And what are our pension liabilities, as their employer?

Red and Blue Army!

Don't think we needed RLC as pretty blessed in midfield and Probably not using bats as much as he seems to prefer Ayew at moment, and there too similar to play together in my opinion.

Not so sure we are blessed in midfield, more like we have a few very similar players. I disagree about RLC. He brought a different dimension to our play in his loan spell. Our best spell of football under Roy in my opinion during his stay.

Perhaps talk of Europe will start to emerge again!!!!

A win against WBA and the acrimony and ordure against Hodgson will subside to a degree.
A loss on the back of an abject performance and HOL will be boiling with enmity as hot as a deep-fat fryer with Hodgson the target of unrelenting invective.
The alarm bells will certainly start to ring given some of our fixtures to follow.

And that’s the issue, nobody expects big wins against the top 6 or 4-0 against our rival mid/lower table opponents week in week out, but when you lose 2 in a row against teams we should and need to take points off without offering a goal, you would expect Roy to look at the system and the team selection.

But he doesn’t we trot out the same old garbage way to play week in week out, hoping the opposition is either having an off day or just as bad as us.

I fully expect us to lose against WBA , no goals for Tekkers or Bats and zero creativity from our midfielders as they are drilled so much into a defensive role they have no idea what to do in the final third.

We’re treading water and eventually one season we will drown.

No, you're right, I didn't. I was going on what someone told me. Sounds as if he didn't see it either!
