JohnC I could not agree more. Personally, I am in favour of a two chambers for Parliament and was quite happy when we had a limited House of Lords, based purely on hereditary Peers who generally had no axe to grind and was not all about politically appointees. Some of present people sitting in the House of Lords, the largest second chamber in the world, are not worthy of their appointment.
posted by bigboy4650 (Guest) - Thursday 11th December 2025, 11:17 AM Have to agree with you Bigboy. The Government of the day being able to totally change the balance is nothing short of political manipulation and undemocratic. I can appreciate the arguments for and against the hereditary appointees. Liebour of course hate people of privilege, on the other hand, for good or ill, the Peers are the largest land owners in the country and we hope would therefore, through self interest if nothing else, would work in the best interests of the country as a whole as their main consideration. Change to the political interference is, as has always been the case necessary, but politicians are never going to vote in favour of lessening their interests. The thought of an elected second chamber such as the USA fills me, at least, with horror. Can you imagine another opportunity for the electorate to screw up? No thanks.
posted by Mortlake (Guest) - Thursday 11th December 2025, 12:27 PM Maybe the second house shouldn’t be political. Maybe we need a set of cleaver and experience people across all walks of life. We need some clever economist to stop the government making suicidal decisions. We need good social service senior people to make sure interest of the needy are looked after. We need ex CEOs. We need ex entrepreneurs, we need rich and poor representatives, etc. ultimate the role of the chamber is to stop unfair and extreme decisions made without proper thoughts. Also, why all laws need to be passed by this second chamber? Why not only those that meet certain criteria. We need to knock the house down and rebuild from ground zero.
posted by JohnC (Guest) - Thursday 11th December 2025, 1:00 PM Lot to agree with there John. I’ve always thought that you could have maybe a fixed number of Peers. I fear having them without political alliances is probably an impossibility. There would probably be unresolveable discussions as to the split. Every party would want to be represented right down to the Monster Raving Looney Party. If you just had 300-600 good men and true you’d probably get all sorts of shenanigans. Bribing, blackmail all sorts. It’s always very difficult to change something, particularly in politics. Maybe if it is totally broke don’t try a fix it. Whatever you do need a 2nd chamber to hold the Government to account.
posted by Mortlake (Guest) - Thursday 11th December 2025, 2:07 PM Agree with most points. I always thought the second house failsafe should be set up similar to a jury or magistrate court with members from all walks of life, colour, creed, religion and profession, etc.
posted by MST (Moderator) - Thursday 11th December 2025, 2:37 PM JohnC, far too drastic whilst Mortlake I consider your ideas may be unworkable. However, we appear to be in unison the the present second chamber is purely politically divided and unsuitable for its purpose.

Saying that I will be gutted if we do finish in the bottom 3.

I was born in Paddington and my old dad used to take me to Rangers as a kid but when old enough, I used to go to Chelsea when Fulham played away. ‘75 FA Cup run was my first foray into away days. I still look out for all three club’s results and would always route for any London club against other opposition (but never really paid much attention to Brentford). If no FFC then I’d probably go to Forest Green Rovers or Cheltenham because they are relatively close to where I live although I do have a soft spot for Wimbledon due to being on their books in my mid to late teams - as to Sutton United and Carshalton Athletic for the same reason.

Not sure Silva would even be the right man for Bournemouth with all that flitting around he does with substitutes to be honest. He hasn't signed his contract which is a windup. His decision-making in subbing is questionable and we need improvements plus we need wins. I just don't think Slot is our man for Fulham and personally i think dutch managers and systems don't have much success in England.

We are dropping points and losing games because of poor decisions by Marco. Manage top teams?
posted by OWEN - Tuesday 09th December 2025, 8:44 PM I am, or was great admirer of Marco Silva, but if I'm going to be honest, and in my opinion, he has made quite an few blunders lately, not just with the team selection, but to the wrong subs at the wrong time. Look, I'm now only a football watcher, and what I know about team selections, and subs could be printed on a pin head, but so many of us are of the same opinion, so we can't all be wrong, or can we ? It worries me quite a bit, that he isn't going to sign a new contract, so if he is going to move to pastures new, he isn't really worried where we finish this season, as he will be managing another club next season somewhere else.

