NUFC vs Brentford

[Zippity]

Usually that the case. At this game I think he tried to go for a win.

I disagree in a way-maybe we're just talking semantics, but....what I think is that he wanted to go for the win and hoyed on attackers to try and achieve that but he has no idea how to make that happen because, well, he is clueless. There was no plan, it was still just hit and hope.

Maybe if we talked in Finnish I would get my points right? 😎

You may indeed....but my Finnish extends to....well, it actually hasn't started, never mined Finnished....

It doesn't even hurt anymore....

I'm just numb after that.....

Let's not forget that Brentford made 5 changes from the team which played in the Chimpo-including resting their top scorer-whilst Bruce picked what he thought was our strongest available team.

I guess that shows, as Liikape said, that he wanted to win the game.

He just didn't know how.

Because he doesn't know how.

Aye. . .

There are no surprises on this boards comments. I wanted us to go to the next round. But of course bashing Bruce is more important.

He is the common denominator.

For you not to be able to see it after all this time suggests to me you are engaging in some next level trolling or you have a severely warped view of reality.

[BenArfa10]

Starting 11 was propably the best he could have put up. Yedlin has been shocking at defending before Bruce arrived.

I’m ignoring you from now on.

Troll 100%

Must be, nobody can be that stupid. If they are, our support is diluted...

[Zippity]

In fairness, I don't think he is a troll. He's already said he's neither a fan of Ashley nor Bruce but I think he's misunderstood the true depth of how low everyone is feeling about the club.

As I said the other day, what with one thing and another, people have had all their positivity drained away and, naturally, as that happens, negativity pours in to fill the void. Well over a decade of Ashley culminating in Rafa leaving to be replaced by Steve fucking Bruce, players stealing a living, fans boycotting (not an easy decision, believe me), our football getting steadily and rapidly worse and worse and, to top it all, we have pundits falling over themselves to criticise us and praise Bruce and we have no collective voice to counter that because of the empty grounds. Putting aside the issue of whether Newcastle fans should be going (under normal circumstances), if fans were allowed in they'd be giving the players and Bruce both barrels (and yes, I know there'd be some 'uber' fans ready to call anyone who protests mackems, etc).

And that's before we even add into the mix the absolute shit storm everyone's been through because of this virus. Asking for more positivity is like being asked to find a single cherry in a bath full of shite and then having to eat it.
