Well we're back to being a basketcase because the chairman has decided to go on a power trip. Great. Just when we need a bit of stability and have the chance for it.

Thanks for that, ref. Absolutely shafted us there. Denied a stonewall penalty at 0-0, sends off Bacuna for absolutely nothing, knows he's fucked us, awards us a nothing penalty with the game gone at 3-0. Cheers. Thanks a bunch.

Well that was fucking awful. Credit Wigan, came and did a great job on us. We were powderpuff and short on ideas, they were physical, organised and bullied us. A well-earned win for them. I'm seriously worried about us.

I've just seen Ledson's tackle on Elphick, which looks to have ruled Elphick out for the season. It is a disgraceful 'challenge'. Actually, let's call it what it is: grievous bodily harm with intent. Bouncing ball that Ledson'...

If we get 10 points clear of the drop I'll start to relax, but that's 7 unbeaten, 4 wins and 4 clean sheets in that time, and without playing particularly well. Good signs for the future. We've turned a 5-point deficit on the side in 21st i...

Richard Keogh sacked by Derby. Considering the two with criminal convictions have just been allowed to carry on, he's got serious grounds for appeal. Whilst he shouldn't have done what he did, he's the least culpable and yet has had the wor...

Take a point there. Dire for an hour, got a soft penalty (it WAS a penalty, contrary to what Sky reckon - they're all banging on about the arm and contact there not being enough whilst completely missing Bennett's right leg booting Diakhaby'...

We won again! Twice in a week after 7 months without! Thumping win today. There was a sense of catharsis about the result with certain players and it was good to see smiles on faces again. Hopefully this can give us a real springboard up the table. And...

WE WON! Perfectly executed away game plan. Stoke were reduced to potshots from outside the box and never really troubled us. We had few shots, but we did create the two best chances of the game and buried one of them. With the ball we were pretty appalli...

Another frustrating afternoon. Millwall are never the side you want to face when you're on a downer, and so it proved. That said, we were architects of our own downfall yet again with a single individual mistake costing us two points. To give the re...

If the League Cup game is anything to go by, the Cowleys will get us organised. Maybe not the prettiest, maybe masters of the dark arts, but organised, hard to beat and scrapping for everything. Which is what we need right now. If they bring a winning me...

Jesus. We NEVER get the break. 1-0 up, James Collins takes a dive. I can't say anything other than that. There's no contact, I've watched the replay half a dozen times looking and it just doesn't exist. He's come blindside and th...

Gutting for Bury. It should be a wake-up call to English football, but it won't be. My great hope is that we'll meet again. Preferably because Bury have risen from the ashes to make it back to the Football League.

Well. Far and away the better side for 70 minutes. Didn't get that bit of luck (or enough shots on target) while we were on top. Sucker punched. Never looked like getting back in it. Fitness an issue - which begs the question what the hell we've...

Hate to say it, but it's not their job. I agree with the sentiment (especially after the Premier League told each of its clubs to give a £250k golden handshake to Scudamore last season), but if football is to be sustainable they cannot be bail...

Hard to finish below a side that won't even start the season. Though point taken: it's grim. Our performance last night was grim. It's got to the players. Half of them were in tears at the end. 4 wins in 55, and not through lack of effort...

Absolutely. And the buck stops with Siewert. Though the whole club needs to shake its collective head. He was gone on Wednesday then given a reprieve by the chairman because he'd already picked the team for Friday. It's worse than when we could...

Had Lincoln not beaten us last night it would have been a travesty. Only Ryan Schofield's outstanding shot-stopping kept it to 1-0 - the only player to emerge with credit from that shitshow. But the fault of the players is mitigated by the fact it�...

It's going to be a long season. Bottom three here we come. Unless we sack the manager NOW. No goals in open play, sitting back and looking lost when defending a lead, no composure, no control, no confidence, no belief, no heart, no fight. He's h...

Busy week. Shambles of a performance against Derby rightly saw Derby take the points. Mooy gone on loan to Brighton after signing a new contract. And finally the FA have charged us with misconduct over wearing the kit... which has since gone on to raise o...

Hallelujah! Fans back at Bloomfield - good crowd too. I took myself off for an afternoon of non-league today. With Town not playing until Monday, I went to Farsley Celtic v Darlington. Decent crowd there - not announced but looked north of 1,500, the ma...

Not that strange - Bolton's cashflow will be so much bigger than Bury's. Say they get 12,000 every week, compared to 3,000 at Bury. Also to do with the fact that Bury's owner appears to be an obstructive so and so who doesn't have a p...

Doesn't look like it is, but I stand to be corrected. Umbro haven't released it on their twitter or anything, and they've been spamming the hell out of Brentford, so until they say something, I'm assuming spoof. But it has been more t...