Two wins on the trot, and we will be talking about Europe again. You would think that we only had 6 games to go instead of 22.

As for the midfield it was surprising Marco sent on Lukic for Berge its like for like but I do know we could have done with the 6'5'' Norwegian at the corner CP scored from . Chukwuzee had plenty legs left when he left the field and usually comes good late in the game same could not be said for Kevin who replaced him he looks out of his depth to me . We can mix and match any combination of forwards but its always going to difficult when the wingers don't have a target to aim at in the box we basically need asap an old fashioned CF although in fairness to Jimenez he works his socks of for 90 minutes .

Hi Morty, I cannot work out what our manager does when we are in front or drawing with the opposition in the last minutes. We have lost many points when it’s near to the end of the game. I was looking at Leno and he is not very good in the air, after Palace scored the winning goal I noticed that both of he’s feet were behind the goal line, if he saved a shot it would be a goal because he was behind the line. Surely our manager noticed this, if yes and we are doing ok don’t change the team with minutes to go.

posted by T.NO (Guest) - Monday 08th December 2025, 9:50 AM I like the semi automation and let the computer decide (like Tennis and goal line). With this, they can and should give the attacking team the benefit of doubt caused by the margin of error on the correct camera frame used, by increasing the tolerance so such a minute difference (in our case maybe one cm). This would ensure only clearly offsides the goals are disallowed. I remember many years ago before technology, referees were told to give the attacking teams the benefit of doubts.

There is no doubt, that we have two big six pointers coming up against Burnley and West Ham. We are easily good enough to win both games, but they are not on grounds where we don't normally pick up points, but this time we just mustn't lose either.

Hopefully after these games, we will prove that we are. I didn't go today, for family reasons, but without knowing the result, I have just watched the recorded match. How unlucky were we, and that offside was so, so, unlucky, and we looked the better team. There are still plenty of games to go, so absolutely no panic just yet. I have also been speaking to my friend, who is a Brighton ST holder, and he said that West Ham were dreadful, but Brighton were even worse, and they were lucky even to get a point. So we are not the only ones with bad results.

Silva doesn't see and think! What player isn't playing well enough out there and should be taken off? It was obvious! No' Silva takes off players playing well and we lose the shape and lose.

Yes agree with all that! Some needless substitutions which changed our shape push and tempo. Why does he do this? Rowe off for Kevin, another dribbler Josh King on, he is just not strong enough in there. Palace are too well organised and it was sheer class and quality and a wonderful goal from Wilson that opened them up, they don't concede many like that. Berg was having a great game, again why? When i saw Lukic come on i knew we had lost our shape to a well drilled Palace and an intelligent Glasner. Glasner always play the same side and only sub when necessary. I don't know why Marco subs when he does sometimes, i think he gets bored or whatever. You are correct, we lost this game because of Marco's incompetence.

Jonah put in a reasonable shift Tuesday night. Feel he’s going to be handful for oppo defenders. Be good to give him 45 mins today to give Raul a bit of a break too.
posted by Dellers (Guest) - Sunday 07th December 2025, 10:47 AM I very much doubt King and Smith Rowe starting Together. We will have Wilson and Chukwueze in the wings and Smith-Rowe starting in the midfield with Iwobi. Johan is not ready for 90 or 45 mins but if we are in a winning position, Marco will give him 20-25mins. He could be a nuisance if we want to defend a lead.

