OCK Posted May 11 Share Posted May 11 Sunny weather and the last home game of the season. The summer might actually be happening. Going to be that 40 year old man wearing shorts and t-shirts to the football today. Don't even care. Show off all my faded tattoos. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

(Off in search of Tippex). Last day of the season. Jonas back in town. 100 years to the day since Milburn was born. 18 years ago to the day Shearer's testimonial. Hottest day of the year so far. What a day to play football. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Joelinton, Pope & Tripps start, I think we could see a really good performance. Not sure Brighton have the stomach for it atm. Still I'm a curse so put on 1-1, 2-2 & 3-3. (will be another 4-4 - yes I was there for that one as well) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
LiquidAK Posted May 11 Share Posted May 11 All ifs, but there's a decent possibility we win this, Man Utd lose to Arsenal, and we're 6 points clear of them with 2 games left each, but with a much better goal difference. Would be nice go to Old Trafford knowing that even if we lose they still can't realistically catch us (and with the freedom that gives us we'll obviously smash those cunts anyway).

It'd only be 5 ahead. We'd only need a point even if we lost there though looking at gd. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I knew maths wasn't my strong point but that's fairly damning. I really stared at the table and thought 2 + 3 = 6 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Optimistic Nut Posted May 11 Share Posted May 11 Remember the last time we won easily with a 4-4-2 (West Ham away with Carroll and Wilson up front...debut goal and assist for Hendrick ). Bruce went "same again, lads" next game v Brighton at home, and Lamptey absolutely ruined us. Interesting to see if it's 4-4-2 again or if we match up a bit more.

Last twice we done that was the spurs game last season and a decent win this again (can’t remember which now) I also channelled my inner Ashworth when we smashed Spurs last time.

Also 27 years since we hammered Forest 5-0 to secure CL whilst the mackems and Boro went down. 1 day off it being 40 years to the day since Keegan's last competitive appearance for us in the last home game of the season against Brighton.

Optimistic Nut Posted May 11 Share Posted May 11 I'd be going Barnes for Wilson in this one going back to 4-3-3/4-5-1, keep Livramento in, keep Miggy, Trippier, Joelinton etc on the bench with Wilson. Then unleash hell on Wednesday. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Checko Posted May 11 Share Posted May 11 Last year we switched scheme a little & played Big Jow as a pressing No 10, wonder if we'll do anything like that - I guess Jow won't start due to injury comeback but could have something like Barnes, Gordon, Murphy behond Isak, or maybe even Anderson pushed up to press more.

Coffee_Johnny Posted May 11 Share Posted May 11 Foolishly got rid of streaming kit (as but the bullet paid for Sky & TNT). Can’t seem to pick-up Radio Newcastle here (Warrington).
