I've decided I'd quite like this season to just be over now please. I'm yet to be convinced I want next season to start either.

I'm sure you said that last year

And the year before

Maybe last year because I had no faith in Clarke whatsoever, but never before that.

It wasn't a dig at you. Just the last few seasons of

[harry]

At least Tim can't mispronounce Knockaert anymore.

First summer signing?

[Ian Royal]

Oh, ok Harry. No worries then.

[Sutekh]

God this is depressing rubbish. Any chance maybe one day having a team that actually is some use going forward?

Sidwell on to rescue a point ..... ?

Agent Sidwell on to snatch a draw from the jaws of defeat

Oh well, never mind, no-one died.

[Longhorn1970]

Fcuk me this is depressing.

Welcome to Brian's world

[tidus_mi2]

Yawn yawn yawn, we never looked like scoring, Brighton weren't much better.

Brian has his work cut out for him in the Summer.

[howser]

Uhmmm ah well no doubt we will get the "we can take positives from that" my positives are
1. I am geting more positive that we won't win another game this season
2. I am positively thinking that we might not score gain this season
3. Even more positive that we are going absolutely nowhere while we have McDermott as manager
4. Posititve that as long as SJM and Hammond are involved nothing else will change.

Interesting to hear the Thais views on the footballing side of the club, they presumably must be wondering what has happened with the "best candidate" for the managers job when it was available.

[Ian Royal]

There's no shame in losing to the Barcelona.

We move on, and hopefully with a real midfield in the next outing. And oxf*rd it, Vydra's obviously not going to recover a scoring touch, so Kermorgant and Rakkels or Cox if we're going to play with two strikers please.

Al-Habsi
Gunter, McShane, Cooper, Obita
HRK, Williams, Norwood, Quinn
Kermorgant, Cox

for example.

[blueroyals]

Howe hired both Clarke and McDermott. I doubt he'll be hiring another manager.

If the performance + results are shit throughout different managers and staff then you have to look at Howe and Hammond...

Brian should be looking for a new job in the summer.

His inability (and that of his coaches who he chose to retain) to get anything out of what is a pretty good squad with some very talented players (some of whom were his choices last time around) is criminal.

And now he has ruined another great midfielder by playing him in the wrong position, in the wrong formation and with the wrong tactics.

Trouble is the Thai's don't want to part with any money to get the 'best candidate' or a decent striker, they seem to be relying on a huge slice of luck and past glories !

Ok, it didn't sound like we were going to score.

[CountryRoyal]

I'd be more than happy to not see Vydra in the squad ever again. Yes he gives his all and that's commendable, but there's no point mollycoddling someone who's shit, especially if they're not even our player.

[Sutekh]

Please someone explain what Rakkels is actually here for other than to fall over a lot and send his earnings back home to his family in eastern europe?

Also someone explain what is the point in Vydra, isn't he here to score goals?

Kermogant is Rasiak in disguise.

Why on earth did we extend Samuel's loan at Gillingham rather than getting him time in the Championship and seeing what he can do. Certainly wouldn't be worse than the rubbish we had to put up with this season.

McDermott's reappointment was just daft and smacks of SJM and Nigel taking the cheap way out again.

Now he's here though I still hope he can work something out in the summer to make something out of this shambles of a squad.

he brought in two coaches but ultimately he is responsible for the shambles
