Happy Face 29 Posted August 23, 2010 Share Posted August 23, 2010 Encourages too many part timers to give it a miss if it's raining. And what about those who can't get to every match, Brains of Britain? Talking to a few lads after the match and nobody had a clue about the members or season ticket only change to level 7. Emptiest I've seen in there, congrats fatty, you've lost yourself a few grand there haven't you? Was going to pay on the day this year as I'll probably miss about five games this year due to my shifts. Found out about the membership scheme and just bit the bit the bullet and got the season ticket which was probably the clubs real intention in the first place. When you add the fact that they've only been taking half allocations for away games then you see the contempt these cunts hold us in. It was tongue in cheek like. I've slated them for this decision a few times on here. Apologies, mate. No problem. I should really try harder to actually be funny if I'm going to joke Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Tuco Ramirez Posted August 23, 2010 Share Posted August 23, 2010 What about the half-time entertainment? Are you telling me someone's had a think about what they could do and they came up with that? I.e. getting some young kids to dribble the ball and shoot past one of those shit magpie mascots. I'd like to have been at that brainstorming session. Better than the 80s though (I'm never in the stands at ht tbh), but I remember the OB used to have alsations chasing robbers on the pitch, one time I mind one had a shite, and Kevin Scott fell in it.

Guest Tuco Ramirez Posted August 23, 2010 Share Posted August 23, 2010 Cant remember where i read it but someone said he looked great cutting inside on to his left foot until he realised he didnt have the confidence to use it. One of his runs went from right to left and he couldnt turn in he just ran in a straight line across the pitch. Still he was very good, should've score though.

One of his runs went from right to left and he couldnt turn in he just ran in a straight line across the pitch. Still he was very good, should've score though. At least have tested Friedel, shot was weak and straight at him. He also got into space outside the box in the first half and it was set for an easy left foot strike but he didnt have the confidence to try it, shifted it to his right and was closed down. What was great about yesterday that the team with genuine pace and penetration down the wings was us, not them. Our full-backs played an important job in getting that right. Anyone reckon Perch looked a bit better facing Downing than Nani? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Used to have massive jamborees at the welfare at Burradon with bands from all over. Always totty aplenty, even if the concept was shit. Not sure how a kazoo counts as proper musical instrument either. Weird how they were so popular. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brock Manson 0 Posted August 23, 2010 Share Posted August 23, 2010 Listened on the radio. Absolute quality performance all round that'll do wonders for the team's confidence. Barton actually resembling a footballer for once as well, more of the same please. I'd never have thought a team that had a midfield of Nolan, Barton and Smith would have annhialated a team like Villa 6-0. Fantastic. Routledge did alright, for fuck sake I can't believe we won 6-0 and some people are complaining. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anyone reckon Perch looked a bit better facing Downing than Nani? It was difficult for me to reconcile Perch as the same player as last week. Good to see Enrique's and Guti's overlapping runs working at this level too. Whilst not getting carried away, my fears of relegation are massively allayed now. Hughton deserves immense credit.

sweetleftpeg 0 Posted August 23, 2010 Share Posted August 23, 2010 The work rate is exceptional. No lazy fuckers in this side, even fatty Nolan. The worry is injuries and suspensions and the cover for them. But hey, I'm enjoying the moment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Asprilla 96 Posted August 23, 2010 Share Posted August 23, 2010 Harper's first half was disgraceful. Getting sucked in by Young for that and his kicking was shocking, thankfully, he didn't have to touch the ball 2nd half. Stevie, they asked KK about the job that Hughton has done and said "surely he deserves a new contract?". KK had to restrain himself from calling Dekka/Ashley prats. I thought KK was a bit unsure on Carroll, especially before the match. He said that in the air, he's the best he's ever see. Put him ahead of Shearer/Toshack, but seemed a bit negative about the rest of his game. He mentioned this a couple of times. However, he was only a kid under KK, and I think most would agree that Carroll has turned into a completely different player since around Christmas time. Season in the Championship will have done him the world of good imo. I agree. It's like the whole squad went out on loan to the Championship for a season to get their confidence back. Maybe Ashley really IS a genius....* *he's not a genius. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spongebob toonpants 3606 Posted August 23, 2010 Share Posted August 23, 2010 I was trying to remember if there had ever been a result that was more surprising to me in all of my years of watching. The only one that I could think of was the ManU 5-0, but even with that we had a hell of a team and expected to win every week. So my claim the most unexpected result in 40 years. Hereford doesn't count before somebody comes the smartarse Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
