[ASHLEY OUT]

Good grief. . . Ghost disagrees.

I'm shocked, absolutely shocked.

Now now, disagree by all means but let's not have a teet for tat.
I don't want to create an issue by calling you what you call me.

We gave them a match and we could have snuck a draw. We tried to attack; unfortunately most of our players are shyte.

Attack for 90 mins? With Ki in midfield?

I'm not talking about attacking for 90 minutes.
I'm talking about having a go for 90 plus minutes instead of just spending most of the game just sitting back and being cannon fodder.
Only Dubravka and last gasp interventions kept the score down.

It's embarrassing.

Empty words from you again. Having a go? Part of having a go is to be well-structured and organised in defence, and to attack when the chance is there. If we hadn't spent a large chunk of the game working on keeping them from scoring, we would have been beaten 9-2. But I suppose you'd prefer that cause that would mean 'having a go'?

Not in my book it's not.
What we did was backs to the wall garbage but feel free to defend it just as I will to slaughter it.

[HughieG]

feel free to defend it

Gee, thanks. Again. Forever.

HOW THE F*** IS IT SHAMEFULL TO PLAY THAT WAY AGAINST ONE OF THE MOST EXPENSIVE TEAMS IN THE WORLD.

Have a little bit of common sense and rationality man. Just sit back and think what we were up against with our meagre squad compared to theirs.

Tell me why other teams get something from games by having a go.
Football players are paid millions of pounds per year on top of their cost to buy.

No paying fan should be treated to that garbage no matter what excuses are made for supposed lack of quality.
The squad is capable of having a go but Rafa chooses to allow the elites to use us as cannon fodder.

There's no excuse for it at all.

If we were in league one in a cup against Man City I'd understand the tactics of yesterday.
It's a disgrace.

I feel sorry for the players having to play that sickening garbage football.
