N-O Football Match - Red v Blue @ 10:30 on 18/05/19 @ Dunston Powerleague
HaydnNUFC replied to Dr Venkman's topic in Football
Was going to ask that, unsure who actually is going. -
3 points after 10 games, lost every home match in that run. With that in consideration, 45 points is incredible. That would get around 59 points across a whole season? Which is a total that would get you pushing for Europa League. Rafa, man.

There's loads on Twitter. Here's one. I need to use Twitter more. I'm assuming searching #olesatthewheel brings up some alright results? Aye. No need for the hashtag tbh, just search 'ole's at the wheel'. There's hundreds.

Stone Roses song Waterfall. Which is a great tune but now almost ruined by those twats.

Probably something Froggy[/member] could answer, but do Man Utd fans really think that Solskjaer is the man to stop that club from becoming one that perennially finishes 3rd-6th, or even lower? Which is something they have done for 4 of the last 5 seasons bar the year under Jose, who was ridiculed for saying finishing 2nd with that team is one of his best achievements. Looking at the quality of managers in the top 6, Pochettino, Guardiola, Klopp, Sarri and Emery to a lesser extent, do the fans actually see Solskjaer as the right quality of manager to get Man Utd to where they want to be, which is challenging for the title while competing with those managers? They need to get rid and go all out for Pochettino or Allegri for both long and short term, someone of that elite calibre. Not Solskjaer.

He won't be there in 2020.

What a guy. If he goes, I wish him nothing but the absolute best.

In all seriousness, top post and how I feel pretty much too.

Managed to get a couple of tickets in the away end. Yesterday and today on the drink with wor lass, match awesome, thought Shelvey stood out as particularly awesome amongst a generally awesome bunch of performances. Hope to God that this isn't another feeling of false optimism like after we humped Chelsea at the end of last season.

Ben Arfa's penalty though. Oof. -
Winner of Leeds v Derby.

When reading some of the .com reports that pop up on the On This Day section of the home page from like between 1996 and 2005 they seemed to be far more opinionated in match reports than they do now.

From what I've heard (as I was only 3 going on 4 year old at the time ) was that a large section of fans had had enough after the performance in Marseille and that being our 15th draw in a season which the football became a bit dour. Whether that was down to Sir Bobby, the people above him or the players' performances I don't know.

Quoting it again just for the sake of it. Perfectly put. As much as dislike Liverpool, Ashley would not have survived (probably even literally) his first lie there. Probably a bit delewdid jawdee here, but would it even take us much to push the top 6 with this manager and the right backing behind him? And that's not even astronomical money, just what the club gets from the TV deal every season in the summer? When clubs are bigged up for pushing the top clubs the counter argument thrown at it is there is no way the other 14 teams in the PL can compete with the spends of the top 6, but I don't think that argument is all that for clubs like us, Everton or by the looks of things (unfortunately), Wolves. However much money the Manchester clubs spend, the big teams in London spend, Liverpool spend, should have no bearing on whether we can beat the likes of Palace, Bournemouth, the promoted clubs, Burnley, teams of that ilk, more often than not home and away. And it's not so much that the club would have spend due to the quality of manager that's fallen into their laps to get there; getting 55+ points throughout a season which gives you a shout of Europe. Fucking Ashley, man.

Never got it and never will. Same.

I know we can't do much if his heart is set on finding a new challenge but if Rafa's staying I'd much rather we kept him. If we sell him for £25m the buying club'll be allowed to spread the fee over something like 5 years by the cunts above the manager. There you go Rafa, an extra £5m to your WAR CHEST to have us prepare a bid and ultimately fail to get someone nowhere near as good for ≤£10m.

How many points clear were they after we beat Man City? Those Leicester and West Ham draws look like the two killers. Hard to bring myself to say they choked it given their 1 defeat all season and potential 97(!) points total.
-
'But those sad Geordies raised their game against us. Hope [insert bad thing that could happen to Newcastle United, ie Rafa leaving, Ashley staying forever, here].'

Man City have been crap so far by their standards.
