    That Lascelles mistake for the Sissoko chance, trying to wipe the bloke out and he couldn't even do that was comical.

    Ha ha ha. Jesus Christ. Your opening two sentences are completely wrong. They have bought an asset. They have not offered money. They also ****ed up their due diligence so had to invest more money. That’s their own fault.

    As for the coaching: they got a failed coach.

    They can’t manage **** all because managing involves a degree of erm making the right decisions: and so far they can’t even make the right decision in the right time frame.

    As far as their passion is concerned I accept they are passionate: but passionate is not professional.

    So ffs take a reality pill and see where we are in the league/ which is no better than when they took over……

    Another great result under Howe and the new regime.

    Which will attract more quality players.

    And we are storming up the league.

    Oh wait I am not sleep walking.

    Ah well relegation reality has set in.

    You’re wrong.

    First sentence, he’s right you are wrong.

    Second sentence, he’s right you are wrong the owners are offering money (to buy new players) they don’t play, they don’t coach and they don’t manage and they have shown passion.

    TBF it’s you that needs the reality pill. You’re expecting 14 years of Ashley’s neglect to be corrected in 3 months and within half a transfer window. The old saying Rome wasn’t built in a day springs to mind but you appear to subscribe to the magic wand theory. You don’t know what’s happening behind the scenes but are quite happy to criticise based on guesses and assumptions.

    Some of us acknowledge how bad we are and have been and are prepared to accept it will take time to put things right. Also it won’t be a smooth road as people will make mistakes but what’s the point in hounding people, it won’t help.

    Simple question in the long term are we going to have better prospects under the New Crew or Ashley? If the New Crew then give them time and give them a chance and please stop whining.

    Yeah ok mate. I’m wrong: but let’s check the league table. Let’s checks the results. Let’s check the pointers let’s check that compared to Bruce last season and bang.

    All of a sudden I’m right. You see Bruce did better with the same players. So there isn’t anything to undo. There is something to emulate and improve on.

    Your just in complete denial. Your in a world of hope which is admirable.

    To add more depth to my argument. I am saying nothing on what’s happening behind the scenes. Why would I. I am saying what is out there in real life and not this fantasy bullshit world where people are seeing things that are not happening.

    I am not asking for a magic wand. I am asking for a slight improvement however minuscule it may be since Bruce left.

    The reality check isn’t mine to have my friend. I’m in the reality and it’s grim. You seem to be in a fantasy world where something magic is going to happen?

    And as for whining. It’s not even that you muppet. It’s called seeing reality.

    Im still yet to be convinced from anyone that things are better. We are not better league wise and that’s what matters.

    So whilst you think I’m whining/ I think your blind.

    Notice you ignore the question again.

    Plus what have the league tables, the results and last season got to do with anything? You don’t know where we would be today or what results we would have had if Ashley had stayed and Bruce hadn’t been sacked. You can try and guess but that’s all it would be, a guess. Last season is literally last season and everyone has moved on and has no relevance or bearing on this season.

    Bruce didn’t do better with the same players. He didn’t win a game this season.

    I’m not in denial at all I simply haven’t given in and given up. For me you don’t quit you fight to the end. On the other hand, you…

    Get a grip man, they ARE offering money for transfers just not getting totally ripped off . I’ve never mentioned buying the club or due diligence but that doesn’t alter the clear fact that what they bought is a s***show and despite people like you thinking magic wands exist it’s going to take time.
    The “failed coach” has one relegation to his record with a small EPL team which wouldn’t and shouldn’t have happened if goal line technology hadn’t failed at Villa.
    They can’t manage the team or coach the TEAM is what I clearly meant.
    You can have passion and be professional.
    I think it’s you that needs to take a pill mate, if we had a s*** squad when they arrived and they don’t coach or manage (the team) and we’ve only just gone 2 weeks of the first transfer window how did you expect them to amazingly improve by now?
    Impatient and deluded fans? Clearly some are.

    Accept reality. That’s what I do.

    I see it for what it is. And accept it. The sooner you do the better for you.

    Weren’t you the one complaining about Welshie and personal insults? Pot, kettle black.

    You don’t know what is happening behind the scenes but you have constantly made assumptions about the New Crew delaying decisions etc. so you are commenting on what’s happening.

    Things being better. What about New Crew owning the Club and not Ashley. How about real players being actively being sought and not cheapest options?

    I expected them to appoint some staff and give it a go at survival.

    This current pish is embarrassing.

    You seem to be happy with things so that’s ok. I accept your accustomed to mediocrity under Ashley and it’s hard to accept things should be better.

    I feel for you. But like you indeed say. Maybe things will get better. Let’s hope so.

    I’m glad our grandparents didn’t just “accept reality”.
    Grow a pair man, fight to the end, back the team and club to the end and if they can’t undo Ashley’s disastrous reign in just over half a season take heart that we can come back stronger.

    Ok: I am fine with your comments but let’s see where we are at at the end of the season. I will remember and I’m certain I will be right.

    Tell that “fight to the end ****” to the players who have won 1/20 mate.

    They don’t seem to be on the same page as you.

    Sorry!

    Whilst your wearing the big boy pants could you ask Howe why he can’t seem to get a result of the players please.

    Maybe ask him to grow a pair and get things right for once.

    This try until we die attitude starts surely with him getting a good result!

    I’ve never claimed to be happy to be in our position but I’m not a whining defeatist and not unreasonably and unrealistically expecting miracles in a few months or expecting our new owners not to make mistakes.
    Happy? I’m over the moon to have rich ambitious exciting passionate new owners and prepared to back them to get things right whilst knowing it won’t happen overnight.

    Ok mate I like what your saying. Keep that positive **** going we are going to need it.

    Whining is such a poor word. I would much rather people said I’m being a negative defeatist. Much more intelligent.

    Using whining is akin to Howe saying he wished he could have helped us get more points since he took over.

    Ah yes. He did actually say that………///

    Also you say I’m whining. But it’s very close to the word winning/ difference is one is happening and the other is not.

    I can live with that given I’m right!
