Please define 'useless pricks' Mr. Fish, I'm curious about your thoughts about that.

When I saw Rafa's starting line I did not have a good feeling. Yedlin, Manquillo, & Joselu were not inspiring starters, there was more strength on the bench. Where was Mbemba? He wasn't on the bench, and neither was Gamez. Where did Benitez go wrong? Perhaps when he didn't play Shelvey or Lascells. Rafa knew Perez would possibly score. But not for the other side. My depression, frustration, and hopelessness deepens. Wednesday will probably find us deeper in the shit.

I've often wondered this but never asked, but now I will. On looking at the old photos, the whole team are wearing the same shirt. When did the keeper start wearing a different shirt from the rest of the team?

I hope Wilson will not savage us.

Lawro predicts a 2 - 1 win for us. Don't know if that's bad thing.

And now we're down the slippery slope to 15th place due to teams around us today.

Oh but it is relevant kind sir, what teams did around us today dropped us 2 places down the slippery slope to 14th.

My point entirely. It's hard to understand why he plays Manquillo when he has the seasoned full-back in Gamez who can play either side.

When Gayle scored after 12 minutes you may have thought that Benitez had got his starting 11 right. But no, he got it all fucking wrong! Diame ahead of Hayden ........... bullshit. Manquillo .........bullshit. Not starting Merino-Hayden-Shelvey together ......... bullshit. Use of substitutes .......... bullshit. Perez off, Hayden on .....bullshit .......Diame should have been the one pulled. No attempt to put another striker on ............ bullshit. Putting Yedlin on in the closing minutes ........ bullshit. My faith in Rafa is waning ............. and that's not bullshit.

Who's making that argument Alex? I merely said Shelvey and Mitrovic had an impact on the game when they came on, and they did, and it was obvious, the game changed.

My line-up would have taken 3 points. 9 of my named starters played some part in the game but unfortunately not all from the beginning. When Shelvey came on he had an impact on the game, as did Mitrovic, to a higher degree than Joselu did. I still think Gamez would have been a better choice than Yedlin as Yedlin was poor again.

At least we didn't make it 5 in a row, one is better than nowt. Joselu Joselu, who the fuck are you. If Rafa starts you against Chelsea, I'll arrange for him to see a shrink. Yedlin was piss-poor against Watford and he wasn't much better today.

Murphy is looking bright but losing the ball too much from sloppy work. Is Joselu on the pitch? haven't seen him. We are giving away too much possession because of sloppy work. My recommended team would be in the lead, not them. Yedlin and Joselu should not be on the prtch.

Deja fucking vu.

Listen to me Benitez, it's time to wake-up and change. And if it don't work change it quick like. Elliott Gamez Lejune Clark Mbemba Merino Hayden Shelvey Ritchie Mitrovic Murphy

Is the frequency a matter of availability or a money issue? If you are doing it again is it a freebie or you've come into a few bob?

14th we are!. We are on the slippiest of slippery slopes.

No I'm not, and even if he did I doubt he would answer.

Of course you can but the alcohol may downgrade the Viagra uplift.

Questions for Rafa from this moaning old gadgee who knows a thing or two because he's seen a thing or two. (1) Why do play Manquillo rather than Gamez? (2) Why are you not using Mbemba? (3) Why are you not giving Mitrovic a start? (4) When will you see Joselu is not fit for the job? (5)WHY do you wait so long to make substitutions? (6)Why did you favour Perez for so long? (7) Why don't you use Haidara at left-back if he's fit? (8) Why can't you make a silk purse out of a sow's ear?

You can remember that far back.

No excuses eh! We are getting worse in how we perform with what we've got. We are lacking cohesion, we are lacking consistency, we are lacking period. With what we've got there should be signs of improved performance to some degree but we are looking worse not better. Am I bitter ......YES I FUCKING AM.

If Benitez is so good .......... Why are we so fucking poor. We are getting worse week by week. Relegation zone here we come.

Mr. Fish, I'd like to purchase some of what you've been drinking. Where is it sold, or do you brew it yourself?

The biggest problem we have so far is that we have lost games we should have won or drawn. Losing points like that can come back to haunt you at a later date.
