Maybe anyone with kneejerkitis may now wish to give people time. Excellent performance. Unlucky to go behind. Right tactics and good, timely substitutions. Ideal result. The nature of the beast means it’s not going to work every time but for all the whinging and whining we aren’t badly placed at the moment.
I don’t think many were whinging and whining. A question mark over whether Howe would get it right. And he did. So all in all a good day at the office.
Saying Howe had to go isn’t “a question mark”, it was clearly whinging and whining given the position in the season and the prevailing situation. But agreed, today was a good day.
I think this was our best performance of the season. Eddie got it spot on. I questioned him at half time and he answered perfectly so credit when it’s due:
Yes. I pretended to be Longstaff but he had already done 35 laps of the pitch and I rocked up in a pair of sandals. btw have I said that Longstaff is the best player on the earth right now?
You said Chris Wood was the best player on the planet a few hours ago. Longstaff wasn't even our best player today.
That was tongue in cheek. Longstaff makes the world go round. We have to admit it. We are a better team when he plays.
Good win today. I see the soft trees have bent again. I stand tall, like an oak. Need a new manager, but he will last til the end of the season. Happy for his wife, sure she doesn't want to organise a move. If we win a trophy, build Howe a statue, but I expect to see videos of Trev ****ing at the foot of it
