down to the managers and their set up/directions.

I can't believe that will go back in for Fonseca. He was genuinely pissed off with us just a couple of months ago. Also, how much egg on face can Paratici stand? As someone said the question constantly asked by journos would be "so, what changed? why was he the wrong man in August but he's the right man now? Do you actually have a clue what you're doing?"


When do you/we ever see Paratici/Levy/Board members fending off questions from the press?

Outside of (largely unsubstantiated) murmurings and whispers, They're pretty much unanswered.
