Pure attack against defense here. We went about 20 minutes without leaving our half early on.

Arsenal's attempts to break us down haven't exactly been inspiring and most openings have come from us giving the ball away but I suspect they'll get there eventually.

He’s an absolutely massive cunt, I hope Newcastle sell him to a club outside of England soon. I’d be happy if I never have to see him again.

Aside from being a cheat, he’s also a very dirty player.

Indeed. He didn't even get booked for diving! Then he commits a studs-on-shin foul on Mavididi. Gets booked for that. 

So should be off.

Surprise point at the Emirates, Leicester get humped to finish their new manager bounce, too bad Ipswich spoiled the perfect day by winning it late at Wolves. I'd rather it was them than Wolves at least but a draw would have been amazing for us with neither of them gaining ground on us when they had each other and we had Arsenal away. Can't see how Wolves can justify not sacking O'Neil after that.

Really good, disciplined performance from us. Unambitious approach and a hard watch but they showed a pair of bollocks which they failed to do at Spurs and Old Trafford and that's all we can ask currently. Arsenal were very poor, couldn't find another gear or create a proper big chance. We didn't even ride our luck that much to be honest barring a couple of top class saves from Pickford.

That time added on was a joke. Iwobi was down for two minutes a couple of minutes into added time. The ref plays less than thirty seconds over the minimum. 

Anyway, got to take the positives out of that with being down to ten men for so long and we were playing against twelve for much of it

Bet the dipshit refs blame us for their mate getting sacked so we should probably get used to “inept” displays from them that are worse than their usual low standards.

Don’t like me complaining about the refs? Then demand refs do better

There's complaining about the refs though and then there's touting conspiracies about how they're out to get you now because you were very loosely related to an incident that got one of them sacked xD

Yeah well until they do things that don’t open them up to conspiracy theories it’s fair game

I can't get my head around what Wolves are doing this season. That squad is easily good enough for this to be a "bad start, new manager bounce, had a scare but now we're sound" season. 

They've stuck with O'Neil and catastrophically lost 3 on the bounce to other teams in the bottom seven. Conceded an average of 2.5 goals per game. Their players are being dragged down the tunnel after the final whistle. They're more than a win from 17th place after today. It's a full blown crisis now. It'll be absolutely astonishing if they don't sack him ahead of the Leicester game.

They’ve been so badly run for a while now, I doubt even a “new manager bounce” will save them.

Gary O’Neill’s not a good manager at this level, but I think they’re going down regardless of whoever they bring in after him.

They might be badly run but they've still got players left who should be good enough to stay up.

I know from my club that if you can just scrape by one way or another and stay in the league it gives you another 12 months for something to go right and turn the tide. Everton could have been relegated in any of the last 3 seasons but refused and now you've got new ownership, new stadium to look forward to.

Wolves have been dragged into the mire for the first time in years and the entire club just seems to be capitulating.
