Guest neesy111 Posted September 11, 2010 Share Posted September 11, 2010 I cannot believe that he brought on Lovenkrands ahead of Ben Arfa. Is he an imbecile or what? Picking his favourites tbh. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wallace Posted September 11, 2010 Share Posted September 11, 2010 We just didn't do the things we did so well in the last couple of games where we pressurised the opposition into making mistakes and providing options for the player with the ball. We could have scored a few on another day but we dithered with the ball in the goalmouth when we were in good positions and their defenders threw themselves at everything. Hopefully this serves as a wake up call like the Derby game did last season after the Cardiff. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mick Posted September 11, 2010 Share Posted September 11, 2010 Did anybody else think that we took an age to come out for the second half? I wonder if the players were voting on who would come off and when we'd make changes. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest BlacknWhiteArmy Posted September 11, 2010 Share Posted September 11, 2010 Really dissapointed with this one, still. Golden chance to get another 3 points on board, and we blew it. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

BlueStar Posted September 11, 2010 Share Posted September 11, 2010 Someone vented their frustration by kicking in the glass door of a bus when it stopped at the corner by oxfam. The driver responded by opening and shutting the door. Aye, that'll do the trick. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

thenige Posted September 11, 2010 Share Posted September 11, 2010 Okay I'm barely sure why I'm bothering to write this, but here goes. I didn't watch or attend a game (went to the emirates for a mates birthday, although felt like crying at HT/FT seeing the Toon score) but I can't believe the negativity I've read in this read (from the amount I could stomach). Last home game we won 6-0 and people are kicking off that we didn't start the same line-up? We all know Smith and Nolan are shocking, but they both have done okay this season so far and have earned their places in the side for this match. A 2-0 defeat at home to the so-called whipping boys of the division yeah is a bit of a horror show but we've got to put this into perspective. You can't just throw first-choice players out of the side after 50 odd games just because a couple of signings come in. Tiote, Ben Arfa and Campbell will all get their chance. We'll perform better than this and get points, and maybe even worse and sneak the odd one here and there. Let's not go into doom and gloom overdrive and demand Hughton/Ashley/Nolan/Harper/Williamson/Jesus out as we seem to be. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

At the end of the day, you can't expect to progress as a club, especially as a newly promoted one if you want to just stick by the players that got you there. You need to be ruthless, just like Keegan was when we were last promoted. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Liam Liam Liam O Posted September 11, 2010 Share Posted September 11, 2010 After the first game of the season I'd have taken 4 points by this time of the season. Stupid statement. At lunchtime today I'd have been furious with that. We'll get relegated if we think one good result allows us to have a bad one.

Guest neesy111 Posted September 11, 2010 Share Posted September 11, 2010 The big thing is will Hughton see what has gone wrong today, and make decisions to rectify why we lost. If he does, then that's a positive for rest of the season (i.e. dropping smith and nolan). If he doesn't then my doubts about Hughton being a manager that can keep us up will only go up in their percentage points. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thespence Posted September 11, 2010 Share Posted September 11, 2010 Forget Smith & Nolan mpst of us have sussed there limitions so it seems pointless to bleat on about them but Joey Barton who is vastly overated mainly by himself but today as a attacking force he was nowhere near C.Adam. CH big mistake today was giving a Blackpool team a style play most of them are used to playing a long ball to target men & central midfielders who run around giving 100%, should of started the two new boys & told the team "go out & play football". Routledge had the beating of his man why he stoped running at there left back & we didnt feed him the ball a stack was baffling. Jonas before he went off poping up in every postion but left wing seemed like he had lost the plot. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
brummie Posted September 11, 2010 Share Posted September 11, 2010 It must be disappointing, but it is only one game. You won your previous home game 6-0. There's as much reason to base your expectations of the rest of the season on that as there is on today's result Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

If we had to have had the two results that we've had at home so far I would have preferred to have had them the other way around. We can't afford to gift teams 3 points when we'll probably be competing with them for league position at the end of the season. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
