Ah, another one who things footballers should dictate their own salaries.

This is why its best that we don't let people like you run football clubs.


If they said £300k a week or they're off, you would've paid it presumably?

I have been watching the game back again and I afraid to say that Thomas has not come out smelling of roses either. I would say two goals he could have prevented if he had been more aggressive

They’re beating Middlesbrough now, fuck sake if they come into our game off their first win in ages and us off a 4-1 battering…

Edit: Luckily, they fucked it up. If we can’t beat them I’ll be really worried.

So we’ve spent 35 million on two players who you’d be gutted left

enough said

emc still hasn’t been consistent enough

let’s see how he’s playing end of Jan

We were talking about O’Hare.
He’s a proven Championship player in the same way Dasilva is.

You didn’t answer anyway. If O’Hare asked for £300k a week would you have paid it?

Not been so deflated in years - really was horrific “effort”.

Again at least it highlights huge issue for FL- could and should be some honest talks with DK.

Pathetic and embarrassing performance but a near perfect result for frank and his backroom team to see the real problems we have.

-recruitment team have recruited very poorly and blown most of the budget from previous player sales.

-the defence is almost at league 1 level. We cannot do the basics.

‬-not enough fight in the team. We need a midfield general and leaders in defence

-Collins not good enough at this level. Needs to go in January.

-give Frank time, not his players and he will get it right

Obiovulsy there's far more to it than this but when Kitching has started this season, our record, at least according to Soccerbase, is: WWDLWLWD

In the context of where we are in the table I'm not sure why he seems to have been singled out at the one who can't set foot on the pitch.

Ah, thank god for that - We need more players with that calibre.
The OP raised a very valid point.

That was shit but that happens sometimes

Hopefully Collins has ended his cov career

Move on the 26th, no point in over thinking something that was just shite.

Enjoy your weekends

Currently there is no way we improve on the numbers of this season if the team keep putting in performances like today! It’ll probably the first downwards curve in a few seasons!

Just watched the highlights back. Collins should never play for the club again. And ideally Dasilva too.

Been back ten minutes so not seen any highlights. First goal was opposite end so couldn't see what happened. Second goal was an obvious error from Da Silva. Marking for the third was atrocious and I actually felt for the fourth as Collins tried his best to keep it out.

A bit out of order to boo Collins during the game in my opinion. There were loads around me who were booing and shouting abuse at him. We would never do that in the past. Some of our fans are just cunts. FL should have acknowledged fans after but I'm not going to cry about it like the bloke next to me was nearly doing.

Nothing less than an emphatic win against the League's worst team will be acceptable.

He tried his best for all of them.

That’s the problem.
