Rhino's Skin

hope you can drag your trolling fingers off the keyboard to show some support when we are in trouble...oooppps ..hold on. Will you still be posting if we are in the championshp?

and hopefully...no Bosnian Blue. byeeee

makes his opinions totally invalid when he criticises support. Dont mind criticism in a debate about the team...but criticism about support from those that don't go is off limits

try coming to a few games !!!! we support the club and manager ( bar Benitez because he was a wrong'un ) how dare you criticize the support

byeeeee...support the team whoever is in charge. If we can do it through Benitez we can do it through anyone

so what...lets have fun in the championship

Also, with the Euro 2016 in the summer and players coming back late because they have been with their country, this could be the time for any youngsters and fringe players not involved to make their mark at the club on pre season. I know ( before anyone reminds me we have been here before with players like KdB, Lukaku etc etc) but I honestly feel there is a slight change of direction and thinking with regards to our developing players. Mourinho has to start to trust more of them and if not start them in PL then certainly use them in league cup or give them decent time as a sub

Totally agree.....no messing with bidding process....straight in there with top bids and go for it

the support was extremely loud and overwhelming....one of the loudest its been for a while. TV do mute it or tone it down during parts of commentary

I know where you are coming from.... but if we sign so called world class players and it pleases the fans on here, I bet some of the same ones will also be moaning about youth never getting a chance. I just feel that the board will insist that we start integrating the better ones of the current crop and maybe just purchase 1 headline act . Its going to be a fine balancing act, but the board need the manager to be with them on this

Leeds (though I would like to see them back so we can renew the intense rivalry and dislike for each other again) Liverpool - victims of everything and the istoreee thing gets more boring and irrelevant each year Arsenal - more of a recent thing as we use to tolerate them, but they are like Liverpool of the South nowadays with the sense of entitlement Spurs - think they are a lot bigger than what they actually are

Can any of our loanees or academy players cover any of those positions. Pretty sure the board will want the manager ( whoever it is ) to start using the better ones I.e. Christensen, Baker, Solanke etc

sssssshhhhhh....don't ruin a good conspiracy theory

that is clear..thank you very much

9 outfield players there ( well with my dodgy close up eyesight)......I put to you ladies and gentlemen, that one who is missing......is our mole ;-)

are you including promoting some from loans i.e. Christensen, Ake etc who quite possibly be deemed good enough by the board for Jose to include in next years squad? or adding more on top of those

thanks....I dont know what all that means....you might as well be writing Manderin.So, I have the link of: http://i.imgsafe.org/2ebe564.jpg where would I put what parts? sorry for being a thicko here

Oscar has had in the past spells for just a few matches at a time where he is the hardest working and best player in the team. The amount of 'off camera' work he used to do was amazing and this covering of space and pressing use to open up other areas of the pitch for others to exploit. For some reason this has become more sporadic recently and whether its down to fitness, bad form or just lack of effort.....who knows!!!! But if he can regain the levels mentioned above he would once again be one the crowd favourites like before

wish you would cut out the Maureen malarkey..not big or clever.

no fans anywhere 'deserve' trophies.We 'as the fans' just do our job......support the team especially when we are down http://i.imgsafe.org/2ebe564.jpg

Well hopefully after the Stoke match....all the speculation will end and we find out for sure what is going on. If he goes and that was his last one infront of the fans....what a way to go

I have been to a football stadium and seen how new supporters to a stadium react

If they did and spoke out like they do on here....there would be a chance of a few taps round the chops from those standing near them.....however, I would bet, like all supporters coming for the first time to the Bridge, they would be bemused at whats going on around them, be as quiet as a mouse and get out their mobiles to take loads of pictures. Thats after they have purchased a half n half scarf from the street vendors on Fulham Road ;-) incredible support for mourinho tonight

ref your last bit...its the not knowing one way or another that seems to be driving everyone from fans through to media blog sites to the point of distraction and speculation. Once we all know for sure, then we can settle down and concentrate on other issues. But nice post anyway

are we allowed to upload images such as photos onto a forum page and if so how do you do it? sorry if its somewhere else
