What? I can’t understand your post. We were exactly how we have been for 3 months - and for 10’years+ before that - profligate in front of goal, lacking killer instinct and passes, and very weak with squad depth. There were moments of quality, fleeting, and the team are playing for the manager but someone has to carry the cab for what’s been a poor recruitment strategy thus far.
Can I recommend you watch newcastle vs Brighton under Steve Bruce and the previous ownership and compare it to the 10 man performance vs yes LIVERPOOL we've just watched tonight please?
How often has Pope been sent off in his career and how many games has he played in his career? Would have been slaughtered by everyone for dropping Pope if we had lost due to a blunder by Dubs? Ever thought hindsight is a great help in making decisions?
Seriously it's like people think Liverpool and suddenly turned into cannon fodder .. they had big players back tonight too btw. I mean ffs Roland
All these are factors you can draw into makeing a decision... What im saying is matter of fact .. if he'd picked dubs we wouldn't have this situation. The answer the question was yes ... this situation was avoidable..... am I in howes ass? No of course not .
I wouldn't say it is bottling, no one expected us to finish top 4, at the beginning of the season. We didn't even play that bad even with 10 men tbh. I would be content with 6-8th place finish this season and look to strengthen the squad in the summer, building on our progress and moving forward.
People moved the goalposts at Xmas for some reason.... now only maintaining the pre Xmas form is good enough for this lot. Its year ONE of a five to ten year plan... Jesus Christ It couldn't be going much better
which would mean the appeal would be heard in record time plus an extra game added to the ban for a frivolous appeal.
