Like all rich people Acun is full of sh*t. He's turned the club into a complete circus with himself as head clown. I suspect he'll find his reception at home games will be rather colder from now on.

Much will depend on whether he gets the players or types of players he actually wants. And largely before pre-season so we're not playing catch up again.

All part of the broader attempt to break the 3pm Saturday blackout, which should be binned now anyway.

I guess the learning from this is 'never trust knaves, fools and football club owners.' Though you could argue the latter bear a startling resemblance to the first two in varying degrees.

Are we Watford in disguise?

Acun's being consistently Acun given the dire football especially after the final international break. But a proper head of recruitment is key. Added to this the chat is we're going to sell arguably our 2 best midfielders(low bar) so WTAF is going on?

It comes to something when refs are giving things players didn't even appeal for.

Not as good as Tuesday but still pretty good.

Absolutely. Thank fuck that season is done and out of the way. Let us never speak of it again. Now for the hard part. Working out how to replace about half of that lot and with what.

Think you've been very gentle with Phelan in this but a great piece about what I still feel is the most frustrating of all the top flight seasons in the sense that the relegation was so avoidable.

Bad news. They muck about with kick off times loads in L1 as well.

There's a quote from someone (Frida Kahlo?) about drinking to drown sorrows but the b*startds learning to swim....

Yes he nowhere near top of the league but I'd still prefer an owner who's not a complete egomaniac who makes terrible decisions. About as likely as world peace I guess.

Acun out

Generally if you wave your feet in the air near someone's head you shouldn't be too surprised to get penalised.

Mixed Easter metaphors but I get the sentiment.

Probably linked to workload, too. He's played more games in a short period than he has for a long time. Since before his injury in fact.

Always felt there was at least one more dogtod performance likely from this group. Hopefully there won't be any more. At least there are no more International breaks as we're always awful after them.

Oddly enough going down to 10 and battling for a point at Brizzle may prove to be the turning point for that team. Just pray Gelhardt stays fit.

I was a lot more pessimistic after that limp loss at Cardiff but the last 4 games have been magnificent and we don't look like a relegation candidate. Even in the weakest of those we got the win against Oxford. I get the problem has been sustaining this but we look like we're improving.

Cardiff's inability to beat anyone at home apart from us may prove costly for them. I suspect 3 more wins and a couple of draws may be enough to save us.

I'd been thinking about the similarities, too. This time the initial managerial change was a self-inflicted wound, though. I've not forgiven the owner for this.

Sadly he's more Billy Blunt than Deano.

The best we can hope for is to survive this season and hopefully press the reset button with a more stable squad next. I hope our trigger happy owner learns from this experience but doubt he will.

It's clearly a Hull thing this. I remember all these and have similar feelings about them. We don't do forgive and forget.

With the benefit of hindsight if we're going to play tight and try to nick a goal we'd be better starting Amrabat than Kamara. He phoned it in defensively last night.
