Why would Rob Edwards leave 'Boro where he's doing ok with a board prepared to back him and who don't want him to go? Whereas at Wolves, he'll inherit a weak squad devoid of confidence and looking incapable of surviving in this league, but worst of all, owners who refuse to back the club and a Chairman who will sell off his best players every Summer then sack him before the following Xmas.

Sadly, I just can't see this turning out any differently but I'll leave the usual caviat that I hope that's not the case, but I just can't see it. Does anybody seriously think that if us fans are all positive about our prospects then magically we'll win games?

Shi and Fosun are culpable for our current situation no if's, no but's and frankly irrespective of whether Rob Edwards once played for us or lives in Wolverhampton he'll just be another victim of the clueless like the 5 that's gone before him. What was needed was a manager who's reputation alone would make the players and frankly the Club, buck up their ideas. Having said all that, I'm not sure if that would have ended well either, what a mess.

Unfortunately I think you are correct Long, not impressed at all by last nights performance. Think we need a new manager who is a magician to save us this season.

Thought we would have a go at Chelsea, JSL needs time out of the team and play Tolu, Hwang, don’t get me started on him, useless majority of the time and Bellegarde goes missing. May as well have played with 8, what happened to giving others a go, surely with confidence lost, you play others, mind you as we sold all other midfielders and didn’t replace them this is difficult.
Think of the players we have let go or sold, Neves, Neto, Cunha, RAN, Adama, all capable of producing some excitement, none of the current squad are. None of them can create a goal scoring opportunity with a great pass or dribble. Between Jeff and VP’s so called recruitment our team now has no creativity and unfortunately less confidence. Rob would be more sensible to stay where he is then move to this rubbish, terrible to say but true.
Just abysmal.

No manager of repute would touch us with a barge pole LMW. Not with this lot in charge. Not sure what Shi has told Rob Edwards to lure him to this shambles, but as someone has already pointed out he has and will be supported at Boro. He won't be here. He'll just watch as we all do as remaining assets are sold J Gomes, Andre, Kreji and we're left with the dross who we can't move on. Those that are getting a fat pay cheque for strolling around the pitch contributing nothing.

Hwang, Bellegarde, JSL. I'm struggling to believe that these are actually PL footballers as they seem incapable of either trapping a ball, or controlling one. There's not a chance in hell we could've scored yesterday as neither of our so called strikers could get hold of the ball. It's just so frustrating that it's difficult to put into words just how poor this team and the senior management are. Good luck Rob Edwards you'll need it!
