100% of teams in world football would take McKenna over Dyche if offered.

but again my opinion TFG won’t

 

[mikel_88]

Honestly dont kno what the right answer is apart from dyche needs to go now whatever is said about this run even tho against the top teams. Has put himself in this position by not picking up the points and has put us right in the mix. Is going to be a key month for us

We're pretty much banking on Leicester, Ipswich, and Southampton being absolutely terrible and not really winning any games until January. If we can get to 19 games played and not be in the bottom three, I'll be more confident. At the moment, it looks very nervy indeed.

 

[MACCA75]

This Man Utd team are crap. No doubt we will poo ourselves and hope for a draw, just like every visit to a ‘top 6’ side for the past 30 years.

Has been my opinion since the window closed.

Get to January, hopefully afloat and under new owners and spend.

Just had no confidence in this squad under a manager who was never getting beyond the season.

There's only two games there this team in its current form has any prayer in. We're on for five hammerings. Even if we narrowly lose, it means zero points. Wolves at home is a must-win. As will the Forest game be.

Forest are in form, and wolves are coming into form... City will need a win... Everton roll in to town... you know how it goes

 

[The Binman]

We have lost 1 game in 8. I honestly think all apart from Arsenal away we can get something from, as long as we keep Brainthwaite fit.

We've been extremely lucky, and we also lost to chuffing southampton in that time, a joke!! We can't even score... last night was absymal... really bad...

 

[nsno-chris]

I don't remember ever saying that.

I seem to remember saying he was good, and pre all his injuries he was. One of them.

Maybe the people who told me we would be getting relegated the last 3 seasons should give up? Just an idea eh?

You said this mate

 

[The Binman]

that relegates us.

Not quite... we will do what everton do, and be unlucky... we may scrape enough, but its gonna be tough mate,....

 

[Delargeinho]

Rewarded for a brave performance, well done.

The current top 8 + Man United, Bmouth and Wolves, won't be fun for us in the next 11 games.

 

[ToffeeTim]

Ipswich deserved that

United aren't good either. No excuse not to be at least competitive next week

We'll capitulate 3-0 in a celebratory atmosphere as they welcome their new messiah.

We've read that book many times before.

Goals from Martial (2)* and Fernandes.

* I know, I know...

Yeah we’ll go there and treat them as if they’re Pep’s Barca, and will have lads on here telling us we can’t expect to compete with them because they’ve spent loads. Ipswich, who still have League 1 players in their team, had them on the ropes and should’ve beat them.
