They could have turned the game today on it’s head in the last 10 minutes. I can see them winning against an on the beach Palace and also United if they are out of the top 4 race

I can’t see us getting anything other than a couple of drubbings
You can really see Cardiff win at Old Trafford? Dream on.

I am not as confident as you, I fear CH and most of the squad will be with us next season :down:

And as long a second they hit their targets, why is this a bad thing?

It's very expensive to run a football club. Change can only happen at considerable cost. It's not our money to make this call.

First player we should sign is Rondon

Rafa will then leave Toon and be available …

TB will give it a lot of thought if and when he ever makes a change, his money, his choice ultimately

I am not , any one can see it’s not working , TB is not an idiot , anyone can see the players are no longer playing for CH , , not only that CH has no idea how to play progressive football , thanks CH but your time is up

Agree & I want CH moved on too, but I cannot see TB sacking him AT ALL. Its clear TB is building something here, and he definitely wants CH as part of it. Just look at what Ashworth said when he was appointed:

"My job is to try and keep the first-team manager in a job for as long as possible," Ashworth told BBC Sport.

He won't be going anywhere this summer.

how was the Brewers Hatters game? Luton could still miss out!

That “long as possible” might be 5 months?

TB will make the hard decisions.

I just don’t think Tony is the type to sack CH. I think he will stick with him. But we need some excellent signings with or without a new manager!

Luton were very lucky to be one up at half time - scored from their first real attempt on goal

Strong wind ruined the game at times - but Brewers deserved the win - two good crosses from their right back set up both goals

Hatters favourite song is "we've got Lua Lua, champagne's on ice, were getting promoted twice"

Something has to change, if we start off like we are next season we will be relegated by Christmas and probably gain the accolade of the least points ever in a season

The something that has to change is the recruitment team has to stop taking blind punts on random global players with no Premier League or Championship experience. They all look like world beaters on their Youtube 'Best Of' vids. Usually because they're playing in an inferior league. This really isn't rocket science. Or even sports science.

It’s a bad thing for me as the football is a hard watch but it’s obviously TB’s call. Doesn’t stop me wanting him gone though

I thought he was very average today, looked overweight and lifeless.
He is still a WBA player I think also

I really can’t see them getting 6 points after losing to a poor and on the beach Fulham. It would be a pretty huge shock.

Their need for a win plays perfectly into Palace’s counter attacking game, and Man United are a far, FAR better side than them. I just can’t see it - I’d honestly be surprised if they won even one or the two games. We’re bad but they are awful.

Hodgson and Palace are professionals and will be trying to finish as high as possible - there’s 2m per place up for grabs. They beat Arsenal in their last away game, so I fancy they’ll get a point at least.

As for Man Utd, the only points they have dropped at home against non-big 6 opposition was the 2-2 draw against Burnley. I’d fancy them to beat Cardiff at any stage of the season.

Chap on the 25 going to the game was saying that he had inside information and that TB isnt as wealthy as most think and is definitely nowhere near being a Billionaire, so perhaps finance to buy better is a problem. I obviously do not know if this chap was ITK or just bull.......g

Yes Rondon is still a WBA player

Toon refusing to sign him permanently is reason why Rafa won't agree a new deal - believed to be too old at 29 - set their goal up quite well and has scored ten or so PL goals

The main focus between Bloom and Hughton discussions needs to be about why we've got so little production out of Ali J, Andone, Bissouma and Locadia.

I'm totally fed up with boring inept football bereft of energy, commitment, excitement and a manager who actually shows he has belief in his players. Hughton is so ****ing downbeat after a team talk, I expect the team need counseling from the Samaritans

Chap on the 25 is factually incorrect.
