TheGuv Posted January 7, 2023 Share Posted January 7, 2023 So glad we have a game on Tuesday to get this out of our system. Huge next 2 games for us tbh, as without being melodramatic, they could make or break (if they go badly…) our season. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bizza Posted January 7, 2023 Share Posted January 7, 2023 Still boiling about the lack of VAR because we were at a lower league ground, if that game had been at St James their first goal never would've stood. It's bollocks that VAR gets used in some games but not others, either everyone should have it or no one. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Huge next 2 games for us tbh, as without being melodramatic, they could make or break (if they go badly…) our season. That game on Tuesday is hardly one to get this one out of our system. It's actually the reason why we are out of probably a bigger cup competition. There's even more pressure to win that one now, but these are the decisions you have to make, and it's a juggling act.

KaKa Posted January 7, 2023 Share Posted January 7, 2023 (edited) Our squad is so awful man. We're going to have some absolutely stinking results at points this season. We would all love to start challenging for things and having cup runs, but that can wait another year. We're doing too well in the league and securing a European place this season has to be the priority right now. That is going to open up a lot more opportunities in the transfer market over the summer for us to really then have a better go of things next season.

TRon Posted January 7, 2023 Share Posted January 7, 2023 One thing which might be getting overlooked as well, Sheff W were a pretty impressive outfit for a third divison outfit. After the first 5 mins I'm not going to lie, I was worried. They pressured us all over the pitch, got us missing passes, then attacked with intent when they got the ball. Even more galling, their lad up front Windass, looked far more dangerous than anything we had once Isak went off. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

gbandit Posted January 7, 2023 Share Posted January 7, 2023 8 minutes ago, joeyt said: Penny for Joelinton's thoughts after another gut-busting run to put it on a tee for him That run and then the weight of the pass couldn’t have put it more on a plate for Wood. The fact that Wood didn’t lift it just over the bar but completely skied it under zero pressure is ridiculous. He has one main job, he can’t dribble, he’s not great in the air, his movement is static, his link up play is very poor. The one thing he absolutely has to do is strike a ball well and he still fucked it up Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Whitley mag Posted January 7, 2023 Share Posted January 7, 2023 Our squad is shite like the Ashley years still linger with these daft contracts for mediocre shite. Compare this to the likes of Brighton today with young players and years of good recruitment. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

He was offside. So was Wednesday’s opener. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
BennyBlanco Posted January 7, 2023 Share Posted January 7, 2023 21 minutes ago, TRon said: Not really. We were chronically weak in front of goal when Wilson was missing prior to this season. Almiron's burst of goals has masked a lot of history. Even last season signing Trippier with his dead ball contributions gave us a massive boost in that department. We don't really have that many natural goal scorers in the side, although hopefully Isak returning to fitness will change that. I’d argue that Isak isn’t a natural goalscorer. His stats don’t say that anyway. 1 in 4 at best. Can’t wait for Wilson to get back. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Super Duper Branko Strupar Posted January 7, 2023 Share Posted January 7, 2023 (edited) Worst thing about going out early in the FA Cup is the number of weekends where there's no Newcastle game to watch. At least the League Cup is mostly wid-week. Edited January 7, 2023 by Super Duper Branko Strupar Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
