  1. Wondering just how important to everyone this "7th best home record in the league" is? Personally I'm not bothered about it as long as we go up.

    Is she at least attractive? have we got a picture of this aunt?
  3. livescore saying this is two 3-4-3's lining up against each other?
  4. What's a goblin? http://i.imgur.com/95Q6OU5.jpg
  5. which are the ones with terrifying two chamber peanut fingers
  6. Holy smoke ................how much has this bloke made from getting sacked? Probably quite a bit but this one is on Derby for going back to him again imo. Poor, poor move.
  7. imo he's not above criticism but holy shit they come out of the woodwork, like oceans of whinge jizz have been building up while we'd gone unbeaten in 11 in the league, spite edging until the day you can just unload some bizarre doom and gloom forecast on the back of it. okay, so he got it wrong yesterday. On the weight and evidence of league table and position so far that's obviously the exception not the rule. We're not squeaking out streaks of good results like a pardew purple patch ffs
  8. I hope he makes a public apology and admits that 4-4-2 is the superior formation and that he is guilty of crimes against football before stepping down. It's the only honorable thing to do.
  9. Disappointing game. Poor set up, poor play. Disappointing result. However, league table would suggest this is a 'blip' rather than 'the norm' so not quite got the knives out for Rafa just yet. On thin ice though.
  10. amazing how a team and manager devoid of ideas manages to be top of the league
  11. This is the 3rd game in a row we've started dreadful. It's not good. Huddersfield we started very brightly nees.
  12. Rafa recommends using Ghostery as well.
  13. listening online working fine https://www.nufc.co.uk/liveaudio.html

  15. That was my point - Rafa doesn't tolerate players not doing exactly what he wants them to do. There's no wiggle room with regards to "he thought the short pass was a good option there". And the fact is that Rafa blames Mbemba for the midfield giving the ball away in that game, because even though his passes went to feet, they went to players who then turned it over and, in Rafa's plan, they should never have had it in the first place. This was reported a few weeks ago, pretty sure in The Chronicle. It fits with what we know about Rafa, it fits with what we saw in that game. Rafa had a plan, Mbemba didn't follow it, we lost, Mbemba doesn't play again. There's just no way in hell a manager that successful sees the game like that. It's a game of decisions based on the model you've been taught. Based being the key word. Fair enough if you ignore the plan for large periods of the game and don't make the pass when its there but to say there's no wiggle room is crazy. Don't ex-players all say similar as well - it's a very strict and disciplined approach from rafa and he's not afraid to drop someone who takes liberties. Saying there's absolutely no wiggle room though is probably a bit far but there's no question the margins are very fine with what he'll tolerate.
  16. That's what they said about Geremi and look h-- oh yeah.
  17. Some people just have cold hands/fingers I think. Medical condition like. Worked with a bloke who did. Would come in in fingerless gloves and a short sleeved shirt in the summer. Sat there all day typing. Said the office A/C made his hands uncomfortable. Never liked him.
