I didn''t agree with your opinions about the refund but replied anyway. There was nothing offensive about your op. How silly.

Morning Wiz. What happened to your original post?

Whilst I don''t discount the possibility of garnering a point or two in our last four games we have known what is required since the fixtures came out. If we don''t gain three points on Saturday and at least one against Fulham we have failed in our objectives this season.

And for the second time this season I am going to retire to the garden.

That was coming...

so Wes can''t tackle eh?

Miserable co-commentator. w@nker.

Come on fellas, a ball has not been kicked yet! CH would have copped some stick had he changed a winning team imo.

We have not been successful playing defensively away from home so we may as well pick the same team as last week.

I hope that you are wrong. I like his movement and football intelligence. Next season will tell us whether we have bought a duff or not imo.

I really want to see CH be the long term stability option that settled clubs need. The game on Saturday was the polar opposite to the previous week. That is my concern. Did CH pick such an attacking team because he sees this as the way forward and will build towards attaining that level of performance every week? Or did he feel desperate for a win at the tail end of a poor season due to the pending tough games against the bigger sides? If it''s the latter, as I fear, we may have to wait until the final third of the season to see any attacking potential realised.That would not be good enough for a third season.

Has he asked them to sit back?

Bloody hell. That was good.

All good points OP but I will struggle to agree if its a draw at full time. We need the win.

Sunderland would look to attack through those two if they both play. I think he will go with Tetty, Johnson and either Howson, Hoolahan or Jonas.

Olsson Then any from Tetty,Bradders Snoddy or Ruddy.

I agree that you get a much better picture when you watch it live as regards the sheer effort and commitment off the ball when the camera is otherwise engaged. I really don''t think that any of our squad can assume premier league football next season without Norwich. The less "glamorous" players have been our best performers thus far whilst the "quality" players have underperformed. Let''s see everyone playing to their max. Tactics and formation can,of course, make good players look poor.

The last four games are undoubtedly tricky although Manu have lost their lustre which puts them on a par with our other away games imo. You have to hope that we can gain points at home whomever comes to CR. We have to separate the CH issue from our run in if that is possible. As long as the players believe in our cause then we have a chance. If they don''t then that is another issue.

inflexible and other spelling errors...

To those who peddle the constant loyalty card of "CH whatever the situation" I would suggest that you look at how well he is doing at constructing HIS team and stye of football. Not good. To those who want" change at any cost " I would suggest that you balance who is available with who will be attacted by the the proposition of joining a struggling premiership/strong championship club. IMO the middle ground is that CH has not grown into the role and that there are risks in replacing him with a similar grade of manager. This makes a mockery of dismissing Lennon etc but we have to ask who is the manager who will actually improve us? For me it would be someone less married to an inflexable shape and structure.

You could navigate rather easily just by using the polarised posters on this thread.

Thorpe. Are you Mortys'' alter ego??

"Graham Paddon''s Beard"Normailty is restored. That was pathetic. Boll0x to everything lol
