[norfolk white]

Fergie time again, what a night

[WTF11]

I cheered a scum goal there. Am I bad?

I know the situation we are, but I wiuld prefer to have seen Manure beaten.

Two great nights for me, NW !

Firstly our dominance against Forest was reflected in our stats of 14 shots with 5 on target, 57 per cent possession & a pass completion rate that kept Forest chasing shadows for much of the game, albeit the last 10 mins as the ER pitch was getting very slippery.

Having seen us now in the 'flesh' home & away our current system(s) has defo solidified our defensive aspects & unlocked the attacking potential at last of Aaronson & now Gruev, the latter plays a very neat, simple tidy game with beautiful balance whilst using a cool head into using decent assist opportunities for others to utilise by playing intelligent balls into space.

Another good performance tonight against a Chelsea team still trying to find a duration of 90 mins of consistentency rhythm wise under their new young coach sussing out his best combo - suspect Rosenoir was not expecting our 3-4-2-1 set-up tonight, bit hey ho it worked eventually.
Again a Bogle charge into the box created us an opening resulting in Lukas putting it away.
Bit of luck with a pinging ball resulting in our equaliser, for sure, what the hell as anything will do to put one into the Chelsea net. 👍

Very happy clapper & plenty of positives & pleased to be part of it too while over visiting family & friends in Leeds. 🤗

lol..The MightyWhites, what a great display of never giving up, battling for every point MOT

[hopelesslyoptimistic]

Great point and now above Spuds.

Mad as the Bijol mistake was it actually seemed to galvanise him and the team.

How bad were Chelsea with the diving and cheating all game , justice was served.

Going to grab my Fathers gun......

Monaco, i believe i saw you on US TV for 2 sec at the Forest match. I posted at once here, asking if you were there but noone replied.

Bijol was outstanding before and after his very very stupid push to give the penalty away. What possesses any footballer even at a Sunday League level to do that?
Gruev excellent too, Justin, Bogle, Rodon, the list goes on.
Great point especially after that 1st half. Credit to Farke perhaps?

What possesses referees giving away diving free kicks. Longstaff pulled out of a tackle never got close to toughing the dude. He falls over free in a dangerous situation. And yeah gets a yellow to boot lol
