    100% agree i rather this and lose by a goal or 2 than all the 4-0 idk how many but more than 15, 5-0 also alot, 6-0 from Liverpool when we had the magician that is Pardew!!! Have we ever concded 4 or more goals in a match under rafa? I cant remember any, and if we have it must be less than 3 times.

    I can't remember any either actually.

    If it hadn't been for that ridiculous penalty decision it would of paid off.

    Great tactical plan

    I thought Rafa's tactics couldn't have been better considering he had about five new players on the field. Well done to Hoss for his goal, it was well taken.

    yep lesss than 20 percent possesion in a home game
    lets hang on for a draw at the most

    2 shots on target all game

    yes it nearly paid of

    but it didnt
    and with their possesion could easilyy have been 4-5 nil

    when you sit on the ropes like we do under rafa you will eventually concede beit from a dubious free kick/penalty where players are just throwing themselves into tackles as they are getting run ragged or a deflected goal from where the opposition are peppering our goal
    it is not a sustainable tactic

    thank you mick
    seems one mod is trying to make a name for himself
    seems you can call someone a kunt but you cant call someone sad and a fellow mod at that .seems you can be a multi bu

    i looked in and found the board very quiet all those calling for a ban etc dont seem to come on much other than when a pboro bear baiting thread starts

    Look at the bigger picture.
    Maybe it has little to do with what you call someone, and more to do with how often you say certain things.

    If you don't want to be banned, then wind your neck in a little bit. Whether you feel it is fair or not, you exactly what gets you banned and yet you still persist.

    I am not after an argument here, just, you are either your own worst enemy, or you actually love the conflict. (Rhetorical by the way. No reply required)