Well fuck. As if being sponsored by morally-bankrupt bookmakers wasn't bad enough, we're now the permanent butt of their jokes. Is the kit real? Right now, fuck knows. But I want Sean Jarvis's head on a spike for allowing the club to be a j...

New manager now needed by Blackpool - their old boss has resigned. Slightly odd timing. Incidentally, keep an eye on goings-on at Barnsley. They're quietly building a good young squad and have some money behind them. They seem to have gone under the...

Awful. Only 49.

Suspect they'll be lucky to survive the summer. A club needs to go under completely to make the FL wake up and unfortunately it looks like Bolton might be that club. There's no point in the sustainability rules if they're not actively enfo...

I personally want Jokanovic - I think he's a more attacking option, but he'd fit into the ethos of the club. Whoever it is has their work cut out, though. I suspect there'll be a real sense of doom in the squad and they'll have a big...

Gutted. Absolutely gutted. Obviously David Wagner felt it was the right decision and the club felt it was the right decision, but there's a lump in my throat. How I wish it could have been Wagner pulling off one last miracle (to go with the previous...

Rallying cry from the chairman. The thing is, I can accept going down if we make a real fight of it. Performances and set-up v Newcastle, Southampton and Fulham were just plain wrong. There was nothing there where we got in the opposition's faces, m...

Pundits struggled to see Fabian Delph's challenge as a red card. So they probably can't see them slipping up... Useless stat of the day: we're the first top-flight team to lose 6 games in the month of December since ourselves (1950). Spec...

Congratulations Newcastle. Took their chance when it came, which we didn't. No excuses for that second half performance. Insipid, dreary, heartless, gutless. Stat of the day: four of our players have now produced 273 crosses into the opposition penal...

Best official of the season. Only complaint is that he missed the foul on Pritchard at 0-0 - penalty, 1-0, different game. But I thought live Pritchard slipped, so can't complain much there! Perhaps a little lucky with the offside by the modern abor...

Fucked by the officials again tonight for the first goal. Not a foul, and offside from the free-kick. Can't defend like we did for the second, but life is hard when the opposition are gifted a goal head start. Still, should have won that. Enough cha...

Tried to behave this season, but need to get today's 'performance' by Michael Oliver off my chest. Comfortable, cruising without playing particularly well at 1-0. Innocuous 50-50 between Mounié and their no.8. Inexplicably, a red is...

All a very grim weekend.

At some point we're going to get the luck we deserve. We've hit the woodwork six times. We haven't scored at home in a quite frankly ridiculous 120 attempts. We've had every decision possible go against us. The performances have deserv...

I've been very encouraged today. We certainly didn't deserve to lose to Spurs. For the most part, we were the better side and, again, with a little more luck we could have won the game. Hitting the woodwork yet again was frustrating - we're...

Benitez charged for praising officials and saying he believes in them to do their job. Meanwhile, the man who provoked the storm hasn't been charged for his rant questioning the integrity of opponents, spitting at opponents, diving, dissent, activel...

Berahino and a 40-yard sliced volley over our own keeper. Kill me now.

Going to be honest: I think we're going down. Yesterday was very, very poor. It was golden chance to get three points and we were ponderous in possession and hardly created anything. I suspect we'll get nothing from the next 3 either. The styl...

Yes, I'm sure this is season-defining. What with our no.1 keeper still not fit for the season, our first-choice centre-back being out injured meaning we had to play a new system, with a further three central midfielders unavailable so we ended up wi...

Our technical deficiencies going forward may have limited our quality of football at times, but by heck that defending over the last two games has been incredible. Strangely, we were never really tested by Manchester City but last night it was proper bodi...

A lot depends on today. If Everton win, Southampton face Swansea in midweek and then Manchester City. If we don't win another game, we need this combination: Everton beat Southampton Swansea beat or draw with Southampton Southampton lose to Manches...

That might be that with our last few games. Just to not be bottom is an achievement to be fair, considering the quality in our squad. Not that I'd write us off with our habit of pulling together for one final push - beat Arsenal on the last day and w...

Mystery how we didn't win. Credit to Swansea - sitting ten back and keeping shape and not allowing an inch of space in the danger zone takes discipline and concentration. And when we did manage to get through them, Fabianski was in fine form. Some sa...

Bit of a mugging, that. Bossed them for the entire game, just done by a £75m striker on the break - that's what you pay the money for. Reminded me of Middlesbrough a couple of years back - a full-throttle performance that didn't quite brea...

It'll be 4 in 2 weeks. They play us at the Hawthorns next, and we have a habit of not turning up when we go away.

Danny Williams That performance has been coming for a while. We've lost 5 on the spin before today but not played too badly. Today we wanted it more than Bournemouth and it was an outstanding footballing performance. Beggars belief that the gloriou...
