Of course we start going on a run of some sort now. Martin Dubravkas going down easy to annoy a portuguese bloke Mags vs Anges great attacking side who have actually scored less than us whatevers.

only 10 points off Spurs and they have to go to Arsenal, Liverpool and Man City. Villa are stuttering 👀

Considering injuries, I think that is the best performance of the season. Take that bed wetters, we know who you are.

The best thing you can say about Schär is he looks like he could play whilst smoking a pipe, being class and still not spill any baccy.

 

But for the football gear, he looked like he was walking round shaking hands at a wedding reception on the pitch at the end. Hair still fucking immaculate too. Just fuck off mate.

Isak's a good interviewee. Even in pulled up white socks and flip flops.

Howe saying he had a meeting with Bruno about the suspension, right at the start of the run of games, and Bruno goes "Gaffer, I promise, I will not get booked".

What a game that was.  Once again demonstrating that we deserve a place in Europe next season.

Mourinho used to be such an engaging character. Plus when he first turned up in this country and nearly put Ferguson and Wenger in a loony bin, it was tremendous.

Commentators talking about how good Schär is as the camera pans to him on the pitch as he's chatting away to the Spurs forward....

Tottenham’s run in is brutal: they’ve still got to play arsenal, Liverpool, Man City and Chelsea. 
 

We couldn’t catch them, could we?

Villa also have Arsenal,  Chelsea, Liverpool.

 

I think if we didn't have the injuries, we may have been able to do it.

I looked up “North East Heating Trades League”, just to see if it actually exists. 
 

Only hit, from 2021…

 

 

Incidentally, further down the same page…

I went to an A-League game tonight (the Sydney Derby) and on the way home spotted a fella wearing a current toon top which I complimented him on. He was going to watch the game at a bar in the city (invited me to come) and was watching the game on his phone. In the approximately five minute interaction we scored twice causing us both to proclaim the other as our lucky charm. You're all welcome.

[Ayatollah Hermione 14686]

Would be bad news if they relegated us to the North East Heating Trades league and that would mean two derbies a season again

It is. Honestly think we will win something. A dip this season was inevitable despite the injuries, essentially like second season syndrome you get when promoted clubs do well then get relegation form. Or when we cam 3rd in 93-94, dropped to sixth, and then would have won it in 96 if it were not for that Bardolph cunt.

Next season we are stronger, more experienced, and have less game pressure. Bring it on.

Had to watch on delay after going out for dinner. 

 

Spurs.

 

What a performance. Our best for a long long time. And crazy given the makeshift defence and complete change of system.

 

The whole side was fantastic. But special credit to Anderson for me. Playing out of position. He had a wonderful game. He brings massive energy to the press. I really like him as a player and there's certainly a future for him with us as a squad player for at least a few seasons to come. Hopefully he can grab a PL goal kick on because he has goals in him as we saw during the pre-season games last year.

 

Isak is showing his class now each and every week. He is an amazing finisher. Gordon and Bruno both had nice games too. And Barnes who is showing his value. We have some serious players in this team. I really hope we don't have to sell any of the big names because if we can add a few players in the next window without losing anyone next season is going to be seriously entertaining. (It will be anyway, but it'd be great to go forward in terms of squad improvement without losing either Isak or Bruno. It'd be a shame if either left before we win something.)

 

And perhaps most pleasing is that Howe absolutely used a Plan B today of massive proportions (for him at least) and boy did it pay off spectacularly. That bodes well for the future as well.

 

And another clean sheet! We look a mean defence again all of a sudden with Burn in at CB.
