    No problem with the observation ... but what I will say is that Kramaric looks a very exciting talent to me ... but won't score sitting on he bench..

    So because Hull are so sh*t, you should be bottom of the league? You don't think it could be that two promoted teams just aren't up to it?
    Don't go down the "off-field issues" route Rick. Every Club has off-field issues, probably none more so than QPR. Bringing stuff like that up is just excuses.

    Don't know why the Manager's gone. He said it was his knees and so did the Board. I'm Phucked if I know. Pearson is still there though isn't he?

    Speaking of which, what THE FU*K was Blockhead doing to that Palace player today? Grabbing him by the throat, mouthing into his face when the player was trying to get up, holding onto his arm for 10 seconds and then in the post match interview saying "I can look after myself, don't worry about that"? Its like he thought the player smashed into him on purpose. Either he was embarrassed at being up-ended in front of thousands of people or he's just cracking under the pressure. Either way, he needs to sort himself out.

    I don't doubt what you say but it makes it more of an unusual signing from Pearson (Who I must admit does show signs of cracking under pressure). You needed somebody to come in and start delivering, that's why I would have had somebody with experience who doesn't need time to get used and up to speed with the premier league, as seems the case with Kramaric. It's time you don't have, he needs to be playing if he's going to change your fortunes around.

    Kramaric was playing far too deep yesterday. Picking the ball up in midfield. He ain't gonna score from there

    Team selection is a joke at the mo & then playing a player like Krammy in that roll. Maybe that bloke that gobbed off to NP at the KING POWER had a good point.
    It´s like a school report - A 5, not fitting in, must improve, could & should do better & at this rate will have to go to an easier class (champ´ship).

    I fear it's already to late for you mate. You have 17 points from 24 games and 4 of your next 5 games are away at Arsenal, Everton, Man City and Spurs. I just don't see you staying up or even hitting 30pts <sorry>

    We can now play the `new manager card` (so I understand it.) You know, get a new manager & you start to win. :confused: You´ve got to try & hold on to some hope in your life ain´t ya.

    Heard you lads played very well again tonight. That's two games in a row you've put in top performances. The points will surely start to follow.

    Still very tight down there

    We are at the bottom and have the toughest task to escape - no question - but it is not impossible and if we can start to convert the chances we are creating whilst stabilising at the back then the task is by no means impossible - the sides around us are not setting the world alight, are markedly inconsistent and many have lost games by a 3 goal margin or more (which we have not) - if we stay up on goal difference that is OK by me <whistle>

    That gap is starting to get bigger , will you win two more matches than anyone else at the bottom ? With your fixtures that remain I think your doomed

    Our next 4 are horrible fixtures, which we could quite conceivably lose each one of.
    Let's hope we aren't too cut adrift though, because after that, we have some quite winnable games...

    HULL
    Tottenham
    WEST HAM
    West Brom
    SWANSEA
    Burnley
    NEWCASTLE
    SOUTHAMPTON
    Sunderland
    QPR

    We COULD put a pretty decent run together out of that... Whether we will or not remains to be seen, and I admit we are probably going down, but it ain't over til it's over...

    If Jelavic and N'Doye are fit on 14th of March your defenders need to be prepared to have a new arsehole torn Jack, seriously ;)

    I think Everton away has to be looked at as "winnable", especially after last night's performance. They're currently in the bottom half, and matches against any team in that area needs to be regarded as a serious opportunity.

    On a different note, if we do go down, I seriously hope Villa don't drop with us. They would be a serious threat to us next season. Hopefully they'll drop and we won't! :)

    Should be a good game then - Mahrez tore the Arsenal defence apart last night and Ulloa and Kramaric, once in tune, will cause defences problems ... looking forward to it.

    LOL crikey, don't hear hide nor hair from you for weeks, you win a game against a "WeCan'tScoreForToffee" Aston Villa, and you're all over here telling us that King Jelavic is going to tear us a new one <laugh>

    ... why not? ... somebody has to win so somebody has to lose ... we've already played Liverpool, Man United and Arsenal twice ... we have Chelsea and Southampton at home and Man City and Spurs (who we have beaten away already) away - nobody else has shown me anything that suggests they are not eminently beatable ...

    ... fine margins admittedly - but it has been acknowledged by people far more knowlegeable than I that our general play has been deserving of more than our points total currently ... if we can start to convert more of teh chances we are creating a 'good run' is definitely possible ...

    I actually had this thought this morning, but i think our players will be more prepared for the Championship than Villa seeming most of our team was there last year <ok> Totally different ball game in the Championship, as clubs like Fulham, Wigan and Wolves have found out.
