Learned a lot yesterday, mainly that if you drink from 11-9 then have a pizza and a fish and chips you will have a **** nights sleep and feel like you dying.
I learned that drinking pints of Lager followed by pints of Guinness and a chow mein on the walk home proper knackers your guts the next morning
I rewatched the game on Sky last night and have watched the highlights this morning. Still not sure if I believe yesterday happened
As well as a terrific victory I have to say I really enjoyed the way the players celebrated the goals. A lot of individual congratulations allowing the crowd to see the player and the player to see the crowd. Especially good for Rigg to have that moment of interaction with fans. Can't stand the premiership type of all players in a set stationary huddle for the love in with each other - where eg Rigg would have just been buried and smothered.
Aye he won’t forget yesterday that’s for sure. Bennette with the award for the most ridiculous assist of the season too. Morale seems to be really high throughout the squad, can’t wait to see what the new lads can bring to the table
There was almost an innocence to it, a bit like having a kick about with your mates and just having a good time. No pressure. Long may it continue
At least we know the ones who had the melt down so can put them straight on ignore or wait a little longer forGordon to sack them off altogether
**** me there would hardly be any posters left . Most had a bit of a meltdown when it was being said looked like the best players will be gone, me included. I think we needed this window though. Its the first time we have had bids come in for several players and the club has only allowed those to leave that don't want to be here or they are no longer in first team plans! Should give us all a bit of confidence next time that we won't sell at first sight of an offer (doubt it like). But we didn't really know that until this window.
Anyone at the match notice half the players running over to Bennette when Rigg scored and celebrating the assist with him. Sky didn't show it but I thought it was a great touch and shows the camaraderie in our side.
Think there were some bits that were missed yesterday like when Hume made that tackle in the first half and then pumps his fist and screams at the crowd with passion and delight. Makes my day seeing that kind of commitment to his team. And if I am honest can't stop watching highlights especially Riggs goal that just made me smile all of yesterday and this morning
If I was clever I’d put that assist on repeat as a screen saver. Yes , great win important, but the knock on effect could be immense - they must now know that they need fear no one
Ekwah said just that when interviewed by Sky after the match, “like playing in the garden with my mates kicking the ball about”
But last season they were brilliant one match and then down the next, I think that’s with being young lads they can’t quite believe how good the team really is, so end up being inconsistent.
Literally just watched that and I live that mentality. ‘We are enjoying it’. The new lads have rocked up on a sunny day, 41k I’d say the atmosphere was ‘nice’ rather than boisterous yesterday, probs due to the quick early goals, they’ve seen a 5-0 and seen subs make an impact. They’ll be thinking ‘fancy a bit of this like’
With the Stewart situation and the click bait generating rumours of discontent I think a lot of fans thought oh bugger here we go again. But we are a very different club these days other clubs are looking at us and coveting our players that’s not a negative it’s a massive positive Great weekend for everyone associated with the club. They stuck to their guns with the transfer model and TM and the players have got the win our performances deserved And a great shot in the arm for us supporters There will be loads of ups and downs but what a bloody weekend.
