HaydnNUFC Posted November 9, 2022 Share Posted November 9, 2022 Gillingham, MK Dons, Lincoln, or Charlton at home please. Especially as the next round is likely on me birthday. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
SteV Posted November 9, 2022 Share Posted November 9, 2022 Sounds ridiculous, but getting Man City at home in the next round maybe wouldn’t be the worst thing. Chances are you’re going to have to beat them at some point if you want to win it, so you’ve got a much better chance of doing that at home, than at Wembley. Also the fact that the vast majority of their squad will have been at the WC and some only back shortly before the game, would be another advantage.

Disco Posted November 9, 2022 Share Posted November 9, 2022 You’ve got absolutely no idea what state anyone would be in for the next round RE: player availability but you’d be mad not to want to Charlton, Franchise or Gillingham at home. Full house, next to no away fans. Job should be a good un even without anyone at the WC. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheGuv Posted November 9, 2022 Share Posted November 9, 2022 Poor game. Made worse by missing most of the penalties because some absolute scum bag tried to fight me and my dad and then tried to bite my dad. Absolute scum and I’ve reported him. Turns out lots of similar reports made in the ground to stewards today… Not acceptable. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Prophet Posted November 9, 2022 Share Posted November 9, 2022 It does sound like the "lads, bags, slags" brigade make match day a chor for others these days. I hope you and your dad are alright. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anderson a non-event too although we didn't play down the right too much. Most of the others put a canny shift in, it just lacked quality and you could see a lot of them were rusty. Tripps and Bruno really lifted it when they were introduced and what a hero Pope is for getting us through the tie. A year or two ago we lose that tie 0-1, absolutely nailed on. It's pleasing that if we aren't firing going forwards we look absolutely comfortable as fuck at the back even with the changes we made. Shelvey was as bad as the ones mentioned like. Shout out to lascelles though he looked comfortable and was the better out of him and Burn Have took me 6 year old lassie to 3 competitive games and we are yet to score in open play Burnley (lost on pens) Cambridge And tonight Shes not gan again Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lush Vlad Posted November 9, 2022 Share Posted November 9, 2022 Lincoln, MK Dons, Charlton, Wolves, Leicester or Forest away and I will try and go. A home tie against someone like Gillingham would be ideal, though. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Adam Posted November 9, 2022 Share Posted November 9, 2022 Just got home, not the greatest game I've ever watch but still seen far worse NUFC performances. Lots of players with little pitch time, who haven't played together, we didn't create much but it wasn't terrible. Obviously changed when we made the subs, probably should have won it in normal time. Pens was a bit tense but Nick Pope is fucking class. Certainly different crowd in from regular league games, lots of people moaning when someone didn't shoot from 40 yards or we kept the ball rather than force it.

Wilson Posted November 9, 2022 Share Posted November 9, 2022 Watching Manky, Lascelles and Shelvey try to play it about like Trippier, Schar and Bruno was fucking painful like. We got the outcome we wanted but it really was a hard watch for the first hour. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aye we were a bit rubbish for a lot of tonight but Palace took the piss. Came up for the penalties and barely knew how to take one. Those Pope saves instantly go into some of the best personal memories for me at the ground: 25 ago this week my dad and I were there for a LC tie against Blackburn, which we lost on pens, so a brilliant bit of redemption for us there. Thought pretty much everyone had a sub-par game but thought Joelinton was probably the pick of the bunch. Manquillo and Targett were shite and I'm sick to fucking death of Shelvey. Really hope he doesn't stroll back into the team. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

They had their two 5 or 6 year old kids with them and the majority around us in that part of the Gallowgate were kids and parents. Sometimes cup games do seem to attract some strange ones like. Was humming and harring about reporting it. But thought, nah f*** it. When I reported it to the supervisor, she was telling me another bloke, during penalties was nutted by a kid whilst the kid’s dad held him back. Seriously man, wtf?

STM Posted November 9, 2022 Share Posted November 9, 2022 Just got back. Thoughts: The game was exactly as I expected. There's a reason why i asked about pens in the pre match thread. Botmans passing between the lines is unreal. Burn was our best player first half which tells a story. Anderson isn't ready. He should be loaned out in January. Manquillo, Wood and Targett showed the areas where we still lacked depth. Shelvey was fine at passing the ball around where he lacks compared to Bruno is the movement to get back on the ball. Lascelles hates the football. Pope is mint. Couldn't really give a fuck about the performance. Good draw in the next round please. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mind I was absolutely certain we’d lose on pens. Only one I can remember us winning was Watford in the mid 00’s. Would turn my Apple Watch off if we got to a pen shootout in a final. Heart rate would be horrifically high. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, unfortunately cup games do seem to attract a larger amount of these type of clowns. I seem to remember our Thursday night Europa games being particularly bad for it *compared to your average league game. Not implying all cup games are frequently by loads and loads of idiots off their nut on whatever. Just seem to be enough to make them more noticeable.
