yep looks like we are going 'shit for shat' with them. Shit for shat.

Hay neesy, there's no point trotting out the remorse* (here fuck it, re-horse) now.

Which post are you on about, you touchy Scouse radgie?

Worra dickhead.

Every time I see 'Moderate' across the top I get geet excited and start planning who to ban, then I click it and see:

It's true though, I'd much rather get pissed than go to work. Unfortunately needs must.

This was good: I didn't really like it at first but grew to like it more as it got more popular, which is ironically the opposite to how I usually react to new music. That's not far from me, the camera must have been close to a shot of me in me gegs.

Desperate to see footage of him jumping up and down celebrating on his own in an empty stand.

If we kill Jonas I'll be fucking livid, suspect the police might be interested n'all.

Spready's to blame. Adds up.

Some people on this forum definitely amaze me like, there's no 2 ways about it.

Geek squad, put your motherfucking hands up.

Even if it took a deflection it must have been very slight, most likely would have flew in anyway. Whereas their goal was lucky as fuck.

1st 40 minutes was an open, end-to-end game, what you on about? After their first goal, they were disgracefully conservative for a home side. Why the blue face?

The problem is that the result and performance don't exist in isolation because we needed to win tonight as it was our last realistic chance of an away win before the middle of January (and I'll tell you now that we'll get fuck all at Carrow Road). We're long past the point where we can take encouragement from any sort of performance unless we've given someone a real battering or been robbed by a ref and that certainly wasn't tonight. They missed much better chances than we did. Well we can take heart in it if you want us to start playing good passing football with 3 in midfield. Because we've started playing it. We've played like shite all season and I'm convinced we've been told to play that direct football up until now. In which case it's a bit much to expect us to immediately switch into an incisive attacking unit as soon as we switch it. I hope we stick to this sort of system/style until the end of the season, because it'll start working.

Er well, thanks mate, you did put words in my mouth. I never said we dominated, my original post said we were excellent without being incisive. All fucking season long we've been asking why we're hoofing the ball up - well tonight we played 433 and we kept the ball on the deck. We hardly hoofed the ball at all and when we did it was more of a lofted ball from midfield than anything else, and even that was rare. If you moan all season about us playing hoofball (as I have) then we start playing passing football throughout the game then it seems a bit fucking demanding to say you think our passing football isn't incisive enough. Give it time man, hopefully we've reverted back to 433 and back to a passing style. Tonight wasn't that much different to our game against West Brom away last season in terms of our approach, however Fulham had 8 or 9 men behind the ball at most times. It was therefore difficult to open them up. Moan too loudly and Pardew will go back to the hoof. Stick with this and we can hopefully progress. To me it looked like we played 4-4-2 or 4-3-1-2 from HT onwards. Hard to tell though as no-one was on the right. Our only problem with passing it around away these days is that teams are sitting a lot deeper against us this year as we're not a surprise package anymore. It was more difficult to tell the formation once Ameobi came on, however we kept passing it. I could tell because I'm quite impatient with hoofs now and will normally shout "Enough of that shite" or words to that effect and barely did so tonight. I swear we'd have beaten Fulham if they weren't in shite form, as perverse as it sounds. They were so defensive it was untrue. I don't think there was one when Shola came on unfortunately, we lost that link between midfield and forward line for sure. Strange, strange substitution even moreso as you say we didn't just start belting it forward thus rendering Shola pretty much useless. We were on top and for me he had to bring Marveux on for a like for like to keep it going, that sub threw us for 5-10 mins while we regrouped. Exactly what a sub is not supposed to do when you're chasing the game. I was 100% fucked off with Pardew for not starting Marveaux, I gave him the benefit of the doubt and presumed he'd picked up an injury. I was fuming when I saw Marveaux coming on on 85 fucking minutes, it's an absolute joke that he didn't feature more heavily. I definitely had problems with selection / subsitutions.

This was arguably the only time we've played well over 90 minutes this season, just a shame we played against a side that parked the bus and didn't get much of a break.

I feel like Ian W here. Not going to stay in this thread to argue the point. Interesting how people I normally get on alright with on here take a fairly immature, mocking tone when you dare to take a different stance. Grow up. Some of you are angry and beyond reason at the minute so I'm off. We tried to play good football this evening and it didn't pay off. I can't remember being in a much happier (but obviously by association fairly disappointed) defeated away end than I was tonight. There weren't any complaints about the performance.

I haven't had time to read the last umpteen pages but I can't believe I'm: a) Coming home to people moaning about that performance. and b) Agreeing (never mind being the last man standing) with Ian W.

This. If he's getting criticism for anything but team selection and Substitutions tonight then this is the only answer.
