I don't hate the bloke or everything about him - and I'd be delighted to be proved wrong but I don't think he should be our manager. the fact that we are 1 point or whatever it is off of 4th isn't a reflection on him as much its a reflection on the state of 4 clubs who are 29 points behind the top spot.

I don't agree logic has gone out of the window. I don't think it's illogical to ask a team to be flexible or play their players in the right position or to see beyond the end of your nose and recognise that you are making your job harder in so many ways by not blooding quality youngsters. I don't think it's impressive to belittle your players in front of the media.

We're not the 80's Chelsea when being sht but having a laugh with it is enough. It's not a badge most want to wear anymore. We are just as likely to drop further behind the top 5 as we are to cut what will be a near 40 point gap at the end of the season. Being a little less sht than others isn't good enough when you have the resources available to be better than them.
