Wonder if I/we'll ever learn to just enjoy it like I/we did under Keegan, like holding us at bay makes it interesting even entertaining (until the hour mark) and a goal/win is inevitable. At the start of the season we were wasteful in front of goal (Wolves, Palace, Bournemouth and even Forest). We then a hit spell where we were extremely clinic (Fulham through to Leicester) and outperformed our xG. These things usually balance out over the course of a season.

Sitting in the middle of the East stand; first time since Jack Charlton season. Brilliant view, and you get a much better atmosphere, largely because you can hear the Gallowgate corner, unlike when sitting in the Leazes when all you can hear is the away fans. Im not sure whether we have played better all season. I thought we were brilliant, and never felt nervous about the outcome. Ive read this thread and it seemed like some on here were watching a different game to me, apparently Burn was poor, as was Shar and Wilson, absolute twaddle. Schar won absolutely everything in the air and played some class cross field diagonal passes. Burn was an absolute monster all game! I think he overcommitted a couple of times and left us open down the flank but he's not a bloody robot, and he's not a left back either so what do people expect. Some people watch the matches through shit-tinted specs? Baffling! Edited January 11, 2023 by Holmesy Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gallowgate Toon Posted January 11, 2023 Share Posted January 11, 2023 Schar was definitely caught out once or twice but it's just more noticeable because we give very little away during most games now. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
gbandit Posted January 11, 2023 Share Posted January 11, 2023 We dominated that match in the way we’ve been dominated by top four sides under Ashley, where we used to go into a match expecting little and still coming out disappointed. Spending the match starved of the ball, providing no threat, getting one or two chances but having to take them as you wouldn’t get any others. We’re consistently bullying teams and it’s amazing Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also there, but behind goal in Leazes (few seats from where my first season ticket was). Loved it. Good atmosphere, scarf twirling after goals was fab. Just wish the feckers had scored one of the first half chances right in front of me! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kid Icarus Posted January 11, 2023 Share Posted January 11, 2023 I'm starting to find that I enjoy the match much more on second viewing. The tension watching it at the time often blinds you to how good the football actually was. You watch it again and our performance is often 10x better than you remember at the time.

BergenMagpie Posted January 11, 2023 Share Posted January 11, 2023 If someone told me two years ago that someday I'd get a semi watching Dan Burn and Joelinton overlapping each other on the left wing, I'd probably stop watching football all together in fear of being brainwashed by MA and Bruce Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cronky Posted January 11, 2023 Share Posted January 11, 2023 This team is totally fearless. An easy draw in the semis would be nice, but wouldn't it be great to take down both the Manchester clubs? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Geogaddi Posted January 11, 2023 Share Posted January 11, 2023 All I ask for the semi draw is we avoid Man City, nothing to split us and Man United, could come down to the atmosphere in each home game and we know ours will be far better than theirs would be.

joeyt Posted January 11, 2023 Share Posted January 11, 2023 The fact we've got two centre backs who can ping the ball to the opposite flank so easily and effectively is such a huge weapon Most teams would be able to target one of the opposition's back line for not being great on the ball but they can;t do that with our current 4 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
