A fair defence Ty, I am all for debate on here. Unfortunately I am not persuaded by your argument when it comes to Warnock.

He is past it and even if it was tongue in cheek years ago, the fact he said he would love the Wednesday job so he could relegate us means he can fuck off and then fuck off again just to be sure. Crikey you will be wanting Joe Elliot and Paul Heaton to do a half time gig next

Always time to re-collect the game v Swansea in 1983 in freezing conditions Us real men grr on the Kop all huddled together like penguins

And in Sheffield

I didn't realise we were playing 15 other teams this weekend as well.

As I have said there are a few things that have become the assumed truth 1) He sold the stadium to himself - nope it was an intercompany transaction that we see day in day out 2) His wife owns the stadium - well not according to Companies House 3) He has debt of £19m secured against the stadium - not according to the disclosure in the annual accounts and they have no idea the evidence an auditor would need to have to confirm that 4) That Chansiri is plastered on the stadium to justify the sponsorship value paid into the company The shite spouted on Stalk is generally unchecked, a few honourable exceptions but they get hounded off there when the narrative does not fit As you say the other social media channels pick up on it, and this fuels the angst. I think there are valid criticisms of how DC runs the show for sure. I do question how you would get meaningful engagement though.

I understand that - but even the most ardent supporters of Chansiri must question some of the ticket prices

Not round here the fuckers never turn up after Wednesday

I think we are deluding ourselves if we think a new coach could make a silk purse out of a sow's ear. This is not being in support of Xisco in the slightest. A new coach could raise the standard above where it is. But I am simply not convinced there is enough in the squad in the first place to massively improve matters. Tee and KM have identified those weaknesses. Even Vasquez, I agree is reasonable, but on crosses, on corners he looks inadequate. In a League of tight margins that is where you will concede. It's still early in the season for sure, but we need say 51 points to stay up. 39 games to play so already we need to win 13, draw 13 to achieve that. I can see us getting the draws, but we simply do not have the goals in us and just as relevant the ability not to leak goals to really question where those wins will arise.

For the avoidance of doubt I would be happy for Chansiri to continue owning the Club if I could see a semblance of a long term plan rather than the awful scattergun approach we see. Plus if he totally re-thought ticket pricing. It was actually cheaper to go to the Etihad, including the train fare over there, to watch Champions League football

I get people want to have a degree of hope but I can't argue with any of your analysis. I have my doubts about Xisco, but I can't see how another coach would be able to raise the basic standard of the players. You can't fault their effort, they are committed, they aren't underperforming their ability. Sadly I just think that ability is marginally below the standard elsewhere in the Championship

I can't see how we are going to win games - it's going to be a constant struggle to score goals. It was a good goal, Byers should have scored, but beyond that ? At the same time the defence and keeper have a mistake in them And when midfield does lose control then the opposition create way too many chances. We were fortunate that their final ball was as bad as ours But it's more I can't see how much we can up it quality wise. I just think it's a very average group of players

Tbh it was 5% better - but I personally fail to see where adequate quality is. Far too many weak links all around the pitch

I mean apart from Boro were as poor as us and as devoid of confidence too. Our midfield is piss poor and there is no strike force to cause issues There was at least a semblance of a style of play, but its all far too slow and predictable. And better sides will carve through us far too easily

The basic footballing skills of some of our players leaves a lot to be desired. How one decent bit of play can be immediately undone by crossing it into the Kop, that clearance at the end when you have time puts us under pressure with a free kick. One positive was Valentin, not difficult to be MoM amongst that lot. At least its a point but still not much to suggest that we have the quality to avoid relegation

I think we have to accept we are just not very good

Dracula in goal for us. Doesn't like crosses

Some deuce

It is better for sure. I still have concerns that once the opposition get hold of the ball it's still a bit too easy to pass through the lines in midfield and slide in balls to the attacking players. We therefore need to keep going forward and not sit back inviting pressure

Ah I get it now. I was watching last night's Only Connect and was celebrating getting a right answer

No idea, he might have sold us on, he might have pulled funding, covid could have killed football, Sky could have dropped out of football, best mention Brexit The answer is more given the money spent have we actually progressed in the pyramid

Certainly not on league position

Stadium is owned by Sheffield 3, which is owned by Sheffield 5, that Companies House says is owned by DC

More like it

That is an impossible hypothesis to prove. Let's say Red Bull had acquired us
