Hopefully to position it somewhere nearer the directors box!


wfc_2uk still hasn't reported in, as he's stand in for the Fat Controller today. Hope he wasn't arrested!

Mark Wright has come on for Westwood. Who's going to play at centre back?
Leary has been booked again so it can't be long before he's due a suspension.

You can't be arrested for making poor "Blue Peter-esq" banners can you?

The players have stopped playing for him - its painfully obvious that what we have suspected for months is coming to fruition.

He's had so many chances to go with dignity, but now, I'm afraid, the unsightly axe awaits him.

Would that be Tilt the erstwhile 7th choice keeper?

Ozzy on as well, so we're obviously going out all guns blazing.

Still good to see that we've had no goals attempts, while they have had 9.

Because Merson inexplicably picked him as reserve keeper and Oakes got injured during the execution of their first goal.

Oakes was injured in a challenge which led to their first goal.

Mind you Zippyzip , it is hard to see things around you when your head has been in the sand for so long! :wink:

We really are laughing stock, they are just over-running. Walsall have nothing to offer. Do you think the players want Merson Out?

Why should they be any different to the rest of us?

Who the Firk is singing "one Paul Merson" I hope it's the Brentford fans taking the proverbial.

Not apparently due to the earlier injury. Ucow spoke to linesman after half-time, who said that Oakes has toe injury, maybe broken, due to "kicking something at half-time".

Merson perhaps ?

MrMerson has lost the players respect, similar to souness, the players do not want to play for him disagree with his ethics and general management of the club

He must be removed now !!
