Well I can see where you're coming from...and indeed Klopp is pissed off with their finishing. But, part of earning a point is your defence and 'keeper either blocking/saving those chances or making them more difficult and we did those things very well. For me, whilst I agree we were fortunate, that was the sort of game where we created-and earned-our good fortune, if that makes sense?Quote:

100% agree with your comments a great performance but I fear we are only papering over the cracksQuote:

Aye...sadly, I can't disagree with that. And I also agree that a decent point and performance is, indeed, only papering over the cracks and I'm sure this wasn't a watershed moment and that we'll be back to the usual garbage before very long....but we have so little to be positive about at the moment that these fleeting moments need to be cherished.Quote:

Not gonna lie, I was SO pissed off with everything about Bruce that I thought, if we're going to lose, it has to be a cricket score and maybe, just maybe the fallout from that would see Ashley act...I know, I know, not gonna happen...but I was so fed up with Bruce's style of play I thought 'why should he get away with playing football that) shite without it resulting in us getting twatted'. Twisted thinking? Perhaps...but that's what NUFC does to you. :D
Cheers mate and the same to you and yours!Quote:
