Simple, same as every week. We can’t score a bloody goal so we can’t win a bloody game! Analysis over. We’re matching them matching them playing well clap clap, means nothing if you can’t score a goal! Can have 99.9% possession if you want but still won’t ever win!
And of course the fact that we didn’t sign a striker in the summer was 100% Ralph’s fault.

We are literally playing like an u10s team. Their goals were so, so easy.

We create nothing. We have no discernible style of play.

Post whatever stats you like. We are atrocious

We effectively started with 10 men because Theo is anonymous.

why, why why

We signed Mara. He is a striker.

I get what you are saying, but these performances are on Ralph. If not, what does he actually do for £6m pa?

He has to go, it is indefensible, and laughable anyone who thinks otherwise (not suggesting you are Ralph in btw I have no idea).

The performance today hasn’t been bad. It just hasn’t.

I don’t want Ralph to stay. I think his time is up. But this has been a very weird game, that we’ve played well in. They’ve scored every attempt they’ve had on target, whereas we’ve had at least two we really really should have scored against the league’s best defence.
 
You’re all going to think I’m weird, but I actually think in general play, we’ve been the better team today. We just can’t put the ball in the bag.

A few okay patches, but like I said, you’ll see that in the FA Cup 3rd round if Forest Green played Newcastle.

We can’t create and can’t defend. You don’t win points for nice one-twos on the halfway line, sadly.

Who in their right mind plays Theo f*cking Walcott, mate? Come on.

Dont totally disagree, but it is yet another embarrassment at the hands of Ralph.

I wouldn’t give him Liverpool, I think it should happen tonight.

Didn’t say it’s Ralph’s fault. We’ve just managed to assemble a team with the least natural goal scoring ability known to mankind ever. Score more if we played 11 goalkeepers. Sure McCarthy would outscore che by accident if he also played 38 games a season upfront

I actually agree that Ralph’s time has probably come, as I think most of us do. There is no need to make personal attacks against him as though he had committed some despicable crime though. He’s a decent bloke, who’s a bit out of his depth in the Premier League it seems.

Shouting and swearing about him ALL THE ****ING TIME is just unnecessary. That isn’t just against you Billy, but I’m just bored with the same old people saying the same old things.
 
Edozie looks exciting in his cameo again.

Really glad he barely gets a chance. Thanks Ralph

Yeah, guess that works both ways though Chilco. I mean, lots of people realised Ralph should have been sacked so many months ago. Now people like you and others see it, what that makes it acceptable does it as you have given your approval his time is up?

And if I want to put a swear word in, I and others are entitled to do so, we dont need you bringing people up on it.

As long as said poster isn’t offending any other poster, we should be able to say whatever we want.

If you don’t like people being mean to Ralph that’s your problem. No offense meant or anything. That’s just how it should be.

Did anyone read the Athletic article from Redmond today? Very telling about Ralph I thought…

I have no words any more. Anything I say you will twist to your own ends Billy.

Nice goal.
