What's not liking tippy tappy football, got to do with a manager who doesn't know what system best suits the players he has at his disposal???..or who doesn't seem in the slightest bit interested in his job and just shrugs his shoulder and say he doesn't know all the time???

And me, he is the one who I believe would really throw himself into the job and be pleased to be here and give it his all.

Any number of people. McDermott, Hughton, Clarke....there's three straight away who would get us organised and playing to our strengths.

What's the point in waiting till Saturday??? Even if we were to win there, it's still only delaying the obvious. Sammi Hyypia is not the man to take this club forward and that has nothing to do with losing tonight. Get rid tonight, as every day counts.

Only on the pitch....Not where it matters, like the pies and the beer prices. Not to mention the ticket prices. They are all premier league quality.

Because we had a team who all pulled together for the common cause and never knew when they were beaten.

Game over

Has Gardener produced anything since he has been with us??? His first half performance against Boro was up there with the worst I have ever seen from a supposed prem midfielder.

So you think the defence has been working this season do you???..Personally I think we have looked like conceding almost every time the opposition attacks. Oh well it's all about opinions I suppose.

Ok, I can counter that with....Why? What did Hughes ever do to get dropped in the first place?...or El Abd last season for the matter...Greer seems to play no matter what and I'm not saying he hasn't had a bad season, but on Saturday's form maybe Hughes deserves his chance on Saturday. Change is...

So far so good. What have we learnt so far??? Holla and Ince can play together and will be stronger from a defencive point of view and allow Paddy to play(who it would seem can also defend as well). Hughes is as steady as a rock and maybe should take the undroppable Greer's place and Walton has...

I wouldn't fling crosses in or pump long balls to a lone midget up front that for sure and I wouldn't ask my full backs to pretend the are wingers either, or play wingers in the middle and leave my most creative player on the bench till the last 5 minutes every week.

I agree with you, amazing as it may seem. My point is Walton should have been blooded against Burton or Swindon, then I wouldn't be so concerned....Look, the lad might play a blinder and be a hero, let's all hope so. But he could also easily let in 6, as could Casper but then Casper is an old...

Bet he is alright for Saturday.

So if you were in Walton's shoes, you wouldn't feel any pressure on yourself to go out and perform???

Not much different to Stockdale for the first dozen games then??? Although hopefully he has turned the corner now. That might explain why he isn't playing tonight, the man had a blinder on Saturday and has played in the league cup already this season, so drop him for the big one,,,,,mmmmm nice...

If we get hammered tonight, forget waiting for the international break Hyypia needs to go straight away. Going out the cup doesn't really matter a toss. The manner of the defeat could be a disaster for our young prospect in goal. Most managers break a new keeper in at home in a easy cup tie...

That's one way to blood a young keeper I suppose. In front of 4,000 of your own fans, away at a massive club. Could be the making of the lad, on the other hand could set him back years...Surely Ankergren would have been a more suitable deputy under the circumstances, in front of a make shift...
