Almost dead silence from the crowd, no sense of a 6-pointer here. They're just waiting for the axe to fall.

I reckoned we were down if we lost to Norwich earlier in the season (the 6-2) and I think the WBA game on Saturday has taken on similar significance. Win or we'll be playing Sheffield Wednesday next year.

We're better off playing without him, anyone who's so fucking stupid he would do that shouldn't be playing professional football. We've gone from one tart of a CB getting sent off deliberately to a refrigerator-sized arsehole with the turning circle of an arctic oil tanker getting a straight red with seconds to play. Fuck off the lot of you.

What in the everliving fuck was that fucking idiot doing there?

I can't believe how bad this Kone bloke is. Isn't he the cheat who handballed against us for Wigan a few seasons ago?

Not the player's either considering he'd knocked us back already several times when he was at Bastia/Lille.

You say, as if you haven't also posted loads of fake ITK bullshit from twitter losers.

Two players who shouldn't have started coming off. Lascelles has been fucking shit as well. But of course the club is working so hard at strengthening the defence and attack...

I agree, there was a clear one off Capoue in the box a minute ago, yellow card material if ever there was.

Cannot believe the brass neck on van Gaal to be complaining about the ref after that performance. His side were fucking shit and were bailed out on multiple occasions by the shithead in black.

Shocking series of fouls there at the end, Smalling on Mitrovic, then a rugby tackle on Toney.

Get the fuck in!

We'd have a hard time qualifying for the third round as things stand.

We'll not go down this year. We'll only end up wishing we had.

We'll lose to Villa now and balance will be restored. Next week they'll be back to looking like lifeless mercenary donkeys.

Crisp as owt that finish. Class.

Looks like Williamson was watching the Southampton game last night.

Not bloody likely. Aimaad did well, but I don't feel the need to come on here or anywhere and defend my religion any longer. Why should I? The murderers who blow themselves up, rape children, and force minorities to live under a reign of terror when not killing them outright clearly haven't been reading from the same book I have. (I'm not sure they can read, actually. Have you seen the clip of their flag? It looks like something a borderline retarded Omani child fingerpainted using only bird shit as his medium of expression.) The best course of action for us is to simply deny any connection to them. The members of ISIS are not Muslims. They are just killers with good PR, and they've nothing to do with me or with the religion I follow.

Reckon that was his last dance. Mind, I doubt Rodgers would've won that game.

McClaren will come good, I agree. By 10 games in some could already see that Fat Sam was a big fat mistake - don't reckon the same is true about ginger. All in good time.

I don't think Tiote should be starting this game.

Agreed completely re: Sissoko. A sickening bit of playacting. It's bad enough when the objective is to get your opponent sent off through unsportsmanlike behavior, but when your ambition is nothing more than getting yourself off the field because you lack the heart to go on, you are the lowest of the low.

What the actual fuck? What has players coming to matches in tuxedos got to do with our shit performances? Costa pushing players, winding them up, and acting the cock is a "disgrace." A couple of french blokes in tuxes isn't. Fuck off.

Did anybody just see that fucking little cunt throw the ball away from Haidara on purpose and raise his arms like "too bad bro, what you going to do about it bruv?"
