As an outsider its obvious your owners are sticking with him to make sure your in the new stadium as a premiership team. Be caught in two minds if I was a hammer but can see what they're doing. You'll be safe this year for sure just have to put up with the neck ache in the meantime.

Well I'm certainly not SKY generation and I'd tend to agree with Flairon.
The League Cup is a competition the English game could easily afford to lose. As it stands an ambitious club should absolutely use the early stages as an opportunity to blood new signings and younger players.
Fu(k you Allardyce. You Fu(king (unt.

Whats that got to do with sky generation fans. You seem to forget that some of us cant get to games because of our vicinity. That doesnt mean our opinions wouldnt be the same could we.
The " League cup has become a Mickey Mouse cup ever since they effed around with the. and more
Not quite sure how the managers' getting blamed for the players playing badly :?
I was happy with the starting team. All around me seemed happy to see the likes of Morrison, Sakho, Poyet, Valencia, Burke, Potts starting, mixed in with some first teamers.
Not a hoof in sight.
Yet somehow it was all so slow and predictable - Morrison especially.
Are we suggesting Allardyce told them to play that way, to not break them down? He threw on 3 of our best players and they made little difference.
What team should he have played to "prioritise" the cup?
I wasnt really knocking his team choice, was just saying that he wasnt going to pick the same team that played on Saturday.
Like you say, and to Samanthas credit also said on saturday,, we had the players on the pitch capable of doing the job. Some were expecting others to play, but that was never going to be the case after his Saturdays comments.
I am just disappointed in the result rather than the fielded team
That's a rhetorical question right? Clearly he would have played the same team as Saturday or what he deemed to be his best 11 if he wanted to prioritise the cup. I was also pleased to see Burke, Potts and Morrison but it's not his first choice selection is it?Quote:

I didn't like the result. I didn't like a long journey home with some selfish Australian c unt rambling on about frogs and Bunsen burners, but sometimes you just have to say they played s hit instead of looking for someone to blame imo.
Bonzo, Samantha all but told us he wasnt going to play the same team.
We did have the players on the pitch to do the job, and the fact it took an own goal to beat us shows it. I think we beat ourselves more than they. Like IW said we just played sh!t
