Teasy Posted October 26, 2008 Share Posted October 26, 2008 Some people need to get a fucking grip here, we got lucky to get a draw against the mackems at the stadium of shite last season, we were worse in that game then we were yesterday. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
NE5 Posted October 26, 2008 Share Posted October 26, 2008 Nowhere near the worst NUFC team in 28 yrs but considerably less fight and drive than most teams taking part in derby games in most of that period. No wonder people are pissed off with this overpaid circus. i posed the question, to raise debate, i think the side of the late 80s were equally poor, if not worse., but its your overpaid circus remark that gets me thinking,..... Does this side give the worst value for money for 28 years??? worst team since 1992 without a shadow of doubt Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skeletor Posted October 26, 2008 Share Posted October 26, 2008 It's nowhere near the worst side in 28 years like. Definitely one of the most spineless though. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mick Posted October 26, 2008 Share Posted October 26, 2008 Definitely one of the most spineless though. They weren't spineless against Everton and Man City. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Syrette Posted October 26, 2008 Share Posted October 26, 2008 It is far from the best at the moment, but then again not everyone is fit. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Syrette Posted October 26, 2008 Share Posted October 26, 2008 We were worse under Souness imo. And Dalglish. Like I said, in the context of not having everyone fit or fully fit, this is far from the best we've had since we got into this league. Our first choice squad with everyone fit and playing well is decent enough. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skeletor Posted October 26, 2008 Share Posted October 26, 2008 Definitely one of the most spineless though. They weren't spineless against Everton and Man City. Were against Hull, Blackburn, Arsenal, Spurs, West Ham and most importantly the Mackems though. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Washington_Mag Posted October 26, 2008 Share Posted October 26, 2008 This team would walk over some of the ones Souness put out. Debatable. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mowen Posted October 26, 2008 Share Posted October 26, 2008 This team would walk over some of the ones Souness put out. Debatable. It would walk all over the team that lost 1-0 to wigan reserves under Souness, and the one that meekly surrendered 1-0 at home to Sheff Utd under Roeder.

Baggio Posted October 26, 2008 Share Posted October 26, 2008 the midfield is comfortably the worst we've ever had in the premiership to be fair Faye & Clark were by far and away worse tbh, and we somehow won a derby 4-1 with that winning formula. faye and clark were hardly a regular partnership tbh which was what I was getting at mate and those two were joined in the midfield by N'zogbia and Solano, not Geremi and fucking Duff It was only a few weeks back you were telling us how much better Duff is than N'Zogbia.

Spider Jerusalem Posted October 26, 2008 Share Posted October 26, 2008 I remember the old gag about Scotland being class on paper but shit on grass. Think that this would sum up NUFC at the minute really. Big name players who are completley fucked and finished (Butt / Duff / Geremi), absolute dogshit (Smith / Viduka) or disinterested and want away at the first opportunity (NZogbia / Martins / Owen). Add to that the big buys (or freebies) that were brought in over the summer have no experience of this league, coming from what is acknowledged as a slower league in Spain, and have walked into a complete cluster-fuck minefield created by the fuck-witted club management.

The College Dropout Posted October 26, 2008 Share Posted October 26, 2008 I actually think Geremi will be very important this year. The man can deliver a good ball unlike the majority of the midfield. I'd keep him in the team and drop Duff/Charles for Jonas. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest aoliversaknob Posted October 26, 2008 Share Posted October 26, 2008 come off it man. He is one of the worst dead ball takers I have ever seen. The fact he is still allowed to take them simply shows how poor the squad is at present. Our midfield is very poor both attacking and defending. But no way near the the worst of the last 28 years.

Guest bertiemasson Posted October 27, 2008 Share Posted October 27, 2008 we had some real cack back in the very early 80s then after keegan left.....but think theu would have battled more than this lot of overpaid ++++ Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

merlin Posted October 27, 2008 Share Posted October 27, 2008 We were worse under Souness imo. And Dalglish. Like I said, in the context of not having everyone fit or fully fit, this is far from the best we've had since we got into this league. Our first choice squad with everyone fit and playing well is decent enough. Look at the results under Dalglish and compare them to this side's efforts - we were never relegation material under Dalglish. We certainly are now, whether people like it or not.

oldtype Posted October 27, 2008 Share Posted October 27, 2008 <2005-2006> Given Carr Boumsong Bramble Babayaro Solano Bowyer Parker N'Zogbia Shearer Owen <2006-2007> Given Solano Bramble Oneywu Babayaro Milner Butt Parker Duff Martins Sibierski <2007-2008> Given Beye Taylor Coloccini Enrique Jonas Butt Guthrie Duff Martins Owen Really, really hard to argue that we were better off under Souness or Roeder. When you look at it side by side, the improvement in some areas of the pitch, particularly the back line, is staggering. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agreed. I was shitting it that season. I remember the away game when we played down at WHL and after that game I thought we were in for it. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Teed Posted October 27, 2008 Share Posted October 27, 2008 I thought you actually made a better fist of it this year,last year we played you of the park for 80% of the game you only snatched a point through a flucked cross. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
