I'll be honest I'm not that bothered about relegation. If it happens it happens but at the start of the season if you'd offered me the chance if being the relegated and being shot of Ashley I would have snap accepted even without the added bonus of being the richest club in the world On reflection I think Eddie Howe was the best choice that was actually available, I couldn't have stomached Slippy G even if he turns out to be decent With regard to Howe if he works out great, if he doesn't we will be further into the building stage and they can punt him and get somebody else. The clubs on the rollercoaster now and I'm just going to enjoy the ride4 points

I don't think people would be up in arms if Ashley had appointed him. We have had 2 games under him. 1 game we drew, without him able to attend in person, due to a few poor individual errors. The next game we lost, as was expected. What has not been factored in is the impact of Howe also not being at the training ground each day. Before he tested positive a lot was made of the impact he was having in each training session. I cannot believe that anyone who has seen a game before Brentford and then watch the last two games could still think we are in the same level of trouble. Yes, we are in trouble but we are in a far better place. If Bruce could fluke some wins with the way we were playing then we are definitely able to manage some now.4 points

One thing relegation will hit us with long term is a dent in our FFP capabilities as we'll obviously take a big hit with a year of shit TV revenue. We could really do without it. I had my doubts about Howe and our personnel as can he tailor his football style to the current squad? Don't get me wrong, he's a far, far better prospect than the meat loaf who was previously in the dugout with his Steve meatballs but I can't say it didn't slightly worry me. Again, not the only to say it but we need some fucking bright buttons in charge of recruitment with good contacts and who look at the 'couldn't get it over the line' craic like superman looks at kryptonite. That's how we're staying up alongside competent coaching. Any hold ups are potentially fatal for this season and will put us back at least two years if not more.3 points

Well he would have crashed the server with statistically spurious claims to show how, in fact, he was a brilliant lad and not at all a tedious arsehole. So, really, you should be thanking me for keeping my powder dry. yakunt2 points

£10 million fee. £7m goes to club £1m goes to Willie Mckay £0.5m goes to player £1.5m goes in a brown bag to Souness. That about right?2 points

The DoF is massive. I’d be feeling a lot more confident if they announce whoever it is sooner rather than later so they have time to get the transfers lined up in early January. We can’t afford to be leaving it till the end of the window to add reinforcements. There are winnable games in January.2 points

What a precious little cunt. We say there are flaws in ASM's game and this prick tells us all we're dead wrong and he's NOT absolute shite. Like that was anything like what we were saying. He can fucking do one. There've been plenty of people come on here and been welcomed. Blastronaut sticks in my mind. Just turned up one day, was funny and not a bellend and is now part of the furniture. If this shitbag thinks there won't be a bad reaction to someone that by turning up, telling everyone they're wrong and shitting his bad attitude all over the gaff? Well, then he's a muggy cunt.2 points

I'm not sure we can blame Howe for our defensive displays just yet. He's inherited a team of (at best) championship defenders. It's testament to Rafa that he somehow made them look competent over successive seasons. Lejeune and Fede were probably our best 2 and we sold one and have sent the other to Coventry for some reason2 points

From a pure defensive improvement pov we need Fernandez, Dummet and sadly Manquillo as best of a bad bunch.2 points

Look, I said the site I read it on was a disaster. The article was confused as fuck - is he a Barcelona player? If so, then that's who we've made the offer to, but we asked City to pass it on.2 points

This mantra of “we didn’t deserve anything” out of the game is patently bollocks, three clear penalty claims utterly ignored by ALL the officials and a Shelvey effort that plenty of times could have counted. From what I remember teams don’t have to dominate or necessarily be the best overall to grab a point or even three. We were denied clear, decent chances by blinkered officials and a very decent goalkeeper.2 points

You must have missed the right banger he posted on the last page My response was aimed at Piers, not Gemmil1 point

Lad in our team at work who's South African is reluctant rather than anti - he's had one dose and was talking of having his second last week. I had a mild go at him which he was fine with but his Xmas plans are now down the shitter as he was going to go home but would now need full quarantine on return. Worst thing was he was worried about telling his brother he was vaccinated as he's full anti - I told him he needed to think selfishly from that angle while being selfless in the bigger picture.1 point

Confusing table, the last 5 games reads the wrong way round for me. Next 2 games are must win. Genuinely believe if we get 6 points we will get out of it. Anything less and we won't.1 point

Nah, you can make that judgement after two games under Howe. Including one he couldn’t even attend and we got a draw even though the keeper had a fucking mare and cost us the win. And another where we lost away to a team who’d won 4 on the bounce and have a much better squad.1 point

He’s prepared to argue having a deeply unpopular manager was a good thing rather than admit his mate/source was a fucking joke. That’s how much journalistic integrity he has.1 point

We are where we are in large part because his mate was our manager for nearly 2 and a half years, in general it is of course down to Ashley but Bruce deserves a lot of criticism for where we are and as I’ve said in the past if Edwards can’t see why he should pack in being a football journalist as it’s bleedingly obvious. We’ve already seen performances from certain players better than anything they did while Bruce was manager and it’s been two fucking weeks. His point is also, as per usual with him, completely wrong anyway. He’s trying to frame it as if it’s almost exclusively the players being the issue, while accusing others of pinning it all on Bruce yet two minutes scanning comments on anything regarding our team and you’ll see huge gripes people had with player performance and ability before Bruce, during Bruce’s tenure, and still to this day. In short the blokes a fucking prick, he puts everything in black and white terms while accusing others of doing the same despite the fact basically nobody does. We all know the squad is weak but the point being they’ve visibly regressed during his tenure, the ability levels of this group of players absolutely isn’t bottom of the PL with no wins, we’ve seen far more from them in past seasons and his ridiculous “no longer capable” or however he phrased it holds no water imo you’re talking about a 2 season time scale here not 5-6. The players have received hardly any training or tactics in Bruce’s tenure, and the fact that Edwards literally blows that off in the below tweet shows the level of bollocks he posts to defend his unqualified bestie: the arrogance of this tool aye you’re right Luke, change the entire mood, actually train the players, etc and absolutely nothing will improve ffs man how can he even tweet this? Does he genuinely think if Howe was given this team back in June we would be in this same position? If the answer is no (hint it definitely is) then his entire shit point is made redundant. He’s clearly dressing this Arsenal result up as a massive failure but despite losing 2-0 in what was imo a poor performance we still managed 5 shots on target to their 6, that gives us a fighting chance of walking away with points, in contrast we went games under Bruce without registering any shots on target which is simply unacceptable. As far as I’m concerned the bloke has absolutely no credibility as a journalist. I still see his ridiculous tweets but I’ll never read any of his articles, he’s shit at his job so why bother? Tweets like the above are simply embarrassing as well, attacking and insulting the fan base he’s supposed to be covering games for yet he then whinges when people insult him? I’m not sure what he expects. Then again he cried when similar was happening to Bruce, the pair of fucking fannies.1 point
