NUFCDoog Posted January 4 Share Posted January 4 Feel physically sick about this match the closer it gets. Been worried for weeks, I'm a natural pessimist at the best of times but the way things have been going I can't see anything other than a defeat and it's going to be fucking horrible. Just hope we can get ourselves up for it, there were sparks against Liverpool, but in all reality if they took their chances it would jave been at least 6 nil and we'd be looking at this even more downbeat. They're not amazing but have beaten some good sides at home this season, and like it or not they are one of the one of the better sides in the Championship. We're obviously a better team than them, but that's been true so many times over the past 10 years and it's not gone our way. Will be a complete season ruiner for me this, won't be half as interested for a few weeks. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Begbie Posted January 4 Share Posted January 4 I hope that we rest our first team players. Hope to see Ritchie, Dummet, Kraft and some youngsters getting game time. We really dont need any more injuries to our squad now, and I dont trust this lower league team.. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can't recall them ever being in their away kit at our place, or us ever being in our home kit at theirs. Only exception I can think of is the 1-4 at their place when Shearer scored with his head bandaged up. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

But I think we wore the hi-viz kit when Cabaye scored and Tiote got sent off in a 1-1 there. They scored late off Gyan/Bent's arse. Lucky as fuck deflection. Colo red card we wore our blue away kit, I think? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Obviously I’m not going to watch it to check. We were in some awful thing when we lost 3-0 and Collo got sent off. Fucked that one right off and got a bus back to Shields at 2-0.

Chris_R Posted January 4 Share Posted January 4 (edited) All these kit comments contradicting my memories just reinforcing how drunk I have to get just to sit through these matches, and how successfully I've since managed to blank any remnants of them from my mind.

craigmadge Posted January 4 Share Posted January 4 I think what makes this worse is that over the past 18 months we have gone into high profile games without expectation. We have always been optimistic and it’s paid off. This time however there is huge expectation to win due to the gap between the two clubs. Finally the fans know we should win and we must win. this along with the fact that there won’t be a chance for revenge for who knows how long piles pressure on aswell we must believe that none of their players get into our team. We must believe we are experienced and professional enough to get the job done. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
