Team selection gets easier

Jerome Thomas has duly been loaned out to Portsmouth for the rest of the season and you can't really see him coming back. As far as the player is concerned, I arrived in the "anti" camp relatively early. Possessed with buckets of ability, he has been a major disappointment. Content to amble through games when it's not going our way, he has looked to me like one of those pro's who is happy to pick up his wages irrespective of whether or not he's in the first team. Good luck to Pompey, maybe Harry can get more out of him than we did.

As more and more players leave, Alan Pardew's job gets in picking the team gets progressively easier. At the current rate, and with two full weeks left in the transfer window, we should be able to get the team to pick itself and dispense with the Manager altogether, cutting the wage bill even further. Why, at this rate we might even make a profit to return some of Derek Chappell's investment!
