I feel like that every game we play. Someone is going to cop for 5 or 6 this season. Hopefully a few will Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Site Supporter Alf Hartigan Posted October 28, 2022 Site Supporter Share Posted October 28, 2022 I'm waiting for a repeat of the Sunderland performance, know a fan of them who went to that game last season, he was utterly convinced we would be going up last season. Unfortunately, we've not come close to that performance since. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

London Wanderer Posted October 28, 2022 Share Posted October 28, 2022 (edited) Come on @Tonge moor green jacket you've probably got one of the widest ranges of vocabulary on the forum 😆 Honest question - when did you last refer to a person you know as it? Are you actually trying to argue that 'it' isn't used to offend? They were clearly acting the prick - so let's just call them out for that.

London Wanderer Posted October 28, 2022 Share Posted October 28, 2022 Anyway - we're gonna lose the thread and Radcliffe White will rightly be sad. I think we're due a big win. But it's Bolton and I'm not sure Evatt has quite moved on from his experiments. Burton was tough but the first 15 minutes were promising and if Dapo had put his chance away, I think we could have gone on to win by a bigger margin. Would like to see the 4, 3, 3 that folk have been talking about. Just hope he keeps Dapo in and that Bodvar starts. Don't deny that it's a headfuck for Evatt though. Bodvar and Bakayoko looked dangerous when we were playing a different style looking for goals late on. So it could be different starting against Oxford. I'm going 3 - 1 to the Whites. Dapo, Bodvar and Lee. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Imagine if it was a 6ft tall Asian fella - would it be alreet to swap the word Tranny with P*** if they were acting like a dick? I'm not offended on anyone's behalf mate - they sound like a prick (as I said in the other part of my post that you ignored). I'm just curious as to when 'it' became an affectionate pronoun? Being curious about language doesn't mean you're offended; but I knew it wouldn't be long before someone jumped to that conclusion. But what's baffling me the most is why they were driving up and not travelling on the TransPennine Express? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DazBob Posted October 28, 2022 Share Posted October 28, 2022 It's all about us getting that early goal. I thought we started really well on Tuesday and should've made more of our pressure. Thing is though, for all our pressure I can only think of the Dapo shot that went wide. Everything else was us getting to the edge of the box and then passing it out wide for a cross into an area that had too many bodies in it. Just fucking shoot!

JimmyRiddle Posted October 28, 2022 Share Posted October 28, 2022 I think teams who drop deep and let us play in front of them nullify Charles' pace, and unfortunately his hold up play just isn't good enough, we rarely work openings in or around the D, we are always forced wide. No coincidence his form has dropped as more teams play this way against us. If we do go 4 3 3 then really needs be Dadi or Baka as the focul point for me, but is a weak spot currently so hope we get someone in January, a Daryl Murphy type would be perfect!

Pa*i would inevitably be viewed as an insult due to the way it's historically used. Afghani, or Indian bloke would be fine in a normal context, as would 'Pakistani' for that matter.

Frankly, if an Asian bloke is inciting violence and threatening folk, then him being called a Paki is tough shit. A perverse argument being lobbied- don't call a criminal anything as you might hurt his feelings. Kinell. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
peebles Posted October 28, 2022 Share Posted October 28, 2022 2 0 win, Dion Charles needs a rest for me. I'd also prefer away fans down in the lower tier. I think having them up there doesn't trigger the CC and our noise level is lower. I see Blackburn started off this season with away fans up top and soon reverted back.

In all honesty, no. We don't have enough shots on target, not saying we can't score 3 in a game but that's good enough. If we were taking pot shots and the keeper was tipping them over the bar I'd agree one of these days it will come right, but we go whole halves without troubling the keeper. Any win will do. As mentioned earlier in the thread, they have a great away record and even with 10 men for last 15 minutes they drew at Pompey. 2-1 to us will do nicely, same as last season.
