One realises that these are the kind of signings that we should have made in the summer - a striker with EPL experience to play up front with Campbell, a skillful and pacey winger and a left back with pace and good EPL experience.
Absolutely bizarre that we spent 8.5 million on Cornelius "one for the future" while ignoring very real deficiencies with our team that we all seen last summer.
Anyway, given we are bottom of the heap I think that all three are decent signings - certainly the best we could do given our position. One only regrets that our previous manager didn't have the foresight to bring such players in last summer. Perhaps if he had he would still be here and we would be much further up the table.

Malky was out of his depth and too arrogant to see that the the players he had wernt good enough

Wez, maybe Malky was giving the players who got us to the PL a chance to prove themselves?
Showing loyalty and not breaking up the great team spirit they had.
It seemed to be all going well until Tan and Lim interfered just before the Newcastle game, and it has gone downhill since then.

People that use the word 'one' as if it transforms them into someone off Downton Abbey do my fackin head in.
Most annoying use of any word going.

One believes that by newcastle the element of suprise was gone and to be honest we had been played off the park by both everton and spurs in previous home games.
four succesive away games without scoring told you everything you needed to know where we were going under malky
blaming tan is a cop out we had started to park the bus and hoped to get something off a set piece to pinch games.
unfortunately we were running out of steam after 75 minutes and constantly conceding goals which were losing us games.
but thats only one's opinion of course

It's a shame Ole wasn't here at the start of the season, but you cannot fire the manager who gets you promoted there would of definatly been riots then. Malky was no doubt out of his depth at this level, he did not realise the type of player it takes to survive at this level and could not spot a bargain, unlike Ole who has signed some gems for bargain prices. Even if we do go down it looks like we'll have some quality youngsters to help get us back up, I doubt ole put them on big wages either unlike malky who would of thrown the coin at them.
