Torp would be great at doing one of those shots from the halfway line to catch out goalies who are coming out beyond the penalty box that everyone, including us, are doing nowadays. I'm surprised none else has caught on to that... https://youtube.com/shorts/QPvxitIHNlk?si=c5wLF4iglklFUaVU

He'll probably stick to 442. Wolfie is injured I think. Knowing Lampard, he'll probably play Grimes there

Why not play the summer signings? The lineup is a championship line up imho. No gameplan. Out formation with 1 striker means we need a good striker. That signing from Forrest is useless. I thought we'd turn the corner with back to back wins but the dread crept in when we lost…

Agree Sakamoto was MOTM. Why he's not starting every week only FF knows. Rudoni gave the ball away a lot but that's because he had the ball in the first place. Grimes again showed he's not good enough for this level. Cherif looked good but got absolutely zero service. Why is Awoniyi, who has all the touch and pace of a wardrobe, coming on over Simms? Home defeats to Hull & Fulham is relegation form. More of the same against Sunderland and Deadly Doug will surely be sharpening the axe.

FF after the game: “This is the Premier League. They’re trying to stop you and if you want more it’s not always there. We’ve got to keep pushing on.” Eh?

I see Gboho and Torp sat on the bench today but didn’t get a look in. No sign of Tuna. What’s going on? There’ll be more and more empty seats if things don’t change.

I think he's got an STD, hence the movement of a crab.

I thought we'd turn the corner with back to back wins but the dread crept in when we lost to Spurs. Should have got a point. Look at them now, they're full of confidence and beat Chelsea at Stamford Bridge. Doug's made a blunder with his recruitment. Rushworth, we've spent over the odds. Could have got a slightly older keeper from abroad. We don't look like a premier league team. Hull are having a go, Ipswich look pretty decent. Other than Man Citeh, Arsenal and Brighton, the rest of the league is pretty ****. Chelsea and Man Yoo are basket cases and beatable. Liverpool look off it. There are teams we could beat even with our squad if Lamps gives the new guys a chance. The team that got us promoted ain't good enough. A few of them are. Lamps plays his mates. It's like watching Strachan all over again playing his love child Telfer. Grimes is the new Telfer. Actually that's not fair on Telfer.

I really had to force myself to go to the game this afternoon. Even Uncle Phil threw a sickie, so Mrs Mo was on taxi duty. We started off ok but there wasn't any urgency. Bott terms looked like they were playing for a draw. Milan van Ewijk, Grimes, Mason Clark rubbish. We look a Championship outfit. Rusoni had an off day. As time ticked away, I was getting 1-0 Hull vibes and low and behold Fulham scored.

Spit - think Ive solved the signed out cant sign back in problem. I just locked myself out!

Well that was sh*t

Grimes needs to be replaced. We need an on pitch leader not a belly itcher

That was bloody awful. FF won’t be getting a job at a “BIG” club any time soon. He’s still got a lot of learning to do.

Does Grimes know you're actually allowed to pass the ball forward? F**k me.

I'm a big BTA fan, especially as a sub. Frank clearly doesn't rate Simmaldinho so think we can forget him starting any time soon. Cherif needs to give it the full gun today

Welcome back Mo! When you say Torp loses the ball are you saying his pass completion is too low or is he getting stripped of the ball? Mind you, neither Torp nor Hamer has had a chance to play regularly. Unlike Grimes who seems to give the ball away because he’s too slow. By the time he’s controlled the ball and looked up, it’s already half time.

@Timmaayy wrote: Well Lamps and Grimes clearly have a GFS/Telfer thing going on so even though he's out of his depth at this level you know he'll probably start. But I've been saying ever since he joined us that Torp is Prem quality and can't believe he's not starting games.

F*** off

I actually love the App. It's ace. Here's a pick with me a Cov legend Jordan Shipley. He did moan that he was the only former player celebrating with the fans not like former captain Liam Kelly.

****ing hell, you can't swear on here. It's like TiuTube having a RATM video for Killing in the name and they censor the last but where they sing **** you I won't do as you told me. Mother ****er. I tell you what you won't get any celebrities like Samuel L Jackson posting on here.
