  1. Nar cos it's September Good spot dude You know as well as I do how quickly we can get in a tail spin. Comeback now and it could have exactly the opposite effect, mainly through the players'/teams's self-belief.
  2. Sounds like McGovern's having another Euros run of form (with the woodwork on his side too!)
  3. Can't help thinking that this is a season defining game. Sometimes they are worth more than three points and this is one of them.
  4. class! Problem is with such Pepé Le Pew predictions, that on the same day as we hammered QPR (and you also saw two 'Peps') the Man City game was abandoned. Could be a nailed on sign, but what if it means another torrential downpour and another match abandoned (just saying...). Plus the odds will be better... get the garden shed on it!
  5. How have we gone from having a five aside team of number 10s to the point of playing somebody who doesn't really look like a number 10?
  6. :lol: funny thing I've seen in a long while.
  7. FWIW I pretty much agree with you Greg, apart from the bold bits. If his sloppiness had put us in serious danger, then I wouldn't have had to commit the cardinal sin of N-O (though shalt not disagree with the vocal minority). I do think he was an accident waiting to happen. It didn't happen. I can see he has a lot of strengths, but I do also find him slightly comical (he will forever be Cat from Red Dwarf to me, just can't 'unsee' it). Hoping he isn't another Bramble type (occasional glimpses of world-beating potential, mainly hidden under the bushel of being a error-generating liability). Will be as delighted as anyone if he proves an asset to the team and 'owns' the right side of the pitch ("That's mine. That's mine."). Just have a bad feeling about him.
  8. You're a baldy aren't you Semi-text....
  9. True. Though how would you class observable behaviour with or without times against it?
  10. Look up the word numerate, and see if it's something you think you can aspire to.
  11. I'm feeling the love chaps. I thought he was a liability and that is why; if you didn't fine. If you don't like facts/evidence as the basis of a viewpoint (which being able to read and all, I am obviously well aware is true for a couple of you) then give your head a shake you mad twats.
  12. I'm just observant, you charming little tyke you; and I'm not easily fooled by a quick pair of heels and a tub of brylcreem (that Hughie Gallacher got away with murder btw ...). Yedlin made loads of unforced errors. In the first first five mins he played one pass straight out of play, one pass to an opponent One cross hit an opponent two yards in front of him (promising position). He made two passes which whilst not quite hospital balls, needlessly put his own player under pressure. Lower highlights and low lights (I've ignored ten yard back and sideways passing): 11:13 pass to opponent 13:36 put Hayden under with a pass that got twatted Rafa then gave 'Slick' a good talking to 16:21 header to oppo not under pressure 16:52 throw in to oppo 18:18 good pass to Ritchie (first meaningful positive contribution) 20:00 overly hard pass to Shelvey who miscontrolled nearly gave it away in a dangerous area. 24:00 'decent' pass to Diame (who fluffed chance), but since I'm being critical CoolCat actually just popped out it up at a dodgy height with it left foot, when he may have been able to put it on a plate. 27:50 good cross (Cracking pass by Hayden) to opposition for Own Goal (don't tell me, you knew it would come-off in the end?) 32:00 jinking run and decent pass to Dummet for shot 37:00 first interception (block in box).Still yet to make a tackle. Sooo, 10 passes which one way and another put us (unnecessary) in difficulty. Yes, I think he was a liability and my gear remained 'undone'.
  13. He is though, undeniably a cool cat... https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=6ag0hm55jMg
  14. It's childish not using the correct name of their ground. Stick to The Palladium of Shite; let's not stoop to their level
  15. He was excellent yesterday man. He had a decent second half, the part of it he lasted. Just watched the game again and still think he was a liability in the first.
  16. This, needs more minutes and needs to play with Perez withdrawn behind him, they've had a good understanding in the past, something we're missing with this Gayle/Diame experiment. Think he needs more minutes, and to have his coach and fans believe in him (I know he should earn it, but he's the kind of player who will run through walls if he feels loved). Don't think we've seen enough evidence to suggest that Mitro with Perez behind is the solution, especially if not scoring enough goals is the problem. Would like to see Gayle running off him: like a poor man's/championship version of Shearer and Bellamy.
  17. Didn't see reasons for glowing praise. Did see multiple unforced errors: mainly dodgy as fuck passing in the first half. He's fast, looks like a hairdresser, silly first name, and seems a bit of a waste of space. In all respects reminds me of a defensive version of Sterling. Imagine those two on the same wing... Would be like an autobahn crossed with a skid pan: fast as fuck but never get anywhere. Raheem seems to have had a resurgence, and let's face it cost shed loads of dosh, so hoping the 'positive' similarities continue.
