I don’t believe in change?

Interested but I can’t be arsed to play anymore. I’ll come and ref if I can make it.

Mag.

No

Player of the match.

He’s a fucking idiot

Joelinton will be feine.

Oh dear. If we win are you getting sacked for rolling in mortal with no sleep?

It’s been the right answer for about 6 weeks and it’s still the right answer.

Isak.

Yeah, I get it. I honestly don’t think anything is going to get in the way of our progression though, we’ve got committed owners and the right head coach. I’m sure the vast majority will applaud the team off on Sunday no matter what.

Should have been closing down TAA for their first goal, but in possession he was great to watch. He should definitely start in the cup final.

I sort of understand where you’re coming from here, but do you really care more about what some idiots think than the outcome of a cup final your team are playing in? There’s loads of idiots around mate, football fandom is a reflection of wider society, I wouldn’t trust most of them to lock the front door. Fuck what they think, it means nowt, just enjoy the week.

Yeah, he won’t have written that.

This ref man…

Look at the refs view man

Aye me too. Hoping they do arrive like. TBH maybe it’s just recency bias, we’ve been so good for about a year that I don’t think I’ve needed to feel nervous. Pretty sure I felt it during those huge relegation games last season until it was clear we were going to be fine.

I have to say, the one thing that hasn’t come back for me after my time away is the nerves. I get excited, look forward to it, etc, but the nerves are gone. Maybe it’s just age/perspective.

I felt like I was surrounded by people who’d never seen an aeroplane.

Me and the lad sit in the back row about 30 seats along from you lot, as often as we can. He loves it when the wall gets hit.

Nah, it’s just new. The worst thing about it was that people wouldn’t shut up about it.

It’s a psychological thing, happened to me quite a few times when playing. You commit to heading the ball and the trajectory deviates from what you predicted, however, you’ve already committed and just go through the process of heading it.

This argument is starting to wear a little IMO. We were wide open defensively today and in the previous 2 games conceded soft goals from corners.

Absolutely vintage, chefs kiss, NUFC performance that.

Yeah. I get it. You don’t want to play them because we might not beat them. I do want to play them because I’m positive we will.
