That's why we're staying down... etc Now Christmas Day is out of the way and I've had chance to put Saturday in context, I'm looking forward to reading the Bruce thread.

No wins in three... Playing garbage... generally having played largely garbage now for over 12 months. I'd say people have a real right to get antsy again about now. This is shaping up into the run of form we were kind of expecting would happen at some point, but that we can't really afford given where the Club expects us to be. And of course, where us fans expect us to be. But sure, if you want positivity - United are in crappy form too. They are there for the taking. We have to TAKE them...

What do you think will happen if we don't? What do you think it will mean? Answer those, and you've answered your own question.

Must win.

A proper dispiriting afternoon - credit to those that attended the stadium for that latest edition of naff. It happens far too often, regardless of players being fit/injured or not. It's not good enough, and we are not good enough.

Fiddlesticks

This kind of display happens far too often, regardless of whether the squad is fit or not.

2-0 Rooster Russell... Game over man...

To be fair to him, I really don't think he is properly match fit. Bruce is seeing something we aren't though.

I think we need a Doctor Tone tweet to take our mind of all this 'hysteria.'

Fat Spanish Waiter struggling on the Toon... QPR

There is literally nothing to type about...

Come on Jack - it's your turn for a worldy from nowhere. SHOOOOOOOOOOT.

Just one of those days folks...

Whelan off... sacked right off.

Hoges!! Coming on...

Hello?

Derby rises... with Villa to meet it... Ooops, sorry, should be in the Star Wars thread. Come on Villa... come the **** on.

A forgettable game for Villa fans. That team really should be doing better AT HOME against a team who were 17th in the league when they stepped on the pitch at 1455 hours (ish). Yeah, Cardiff struggled against them, and Wolves only nonced 1 goal against them. They were 17th. I've seen 'oh don't worry, it was just a bad day at the office.' Problem is, we hardly ever play well, so a failed firework like Millwall at home just brings our deficiencies into sharper focus. Absolutely nothing positive about the Millwall game other than Johnstone. Saved our blushes at least twice. West Midlands Police (assume it was you) - inconvencience AWAY fans please when there's a potential flashpoint you think might occur. Not us HOME fans. The club wants us to come by train - and for me, that would be Witton. That long walking diversion was totally un-neccessary. If they need putting in a protective cage to stop them doing damage to us, our property and to our women, cage the ****. Still, with your snouts in the trough, picking up your chuckly overtime pay packets, I can understand your smug grins.

7 time winners Aston Vanilla, now plying their trade in the Championship away to Fleetwood Town or Hereford.

Ohhhhh heck... who cares? Promotion can't be achieved until some time in 2018 at the earliest. Come on... ten days until Episode 8... get your priorities right people... 14th December - my birthday... Episode 8 (IMAX 3D), Five Guys Burger (peanut butter milkshake ftw) and then Episode 8 again with 3 scoops of Baskin Robbins. Promotion can wait. But to keep the warning points at bay... 2nd is all to play for. Let's roll Millwall right over...

With Bristol continuing surge, and Cardiff continuing to surge, and Wolves continuing to surge etc... we need to keep surging ourselves. Make the most of the slightly stuttering and blunted Blades' misfortunes... Clench the buttocks to keep Derby at bay... And put Millwall to the sword. Nasty little club. Right up there with Chelsea for being words removed, with words removed as supporters. Nasty to the core. Rocket polishing words removed to the power of sixteen. CTFO Villa... score them to death.

Much of this has already been said, but I'll post anyway to boost my post count... Terrible first half from us - that Leeds goal was obviously coming. The manner in which it was conceded was disappointing. The only good thing about the first half was the giant Aero bar my mother had bought me. These 'terrible' halves are so frequent, I just can't fathom any more if it is the manager, or if our players are just not quite good enough or 'at it.' It happens far too often to be put down to 'one of those bad days in the office.' In some cases, we're unbeaten in a bundled number of games despite ourselves. Second half was less terrible. And amazingly we scored an equaliser. Kind of felt to me like Leeds had turned their taps off. But 1-1 it was. Hurrah. Lansbury - Equaliser He Wrote. MOTM - Chester Drawers Manager - Average Ref - I put poor, because the standard down here is poo. He did well, I guess, not to send Hutton off. He was skating on the thin ice of life. A dalliance with the devil. Jansson (forget how to spell his name and can't be arsed to Google) - face you want to smash with a cricket bat.

Fixed for you

I had a statistic from somewhere a few years ago that identified that 96% of advertisements portray the 'humiliation' in some way of the male gender, often depicting them as 'useless,' 'inferior to' or 'subordinate to' a female. Make of that what you will. And for the record, I am very broad minded, not a lot shocks me at all to be honest. I am quite emotionally dead inside. That said, I can assure you that voyeurism is a sexual offence in the UK - especially if you are male. So why should Paco Rabanne get off scot free with it in their advert? Sends out all the wrong messages. I ain't burning my bra or anything. They'll probably do sod all. But if the boot was on the other foot, there really would be hell to pay. Especially in the current climate where it's chic to call sexual misconduct for even the slightest glance the wrong way at somebody. EDIT - and no, I don't condone sexual harassment. My problem is the risk of people jumping on the bandwagon and claiming harassment/misconduct for the slightest thing that may actually not be sexual misconduct.
