Why is he smiling at the end of the game today? How many times is that now this season that we've been doing well at half-time and just thrown it away in the second half? Can he not inspire players at all? Brings on Schlupp again when we need a goal so he can move Zaha (no goal in 14) up front? Absolutely clueless.

Some people really do spout bollocks, don't they? Absolute tosh. You do know why Speroni was picked, don't you?

Without the shock win at the Etihad we would be only out of the bottom 3 on goal difference. Take away the unexpected 3 points we got verus Wolves and we would be right in the sh*t.

At some point in time you have to say the table doesn't lie.

We need to see improvements against the teams in and around us, this is where we should be edging towards safety.

I believe RH can deliver those results but some of the decisions today are hard to fathom. Once again Schlupp is our impact sub? Its surely an inside joke?

Ayew did well for the Tomkins goal but surely we must give a start to Wickham in the next game, if not Benteke? Our 3rd goal shows what we can do with an actual target man.

The goals we shipped today were 2 very unlucky ones, a howler from Speroni, and 1 well taken goal.

Meanwhile we scored 3 away at Anfield.........and lost.

Lets all just pray we are not looking back on this from the championship all misty eyed come next season when we go down by 1 point.

but we did get 3 points at citeh, and at wolves.

if history tells you anything its that at the end of the season things tend to even themselves out in the PL.

also, if you followed us for the whole season, or seasons you would see we always play better against the teams that dont play the same counter game we do, thats why the big boys never, ever turn us over.

play a team we sticks men behind the ball and we always struggle...its not even a suprise anymore, i had more expectations pre-match today than i did against watford or cardiff recently.

why dont people understand this?
