I agree, Trousers. When you have that number of shots and score once, that's not unlucky, it's crap finishing. And when you're bottom of the table and 7 points off safety, you're not unlucky, you're crap. Great opportunity today to turn this last week's shambles into a positive finish, though why I would think that would have been remotely possible, I can't answer. I fully agree with the decision to sack Pulis but appointing another failing manager in Pardew was a clear mistake. I don't see the point of sacking him now, just to replace him with another dud. We're going to be relegated, so get rid in the close season and use the last few weeks to line up a young, ambitious manager who does not have a track record of failure and sees the need to carry out a root and branch review of the squad.
