Problem is Smith and Gene are too old now to loan out

Quote: K-Diddy "I think we get the win next week. Reckon they’ll do the annoying Hull thing of putting a performance in & getting the result, leading us all to believe they’ve turned a corner, only to be utterly useless & clueless for 4/5 games after that.'"


I like the optimism, but it'll likely be a swift hatrick and Jake Conor masterclass that seals uncle Tony's fate

Not sure about the other 14 after yesterday?'"


Agree on Hoy & Ese’ese but thought Houghton was poor and again had to be brought off due to tightening in his hamstring. So no doubt Smith put him back in starting and on for 80 mins again with Balmforth left in the stands.

I wouldn’t play him simply for sitting on the side of the pitch sulking while off the field. A proper captain/leader would be on the sidelines ripping into them or geeing them up. Not isolating away from everybody.

Probably wishful thinking on my part but I wouldn't put it past FC to win next weekend. They do like to tease us fans from time to time with a flicker of hope just when we least expect it.

you mean like pointing out weeks ago that Smith needs to go as he is taking us backwards particularly creating the most undisciplined team in S/L that he either cant solve or cant be bothered to solve.
I am sorry that it sometimes takes time to get through to some but in this case it was obvious we were going nowhere but rock bottom under Smith

Personally I think we don’t turn a corner

It looks as though they’ve stopped playing for Uncle Tony and chip butty Stan

Even if Tones does a ‘hairdryer’ I think they’d laugh behind his back

The new Aussie guys likely wonder what they’ve turned up for ?
A soft regime must be puzzling to them

The players don’t seem concerned about consequences of a poor performance and it’s likely there are still plenty of them who chat on What’s App etc and know that there’s safety in numbers here

We have no LEADERS in the dressing room

The 2016/2017 team had Leaders that made the rest of the team fall into line

You only need 3-4 in a squad of 30
They force weaker players to fit in or fook off

Tony and Stan can’t do it and I don’t see a single leader in that dressing room

WHY haven’t we recruited players who are known as Leaders ?

Another glaring mistake

For me it’s going to be a walloping at Giants and we should drop 4-5 players

I am in admiration of any supporter that makes the journey to Ricky’s before the game

If only Ricky’s was still there. It’s been demolished I believe.

I'd send Carlos, Okunbor and Pele to Doncaster for a week to send a message out to the rest of the team that below par performances won't be tolerated...the likelihood is they'll all be playing (if not injured/banned) next week v Hudds though after making their amends in training throughout the week (but then forgetting all theyve learnt on game day)

Well gone, along with Bradley Mills Club demolished and Gas Club shackled and chained shut.
Back in the day, innit.

I felt for him. Playing his 400th game for the same club where he joined only a handful of players who have done this he could have been so disappointed with the result and his hamstring injury.
First saw him play back in 2010 whilst on holiday in the UK and that day he outshone Cunningham the renowned Saints hooker.

Do have a DR agreement with Donny?

I think if I had the choice between Pauli Pauli and Okunbor I'd choice the first one.
