How the f*** did Foden not get on the pitch?
The US played well. Really well. But that doesn’t excuse that pitiful display. If the World Cup was won based on how many times you can pass the ball between your centre backs then we’d have it in the bag already. That was one of the most tedious England performances I can remember, and coming after this past 12 months that’s saying something in itself.

No urgency, no desire, no skill. f****** useless.

Turns out there is a silver lining to having COVID. At least I wasn’t there in person to witness that sh*t-show.
FFS. ?

Agree with this, disagree with this, matters little now. Liam has gone, Warne is coming in. It is what it is. Only thing we can control is whether we back our new man or not, and I will be.
We’ve had Managers come in before who I’ve expected to do nothing and performed minor miracles. We’ve had other Managers come in who you would have thought were great appointments and ended up with their P45s sooner rather than later. There’s no telling how Warne will do, this will be a totally new situation for him.
We’ve also had players come into the club who’ve been reviled beforehand and we’ve supported them none the less. Once they’re through those doors and they’re our man, I couldn’t care less about any previous.

Well I suppose this was always a possibility given his “interim” title, but it’s an odd one. Typical of the man that he’s not spat his dummy out or chucked his toys out of the pram though, class act.
Warne? Seems equally as bizarre given the previous with him.
I suppose the stability was nice while it lasted.

"I completely hate them". It doesn't get much saltier than that. Feels a bit bizarre too given didn't they only climb to third-bottom in the last game of that season having been bottom or second-bottom throughout? In other words, one point fewer and we'd have been irrelevant to them; Rotherham could have hated us instead. Narrow margins!
Still whining about when the accounts were submitted. They were submitted under the timeline the EFL agreed. Don’t like it, hate them, like we do.

Just waiting for we should be beating teams like Plymouth comments to start popping up now
Well that’s why I qualified the statement. Losing to Plymouth, or anyone else, is one thing, but 2-0 up at home, with the squad we have, shouldn’t really be happening. Or at least shouldn’t be happening so timidly.

Plymouth deserving the win makes it even worse. I’d rather they were the spawniest f***ers in the league and fluked it.
-
We shouldn’t be anywhere near losing games like this, not at home, and from 2-0 up.

Blow now ref, don’t know where the 5 mins came from…

3 goals in 5 games. In League 1. Says it all. W*nk.

Cheer up. Not healthy brooding over what happened in a previous life.
Lol, I know. I’m knackered mate, so the combination of that and another disappointing result away from home is getting the better of me. Ordinarily I don’t really comment in the direct aftermath of a poor result. This is why! ?

Re: Walker
Fair point, although he seemed to fare better at Mansfield (albeit L2) and Lincoln (L1). No idea what the circumstances were at Portsmouth but he’s certainly “capable” of scoring well at this level.

Well, I always questioned his ability me.
More about mentality. If he doesn’t think he’s ready or able to play for us then fair play that he’s going to Oxford.

I may have posted this before, but I think area of the west midlands needs a new name, or the West Midlands does. Counties like Staffordshire, Shropshire and Worcester are ignored. Imagine looking for a place to visit and selecting West Midlands!
There are some lovely towns and countryside in those counties, but bet no one ever goes there.
This is doing nothing for my decades-long ongoing argument with the wife about whether we’re northern or not. My argument is that we’re not because the clue’s in the name, “midlands”, middle. Us being seemingly banished from the West Midlands now leaves me questioning just where the actual f*** we are after all! ?
Its a tough call either way, yam yams to the south of us, Mancs and Scousers to the north of us, and the f***ing Welsh to the west…?
This must be what it feels like to be Israeli!

But i'd rather eat my own knees than watch any west midlands team,my ears can't cope with the horrendous accents from either end of the region.
The only club I would have remotely have considered if Derby had keeled over was Burton Albion.
But more likely I'd have just further travelled to watch Ilkeston Town,my birth town club.
I hate all West Midlands accents with a passion. Whether it’s the yam yams or the chip eaters, it just sounds “thick”.
As a native I realised this and became very self-conscious about it at an early age so managed to direct myself to a RP accent instead. The missus takes the p1ss on the rare occasion where it drops and my natural accent surfaces. It doesn’t happen very often, usually when emotion takes over, but whenever it does, I can hear it and instantly cringe.
Re Burton, we tried, we’d go to home games when Derby were away, but we stopped in the end because try as we might, we just didn’t really give a sh1t. If Derby died then football would be over.

We definitely improved when Henderson came on. He actually showed some urgency. The way the rest of them were strolling around you’d have thought we were 3-0 up.
