Gloom and Doom?

Like your positives. Take away the 20 minute period between 5 and 25 minutes, and as you say we've scored 2 and won away. BBC figures showed 58% of the possession, we must have done some bits at least not too bad if not well.
 
It's all so sadly predictable though Bobby. We are scratching around the transfer bargain basement yet again looking for gems that are not there for peanuts.

We should have had 3 or 4 game changing players already in and in the hunt for one last one this next 3 weeks. Instead we have been humped off a very average team and our recruitment plan looks shot go pieces. Piss poor planning IMO.

We got roughly the same result yesterday as Manure did last year (4-2 as opposed to their 5-3)
We won the second half 2-1
There are still 3 weeks in this transfer window.

And what a terrible result for them that was. Leicester were also beaten at home by West Brom and Palace, just to flip it.

We won the 2nd half because Leicester weren't as urgent as the first half, the game was over, they relaxed and we nicked a couple of goals.

3 Weeks to sign at least three first team signings who are better than what we have. It's a big ask and I can't see it happening, all I can do is hope.
 
Their's no way we'll go past sept 1 without reinforcements.. SAFC fans delivered Mrs A a nice bunch of flowers so the little General will deliver us some new signings! He has a proven track record and he won't let himself/us down.. I've had a couple bourbons I know but here's hoping anyhow <ok>

I can see dick walking in 3 weeks if Ellis doesn't dig deep with some cash.

He's been promised cash, I'm assuming that was a major factor in him doing his U-turn and signing for us. If Ellis goes back on his word and doesn't splash the cash then I wouldn't blame Advocaat one bit if he walked away and didn't look back. I would.

20 odd degrees, what a lucky bastard you are. It's really windy and **** here today, good day for putting the washing out I suppose, Hurray <doh>

We really need to be beating Norwich but more than that, we need a performance because right through pre-season and yesterday, we still haven't produced one and that worries me. There's no signs of us clicking and coming into form <ok>

I know I'm lucky mate <cheers> Shouldn't you have a Russian Sheila putting the washing out for you mate? <laugh> It's about time we make the SOL a fortress, the squad has everything in place to make this a reality.. Best fans in the world the Mackems! Plus a pisshead Aussie <nahnah>
 
Was on the Norwich forum the other day, they have a prediction league and 75% of em reckon we'll be relegated.. Would love to stuff em based on that!

And the Geordies! (me)

You are still on a promise remember... One day you get your Aussie backside over here or should we somehow do a pre-season over your place, I'm sure that 1 or 2 from this board would probably go over :emoticon-0150-hands

I know I wouldn't, My Mam was over there about 3 or 4 years ago now. Travelled all over in a camper van. She said you get to certain places in the outback and you can literally drive all day and not see a single person. I'll have to check the route she took, come back with some amazing pictures too. There's a couple of close family friends live out there and a long time school friend has gone out to live. Plenty of excuses for me to get out there <ok>




psssttt, What do I say to the other half about why I'm popping out and won't be home for a few weeks?
