    Which ironically, judging by some people

    on here and on social media (yes, yes. I know, I know). Plenty of fans fit the bill here. 
     

    A few sub-par performances, some players a bit out of form and some reverting back to their base level and they’re all worse than shite. 
     

    People have quickly forgotten the dark days and want it all straight away, it seems. 

     

    This is what I was getting at when I said 'some people would do well to remember the quote'

    I never liked that mantra, and it doesn’t speak for all of us.

     

    Mainly because it is utter bollocks - a team of triers losing every week would not be a popular one on Tyneside. 

     

    It really isn't utter bollocks but if that's your view, so be it.  Each to their own. :thup:

  3. We were spoiled last season, exceptional performances all round (some massively over performing) and unfortunately it seems sections of our support expect that to be the norm now. 

     

    'we don't demand a team that wins... we demand a club that tries' 

     

    Some people would do well to keep that quote in mind through our current evolution.  They'll have peaks and troughs as a team and as individuals, some of the comments I've seen about Bruno (not just on here) are fuckin ridiculous to put it lightly.

    I thought the terms said can only be returned for a credit, not a refund?

     

    edit

     

    from the website

     

    5.3 All ticket purchases are non-refundable (subject to clause 8.6). No refunds will be made in respect of any Match or Cup Match not attended for any reason whatsoever. It is your responsibility to ensure you are aware of the correct dates and kick-off times of all fixtures.

     

     

     

     

     

     

    The club can quite frankly fuck off with their approach to ticketing like. 

     

    No refunds, can't give to friends/family. Bollocks. 

     

    Will speak to them.

    I mean again, while it looks a bit sloppy it makes no difference if you get your email 30 mins after the ballot opens. You have 3 days to apply. 

     

    Aye, it's just bollocks really and not how it should be. 

     

    In the grand scheme of applying in the ballot, it doesn't make any difference, but they still shouldn't be shit at everything regarding ticketing.

    Also got this. Have logged in but it won't let me into the ballot. The "Sign In" button after I get through the queue is greyed out.

     

    click 'ballots' at the top instead of trying to select the match under 'home tickets' 

     

    The site is absolutely wank. 

  7. Had hopes of dortmund but don't think I'm going to be able to swing the cost.  Mates are travelling from Birmingham, about 300 for flights, before adding in the return train from dusseldorf, travel to brum, digs...... then beer, just doesn't seem doable for me. 

     

    Have a feeling Dortmund will be like Bruges, chocker with geordies without match tickets.  I really didn't want to miss out :lol:

     

    Sickener.

    Brighton are a really good side, there is no shame in being beaten by them.

     

    No shame getting beat off a good side, but we can definitely question the manner of it.  We looked like a completely different team today.

    Also up to the fans to rally... :thup:

     

    You're not wrong, said in the match thread we seemed strangely quiet. 

     

    Hope you didn't  take that post as a pop at the gaffa :lol:

     

    My worry  today was that the intensity/pressing wasn't there off the ball, and the sharpness wasn't there on the ball.  Frustrating as we know we're so much better than today. 

     

    He's got a big job to pick them up, and it's gona be a long couple of weeks, but he'll do it. 

     

     

  10. He desperately needs to pick them back up now.  Shocking display mentally and physically today which I'm not used to. 

     

    I can't pinpoint the issue, thought everyone with the exception of Tonali from the starting line up had a shocker today.
