It just felt like it was our day, we were in total control throughout. Even after we conceded the late goal I was relaxed - they barely threatened 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tom 14288 Posted March 18 Share Posted March 18 Just got back home. Spent the day in the centre circle section of Club Wembley before getting guest list for Limp Bizkit at Wembley Arena Its hard to put into words how mental that was & the feeling of seeing the players lift the trophy in black & white ribbons. Best day of my life. 🏆🥇 20 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Trent’s bog staircase comes up from the right, Tyne’s comes up from the left, as here. Correct. Well spotted. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alex 37779 Posted March 18 Share Posted March 18 3 hours ago, Holden McGroin said: One massive thing that has changed since Howe has come in is our resilience to see out games. In all my years watching us play we’ve always crumbled when it’s mattered. I always used to think the motto of the city was ironic in relation to the club, as defence was so often our Achilles heel, even when we were good. But on Sunday I thought how appropriate it is applied to Howe’s team and especially that performance.

Monkeys Fist 46428 Posted March 18 Share Posted March 18 I’ve been thinking about Sir Eddie’s admission that he’s had the tactics for the game for two weeks, and purposely didn’t play them in the league game against the Dippers. This is a side who we have not won against in fucking ages, and Howe had never beaten in his managerial career. Given how superstitious footballers are, I reckon he’s put the hex on them now We let them have the one match, knowing we were going to fucking paste them when it mattered. He’s some boy, wor Edward. 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dr Gloom 24268 Posted March 18 Author Share Posted March 18 Just watched it again with sober eyes. Main takeaways: Burn’s performance was Herculean. He won absolutely everything in the air. Both sides were unusually direct, to our advantage. I think it was our game plan, to pump it long and use our midfield advantage to win the second balls. Liverpool were forced to go long too because we didn’t allow them to play out. We won duels all over the pitch. They couldn’t cope with our athleticism and tenacity. And when we had to defend, which didn’t happen too often, we blocked pretty much everything. They were all 10/10 performances but Burn, Joelinton, Tonali, Tino and Trippier were different class. Hat tip to the crowd. It sounded like we were playing at home. Barely a peep from the scousers 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr Gloom 24268 Posted March 18 Author Share Posted March 18 I see a few of the rags have been linking Bruno with a move to Arsenal today. And Romano has linked Isak with Liverpool. They can’t just fuck off and let us enjoy the moment can they? We’re clearly not welcome in the cartel club 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rayvin 6446 Posted March 19 Share Posted March 19 On 30/12/2024 at 00:23, Rayvin said: If this club is ever going to achieve anything, there has to be a moment when we start winning games like this. And by 'games like this' I mean situations where we are the better team but can't climb the psychological mountain that is required to beat a team like Man Utd when we need to. The ability to visualise ourselves as 'better'. As winners. The club has, IMO, always struggled with this in the entire time I've known it. One day we have to shake that off, we have to leap into the game confident that we are better, that we are deserving, and that we will win. I don't know if tomorrow is the day we do that, but it is an opportunity. I remembered writing this back in December about a far less meaningful game against Man Utd. Didn't actually think we'd ever really do it properly... 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rory the sour Yorkshire cunt basically dismissing the PSR restrictions we've had. Saw a clip of a guardian podcast where one of them opens with the amount of executions there was in Saudi Arabia last year, saw a Times podcast that was about the match and occasion but halfway through the female on it thought it was a bit depressing that nobody mentioned Saudi Arabia and sports washing and I thought the only depressing thing about that show was her trying to suck out any joy Martin Hardy had, (he answered her superbly and the others seemed a bit embarrassed by her or Martin I'm not sure but seemed more by her). The only sports washing I've seen around NUFC other than some initial divvies in the earliest days of the takeover was the sports direct washing of the club, it was everywhere in the stadium, it was on the boards for interviews and the cunt even desecrated our historical name. As for these? Apart from seeing lasses with head dress on escorting players onto the pitch* you don't see much if anything, if they're sports washing they're being very low key about it, in fact the only cunts who bring it up are the usual suspects. *No wait, that's at the Emirates.
