11 games to go.
The sooner we are put out our misery the better.
Can't add anything new to what we have seen and said for a year.
So anyone think tudor gets sacked before our game and spurs bring in a new man. and Richarlison scores the winner on Sunday? ??
Ed1 you may as well give up on match reports. not sure how much it would take to re watch our games, but you deserve better fella.
{Ed001's Note - it has become a real chore, even rewatching our wins is no longer as enjoyable due to the footie played.}

It was mentioned previously that Slot's agent was in talks with Spurs, so imagine Slot being named Spurs manager before the weekend...
Stranger things have happened... but yes, I do think it won't happen, as he will be here till the end of the season.
It's just inexplicable as to what has happened to Slot and these players... I don't think anyone would have guessed that we would have been in this poor state of affairs.

Your last point is the most annoying thing, JLC. It's so hard to put your finger on exactly what's gone wrong, so the supporters just flail around blaming everyone involved. This season has been an embarrassment. I don't expect to win every year, but at the very least, we should be competitive.

Nobody is excusable for last night's performance.
Unfortunately for Slot, it's always the manager that falls on his sword. If not, we'd still have Hodgson at the helm.
I imagine quite a few of the players might end up not being here also next season at a guess Robbo, Konate, Mac, Endo, Salah, Chiesa & Gakpo.
Not that I'm saying it's all their fault, but those are who I believe will be moved on.
Hate to say it, but it looks like Slot has lost the dressing room, the players are picking and choosing when they want to turn up.
No one can tell me that other factors affect the players at Molyneux on a Tuesday night and not 3 nights later at the same venue.

JK, I agree with your point regarding players leaving, but seeing it written like that just emphasises what a big job any new manager will have in the summer.
Losing that many players, some of them big names, in one go is never easy. The club is really going to have to invest again this year, which sounds mad considering the sums spent last year.
11 Mar 2026 09:04:30
Exactly Ed1. I really don't get excited anymore when we win. It has gotten that low for me. The football is abysmal!
11 Mar 2026 09:26:09
Stuie, agree mate, but that's only the world seen by me.
The club might end up keeping all them players and signing them to new and improved contracts.
11 Mar 2026 09:48:25
I agree. Even when we win, it just feels like a loss, it's that boring. Can't believe he's still manager. Club don't care 1 single bit about this season, it was chucked last year.

Indeed, Ed. Like many of our games this season and esp. of late, I just sit, fold my arms and see what happens. I did the same thing last night. It was a dreadful watch for the upteenth time this season.
Like the OP said, we will be put out of our misery in 11 games time (in terms of watching this rubbish) and then, let the chips fall where they may afterwards.
Oh and one last thing, Ed01. Pls, do not bother your pretty little head about doing match reviews. I wouldn't wish that on anyone at this point.

Desperately trying to find a positive from last night - The return leg cannot be as bad, can it?
11 Mar 2026 10:12:35
I missed the first twenty minutes. I was not surprised to turn on the TV and see we were 1-0 down.
Feeling pretty indifferent at this point, just waiting for the season to end and hoping next is better.

I think Tudor & Spurs could achieve a confidence-boosting victory at the weekend, with the way we're playing.
11 Mar 2026 10:56:57
Hey Willo, losing to this Spurs side would be awful. I think we are at home as well. We should smash them 3 or 4 nil. This will give Slot a little bit of breathing space.
11 Mar 2026 13:14:20
JK and Stuie, it's one reason why I think Iraola will be the next head coach.
He's proved he can deal with a lot of squad changes, and we are going to have a lot of squad changes.
