The Kraken

Lovely stuff. And deserved.

We are going for it. What game are you watching? We’ve had 4 shots so far.

Oh Mara. Did so well to bring it down as well.

Shame ‘his all’ largely amounts to falling over his own feet a lot. Dare I say it: this is a really encouraging start. We’re obviously massively deficient in quality but it’s a much improved performance so far. I don’t expect the win but it looks like an organised start.

This is night and day so far from the Forest game and the start of the Palace game. Some proper hustle, high press, working hard for each other, very positive start.

I don’t think it’s a bad attendance at all. Northam full, Kingsland mostly full, Itchen and Chapel about half. Reckon it’s at least 25k, probably more.

Sky calling it as a back 4, Djenepo in a 3 up top.

I’ve opened a bottle of red wine (Argie Malbec), I feel like I’m gonna need it. Come on you red and white machine.

Yeah, it’s about as solid a midfield 3 as we’ve got.

The order of the lineup seems to suggest Djnepo on the right, KWP on the left. 🤷‍♂️

Lineup including bench.

Compared it to the holocaust. “As one consultant cardiologist said to me this is the biggest crime against humanity since the Holocaust."

The bloke that I know that has just done this said that he didn’t need to do that, he just emailed it to the kindle address. He got an email from Amazon asking him to confirm, then when he did that it showed up in his managed content list as a document. Then just move to kindle via Amazon’s Manage my Content. So he said.

I’m done up to step 5, not sure what is meant by “your Amazon email address”? Or how I find it…. edit: done it, thanks!

I could’ve done, yes. I chose not to, given who made the post.

The week NJ joined he gave the players a week off so he could work on tactics, he didn’t start training with the players until at least 10 days after taking the job.

Seriously, this rain can just fuck off. It seems like it’s being continually raining for over a month. I mean, it’s better than the summer when we had housing estates spontaneously bursting into flames, but I feel like to we need to find a happy medium.

Newcastle aren’t really a benchmark. Their positioning of away fans at St James Park goes against the Premier league rules that were brought in around 5-6 years ago which stipulates that away fans must be positioned pitchside. Newcastle are the only ones that don’t comply, they have an exemption due to “safety reasons” (basically keeping supporters segregated on entry/exit).

Good to see he already owns a warm coat.

U wot m8? Did you not see our unique, innovative and frankly amazing light show before the Forest game? It was inspiring and put us right on the map. The Chapel kop was effervescent all night after that, especially after the OWTS funeral march pre-game.

All of those 3 listed should be thanking their lucky stars that they are on premier league wages and that they are in some form of spotlight. If they are agitating for a move they need a heavy dose of realism. Djenepo just got given a massive contract extension FFS. Particularly for him and Elmo, we’d be lucky to get a club who would willingly take them on at the wages we’ve given them. Bang average overpaid muck.

Can’t see us not signing a striker. But then I thought that in summer. I think SR are rolling the dice and I reckon we’ll get what Jones says they’re trying for, 3-4 in the window.

Forster hasn’t got better with hindsight, it’s just realism to accept that he’s better than McCarthy and he’s probably better than Bazunu. Like losing Romeu, the problem wasn’t getting rid of Forster, it was replacing him with someone who currently isn’t as good as him. We needed to improve the GK position (and get Forster’s enormous wages off the books), we seem to have worsened the position in the short term.

I saw this earlier, it’s incredible. I mean, it’s just such a terrible photoshop as well, look at it, what is the rocket supposed to be resting on?! Schapps is now desperately trying to claim he knew nothing about it then pulled it when he found out.
