Burton Albion 1 - 2 Newcastle United - 17/12/16 Post match reaction from page 8


Recommended Posts

Just noticed the attendance: 6,665! Going to seem unreal for their players at SJP.

 

My little Asperger is really angry at that one guy who decided not to go. :lol:

 

:smitten:

 

It's so untidy and disorganised, right? :lol: Just pressgang someone in there to make the number right. :lol: Drag someone in and give him a pie or something.

It's because midstoon had the flu, you see...

With you, mate. All for a bit of symmetry. Maybe, the little Aspeger of a jobs worth Health & Safety Officer would go into meltdown if another bod turned-up though.

(Just realised. That only makes any kind of sense if they were full... :embarrassed:, I blame excessive Xmas grog)

These matches are almost like those dodgy 3rd ties in the cup. They were a big side too, you need strength and character to battle through these matches to go with turning it on in matches like the 4-0 against Brum.

 

Yeah, most people thought yesterday was going to be difficult and so it turned out. Therefore another very good 3 points.

Winning these games is massive compared to where we used to be.

 

Lower division so it is relative, but for so long we would just turn up to these games with the expectation of 3 points, with no expectation of having to work for it, and thus got a right surprise when the opposition had a go.

 

Rafa has got us doing the job that needs to be done. Not often pretty, but pretty wins beauty contests not football games.

Definitely. Burton might only have a 6k capacity stadium, but on the pitch they've been good especially at home where they'd only conceded 7 all season before yesterday. Was always going to be tough, it certainly was, and we didn't help ourselves with a series of basic errors handing them the initiative at times. Luckily Gayle and Diame kept their bottle, took their chances and it was a good 3 points to come away with.

 

Nigel Clough has bleated on about a penalty they should have had in the 94th minute but I don't recall any incident or any big shouts from their players, anyone else recall this?!?

we should have had one when clark nearly has his shirt almost completely pulled off him.

Thought Jackson Irvine for them looked a decent player, didn't realise he was an Aussie. One of the Burton fans in the pub before the match said he was their best player and he looked good - needs a hair cut mind.