posted by Zapo. (Guest) - Saturday 06th December 2025, 2:20 PM Great memory recall about that game featuring Jimmy Hill and Vic Keeble Bigboy, Fulham wouldn't have been on my radar back then. You actually inspired me in what next to touch on next here. You brought up again Smith Rowe and his goal which proved how good he can be you say, and i want to tap some people's consciences and go on to say that Maybe Marco should put in the hours and minutes with Smith Rowe on the pitch more and that's my moan about Marco Silva in a nutshell. A few on here don't seem keen on Smith Rowe but it is blatantly obvious that the boy is more talented than we give him credit. I am not usually woke but the fat jibes don't help and guy's remember the 39 million pounds we invested in Smith Rowe. Just think on those 90+ minutes which goes into hours. It makes me wonder, how many goals we might have had from Smith Rowe? Answers on a post card Paddy O. Marco Silva is a good manager and i said good instead of great because some of his substitutions this season have not been great but like that song from Meat-Loaf 'Two out of three ain't bad'. Like they say about home-work at school, Marco can do better. Overall he has made some fantastic substitutions which have the desired effect.

posted by MARCO FAN (Guest) - Thursday 04th December 2025, 8:51 PM Nobody knows what goes on behind closed doors but Marco has been with us for nearly 5 seasons and I’m sure he would love a big club/job whilst he still has credibility,look at Franks move to spurs some clubs are beyond quick repair but I wouldn’t blame our Marco to give it a go,not sure our chairman could meet he’s demands but one thing i do know is we will struggle to get another manager to last 5 years.
posted by Chief (Guest) - Friday 05th December 2025, 6:46 AM Have yoy heard that saying, 'Bite your nose to spite your face'? Marco still hasn't signed his contract and that leaves a lot of personals and stuff hanging in the air and this is the problem. The Khans must be wondering what is going on or why he has not signed ect. We get it, Marco might be holding out for a transfer budget for a midfielder and a striker in January but our problems might not be that essential or critical, depending on how we see our current squad. We know that the neutrals and some pundits don't see much of a problem; in fact some say we are decent. With the likes of Chuckwueze Kevin and Josh King, people might be wondering what we have to moan about? We know that we need that extra player but is it worth chucking a team in like our set-up for the likes of a Tottenham who famously sack every other manager after so long? Not just Tottenham, even Man Utd might be a poison chalice for the likes of Marco Silva who has dreams of taking over a bigger team. Another saying is 'Be careful what you wish' and Marco might succumb to the same fate like the Everton project. If the Khans have it in their heads to wait on Marco's decision, hunky-dory everyone is happy but if not?

posted by OWEN - Thursday 04th December 2025, 7:32 PM Got that slightly wrong? Meaning to say Chucka is good for goals but i wouldn't put him in that striker role. Interesting that Marco is giving Jonah our big guy a start. Sometimes it is hard to weigh our team up this season. We look world class when we are on our game and we score great goals that catch the public eye. Marco has a few moans about the shortness of our squad but their is huge potential and talent within us which we can eak out. Our biggest problem is our midfield and lack of dominance and control at the moment which suggest that we need somebody in there still. We can wait for Muniz and i wouldn't rule out Jonah just yet. So i think more goals will come. natrually from this squad if we have the patience to grow it. Marco Silva would be stupid to leave a squad like this now and i think a more patient and good manager would reap the benefits from our obvious and growing talents of a team.

A question and two comments if I may.. who are the three players we are about to lose? Wilson? Traore? The club needs to nail down Chuka or he’ll be off to a bigger club. No dithering, we need to sign him in January. Comments: I think Marco put the wrong side out against MC - too defensive Berge and Lukic - no creativity and, particularly, Lukicpl played poorly. I understand the logic of a defensive formation but City will open any team if they sit back. We should have played the same starting 11 re. Tottenham. We proved, in the second half, that our best form of defence against City is to attack them. There are rumours-comments that Silva is unlikely to sign a new deal. On Talksport yesterday, Murphy suggested this. Tottenham also seem to be sniffing around if Frank fails. One thing is clear, the only possible way we’ll keep Silva is to show real intent and ambition in the January transfer market

