Gotta give credit to the saints fans cos they have been dishing out abuse to the scum contingent all game - if it isn't "fcuk off Mourinho" it's "deli ali is a w.anker a w.anker" :coffeespit: :coffeespit: :coffeespit:

Is it just my hatred of the scum or was VAR soft on them for the Saints pen shout :?

I thought the same mate. The scum player was a fair distance away and his arm wasn't in a natural position from what I could see either

100% it wasn't in a natural position - isn't that one of the main criteria for judging if it should be a penalty or not ??

Anyway fcuk them cos they lost anyway :barscarf: :barscarf: :barscarf: :barscarf:

And to think there were some on here wanting yesterday's man Maureen as our new manager :D

Already taken their style of play 10 years backwards, apparently argued with Saints bench too. All going to plan. Just give him 100m+ to waste on absolute dross in the window and the demise will be complete. No way they are finishing top 4 under him

Just the players, officials, media and owner left to fall out with before the inevitable end

Spare a thought for poor old Eriksson - found out one of his team-mates was banging his wife behind his back, and has lost his place in a shit scum team and that in turn has seen his stock with Europe's big clubs nosedive alarmingly, even though he is available on a freebie. It looks like a shit manure side is the only "big club" interested in him now :lol: :lol: :lol:

That's what I thought and was genuinely shocked that VAR didn't give it.

But all is well with the world.....well for about 4 hours anyway :roll:

Moyes's hapless Hammers already 2 up against the team everyone's beating (apart from us, but we showed huge improvement to draw 1-1 :banghead: )

As funny as it is to see the scum losing that Southampton win actually puts them ahead of us in the table :shock:

Yep the same Southampton who lost 9-0 at home to Leicester and have been 70% of the season in the relegation zone. The season can’t get any more fucked up.

I am still shitting myself over the potential of this lot bringing us fucking down.

I think that realisation is going to set in for a lot of people mate. Watford and Saints scrapping their way out. Everton bounced under Dunc and subsequently the bloke not good enough for us, and West Ham 3-0 up against Bournemouth

Worst defensive unit in the whole division and the least experienced manager

Norwich beating Palace too lol

Don't think it can't happen - Kroenke will take us down

4 points off the drop zone, and just 8 off the bottom going into this one as things stand

I just looked at the table and had a flashback to the 94-95 season where we seemed to be permanently shit and constantly losing.

I feel sorry for eddie howe cos I think that he is a nice guy who has stayed too long out of loyalty to his Bournemouth, and now he has seen his reputation take a massive hit. I don't think we will ever know if he is a good enough manager for a big club, cos I think that he has chance to get a job at a big club is gone :(

I think that this season we will see bournemouth and burnley relegated back to the championship, although I would like to see Bournemouth stay up if I'm honest

It looks very much like a bloke who has taken a club as far as they can go under his management. A year ago might have been a good time to move on but no top 12 club would consider him a big enough name. He hasn't really had any experience of anything other than finishing 15th or wherever so wouldn't even get a go at a bigger club going through a shit run, like a West Ham or Watford or a club that needs an experienced relegation-fighter manager. If he wasn't getting linked for jobs at places like Newcastle or West Ham, Palace or Southampton, he's got no chance of moving to a bigger club. He'll end up at somewhere like a Leeds or Derby or Sheffield Wednesday by the summer. A decent sized club on decent money but nowhere higher.
