We have 2 of our first 11 and 2 subs out tomorrow. That is normal in football and par for the course.
It's an excuse that no side with a winning culture would dream of using

Brands defo no.
Benitez, not sure, but who are you going to get in who would spend the 'no money' we have well?
Whoever comes in will have to work with these same players. We're not going to attract a great manager because we have no money to give him.
Is Rondon playing for free?

For sure. I'm not convinced we can beat anybody at the moment.

And when was the last time we had a winning culture, 1995?
I'm not sure what world you guys are living on. We have next to no money and haven't won anything for ages.
If Benitez goes we will have to task a massive risk, most likely on a relatively unknown manager or a very experienced manager who justs want to top up his pension fund.
Seeing him representing us in a derby is completely humiliating.

Welcome to Barcelonaton FC
Most of our entire squads have done that repeatedly in this fixture
A long time ago.
But it's not going to get better when people think it's a valid excuse. You are just enabling the losing mentality by saying results don't matter because we had players out. The idea we can only judge a manager when they have a fully fit squad is laughable. Lots of managers don't get 1 game a season without a player unavailable.
What's that got to with it? He's only been here 13 games and hasn't played all of them.
He may become useful when used sparingly. Jury is out on him.
You said no money was wasted. I disagree.
How is the jury out on Rondon? He is nowhere near good enough

They finished 2 points above us but we have since replaced all our players with farmers and plumbers who have never played football apparently. (I may be exaggerating slightly but apparently our mid table capable squad is now league 1 standard according to some).

No, I am just realistic, we have no money.
Results do matter but should be put in context. I actually agree atm that Benitiez should be under pressure because of some of the choices he's making but I've yet to see a realistic call for who we'd get in to replace him who would be a safer bet.

I'm biased because I want to use the entire data set available? OK mate.
I think the Jury came back in him a while ago tbh.
Even the blind juror voted to send him down.

Who has said we can only judge him when he has a fully fit squad?
I don't recall anyone saying that. Maybe judge him when he only has 1 or 2 injuries might be closer to it.
