Chaser 1055 Posted February 15 Share Posted February 15 On his day when he fit he's one of the best strikers around. Unfortunately he's only fit for that day once a season. Thanks for the service but it's time we moved him on. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was him wrestling with a Forest defender. Wilson initiated the wrestle, had a foul given against him and tore his pec IIRC 🤦♂️ 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kid Dynamite 5941 Posted February 15 Share Posted February 15 Can you imagine if he played rugby? The bloke is fucked for 3 months after pushing a defender off him ffs. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alex 30462 Posted February 16 Share Posted February 16 I know he’s a crock but this still seems really unlucky / a freak injury. It’s not like he has a history of this sort of injury. It just about sums our luck up this season. Obviously we need a more reliable option there next season though. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gemmill 34631 Posted February 16 Share Posted February 16 (edited) Sounds like Howe has had it with Ashworth. Edit: article starts with "Eddie Howe has expressed his concern over...", I accidentally chopped that line off the start.

Howmanheyman 26981 Posted February 16 Share Posted February 16 Need to do some false briefing to ashworth like British intelligence did to the Germans on the lead up to operation overlord. Put a pretend 'dead' body washed up on his garden with made up plans on who we're buying. Make the body Wilson for more plausibility. 9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anorthernsoul 1221 Posted February 16 Share Posted February 16 Bored of this Ashworth talk already. Either pledge your allegiance to the Geordie cause or gan and FUCK YA MA He can be easily replaced. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ayatollah Hermione 12767 Posted February 16 Share Posted February 16 Got a feeling that it’ll all come out that poor Lewis Hall has been the catalyst for all of this. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
toonotl 2431 Posted February 16 Share Posted February 16 It was notable as well that Howe mentioned that Ashworth's impact was difficult to assess because a DoF position is a long-term position and developments from such a position don't materialise over the short-term. I'm paraphrasing, but, I think given how carefully Howe selects his words, that this is tantamount to telling the press that Ashworth hasn't done fuck all yet and he's already looking for the exit for his own career progression. And moreover he's taking insider secrets with him like a rat. I reckon Howe doesn't like him. That's good enough for me. Pack up ya desk nerd and ... 13 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In all fairness, they’ve brought him into a midfield that didn’t need him and is now completely unbalanced. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gemmill 34631 Posted February 18 Share Posted February 18 Outcome of 4,000 simulations of the remaining games. Some interesting stuff in the graphics - we have, on average, the easiest run-in of anyone in the division. But we've got a less than 2% chance of finishing top 4. There's a James Lawrence Alcott video on YouTube that zeroes in on some of the outlier sims (Villa winning the league on GD over Liverpool, Man City and Liverpool both finishing outside of the top 4, Sheff United finishing 14th etc).

toonotl 2431 Posted February 18 Share Posted February 18 7th would be a wonderful result for the season. Even 8th is not too bad all things considered. Does 7th get us Europa League? Or would that get us the tin-pot Europa Conference league or whatever it's called? (Assuming that a team above us wins the FA Cup and we don't pull off a miracle.) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
