I want to agree but Nuno’s a pretty competent long term thinking manager. I hope they face a four game losing streak but the spawny fuckers went to OT and pulled something out. Season is mental.  

Went to Anfield and won too. A much more impressive feat.

Superb head loss


AFTV are trigger happy. The fact they got rid of Wenger has inflated their egos to the level that they think they can do anything. 
 

love their little podcasts and pre game things but match reactions, they’re clowns.

Arsenal fans are going through it this season man.

 

Man City finally fall off and they've chosen this year to drop off too, with Liverpool and Chelsea looking to take advantage instead.

 

No surprise they are losing their minds completely.

I mean if we won even one more match than we have, we'd have been fifth before this match kicked off. :lol:

 

Everyone shit/inconsistent this season giving us a golden opportunity to not be, yet here we are. It feels like this season is perfectly poised for us. I hope we get some consistency going sooner rather than later.

 

Whilst I understand and "get" this opinion and te thought process behind it, I believe we (the collective NUFC fandom) are so used to being a part of the "shit" PL teams that we don't realize that we are one of the big teams that are having a shit/inconsistent season - thus giving the shit teams a golden opportunity. This season isn't actually "perfectly poised for us", because we are no longer a team who'd make headlines if we finished the season in the top four. It'd not even be headline news if we mounted a title challenge, it'd be us doing what everyone else has been expecting us to do after the takeover.

 

Whilst I love Howe and, on principle, oppose kneejerk manager sackings - I'm genuinely baffled by the lack of media scrutiny directed at Howe for failing to meet the media's pre-season expectations for us. We, the fans, know the details of why we're not doing as well as people expected us to do post-takeover - but the media pundits that cover the "entire" league and aren't specifically following us, do not. My only explanation for the lack of media scrutiny/pressure being piled onto Howe is the fact that he's English, and the pundits avoid going after "one of their own" until the writing's on the wall. If Howe was a filthy foreigner, we'd 100% see tons of coverage raising questions about the NUFC owners/admins as to why we don't just sack the manager as the team underperforming expectations is his responsibility, all the while avoiding to mention the fact the manager can't strengthen the team because of the idiotic new PL financial rules :lol:

Went to Bradford/Swindon today. 1-0 Bradford. Fairly drab game. Scoreline fair. Swindon created nothing. Good crowd for League 2 though, just under 16K. Curry before game was incredible.


Wew, deeks at Adrian Mole here 

 

You fingerblasted Pandora yet or what ?

We absolutely have not earned this yet. We're a mid table team that didn't strengthen and are currently being left behind. We fortunately have the muscle (cash) to catch up and make up for inaction. All we've got to show for the takeover is a League Cup final loss.

I mean, I felt I covered that quite well in my post - but apparently I couldn't have given this response :lol: 

 

We know. They don't.

 

We don't decide what others think of us, and others see owners with a combined net worth higher than the other 19 PL team owners, combined! Of course people that don't follow us in as much detail as we do will have preconceived expectations and opinions about us based on nothing but headlines.
