I think that if Di Matteo had been a universally popular appointment, more fans would be patient with him. But - and I stand to be corrected - a lot of people were ambivalent with Xia's choice because there were more obvious options this summer.
Well its not going to drift on and on with excuse after excuse and jam tomorrow constantly, were already miles off the pace haven't put together a proper 90 mins and hve only beats Rotherham, he wont let the shit continue week after week or buy the bull excuses, he'll have him replaced quickly and so he should this start Is pathetic, 2 more games and if they still look as solid as a teabag he'll be off. Utter joke tonight 4-2-4 fucking what planet is he on?

I'm not saying I'd have preferred them necessarily, but I was certainly surprised when Di Matteo's name popped up.
