Good morning ed025 I see your highlights you can't be happy with them 3 goals yesterday all three total gifts. You have given away that chance of champions league football if it goes down to 6th place form could not have dropped at a worse time mate but saying that I can't see us winning Brentford think we are playing the worst football in the league.
{Ed025's Note - hi Grino, thank god we never got CL football mate and even the Europa league because we would be an embarrassment with these players and especially this manager, yes its a re-build but performances like yesterday prove to me that there is still a long way to go my friend..

Ed025 I don't know if you need to be that good in the champions league with this format Ed to get to the last 16 spurs got there easily.
I don't know if you can still get Europe Ed I don't know how far it goes down now because it's getting ridiculous nearly half the league is in Europe.
{Ed025's Note - yeah Grino i preferred it when only the Champions got in the Champions league mate...but its all about money now..

Hey Ed, a former work colleague of mines husband passed away recently, . They are both massive blues. So nice to see a banner commemorating his memory, that was a nice touch yesterday.
{Ed025's Note - yeah Willo it was a nice tribute mate and also the one for young Bradley Lowery, our club is great for that sort of thing...shame about the football..

Ed25
Can I interrst you in a multi title winning manager. for free?
His XG stat pack is off the charts.
THE FINE PRINT
he doesn't believe in youth, squad rotation, or attacking play, . he has zero charisma. likes a cheeky holiday. gives all your players extra days off too. tells everyone how to beat you, then complains when they do just that. he doesn't like the wind. alienates any player he doesn't like, will play 4 players out of position rather than using one that actually plays there. Wont chnage anything even if it is obvious.
{Ed025's Note - thanks but no thanks MR.. :)

Wait, Ed25. As people often say, "It is the hope that kills you".
{Ed025's Note - it really is Oli, thats why i have empathy for the reds supporters mate..
18 May 2026 12:48:01
Think the core of the side's decent, Tarkowski looking a bit weak these days though, and you deffo need a goal scorer, Beto gets into great positions but finishing isn't great, but he's useful. If he's missing though, that Barry is nigh on useless, he'd fit in with our lot at the minute.
{Ed025's Note - both our forwards are useless Jerry, yes Beto tries but the guy couldn,t trap a bag of cement, the fault is with the manager who only has one way of playing mate...lump it up to a lamppost and hope for 2nd phase ball, Barry would not get a game for Southport..

Ed, saw the Coleman stuff. Is that true that most fans already leave the stadium before him having proper send off? Kinda sad for someone who spent almost entire career at the club.
{Ed025's Note - some did leave the stadium early Mfahmee, but it was not out of disrespect for one of our greatest players mate it was due the embarrassing football we played and it looked like Seamus was not going to get on the field, well thats how i seen things..
18 May 2026 12:48:24
Thought you let yourselves down badly yesterday ed0025.
I know that was another tough performance to take but Seamus deserved a better send off than that mate. Poor fella had hardly anybody there.
{Ed025's Note - yeah not ideal Wassa, maybe he will get a run out next week..
18 May 2026 13:13:19
Ed25, maybe this will serve as some good experience gained because let's face it for over a decade, you have not been in this situation of chasing European let alone CL footie.
Maybe should you find yourselves in the same position next season, you will recognise the assignment and execute accordingly. I mean, we weren't a winning club either when Klopp started and had to lose some in order to know how to win when the occasions re-presented themselves.
Take heart, man. Been there. Done that.
{Ed025's Note - i see it as more a lack of quality than experience Oli, we looked tired and quite lethargic i think mate...and playing this pragmatic going out to draw rubbish with this manager has not helped the situation..
18 May 2026 14:52:34
"Playing this pragmatic going out to draw rubbish with this manager has not helped the situation."
I think both things can be correct here, but I do agree that if Moyes still continues to approach games this, then forget whatever it is I said.
