DJ_NUFC

I’m the most engaged and invested into NUFC today than I’ve been in over a decade. Currently it might not be enjoyment, but it’s probably something better: relief and hope.

These words need to be emblazoned on an inspiring photo of SJP and made the forum banner.

Ah I wasn’t aware of this. Hmmm it could work.

Dang.

How injured is he?

You’d think both Howe & Nickson would be pretty familiar with Champo cream, surprised we’ve not pursued a couple seriously.

And for that, I shall be raising your rent, serf.

Look, I get that you absolve the new ownership and management of any and all blame. And that is your wont, and you’re entitled to your opinion, and even broadcast it 24/7 on here. But you’ve been pushing this narrative, creating an environment, where any opposing opinion, however mild, is treated as ignorant at best, or enabling the Ashley regime at the worst.

You seem to spend a large portion of your time on here tone policing, making wild accusations and public judgments about anyone who dares question the new owners and manager. Just above, you mentioned “hardly a peep when Ashley was here,” get to fuck. You know nothing about many of us on here, if you actually believe that.

I cold call leads at least 2-5 times a week mate, I understand both the need and value in cold calls. You don’t have to get all defensive, when I was simply surprised by hearing that, and expressing a very mild reaction. This forum is sprouting some serious cult-like mentality around the new owners and manager. Any criticism or perceived negative remark is met with Mao’s Cultural Revolution.

Man logs onto Internet forum to tell others to stop complaining about stuff.

what on earth… is this true?

€25m bid with bonus for winning Eurovision submitted.

Let’s just get the Gang of 5th back. What are Yohan Kebab and Demba Ba upto these days.

Yesss. Come home, sweet Prince.

Good to see you back, Ron. Hope time has treated you well. 🥃

yeah, I felt trippier and schar were more to blame for the goal itself. Former was ballwatching standing next to Jamaal, whereas the latter was MIA. And the cross should not have been allowed to come in in the first place. Disappointing all round.

Love him to bits, but we need someone to physically hold him back from approaching the 6 yard box, because even the wife today was like, “I could’ve finished that.”

Holy fuck time passes so fast. 2016! What have I been doing with my life. How is this dude still at the club?! 😔

Another thing… echoing what others have said about the lack of attacking nous. It’s been 3 months now and our main attacking tactic still seems to be: pass to ASM > hope for magic. What happened to all that pass and move we saw in early training videos? Why are none of our players capable of creating a single passing triangle? Why can’t we hold the ball? Why don’t we move as a unit? Really disappointing. edit: I get that he inherited garbage, who cannot change. But we are halfway through the transfer window and haven’t bid for a single CM or DM.

Still behind Howe, I like him as a person. However, agree with a lot of the valid criticism in this thread. For me, replacing the center of midfield was priority, even above ST or CB, and he’s not identified that as an urgent need. That to me has been shocking and confounding to see. We’ve sent bid after bid for CB’s but haven’t pursued a list of midfield targets from Jan 1st. That tells me he may not understand, or has not been able to diagnose the glaring issue at the heart of the team. We needed one or two midfielders in before Watford, the back 4 has desperately needed not only protection but someone who can energize the space in front of them, and drive the ball forwards, retain possession. We are still starting with Sean fucking Longstaff while chasing Botman and another CB. Mindboggling.

what does “remain in contact” mean? How is that done? Leave Zoom on, or exchange WhatsApp memes every few hours?

The Casbah only rocks after 8AM.

Hola. Anywhere in the Dallas area this weekend to watch the game? Gonna be in town, and I haven’t actually seen a Toon game in a bar since pre-covid, would be great to get a few pints in and meet fellow barcodes.
