    And Maitland-Niles isn't even our player. The c*nt will piss off in May. Perraud is our actual player. Being treated like a mug by Selles.

    To be honest I'd rather them than a lot of the other fan bases.

    I’d forgotten that part. Makes you wonder what on Earth he’s actually here for then as I can’t imagine he was really loaned to be back up RB.

    Unfortunately for me, every other football fan in Swindon is a Liverpool fan( even though most haven’t been to anfield).
    They will be crowing from the roof tops.

    Literally, whats the point.

    We aren't staying up, might as well wait till the summer now and let someone come in and start afresh in the championship.

    Honestly, f*cking abysmal. I didn't think it could get worse than Jones, but Selles has managed it.

    Exactly, why should he be allowed to get out of it any sooner than us?!

    The point is we don't waste any more money on him. Today we had to go for it - it was a must win game. Instead if was all pedestrian and lame passes on the halfway line. In his first game against Chelsea he started Paul and he looked really effective. Why has he ****ing changed it to this ****?

    We had that at Stamford Bridge. My one joyful memory from this piss soaked mattress of a season.

    We were putting crosses in to the box all game, then as soon as we brought tall paul on, we totally stopped

    Well be paying him the same regardless of whether we sack him or not.

    I get what you mean and agree with your reasoning, but if Selles was the caretaker to Ralph and keeps making the same mistakes Ralph did, then I’d hazard a guess that the caretaker to the caretaker will probably still do exactly the same thing but we’ll be in the position of having to pay 4 managers at the same time.

    Yeah sacking Selles would be idiotic. Who would even take charge til the end of the season? One of the coaching team who would probably do exactly the same stuff as him anyway

    I still refuse to believe that premier league level footballers collectively don’t have a football brain to realise that if you have a huge striker up front you should cross it. Even if Selles is saying on the sideline to play a slower tempo build up

    Just get any competent manager in. Someone with some actual f*cking experience. Benitez, Brendan Rodgers.

    Yeah, the lack of intelligence from the players on the pitch is quite something.

    Neither of those would come here even if we survived. I’d put money on us hiring a younger manager next, just hope it’s the right fit
