Match Day Thread Toon v Bindippers

Everyone should... We've had a good run, won a cup and ruffled a few feathers, but the pain is coming again and it might last years.

 

Think you’re spot on mate, but there lies the problem, We would have snatched your hand off for a point before the game and at 90 mins when they held up 11 mins we’d have been delighted with the point even if it had been 2 banks of 5 for the last 10 mins.

As the old saying goes - if you can’t win, don’t lose.

 

Had we lost two games without scoring, without showing passion, without energy; then I’d worry, fact is we’ve got a point from the first 2 games of 38 and there’s absolutely no conclusion can be got from that other than “we’ve got a point from our opening two games”

 

I’m glad you’re in no decision making position Roly!

 

Two good performances but we have to beat Leeds otherwise it's a poor start to the season.

 

Like I say there's nothing wrong with looking at the positives in defeat, but you can also look at the negatives.

We can say we lacked discipline, failed to capitalise on villas red card etc etc.

It's early, there's a good case for both sides, but if we lose at Leeds I think it'll be hard to keep pointing at postitives in defeats.. We need wins not huff and puff awards.

 

It is though mate. We were always going to have bad times again at some point. The downs coming, but there's going to be ups.

 

Good post.

 

4 pts from Villa, Pool n Leeds would be decent

 

At least we won a cup..Villa and Everton are seething.

 

Losing 2 of our cms is a bad situation... We haven't even had the draw for the champions league and we're already down to the bare bones.

Lost our best asset which is midfield.

Hugely significant.

 

Can’t quite remember our back 5 in the cup final or getting a clean sheet just last week at Villa. Anyone remind me

 

Sometimes I wonder whether some of you miserable ****s have ever paid money to watch NUFC

There’s a positive nuance to people that have done so.

There’s a hope and an acceptance of fate and sporting chance.

It’s the type of fans that Paddy Power so effectively ridicule that I sometimes hear on here.

Isak’s a ****
NUFC is beautiful
Liverpool’s a ****
There’s 38 games in a season, ya ****s

 

And Barnes? I've never seen a more depressed looking player.. Gordons out 3 games so our fwd lime is looking crapper and crapper by the day

 

We conceded 3 today and they only needed about 3 chances to get at the defence.

We are going to dine out on the cup final in every defeat aren't we.

 

Wasn’t that VVD waving an imaginary card yet not getting booked there too?

 

It's not our fault Newcastle lost.

 

We only won the league cup 5 months ago, we've been hardly dining out on it

 

And last week at Villa? Get a grip. Botman isn’t fully fit if he ever will be and Thiaw has just arrived.
