Can't be any worse than last season's. A home draw against someone absolutely shit for me. Don't want the mackems. Derby away would be great for greedy personal reasons. https://www.nufc.com/

In Bruce's brainless 5-3-2 at the start of last season, aye. When West Ham, Villa and Southampton wandered through our midfield in consecutive games.

Out of curiosity I looked at Rodgers' early period in charge of Leicester and looked for any kind of similarities as besides last season and this they're kinda what we want emulate in the coming years. Took over from Puel and turned their form around; took 17 points from 30: 5 wins, 2 draws, 2 losses. Then in the summer they signed James Justin, Ayoze Perez, Dennis Praet and made Tielemans' loan permanent. In the first half of 2019-20 they took 39 points from 19 matches which included an 8 match winning streak and the record PL away win. Semi-finalists in the League Cup and got to the 6th Round of the FA Cup. Ended up throwing top 4 away a bit and finished 5th on the last day but still a sort of season we would only dream of this year. However, they already had Vardy, Maddison and Tielemans (kinda) there and Soyuncu wasn't dreadful then. The former 3 names are the type of quality of player we need to be getting in what remains of this window; maybe Maddison himself. Who knows. Only then can we get close to 6th and above imo.

In 2011-12 when we finished 5th we won 19 matches but drew 8 and lost 11, 65 points. That's Europa League form and it'll be even less for Conference League. However, the main reason why I think 7th will be our maximum ceiling this season is I can't see who we'd displace in the top 6. Aye, Man Utd are shite but they've a better squad than us still imo. Likewise with West Ham and with Leicester's starting XI. In 2011-12 we finished above Chelsea and Liverpool; I can't see us going above 1 let alone 2 of the big 6 as stands right now. 1 or 2 quality signings though and that may change.

The Bacchus had banners of old NUFC players (including Bruno though) in the pub on Saturday, thought it was pretty cool.

Thanks for going after Bruce but it's time to say how many shit takes Craig Hope has come out with recently.

Haven't won here in the PL yet so have had to include a couple of the draws. Think we'll finally get a win here though, 0-2.

As it stands right now, we have a slight chance of 7th if we can get 30-32+ games out of both Wilson and ASM. But going off the history, they will get injured at some point, especially Wilson. It hinges on that stipulation atm, sign a quality attacker or a Maddison and our chances improve.

Because this is British possession, proper as fuck.

Stonewall pen. VAR still fucking wank.

Maybe not. Deserved. Man Utd are utter shit.

Just offside I think.

Class yesterday. He's an absolute tank, never gets pushed off the ball and always wins it when he uses his body and shields it.

It's an honour to watch this guy play football. He's so fucking good, man. Best player that I've personally ever seen play for us.

I'm fucking hanging. We bossed that yesterday, from start to finish, and I can't remember the last home game like that. In complete control, just had to wait for the first goal and there was no way we weren't winning that once we got it. Great day, great performance, great result. Start of something special methinks.

Great minds etc. Hope everyone going down for this one makes it there and back okay given the train strikes.

Heading into town now. Can't wait.

Winning a game of football before the clocks go back would be nice.

Fat smoggy twat Bailey says we've moved on.

I don't like it tbh just don't like change
