I'll probably get roasted for this but f*ck it. I'm a pretty large guy too. Maybe we can call him out for being a **** without having to resort to the weight jibes. Makes me wonder what people would say to me were we ever to meet.

I also read that, but it also seemed to be the case that our lot went looking for it. No time for anyone involved in that nonsense on either side. Constantly dragging the rest of normal football fans through the mud.

You know what, you could be right there. That's my bad.

A word beginning with R that I try not to use myself. I agree with the sentiment mind.

If people don't wish to be perceived as a racist, they should probably stop saying racist things. As we can't read minds we really have nothing more to go on than what they say. This was a flat out racist statement.

He really does seem like a fundamentally stupid man that has accidentally tripped up and found success doesn't he?

We probably wouldn't stay up, it gets harder every year and even spending everything we possibly could wouldn't get it done. Have to try though, what's the alternative?

Red or not, this has been embarrassing. It is not normal for a team of supposed professionals to immediately crumble under the first sign of adversity. They're too happy making excuses. They've been at it all year since they started pushing the absolute lie that the form in Autumn was down to injuries.

Absolute must win, this.

Great time for us, great time for him, but that's gone, it's in the past. Very, very few managers I'd have back. And this is from someone that wouldn't mind at all if DW left tomorrow.

I think I speak for all when I say no apologies necessary. Can't account for any of that. Picking 6 is way, way harder than it seems.

Wahey! I have to admit I'd completely forgotten about picking that one and was about to come on here cursing our luck. Excellent suggestion from a couple of you 👍

Hi everyone, thanks for your suggestions, hopefully there's some winners amongst these. £1 BTTS in both halves £1 3-1 City, Sargent first scorer £1 Sargent with Header, Sainz from outside the box (love this) £1 Sainz first scorer £2 Norwich win, BTTS, Over 3 goals, Sara anytime £2 HT draw, FT City win £2 Norwich to win from behind

I think for my pick this week I'll go with a Norwich win. Evens seems quite large given our home form and given Sunderland have their best player out. I know along come Norwich exists but we don't really believe in that do we? Would somebody be so kind as to remind me how much I have to stake on the City game because I'm having a complete mind blank!

I think he had a really good cameo today. Certainly more than just popping up in the right place, he did an awful lot of work for his goal.

Oh I sort of love it too, in a so bad it's good kind of way.

I just think him looking properly miserable in the photoshoot for the ugly third kit that season was and will always be hilarious.

I was part of the booing on Tuesday. Frustration got the better of me and I perceived we were parking the bus/trying to hang on. I did feel really stupid afterwards and then couldn't really argue with what DW said after the game either. Tried to go to the game today with a positive mindset and to get behind them and to be fair, I think a majority seemed to do the same. Crowd was excellent. So to be honest he probably does deserve an apology and I think the atmosphere today was a direct result of his comments. Fantastic performance on the pitch helped too.

@nutty nigel I'll be fine for City match picks March 2nd. Sorry ive gone a bit radio silent on these, i'll try and get back to it.

I thought he was alright to be honest, although obviously we will miss Rowe. If Rowe remains out I'd still start him over other wingers on the books.

Don't think I'm renewing, though to be fair it's more cutting back on costs than it is the performances on the pitch, though the team are making the decision a lot easier to swallow it must be said.

Not a bad move for him or us really. I like the kid but it's not really working. I don't think he's ever going to be the man, as such. Replacement doesn't really matter until the Summer, if we get left short, we get left short. We're not getting relegated and we're not getting promoted so there's nothing to be short for really. Season is essentially over.

Good move for him. Get some minutes under his belt. Not ready for Championship yet..

I think people forget how young he was when he first joined. He's only 23 now. I don't think he was ready for the PL but he was also a very young man finding his feet in a new country playing out of position. He's also filled out a lot in a couple of years and that physicality is a big part of his game. I think it's entirely possible he could be a consistent Premier League in the future, with us or someone else.

I have absolutely no interest in spending money on players while this manager has a say in how it's spent to be honest.
