Looking increasingly likely that there’s never going to be a giant Fabian Hurzeler flag unfurled before a game.

You must be a Geiger counter, the amount of fallout you have discovered in the last year.

I am marvelling at the new trope that we are the worst run club in the EPL with embarrassing recruitment.

This is the sort of social phenomenon that explains how an electorate can vote in melts like Johnson and Trump.

I'm minded to Go Large on a Farage landslide in 4 years.

Anyway, where was I?
Oh yes....

Sack the board, sack the board, sack the board

Bloom is bloomin' useless!
Barber is a twat
The manager is clueless
Do I not like that!
I never said we were the worst run club in Europe? Merely that the last few transfer windows have been below par. Put a cork in it. 👍

I do feel sorry for Fab for the unbalanced squad he has. If we had 2-3 less forward players and 2-3 more defenders it would be a lot more manageable.

However he sent that team out to get slaughtered yesterday with that lineup.

Simple solution. Ipswich are going to go down, McKenna won’t want another season in the championship, he showed his loyalty by staying last summer but time for us all to accept we made a mistake and he comes in the summer.
I’m not sure we would pay his wages

Seems to be a bit of a split between the “sensible long term” fans who watch on telly and those who got up at around 6am yesterday and parted with over £100 quid for that garbage.

No one is saying Bloom out but they are pointing out some mistakes. It wouldn’t be an issue if the club didn’t seek to present itself as perfect in every way.

I suspect he’s never really gained the respect or trust of the squad. Tough call for Tony but I’d guess he bites the bullet after the window closes or as soon as the season is done and dusted.

You know you only do it because you love it.

And people are saying 'Bloom out' by pointing the finger at the board.

And the club does not seek to present itself as perfect in every way.
Some fans like to think of the club as perfect in every way, but that's their problem.

Anyway, I'm a historical legacy fan, don't y'know.
I will be getting up, half an hour before I have gone to bed, in order to drive the hundreds of miles from Faversham to Falmer for the next home league match.
As I have been doing since the late nineteenth century, when we were call, Brighton Academicals, and my transport was pony and trap.
(Still is, if I'm honest).

I guess if the anti-Fab stuff is coming from the partner of one of the players who is out of favour with FH, then it might not be so worrying - I can imagine it’s a nightmare trying to keep a large-ish squad happy. And I can also imagine that the huge number of injuries is undermining cohesion etc.

The next few weeks will be interesting!
that’s a good point. if we’re looking at issues with favourites and players being unhappy they’re out of favour, then frankly I blame the board for giving him such a comically unbalanced squad. I’d wager none of those players who are unhappy they’re out of favour and can’t get a look in are defenders.

David Moyes would look like an improvement at the moment.
This is how blinkered some football fans are in a nutshell. David Moyes would be a massive improvement. He's got almost unrivalled Premier League experience, had Everton punching above their weight for a decade and in Europe several times, took West Ham into Europe and didn't really do any worse at Manchester United than anyone else since Ferguson. In fact, sometimes boring football aside, he'd be the perfect type of manager to get the very best out of a group of youngsters by improving their game and providing a clear playing structure tailored to their strengths. I'm not advocating Moyes as the future by any means - but it's ludicrous when people hold him up as an example of a poor manager.

They absolutely seek to control the narrative at all times and rejected the findings of an independent ombudsman because they feel they know better.

I love a day out. I’m not sure I love a stand full of Forest fans laughing at us or a team that looks broken and disjointed.

I was being serious btw. We can't/won't get Mourinho, Ancelotti, etc. There aren't many proven top flight managers that grind results season after season.

I have never been a fan who actively wants a player or manager out other than Sammy Hypia who looked completely out of his depth but yesterdays 7-0 thrashing was just beyond, one in midfielder who’s only just returned from injury and only had a couple of cameos from the bench expected to marshal the entire midfield, a left back expected to defend against two of the best attacking players in the league you could see right from the off that we were overwhelmed but the manager could not see this changes were needed after the second goal went in and that’s the managers responsibility therefore he’s lost my vote of confidence

Has he been sacked yet?

The longer this result sits with me the more incensed I get.
