The Fish

THey should give it to an existing coach or assistant manager, let him handle the team for a season, then bring the new man in when expectations and fears have normalised a bit. Like a managerial sorbet.

Didn't we see off Hughes from Stoke and Paul Clement from Swansea as well?

I was torn between you and a "Buzzkill of J69s", a "Gloom of Troopers", an "Avicide of Rentons"...

Thanks

He should have gone a couple of seasons ago. In fact if he'd gone a couple of weeks ago they wouldn't have missed out on Joey Barton.

Indeed, or an "obsession of Essembees", a "Contrary of CTs", or a "Nazi of Rayvins"

There'll be a kettle of vultures in that stack. I can't think of a Premier League club that wouldn't fancy one or two of Southampton's players. fun fact; a kettle of vultures is the term for when a group of vultures is in flight, a committee is when they're on the ground and a wake of vultures is for when they're feeding.

Nobody panics when things go “according to plan”. Even if the plan is horrifying!

Had a glance at a Wolves Message board, seems they were all hoping to come up and make a weekend of it (in Newcastle), but the limited number of tickets released means they can't.

Maddison of the two for me, Grealish is a right powder puff stroppy bellend.

Dunno if Marcos Alonso has been the best Left Back either.

You'd have thought they'd have been glad of the bums on seats. Surely, rather that not selling the tickets, it's dead easy to make sure only Wolves fans with a certain number of loyalty points get them? If I owned a pub in Newcastle I'd get on the Wolves message boards and on twitter offering their game shown live, a free pint for every season ticket etc.

He'll either leave a hero, or stay long enough to see himself become the villain.

Utter bollocks. Say you're a Wolves fan, it's the final game of the season where you're no doubt going to be Champions, away tickets are going to be more rare than rocking horse shit. You manage to get one and then you can either; 1) travel up with thousands of your fellow fans, go to the game to celebrate your team's superb season, maybe make a weekend of it and enjoy Newcastle's nightlife the night before or, 2) sell it and listen to the game at home.

Even Koeman's shocking start would have kept them out of the relegation zone. They panicked and in their desperation they turned to a man they didn't fully understand.

I'm still waiting for my ten likes off Parky.

Have you seen the survey? It's maybe 5 or 6 questions, ranking the players, the manager and even the fans, out of 10. Entirely worthless exercise.

Exactly

It's easier to hear someone talk to you in a club if you plug your ear with a finger

It was, unless I'm being wooshed too?

You two need to aim for brevity. Don't drone on and on. Try to be pithy. Get to the point quickly. Be succinct.

Aye, European competition is brilliant. Mad Scandinavians marching up past the pub, shouting something or other. Wide-eyed Eastern Europeans who could be your best mate or the bloke who pushes you into the shallow grave, depending on how the wind blows. If ever we get back into Europe we need to find a way to make sure the ground is full. Make those games worth loads of loyalty points, or something.

Don't think we've many saleable assets that Benitez will be happy to let go. It's only really Lascelles, imo. We might get interest in Diame, maybe Merino. But the former won't get us any money and Rafa's not done with the latter.
