    Just watching this before I fly back to ponteland. That's class and the way he looked into the camera to thank fans really is impressive. Nowt worse than the big C with family, especially you kinds, my best mate just been though it at 2 years old for his kid. The worst.

    So glad the fans showed how good we can be here. That's great.

    Give it a rest man, how many people ever agree with anything you say.

    Various people recently, including some who are usually quite reserved, have told you how tedious and tiring you are. You're continually trying to drum up support against me like you're a nine year old. Now you're doing it with Tees who I've known personally for many years ... he's a good friend of mine.

    All you do is make yourself look worse than you see me ...

    ... take your own advice and stop derailing the thread.

    Top man. Emotional and he will be going through it. Well done to those in the crowd today for that, shows what we are about.

    He talked well about the game too. Thought he was spot on about team rotation and having to manage this week carefully. He sounds like a manager who has plotted to the end of the season and knows where he needs to get his points to achieve the target.

    No doubt one of the pundits will say Plymouth allowed him to run and he was lucky it went in off the post <laugh>

    Just back, Neil motm with 09 not far behind him.

    Dont know what was said half-time, but we blew them away second half, they couldn't live with us.

    Thought Ruysn had a good game, he makes some beautiful runs that create space.

    New left back looks solid and has slotted right in. Jobe back to his best and topped it with a lovely goal.

    A very good performance all round

    The opposite for me, Chunks . . . .
    Dan Neil had a very good game, but I think that Onions was m.o.t.m. without a doubt . . . . he was absolutely brilliant :emoticon-0148-yes:

    He won ever header, broke up play, drove us forward a few times.

    Biggest compliment from me is he made it look easy and was never in trouble

    Just home. Enjoyed that still get the feeling the players are working out how Beale wants to play but getting better every game. Think the players are starting to get Beale and think Beale is starting to get us Great response to conceding with three excellent goals I know I love the lad but Dan Neil was outstanding today

    Lovely moment on 4 minutes which was the highlight of the 1st half. Second half was much better, almost sublime in fact! I really like how Beales tweaked the midfield.

    Dan Neil is going right to the top and probably a lot quicker than anyone would of expected!

    I dunno, I don't count my likes like it means anything.....

    You started the derailment on page 16 by trying to call other posters out. As you've been doing repeatedly for several months now.

    Me saying I don't want to derail the thread doesn't mean you have a free reign to say what you like.

    You can answer, and get an answer back, for as long as you like, ping pong is no effort on my part - or you can accept that not everyone shares your opinion, which you make big noises about but simply do not do.

    Back home from the game. First half was crap but we really stepped up in the second, I think Ekwah getting that early equalizer helped. Not sure I would've moved Ba to accommodate Roberts but that doesn't really matter now. Grandson was absolutely buzzing after seeing 2 wins on the trot.

    On a separate topic and please forgive my ignorance but could anyone enlighten me on why there was 3 different times for clapping for a minute. I never heard anything about it previously

    Onein is a complete one off keep thinking we need another big centre half but every week onein stands up and delivers
    Don’t think you can underestimate what his presence on the pitch does for these young lads
