He fucking bottled it. We really have had a bunch of shit, inept and cowardly managers. Stunning

He's doing it for us...he's trying to get the relegation done as fast as possible so we don't have suffer any more. It's a shame Norwich didn't read the script.

Interviewed on Final Score he said "We go again..."

Groundhog day?

This is only a nightmare/medically induced coma/LSD experiment, isn't it?

Lambert, Sherwood, Kmac, Garde, Black...Even if some of them started with some confidence and had us playing on the front foot, their fear of getting thrashed and humiliated has eventually made them all play far too cautiously for us to stand any chance of winning games. Hats off to Black for completing his cycle so quickly.

He obviously read the previous managers notes on how to lose matches and piss people off.

Quickest pay off on record!

What a woeful team selection, Grealish getting 8 minutes at the end?!

You sometimes wonder about all these coaches with a million FA coaching badges and qualifications and what they actually get taught when you see nonsense teams like today, I think every fan on the Holte End would've picked a better team today.

Proved just as clueless as his predecessors.  I'm sure they would take great delight in telling us that we know nothing because we've never played the game, but how on earth can anyone have all week to prepare a team and come to the conclusion that playing Richardson would be a good idea?

The only joy we were getting first half was getting in behind them and using pace. Sinclair and Ayew were causing them problems, should have brought on Adama for the second half and just run at them.
