Subscriber RandoEFC+ Posted May 8, 2022 Subscriber Share Posted May 8, 2022 Elsewhere, West Ham are 3-0 up at Norwich already. Hopefully already relegated Watford offer a similar level of resistance when we go there on Wednesday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was praising your fans for finally realising that getting behind the team is better than getting on their backs every week or chatting shit about 'Kopite behaviour'?

Best away here all season. Your fans have really turned up this last month or so. Agreed. It was superb. The chant that was going on for about 20 mins after the 2nd goal I think was great. As for us, there's just a general malaise around the club it seems. I don't think it's even about not having anything to play for. There should be plenty to play for, if not for themselves but at least for the fans. Fofana the only one that comes out of that with any credit to be honest.

Administrator Stan Posted May 8, 2022 Author Administrator Share Posted May 8, 2022 Not seen any of the Pickford saves back but from where I was they were outstanding. The shot from Barnes (which really he should have buried with power) and the save from Mendy in particular. The latter probably more difficult given the distance and dive, but he kept Everton in the game today. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just wait until he concedes from a free header whilst arguably being half a yard out of position next weekend though so we can get a week of Talksport banging on about how inconsistent he is.

He nearly went walkabout right at the end though if I remember correctly. Castagne's header could have looped over if he connected right. He has won you points more than just the last 2 games to be fair. Very, very important recently though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm glad a neutral has said it and it makes me think I'm not overreaacting. We've been appalling virtually all season. I've heard every excuse in the book but things haven't changed and that result earlier, it's just criminal. We're at the 9th of May and we're still not actually mathematically safe. How do you go from 5th in the league to this? I saw a lot of this coming a while ago as well. I said it many a time throughout the season but we were getting mediocre at best results and we were often fortunate to even be getting that if you judged it on our actual creativity of chances and general defending. We need a new direction now. It's all well and good saying give him the first X games of next season but I don't really see how the pros of doing that outweigh the cons. We allow him another summer, cross our fingers that the fundamental issues go away (blind faith I think they call it) and then just pull the trigger in the autumn when we could've allowed somebody else to shape the squad for their own objectives going forward. I may be harsh and fairly ruthless but I play the numbers game. I want us to be proactive here. I didn't think there was any chance he'd go but hearing the owner was there today I think they've got to see quite how bleak it's gone. It was toxic there today. The conference league was the only thing keeping our season going and we went out of that with a typically limp performance. Rodgers out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Subscriber Dan+ Posted May 8, 2022 Subscriber Share Posted May 8, 2022 I know some people on here hate expected goals but if you don't, then here - only Burnley, Norwich and Watford have been poorer than us for them this season. We've got to wake up. It's abject stuff. This squad is so much better than this. I still think it's better than West Ham & Wolves' squads and the fact we've been reduced to a position where that could be deemed laughable is infuriating. Fucking dog shit.

Subscriber Dan+ Posted May 9, 2022 Subscriber Share Posted May 9, 2022 His post match today was an absolute disgrace as well. I know he's always been a bit of a waffler but I can overlook post match comments a lot of the time as I don't think they 'really' matter. But he's genuinely said that we were happy just to survive before he got here. Even if you overlook 2015/16 as a miracle that's just outright bollocks. That hasn't once been the case since 2016. Puel got hounded out of here and I'm genuinely at a point where I don't think even he was this bad in a particular season. We weren't any worse than this put it that way. The self preservation and changing of the goalposts is just too much now. I'm starting to really, really dislike him. That's an absolute insult to the ownership who've reinvented things somewhat since the ecstasy of the Ranieri era. He had fucking good tools here. How can you inherit a squad with Vardy, Schmeichel, Evans, Ricardo, Maddison, Tielemans, Chilwell, Iheanacho, Ndidi, Soyuncu and others I've probably missed and even say that? A team like Watford would have fucking statues of any of those players by now. He's lost the fans now I think. I think he'd lost them for the most part after Forest but the conference league provided a bit of a distraction, but ultimately we came up short in that too. Poll on Foxestalk with 500 votes has just 22% voting Rodgers to stay. It's one thing underperforming but to insult the intelligence of the fans, and the owners as well like that. Disgraceful comments and he can fuck off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Roy decided to take a load of wedge on a promise that wouldn't have ever work out. Fair play to him. He got them back into some sort of control but the issue with the Watford is with the Owners. To bring Watford back into contention, they need to be prepared to spend wisely. I would suggest the people at Watford pay attention to what Brentford are doing. Watford also need to find a manager who has the bollocks to tell the Possi clan that they're stupid. Without a manager with a plan and a vision, Watford will stay in the Championship and maybe even worse Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
