Chesney was excellent tonight.
He was a gee hair away from getting to Lennon - too late to pull out - give the chap a break

Personally I wouldnt go over the top slating him over the penno - he is young, raw and made a mistake and that will happen. However his inability to come out and actually catch those crosses should be a major concern. When we are under pressure from set pieces we need a keeper to come out and claim those crosses and slow the game down and fisting them clear just dont do it

He can't say it's beyond us now but the pained look on his face shows he is thinking something otherwise. The guy looks gaunt and ill. The stress has been getting to him.
and who's fault is that then, only himself to blame.

i must admit i was expecting a moan about the pitch, fixture congestion, the penalty etc but there was none of that.

maybe he is finally accepting his youth project has failed

Oh dear, Wenger talking up our "16 game unbeaten run" again :?

Seriously, who gives a shit?? :? - it's completely meaningless when you DRAW 5 OUT OF 6 LEAGUE GAMES!!! :banghead: - that's 10pts dropped out of a possible 18!!! that's what's important!!! :x

If you drew every game you'd end up on 38 points and go down.

Turnip would probably consider it as good as a trophy. :banghead:

Agreed. But thats modern day keeping for you - even the top ones come out and punch nowadays. We are just used to Jennings, Lukic, Seaman etc coming out and catching everything :?:

I think he is showing good maturity - he only turned 21 last week

The guy looks like he's having a mental break down. He really should just pack it in even for his own sake, he honestly does look even worse each week and his ranting to 4th officials is embarrassing.

I just dont understand how he could continue with this next season, it really isn't healthy.

I don't want to bang on repeating points others have already said, but if we had one or two more leaders in the team we'd have walked this league.
Disagree.
He supposed to sit - but he just won't sit :banghead:

The sad sight of a has been manager, constantly with his head in his hands or flapping his arms at the 4th official.

Mate, after less than 30 seconds of the second half, he got himself booked.

Song has absolutely no intelligence and will never become a top level footballer.

Song is unenthusiastic and lazy.

An average player and absolutely useless in an intense game of this type.

Get rid and replace with Scotty Parker.
