FWIW we will stay up as long as, Palace aside, we do the damage against the crucial sides at home still. But another couple of transfer windows like the ones we've seen in the last two years and next season will be our last in this division, unquestionably.

Fully agree. Dyche can only work with what he has got. The lineup today was probably the best team he could field. I can't really think of any thing major that he could have done as an alternative.

Our recruitment was poor, we recognised that and responded by increasing our investment in that area and we brought in Rigg to mastermind a strategy for improvement. Not surprisingly, our recruitment has got even worse and we are starting to pay a heavy price for it.

Hiring a bloke with a consistent record of poor ( and in some cases catastrophic ) performance was only going to yield one result. We don't need someone who can talk a good job ( although he was completely silent about the business we did or more correctly failed to do in the last window ) we need someone who can DO a good job.

Our first order of business should be to look for a new Technical Director. It doesn't matter what area of business is under consideration if you pay more money for poorer perfromance then something has to change and quickly.

The lineup today was totally wrong

Should have been 5 at the back or at least 5 in midfield. Also starting McNeil wide right baffling

The manager has to take full responsibility for this performance

Croydon Claret · Post by **Croydon Claret** » Sat Dec 07, 2019 4:27 pm

Second half is an improvement on the first. That's a positive right?

ElectroClaret · Post by **ElectroClaret** » Sat Dec 07, 2019 4:29 pm

Brady off for Lennon.

couldn't have been any worse
Spurs have dropped off about 70%

I'm all for thinking positive (I'd already mentioned McNeil being very good first half) but when you have a player that can't even beat the first man on a free kick from the half way line there are no positives
