Whitley mag Posted January 30, 2023 Share Posted January 30, 2023 Nervous for this don’t think it’s going to be straight forward, think we’ve got enough fire power to get it done in the end though. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scoot Posted January 30, 2023 Share Posted January 30, 2023 Just took Wednesday off work so I can have a few tomorrow night. Pretty nervous about it now. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nobody Posted January 30, 2023 Share Posted January 30, 2023 Didn't realise just how short the odds on us to go through are, bloody hell 1/25, or a 96% probability that we're in the final. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
GeordieYorkie Posted January 30, 2023 Share Posted January 30, 2023 Glad I'm in work tomorrow, the only negative is I'll be able to see SJP all day long and it will do nothing from keeping my mind off the game! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Of course they are. Southampton have no chance 1) against us and 2) already one nil down. Everyone has to be feigning that they're nervous, right? Like there's no way it's real that people are actually nervous? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm only in my early thirties and no doubt the old timers on here will have more experience of it than me, but that kick in the teeth, punch in the stomach, wrecking ball in the nads that NUFC can provide by snatching defeat from the jaws of almost certain victory is downright incredible. Frankly I'd be worried if we were 5-0 up from the first leg and playing Southampton Women's U18s. Yes, new era, new owners, Eddie, all that... but as I think Glenn Roeder said during his stint as manager, failure is almost stitched into our badge.

The Fountain Posted January 30, 2023 Share Posted January 30, 2023 With Pope and our back four you'd think it'd be impossible to balls this up. Southampton will come at as early imo and leave gaps for us to penetrate. Just hope the finishing is better than last Tuesday. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

If ever we needed an early goal in a game it's this one. If it stays at 0-0 well into the 2nd half the tension will be unbareable knowing they just need a goal to take ir to pens.

Without wanting to sound like the grim reaper it only takes a daft red card and the match is turned on it’s head. This is my main fear there seemed to be quite a bit of needle at the end of the 1st leg. Still think we’ll go through but I’ll be amazed if it’s a formality, they’re also 1 game from Wembley and will throw the kitchen sink at it which makes them dangerous.

Or a daft free kick on the edge of the box ripe for JWP. I'm expecting a nervy night. Hope the crowd are up for it and don't just wave their scarves before the match then sit in silence.

Even in the Keegan years we fucked up situations like this. 20 years next month. We, and football, are a much different kettle of fish now compared to any KK/SBR type days. And we've only lost 7 matches total since the loss to Cambridge on Jan 8th, 2022. I just feel like people keep saying that they're nervous to try and show how much they care or some sort of reverse jinx thing. We don't need it. We're a vastly better squad only heading in one direction while they're headed in the opposite and we're starting the match, at home, with a one goal advantage. Of course the odds of us getting to the final are around that 95% mark. Edited January 30, 2023 by cubaricho Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Think the only one that rivals it is Man Utd in 96. Obviously wasn’t quite as do or die, but I think everyone felt in we won, that would probably be the title. Suppose Marseille in 04 as well, but with it being the first leg it wasn’t quite the same Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Last time I can remember having a proper shock was Partizan Belgrade. Feel queasy thinking about it. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
SiLvOR Posted January 30, 2023 Share Posted January 30, 2023 Like the first leg, it hasn't quite hit me yet. But as soon as I start watching, I'll be bricking it. To get to Wembley just over a year into our new era would be so fucking class. I don't think that's gonna be lost on the staff or players. We'll be bang up for this, and who the fuck should we fear at home? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
