    Just a touch. You can't help people like Chaos, they are just the same old emotional wrecks we get every pre season.

    Mate you are following the classic head for the Tyne Bridge mentality. Yeah you always say we are **** (we always are in terms of being a top 10 side), but you've ramped up a level with failed takeover etc. I find it hilarious our fans do this every year. Meltdown central on here. Surefire that yourself, Roland plus a few others will be massively over the top. Its good, it shows people are still invested and care.

    This has to be one of the poorest squad of players that I can remember. What worries me also is Bruce is about to enter his second season, like a musician and that difficult second album, we are about to see his mettle. Historically this has never gone well for him!

    Is there a worse manager in the league?

    I really don't think there is, so it's hardly being overly negative when you look at the squad as it is today and our managers track record.

    Tim Krul came second in the keepers saves stats and they were relegated,if the 10 players in front of you are ****e/not doing their job it stands to reason you are going to be called on to make saves and you're bound to save some of them hence the high count,just my opinion mind.

    Don't know but if you allow 20 shots against you a game you're bound to have good stats:cheesy:

    Nope because the fact is Dubravka got 11 clean sheets despite taking 30 more shots than any other keeper...

    Those clean sheets get you points

    Krul only got 5 and faced less shots

    Indeed its the big problem when people come armed with stats. Football isn't played in a book or spreadsheet. Once you give statistics context, things change. Best off just using your eyes and using stats to help confirm what you are seeing.

    Team sport, always has been. Indeed football is very much a squad game now because of the money.

    I agree about that mate.... If we had a better defence dubs stats would be far less obvious an indicator.

    Warmbags eyes are so good he can't even see what's happening with the assistance of mathematics and my guidance