posted by The Time Is Now - Thursday 04th December 2025, 11:33 AM TTIN, I am tending to agree with you, as although for various reasons we haven't made a great start to the season, but we should pick up enough points not to be involved in a frantic end of the season, end of the table battle. We have in my opinion, a good enough squad, to be comfortably placed in the table. The games that worry me, are the games with bottom sides like Burnley and West Ham, who we very seldom beat, especially away, and for some unknown reason, Palace has also become our nemesis, which worries me about Sunday.
posted by AC (Guest) - Thursday 04th December 2025, 12:15 PM What’s clear this season across all teams is it is very difficult to integrate a large number of new players into a squad. Hence, our slow start. Look at Liverpool. Look at Chelsea last season and this. Look at Man U (but they are a bit of a basket case anyway). look at Brentford this season having to bring in a few key players. Etc etc. the positive is i think most go agree that Marco has now found his formula (as he has consistently done in previous seasons), so our curve should up on the up. My only concern is the Afcon up which will break up a large part of our team. But I think we are very safe!!

It's not what we've learnt, but what has Silva learnt. Apparently nothing, he keeps playing the Berge/ Lukic partnership when it obviously does not work. His negative approach to the game cost us a result. With our record against City, we had nothing to lose but everything to gain, but Silva saw it differently.
posted by mwk (Guest) - Wednesday 03rd December 2025, 7:03 PM I think the 1st half proved what lots of us on here have said for some time. Berge and Lukic together gives us nothing. Too much tip tap and staying in our own half. 2nd half what a difference! We started moving the ball quickly and getting at them ( how we started at Spurs) Marco has to decide on which one starts (maybe neither) and which one is the understudy. Personally Lukic should be on the bench in case Berge needs to come off, even then I think I prefer Harrison Reed with his extra energy. Now with AFCON coming up we're going to miss our 3 Nigerians, fingers crossed we can keep our gap over the bottom 3 whilst they're away
posted by NRL (Guest) - Thursday 04th December 2025, 3:06 AM They support the defence so our attacking players can concentrate on attacking and only defend when it is absolutely necessary. That is the reason I believe but if I was manager I would not play Lukic and give Kevin a run down the middle in his place as he could be devastating playing as a number 10.
posted by The Time Is Now - Thursday 04th December 2025, 11:10 AM You could be right TTIN. Lukic looked seriously out of sorts tthe other night and Kevin is a serious quality player who Marco has to fit into the team better than thus far.
posted by Mortlake (Guest) - Thursday 04th December 2025, 3:40 PM

We really looked if we might score an equaliser in the end, the crowd were brilliant and drove them on. We forced City to adopt our tactics to flood team with defenders. City are second in the League and at times looked as ordinary as Spurs. The Premier League is very weak or we are very strong, I am sure it is the latter but if it is the former take advantage of it.
posted by The Time Is Now - Wednesday 03rd December 2025, 10:01 AM Before we played both Spurs and City, I must honestly admit, that if we had got 1 point out of the two games, we would do well, expecting a defeat at Spurs, and maybe hold City to a draw. Now after both games we unexpectedly have 3 points so a 2 point bonus. The bookies have stretched our odds for relegation from 6/1 out to 10/1, so they seem confident that we will be OK. I know nothing is certain in football, but it does seem at this stage of the season, that Wolves will go down, and Burnley's position is also dodgy, so it really means that there will only one place to fill at the bottom, and if we could only start to pick up points away from home, that 3rd bottom spot, will not be us.

Marco still doesn't know his best team out there and Chucka deserves a start from what he has shown so far in games. We say it so many times, Lukic and Berg together are too defensive, leaving Man City to run riot through our midfield. Marco has got to come up with a solution. They are a top team and they will slice through most defences and run the show so we can forgive a few mistakes by some of ours. Leno flapped at one but their keeper made mistakes too. Marco's biggest mistake in my opinion was to take off a in form Smith Rowe who was showing signs that he was coming back to his best against Spurs and he was on it tonight. Marco the tinker-man overthinks and messes the rhythm up too much.
