    Referee:  Martin Atkinson -  second visit of the season from the West Yorkshire whistler, following the 0-1 home loss to Everton where Jonjo Shelvey saw red.

     

    Atkinson hasn't yet refereed the visitors this season. In fact, he has NEVER refereed a Huddersfield Town game in his last 16 years as an official.

     

    He lives not far from Huddersfield but is thought to have Leeds sympathies and hasn't officiated a game involving Leeds United or Bradford City in his career.

    Aye but Hudds fans aren't happy either as they say he's a dirty Leeds fan who hates them.

     

    Good. If we can put one over this insignificant scum with a terrible refereeing decision, I'll be delighted.

  2. Insanely difficult to come up with one favorite goal really:

     

    - Ferguson turn and volley vs Man Utd

    - Ginola Ferencvaros

    - Cole away at Chelsea

    - Lee home to Liverpool

    - Cisse at Chelsea

    - Robert home to Liverpool

    - Lua Lua home to Charlton

    - Pancrate

    - Ba home to Man U

    - Cisse home to Norwich

    - Shearer vs Villa

     

    fuck this :lol:

  3. I'd love to be as confident as some are but I just can't bring myself to be. That Bournemouth equaliser has left a really sour taste despite the fantastic win yesterday. This club ffs...

     

    Beating that s*** tip Huddersfield next would all but guarantee our safety though. Can't stand them, their players, or their manager.

  4. Really?? Like a rag doll? But carried on and finished the game with no problems.  Jesus this place is getting like North Korea, anything said that isn’t on message is intolerable.

     

    I said he is a massive upgrade but twice in two games he has stayed down while the game went on around him.  He can’t do that every game, that’s all I am saying.  Just to reiterate I think he has been really impressive so far.

     

    An elbow to the head and a knee to the chest will keep anyone down for a bit of time ffs :lol: Do you actually think he waits around for the right contact/moment to go down and stay down?

  5. The only way this becomes a good result is a draw at Anfield next weekend.

    You wouldnt have been happy with 4 pts from Man Utd (h) and Bournemouth (a)?

     

    Of course I would have. But it's about the momentum. Losing two late goals today followed by a pounding at Liverpool won't be good for us at all. If we follow up today's disappointment with a valiant draw away at one of the best sides in the country, it would keep the run going.

  6. So, some of us older NUFC supporters will remember when them shithouses last dropped into the third tier. Much merriment was made by NUFC's support. So much so that NUFC's support was very much in attendance in that relegation play off game at Roker Park v Cascarino lead Gillingham.

    First and probably the only time I've seen three sets of supporters in one ground. NUFC given their own section in the clock stand (to the left of the Roker End as you face the pitch.) Others intermingled with the unwashed as the gates closed on the NUFC section well before kick off. Myself included.

     

    So, should we go back this season when the inevitable happens? I'll be sorely tempted. 

     

    If you do go this season, try make sure we are safe first

    That's a salient point. In Rafa we trust eh?

     

    This is the real reason you came into this thread :lol:

  7. I sincerely hope England fail to make it out of their group in the World Cup. I'm not English and I've liked and been behind so many English teams in the past in major tournaments but I can't think of a more despicable group playing at the moment.

     

    Dele Alli personifies everything that is wrong with football in England IMO. Karma is a bitch though so I'm not too worried.
