Waking up on a warm sunny Sunday morning in time to watch MOTD and see the mighty Spurs in 15th with 37 points after 31 games.

Cunt

League went to shit many many months ago ; today mattered not a jot.

Focus on Thursday : 100 % .

Lose that ; then relax and think of things to come .

I’m guessing Ange would love to be flicking V-signs at us all from the top of an open-top bus and telling us all what he thinks of us whilst holding the UEFA / Europa League Trophy aloft . He’s motivated : so should we be .
 
I can’t wait for the day I read the news that we’ve sent this donut on his way
 
I feel you mate. This is the first time I think I'm done with this. I can stomach shit football but a proper football club or modern football bollocks but winning football (maybe, not sure) but not a corporate money making scheme posing as a football club AND losing.

Today doesn’t matter : the league position only means a few million here or there ; thus a lot to the board.
But given the fact that the League is a lost cause . 17th or 12th ; I , personally, couldn’t give a monkeys at this stage . I’m impressed by people who can .

Glad we got it over with and can concentrate on things that actually matter ; Thursday at Frankfurt’s place .

Losing every week and then expecting to go in to key European games and just win is outrageously silly. Very rarely will a side in such terrible forum just conjure it up for Europe. If you want momentum, confidence, all that jazz .. then of course this game mattered. If it didn't matter at all we wouldn't have played a mostly first choice team.

Those players now have another knock to confidence, another defeat. And if you think us finishing 16th or 17th won't impact how we are viewed in the summer window etc, then you have another thing coming. A lot of players will think twice about joining a team who were on the verge of a disaster.

Not the way we do transfers. Young players and players like the solankes of this world won't reject us.

You’re 100 % correct.

But to use that horrible phrase
« We are where we are « .

Hopefully lessons were learned today that might mean we’re more likely to get a result in Frankfurt.

We can cope with losing at Wolves ; given where we are right now .

Imagine this place on Thursday night if we don’t go through ; unthinkable .

( And not only that ; it’ll be impossible to log on ( note to admin ) .

It’s all about Thursday : forget today .
 
Puzzled that people think the league position doesn’t matter. That is the primary judge of a manager.

There are certain years where this team, poor as it is, would have been relegation threatened.

We are 3 wins, 2 losses, and a draw against the three teams to be relegated this year is it? Hardly an argument to say we would never be in trouble any year

There is a cornucopia of reasons to sack Ange but there is not one single solitary argument for keeping him. Not a one
