Negative davey...

Once again! no shocks there then eh! (N) (wnkr)

 

So.....

You want us to go there and attack and lose 7 - 0?

You are a wise man!

 

One off cup game - might as well. No point playing defensive to try and keep the score down.

That said, haven't seen the game, so don't know if we were defensive for the sake of it or because we had to.

 

look pal when your 1-0 down in a knock-out cup comp, even mike bassett can see you need 2 up front! that were a reight wise dicision to put a midget up front on his own toneet werent it then my oh so learned freind! i think not now dont you eh?

 

Report I got

from a mate at HT was that we were playing well.

 

I find jumping to conclusions

without knowing the full facts rather silly.

A 2-0 defeat away from home to Premiership club with 6 changes from Saturday is a creditable result.

Well done you reds.....

 

WE were negative

Playing 1 up front on his own.
It dont matter if we lost 20-0 or 2-0 a loss is still a loss, but by trying to attack we might get a goal and therefore maybe win , but playing the way we did just accepted the fact we were going to lose.
Maybe your mate did say that we were doing well, but we did not do well enough to get any shots in and make the keeper work, Newcastle could have upped the tempo at any time, but didnt need to.

 

Aye perhaps a game like this

Would have been a massive morale boost ahead of a crucial league game.

Sometimes I cant get my breath.

and just what the **** has that got to do with anything nt

 

Ritchie's 'attack all' policyi

I was there at that game, that night
</p>

It was appalling and so embarassing we were a total laughing stock</p>

</p>

Davey went up to Newcastle with a gameplan.</p>

It was cautious and he obviously wanted to see another system in place and how the players would react and play within that system.</p>

From listening to the commentary we did well and rattled their cages good and proper.</p>

I applaud him. We were never going to win this game in a million years and Newcastle have spent millions let's not forget.</p>

Davey will have learned so much more about HIS players and how they perform</p>

 

Fact , if we lost 4-0 5- 6- 0

the moaners on here would have moaned about the thrashing , 'just before an important league game'
davey could never winn tonight
some of our fans can Never BE HAPPY..WHY ??
Davey is starting to make an impact yet still we hace 'SUPPORTERS' who will not give 100% to the team
Take a look at a certain old gent who was a guest at our ground on saturday , who enjoyed it , yes every minute.
Yes moan if you want , but just moan to yourselves because people like me who attended in the 70 s with crowds od 2000 feel this club is going into the right direction with a good young manager.

 

eh! eh! calm down! calm down! lol!

 

thanks , im glad i proved you wrong xxx nt

 

Aye, the commentators admitted that Martins' goal was handball.

 

EH?

 

i think your avater says all about you xx nt

 

and yours says a lot about you pal, a nobody! lol!

 

im sorry but that's nonsense

Had we lost 8-0 it would have been crushing on the teams morale, this has an added importance I would have thought considering that it is a new bunch of players playing together.

We've lost 2-0 to a strong prem side - and put up a decent account. Surely we can take some positives out of that compared to a heavy defeat?

 

all im saying is it would have been a worthwhile exercise to give kim a run wy mossto for 15-20 mins after we were 1-0 down, surely you can see the positives in that?
