    Ritchie's crossing/ set pieces were ****ing awful. He should have been off for Murphy. Dwight Gayle - Cost us the win.

    Well that was two **** teams for sure, so many teams could be joining us in the drop, and you look a definite candidate, you were lucky to get the draw, we had a definite penalty turned down, anyway all the best, it's good to know we are not the only **** team in the PL........................<laugh>

    Fact is that the Premier League is a ****e league. You have the top 4 and then everyone else who are mainly ****. We are shocking, but luckily at the end of the season,there will be at least three worse sides than us. We played one of them today.

    The only complication is every other team will strengthen. Will we?

    If we don't then that makes it more difficult. Mike Ashley really is a vindictive ****.

    Darlow is an absolute disgrace. He always does that ****e, parrying the ball back into the area

    Did anyone notice Joselu pulling out of a header on the edge of their box towards the end of the game? He did that the other week too. Completely unacceptable.

    Aye, i saw that. Hate to bring it up, but would Mitrovic have done that? Joselu doesn't like a physical challenge. Not what you need for a relegation battle.

    We won't strengthen with the American bastards owning us.

    2 points out of the 21 in our last 7 home games is a disgrace. Unless we sign a clinical finisher then say goodbye to our PL status. Our current forwards waste chance after chance and today was a prime example when we should have easily been 3 - 0 in front before half time.

    What manager you know of making subs at half-time?

    Exactly. We will hang in there just about. Picking up enough points here and there to keep us ticking over. It's just awful to watch. We just need some attacking players with a bit of xfactor. If you look at those teams who looked in trouble but are now getting out of it like what ham and palace they have got attacking players who can make something happen from open play....We do not

    Game we should have and would do with a proper striker and number 10. It’s glaring now as is the need for a proper holding midfielder, goalkeeper and left back (and right back for that matter). However excuses about personnel is one thing, we had chances. The problem I have is we seem to have no clear plan at home, we look clueless. What are the manager and coaches doing in the week leading up to a game? I’d love to see how Rafas home PL record compares to other in our history. I can’t remember the last we won at home!

    That's right but until we get significant funds to buy good attacking players we are fooked...... Over to you Ashley.

    Ayew outjumped both of our centre halves twice for their goal. Poor defending, mind Swansea will say the same about our goal.
