He brought Davies on to add a bit of energy in the dying minutes of the game and, to be fair, he did at least try to get something going down the left flank.Why there is no urgency in our play?
Can’t see the point subbing Rose with Davies!
The bottom line we don’t have a second striker llorente replacement. Parrott is too young and inexperienced
That's nothing, I saw one fan actually TAKE A PISS over the back walkway at the top of the South Stand...I am not criticising other 'fans' but the usual piss their pants merchants that come out in force after a Spurs defeat that a very large number went missing the minute Moura got his third against ajax.
when you force their players back so that 10 defender inside the box, how are we going to thread a ball though ? we needed to be playing in the middle 1/3 of the pitch thus drawing their players out and opening up the pitch then we could play balls over the top or though the lines
I wonder if his ankle's still really fragile. He came up slowly out of a couple of tackles today, feeling the ankle and looking like he was thinking, 'is it ok or not?'.What are your thoughts on what's going on in Kane's head at the moment. He's appears totally out of it. I'm worried!
In the park lane ,i did see stewards asking people to sit,or i think that what they were asking them.only once thoughWell at least I was allowed to Stand the whole game.. Just wait to see of someone grassed me up by TEXT:
And what did the person in the seat behind you think of that?Well at least I was allowed to Stand the whole game.. Just wait to see of someone grassed me up by TEXT:
Exactly.We could have been kicking it around our box, and they would have stayed where they were.We should have worked out how to deal with teams like this now,Newcastle never left their penalty box, they were happy to let us pass it in f
Not sure,but he probably grassed him up by text...And what did the person in the seat behind you think of that?

This is genuine (not invented for effect) - At half time I noticed a young man with dwarfism walking back to his seat. If he'd have been in the seat behind you, would you have blocked his view for the entire game?No idea. I was looking at the pitch, as was he and those behind him i guess..... and you have started me on one now. Unlike...
All those that turn up, do not utter a single word of a song, show no emotion or passion and very little interest in the game. Family to my right, Dad.Mum and 3 kids... (presumably) Kids sat and didnt watch the game, Mum looked like she was seriously pissed off about something and Dad just had a stupid grin all the game.
Fine, each to their own, but this wasn't in the family section or west, east stands. It was Row bloody 5 behind the goal in the "wall of noise". You know, the area that used to generate the atmosphere, the area where the core support was. That is repeated up and down each row in the South Stand.
My Son who has been coming to games for the last 6 years with me, mentioned at half time how that area of the ground has massively changed. First time he has been in the new "park lane" area. Seems the groups of Lads that got things going are either dispersed or not there at all, or maybe just diluted by the tourists.
The best atmosphere is in the Goal Line Bar area before the game.
I once blagged a ticket in the home end at St Mary’s during the Jol era - snuck in wearing covert socks, and promised my brother-in-law (a Saints ST holder) not to celebrate if we scored. Turned out we lost. Dire game. Bit like yesterday.No idea. I was looking at the pitch, as was he and those behind him i guess..... and you have started me on one now. Unlike...

Geezer behind me was saying similar throughout the match.People next to me were tutting.Everything he said /was moaning g about was correct imho. Shame, because it could be mustard in thereNo idea.

That's very concerning. After Newcastle scored, he showed some urgency in the first half but very flat disappeared in the second half apart from pen appeal.What are your thoughts on what's going on in Kane's head at the moment. He's appears totally out of it. I'm worried!
I think I pretty much did. What question went unanswered for you?Nope, and didn't again. I look forward to your railing against 'melters' again next weekend.
Perhaps he was going for the old retro football experience, was anyone able to help him out with a newspaper?That's nothing, I saw one fan actually TAKE A PISS over the back walkway at the top of the South Stand...
Admittedly, he was off his face... but still... pissing on your own door step!
I honestly feel that there has been very little to cheer about and some of the performances have been so turd that it’s killing the atmosphere. Last season Palace, Waste Ham & Everton were awful games. Ajax was flat and this year, Villa & yesterday were pathetic. That’s on average going to be about £300 paid to watch absolute dog shit. I don’t feel like a sing song.No idea. I was looking at the pitch, as was he and those behind him i guess..... and you have started me on one now. Unlike...

The entire backline was a calamity on that goal. KWP far up the field, Toby has drifted out of position to the right and Sanchez has thus moved centrally to compensate, which leaves Joelinton dead open since Rose is nowhere near to cover back.Finally got it over with and watched the lowlights - shocking 'attacking' display but my god the defending (if you can call it that) for their goal was atrocious. Sanchez ball watching and out of position, and worse Rose on the suppposed cover only reacts and sees danger when it's in the net. Schoolboys' own stuff indeed.
