oxf*rd off Madejski.

oxf*rd off Anton.

Your team is being ripped apart by a 19 year old.

You want me to pay £30 to watch this shit?

No that's why I'm at home.

oxf*rd off.

+1

A reminder that we don't have a single player capable of running at a defence, shooting and scoring like Lukaku just did.

But according to Brian, it's defenders we need

And if he comes out and says once more that the players are capable of staying up he needs to be shot

[BraisingsteakRoyal]

Steve Clarke - you've got to hand it to him, he might sound like he's got no teeth when he's talking - but he's done well this season

[akranes]

Not sure we will be anywhere near promotion next season either.

Look at how Wolves/Blackburn are doing.

We're going down twice in a row.

[Alf Hooker]

You want me to pay £30 to watch this shit?

Factor in travel costs and the amount of booze required to erase the nightmares of the 90 mins from your mind and it's more like double/tripple that.

[Ian Royal]

I don't even know what to say

Its our midfield - until we fix that we are fcuked

Too much damage done early on. No one's in form, no one knows what to do. No one's making the right choices, McDermott included.

BM is as likely as anyone to get us back up, I can't see the sense in sacking him.

But when you look at the championship currently, I'd fear playing 3/4 of the teams. Why are we talking about this in Jan

[genome]

Fulham 1-1 Wigan

[Archie's penalty]

I tell you, Gunter is SOOOO BAD,

[No Fixed Abode]

Stoke 0-4 Chelsea

[BraisingsteakRoyal]

Blow the pcunting whitle and let us move on.

[blueroyals]

BM is as likely as anyone to get us back up, I can't see the sense in sacking him.

And we'll come back up with another mediocre squad playing mediocre hoof ball.

[Royal Monk]

We are that poor we should be relegated 2 leagues this season to give us a chance

[royalp-we]

Well at least the Crawley result has kick started our year

[Royal Lady]

If they haven't sacked Brian by now, they're not going to this season. I think they'll give him til Xmas next season and if we're not storming the Championship, they'll get in someone else, with the brief to get us back up and keep us in the Prem. So good luck to them.

McD is only doing what he can do, with no experience of Prem football and a diminishing pool of the right calibre player who might do something to stop the rot.

I can only assume we've signed these players with the express statement that we're almost certainly going down but we're coming straight back up. Which is a dangerous tact to take, because nothing is assured.

What was BM thinking by playing Carrico today? First match of the season and the PL!!!

Kelly must be thinking WTG was I doing signing up for this lot!! Bet he has already left for home.

[ManchesterRoyals]

Well at least the Crawley result has kick started our year

[TBM]

West Brom have won every header at the back today, so why do we continue to throw it down their throat.....attack their right back - thats where they are vulnerable

[southbank1871]

Morrison has been superb for them today.

[No Fixed Abode]

Sunderland 3-0 West Ham
