Match Thread vs. Eastleigh 20.11.21 [NL]

[Kelton]

In a manner of speaking we are the man utd of the national league , anything less than top or the top 3 ( top four for united ) is a disaster.
And if man utd lose to a bottom half of the table team, like us its bad news

Not sure about us being the Man U of the NL
If Utd finish 3rd in the prem they are in the Champs league full stop
If we finish 3rd in the NL we are in the poxy playoffs. Hardly similar outcomes are they??

Why r we? At best we have the 4th best budget in this league, maybe 5th.

Think there are several teams that have higher budgets than man utd ?
But the reason we are like man utd, is because of our rich heritage and past history, and much higher league positions in the past

That was bloody atrocious today. We have played there three times now and not even scored,and my word Eastleigh are fkg ordinary.

That was bad news Patterson going back,I felt the worst would happen. Slocombe is a fkg liability.He can't catch the ball,doesn't organise the defence,doesn't talk and doesn't command his area.The defenders don't know what he is going to do.

Notts have never sorted the issue with simple crosses going into the box and the opposition scoring easy goals. FFS sake Burchnall sort it out.

Also a few of our players seem to think they are better than what they are.

Just not good enough.

Are you and Davy one of the same? You both only turn up on here when we lose.

No i posted on here after the win , actully saying it was agreat win, and good to do the business in front of a big crowd and occassion, something we must do if we reach the playoffs, these points were ignored

I then said lets not get carried away, as everything ran for us on the day, despite some people saying we were fantastic, and ib,s brilliant tactics, not so because if rooney had levelled which he should have done, would notts have crumbled under the pressure ? The answer is we probably would have
As for the chances they occured, especially rooney,s you may choose to ignore them, and pretend we were fantastic, i just advised caution going into future matches, and it proved to be well founded as the brilliant IB came unstuck today when things did not run for him on the day

Makes no sense Davy. Firstly Utd I believe are definitely in the top 3 spend wise over the past couple of seasons.
Secondly what’s our history got to do with anything this season?

[magpie_mania]

Rubbish. I wasn't at Grimsby so can only go by the opinions of others, but the general concensus seems to be that both teams were poor, and we were a bit lucky to get three points. I was at the Solihull game however, and anything but three points for us would have been a travesty. You keep banging on about the Rooney miss, but we missed easier chances, and 2-0 flattered them more than us.

One win may have been quite fortunate, but the other one definitely wasn't.

So we lose and Davy spends all of Saturday night on here!

That's rubbish about Solihull. I honestly can't remember them having 3 good chances. And just because Rooney had one chance does not mean that our defence was poor. There's not a team in the world who never give a single chance to the other team every game.

I don't think we will get auto promotion but it's far too early to write us off now.

Evening Davey
with regards you quote " i do not mind people celebrating a win, but no need for them to go completely over the top, and get carried away" surely this works both ways?

If only lol

Any positive overreaction I've seen pales in significance to the more common negative version. If you've not witnessed this on NCM you aren't blinkered you are blind.
