Squeaky bum time….
Agreed.
Truth!
Agreed.
Wouldn’t it be wonderful if every player ever bought was a smash hit?
Maybe if our scumbag rat and DoF hadn’t bailed…
So I guess it’s cool to blame Eddie for paying over inflated prices for players that were second, third choice options, in a desperate move to get players in.
Sucks to be us.
We missed out on a lot of targets last summer, Trafford was one of our misses.
There’s a point people are missing here. We aren’t competing for top targets because of our inability to pay the wages needed to get them.
That forces Eddie into tough squad decisions he thinks will win games.
Eddie disagreed with that idea obviously
We got Ramsdale on loan… as a backup to Pope… to replace Dubs.
We got what we paid for.
Marmadashvili can’t even get a game at LFC… and we wanted him too…
Ramsdale was seen as a competent keeper at the time we got him on loan.
Elanga was a deadline day target in 2024.
If the rat had stayed, we’d not have overspent on 2 CFs. We’d still be in the shit though because he’s a permacrock now.
RCB was the only real other need.
Did anyone think we’d need to spend that much?
Elanga was the ONLY target going into the summer… and a right sided CB.
Did we want to buy Waltemade and Wissa?
We had no choice.
What were our options… Osula? Neave?
You can’t legislate that though… we were shit against Quarabag for 1.5 of both legs.
We’ve been shit for a while.
That’s your opinion.
Sandro scores that worldie in extra time are we having this convo?
You’re paying the price of a CL ticket to watch the reserves then?
Let’s think about the £250m
Did anyone think it was badly spent when we were spending it?
No… we can’t complain. Likewise when our players get injured.
You might suggest losing a home CL game would be worth saving legs.
I wonder how many supporters would buy a CL ticket to a team of reserves?
Hindsight… if Bruno and Livramento hadn’t got injured…
You can play second guesses all the way back to Isak…
You would concede a defeat to Quarabag to rest players?
Won’t… or can’t?
I’d offer you to remember this next season when we’re playing only 1 game a week
Matthew Philpotts has a strong reaction to yesterday’s disastrous result and is looking nowhere other than the pitch for answers - a quality piece of fanzine writing - #NUFC

Wait a minute, fifa are expecting Iran to pull out of the world cup, surely as the aggressor the USA should be kicked out. Like Russia, yes?
Schar > Thiaw
Has to be said.
Ponderous…
Confidence is a strange thing… which is something that I think we’ve struggled with all season.
We needed a season free of pressure, but that doesn’t exist. We needed better luck with injuries and didn’t get it. We needed a stretch of wins to make us comfortable… and it didn’t happen.
Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez challenges systems designed to exclude us. She refuses to shrink, soften or apologize.
When women stand firm, power trembles!
When one woman speaks boldly, millions feel less alone.
That’s not noise!
That’s leadership!

Example…
I was a devout MSNBC watcher. Morning Joe through to Maddow.
Thought that it was IMPOSSIBLE for the orange baboon to get re-elected. Then he wins, and they are completely unapologetic about it.
Can’t do network news at all. None of it.
Now I pick my poisons, and some of that is in SM.
Interesting conversation…
I’m not sure creating the world you want to see doesn’t actually make you ignorant of everything else.
I need to know how people think. Even if I don’t interact. Awareness leads to careness (if that’s a word)
I create lists for things I like… but I can’t live there.
You shouldn’t post things like this…
Eddie might see it.
We haven’t shown the ability to replace at all…
Which makes Shahar’s development urgent.
He should challenge for a starting role next season
Let’s hope he gets a lot more by the end of the season.
