What we did last night was no different to what Leeds did to us on Saturday, or what half the teams at the lower end of the table attempt to do every week. The big difference is we’ve got the quality to really stop teams in their tracks.

Seems to do it every game. Either he’s incredibly fortunate or he has a good understanding of where the line is. Mad that the only penalty he conceded was harsh as fuck.

Calling someone a dry roast is a tremendous insult FWIW.

We weren’t even that bad last night. Very little obvious blatant time wasting. Biggest piece of shithousery came from Lascelles.

This is almost entirely because the referee was a benny who lost his head about 20 minutes in.

Wilson’s foul wasn’t even a yellow card ffs

I thought Burn was class. He had the hardest job of anyone on the pitch tonight, and despite the fact no one thinks he’s a proper full back we didn’t concede.

My skipper

Biggest act of Scouse gaslighting since “it’s a term of affection in Uruguay.”

Howe didn’t want him to go in the first place did he? He’s not playing, there’s little chance of a permanent deal, he’s better than Darlow and Karius.

Law of averages stuff really. He had so many dead balls to deliver some of them were going to be arse. If we win I doubt anyone notices.

One of those days. Leeds had a plan, executed it almost flawlessly and we still managed to carve out a handful of chances. We were just unlucky they fell to the wrong players.

I think it’s a matter of great shame that our fans are still singing DJ Otzi in 2022.

Didn’t even take a whack to the head yesterday.

He’s not actually using them incorrectly tbf, it just looks mental because it’s Twitter and he hasn’t used like breaks.

Never has a man needed a sub-editor and a strict word limit more than Caulkin.

I think Waugh comes out with some genuinely insightful stuff. He’s obviously a bit of a tactics wonk. He can stay. Other two are dreadful.

POTT is unlistenable. If you heard people bantering like that in the pub after the match you’d leave your pint and go literally anywhere else. It should be much, much better than it is. There’s about 5 mins of decent football chat in among all the “Sergeant Waffles lolololol” and ads for the Athletic.

Get in. They’ve lost it.

In fairness he was Serbian.

I’ve been told the club are interested in BPV as a potential site for the new training complex but that’s about it.

No, not them. I meant the posters who have some very strong views about NUST, what’s wrong with it and how it should operate. God knows we’ve got a few. It’s very disappointing that none of them appear to have thrown their hat into the ring. I thought we’d at least manage one.

Did the nomination statements from the usual crowd in here get lost in the post or something?

We need to accept that we’re old curmudgeons whose consumption of content drastically differs from that of anyone born after 9/11. Wouldn’t surprise me if Adam P ends up being the new Robbie from AFTV, presiding over some vast new media empire and making millions in the process. The fact he’s managed to make it this far is ridiculous. Likewise he could drop off the face of the Earth in twelve months.
