The Fish 9027 Posted November 22, 2010 Share Posted November 22, 2010 Behave Peter, nobody expected we'd be 10th at this stage. We've won where wouldn't have expected and we've lost where we haven't expected. Realistically we're tenth approaching the busy period. I'm not going to start panicking yet.

Guest WDP Posted November 22, 2010 Share Posted November 22, 2010 (edited) I don't mean to be offensive to Peter or LM or other people who are negative about NUFC at the minute, but I get the impression any praise you give the team, they take as a show of support for Ashley when that's definitely not my intention. In the main the team and the manager have been excellent this season, even when we haven't got the points at home it's not been that bad, and Villa, mackems, Everton, West Ham, Arsenal and Chelsea away were all unexpected and superb. We'll be fine. Edited November 22, 2010 by WDP Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Holden McGroin 4923 Posted November 22, 2010 Share Posted November 22, 2010 (edited) Its just the typical myopic knee-jerk reactions of the modern day football fan. If we lose we are the worst team in the world, if we win we are the best. 10th is fantastic progress. We just have to keep it up.

Barney 0 Posted November 22, 2010 Share Posted November 22, 2010 10th is great, and I'd have absolutely taken it when offered at the start of the season. The problem is how close we are to the bottom 3. It's a tight league this year and we can't afford to have too many losses in a row or we'll get sucked into it.

Thing is Im not negative about NUFC at the moment, I think our league position is way better than I ever expected it to be at this stage however that doesnt mean Im going to get over confident. as has been pointed out in the other thread some of our results have been unbelievable but beating Villa 6 nowt, the makems and Arsenal at their place doesnt get you a Champions League spot or even guarantee survival. Its how you perform over the season and we've shown some worrying signs in some of the more important games. Id happily swap Arsenal and Villa results for a 1 nowt against Blackpool and Blackburn. This thread however wasnt posted to be overtly negative it was more to show that for every positive theres an equal or worse negative. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At the end of the season we'll be more interested in where Blackburn and Blackpool are than the other two mate. All in all though I refuse to be negative, its been a canny season, it's great going to the match now because you just don't know what you're gonna get from them. It's a surprise.

Christmas Tree 3997 Posted November 22, 2010 Share Posted November 22, 2010 Can I just add that why does realism have to play a part. When did football supporters become so serious. Live and die at the gut wrenches of a weekends results but come Monday, rosy specs back on expecting the best. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What price we finish 3rd bottom and Blackpool etc are one point above us. You've a short memory. Think back to the home defeat to Hull 2 years ago. All of PP's points are valid, some more than others. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
