  1. The games gone soft. Etc. Etc. It absolutely has. Thanks VAR and thanks for the draw today. We will suffer when we play say ermmmm...[picks name out of 5 team hat]...Arsenal (h).

    Joelinton

    Mr Versatile. In Goal by Christmas.
  3. Too late I think mate. I'm out of the WA group atm to be honest as I needed time for myself with the twins. So not totally sure.
  4. Even when it comes to the club, like if they say Ticket prices are now £150 each we could hopefully make the right level of stand against it. Or make voices heard at least. I mean, I cannot promise it but we've hopefully shown we'd take some stance on such things.
  5. Nar na. I think we intended to do it last season but he got a red card before said game. However, it has been discussed for a fair few weeks, in fact, during the Euros, because like everyone else we were gobsmacked he was benched so much and felt he needed a warm welcome back.
  6. My hope is that this good will kind of protects us as a fanbase too. I know that may seem arrogant and that's not the intention, but if we have to give a solid message at some point, hopefully we can utilise said respect-gained.
  7. The Spartan Army or sumit? They're doing alreet stuff up there I've heard like
  8. Exactly. I think I'd have liked a draw at Fulham but having beaten Wolves I'd say we're probably a point ahead of where I'd expect. It was better to beat Wolves and lose at Fulham than to get a point from both. I wouldn't have been to disheartened losing to Man City today albeit I did hope for at least a point given our fortitude at home. All this talk of us not clicking yet etc. We've lost one in 6 and played two of the top 6 of last season...Fulham have began the season well. Wolves (a) we usually struggle at and we had 10men for 60mins of our first game of the season. The performances may have been shite, but we're picking up points and once again Eddie Howe proved why he is class today.
  9. I mean, her team is Inter. Not sure Wor Flags beat the Curva Nord

    Sean Longstaff

    Wasn't Joelinton at LCB or or some shit today? I missed the first half and start of the second.
  11. Mint. Will watch shortly. Not why we do it (for mentions) of course, but it's class that the media and club recognise it as, if it has made a positive, difference for anyone then that is absolutely the reason why we do it.
  12. Since 2000, he's got to be up there for influence like given his longevity.
  13. The stuff of dreams. TBF I love the above Lascelles crack. He is a different type of captain to Trippier and Bruno. Trippier is perhaps most complete and can lead by example, experience and explanation through his good comms. Bruno has the example piece through his ability but not the rest yet. Lascelles is all out attitude though and I love that. He knows he isn't mint, but he is a fighter. He helped change the spirit of this club and is so often forgotten.
  14. To clear any curiosity... My suspicion was that if Howe wanted to drop him or that he was underperforming for the wrong reasons then backing him now maybe backed Howe into a corner or validated his under-performance for whatever reasons (seemingly contractual?). For me I wanted us to back Howe and the full team as I felt they were all under scrutiny after the loss at Fulham and Hope's shit-stirring. I suggested we did AG10 for BHAFC instead. They obviously didn't. It worked. I do believe that perhaps a display such as this, or the Maxi one or whatever are more important sometimes than the big and fancy ones. The ones that directly impact an individual or the team with the right encouragement at the right time. I think because of the team spirit that exists they all feel proud for one another. Howe created that.
  15. There was some debate about the display today tbh. Not so much in the group but just between me and one or two others from the group. Admittedly, they got it right re. Timing of the message and it worked out very well.
  16. Wasn't me this time but I'll pass your message to the rest of the group

    Sean Longstaff

    I really like Sean Longstaff but thought he should have done better with the chance and not losing the ball when he did. Having said that I'm gonna now take my myself to the Fabian Schar thread to see if he is getting the same grief for his ridiculous Cruyff pass at 1-1. Longstaff isn't great but I absolutely get it if he is shiteing his pants every time he gets the ball at SJP. That may not be good enough for us, which is fair comment, but nonetheless- it's a very sad state of affairs that, that's how he feels.
  18. Was good versus Fulham too, and I am usually a bit critical of him.
