" I know my team for the Wolves game and I want people who will be in the trenches because I was let down by one or two tonight. I'm not going to throw the towel in and I'll make sure we are ready for Saturday."

One or two? Make that five or six!

For half an hour I looked at Everton and thought - that's some line-up. So why do we look like we should win. The answer was obvious. They were bereft of confidence. Then they scored. And scored again. And looked like a team that had a completely changed mentality.

For City it was the complete opposite.

Is it a hangover from the Sala tragedy? 'Cos I'm struggling to understand why we caved in so weakly against a team we should have beaten. Although the clue to Warnock's mind set is that Reid apart, he sent out a Championship team to do a Premiership job - and they weren't up to it.

The men in the trenches would like a General who has the grit and determination to get stuck in and WIN. The team selection smacked of Warnock throwing the towel in. The midfield should have been changed at halftime.

Sorry Neil, but what I saw was that YOU were not ready for the battle.

Is that how you want to be remembered?
