Shadow Puppets

Incredibly over dramatic though, isn’t it? He made a significant mistake yesterday. But we’re incredibly fortunate to have a manager that has only shown 3 or 4 moments like that in his time here.

People reacted the same way when we went down 3-0 at Villa. I’ll happily put a bet on us recovering very quickly and getting a result at the weekend.

I think it’s fair to say that Eddie dropped one clanger yesterday in taking off Gordon. Other than that, the other subs made sense. Jo was injured and Tonali was starting to get very loose in possession. Those changes gave Liverpool the initiative. BUT… we had enough good chances to win that game comfortably, and we didn’t take them / had an excellent goalkeeper and post between us and a comfortable win. It was a frustrating as fuck afternoon, but thankfully we have a manager who works his bollocks off to better himself and he’ll learn from that. And it’s only maybe the 3rd or 4th time I can think of where you could actually pin any blame on the manager since he took over.

Yeah Bruno was excellent yesterday apart from that one stupid costly moment. It was his best game in 6 months. Shame.

It let me about 10 mins ago start it, but they must have clocked it. It’s locked now.

Assuming this has been mentioned but can’t be bothered to look, but episode 4 is showing up for me right now ?‍♂️

Maybe I’m missing something, but A) who says he’s rich, privately educated Tory and B) even if he was, why does that matter?

If people think Bruno was shite last night they need their eyes testing like. He had one awful effort on goal, but he had a decent game otherwise, in the circumstances. Did very little else wrong.

After being at the Etihad yesterday with work, I’m starting to edge towards the idea that we’re going to need a brand new stadium sooner rather than later. Extending St James’ feels like it would be papering over the issue. Ultimately we’d be extending the Gallowgate for a stupid price, only to need a brand new stadium in 10 years time. The professionalism, sleekness, and the hospitality at the Etihad are all streets ahead of St James. If commercial revenue is needed, a bigger better stadium is needed. (and I know I know, it’s not all about money, but I think we’ll end up holding ourselves back)

Really poor performance this.

I thought he had a decent game today, other than THAT shot ?‍♂️

Of course it’s PR. Doesn’t mean they’re not genuine people though. Their reactions at games are not staged one bit. (I’ve sat 5 rows in front of them before… I know how they react) It is actually possible for someone with a lot of money / power to still be a nice genuine person, that’s all I’m saying.

Loved that episode like. I, personally, love the passion of Amanda and co and I have absolutely no fucking clue what @Jimburst is on about. Smacks of “I hate them because they’re different to me” to me.

I don't know. Perhaps, for all we know, Man City have requested that that happens so that they don't have to check all IDs on the gates.

I think I'm missing something. What exactly is the problem now? That some tickets will automatically be flagged for a random ID check? Why is that so bad?

They got a house in Gosforth.

RCB is definitely the priority in my mind. I like Burn, Targett is decent, and Trips and Tino can play there if necessary. If Schar is injured, the fall to Lascelles is huge.

I entirely disagree. He ran it for about 10 mins early in the second half.

He just doesn’t seem very good, though.

Specsavers mate

Zero chance we improve on Almiron at RW this window. Eddie loves him, quite rightly so.

Your posts are really tough to read man. Find every little negative and overexagerate them.

The Leazes must have serious atmosphere issues, because it was class in the Milburn close down towards the Gallowgate.

His all round game was good. Played a big role. He’s just getting into a nasty habit of being caught in possession once or twice per game.

Neither were offside. The first, it’s the closest defender to the camera playing Botman comfortably on, and the 4th was tight but fine.
