The always glum views of some don’t affect me, it can be quite funny in an ironic kind of way.
I like the Potter revolution and that’s not derailed by several posters telling us it’s rotten to the core.
They weren’t according to the experts. It was not a clever counter attacking game, as the home team they wanted to come out of the traps and get the huge crowd behind them. They patently failed, due to our quality passing game with a threat.
I thought I could be a moany supporter, but these extremely unhappy fans make me seem happy clappy.
Imagine writing us off as doomed to the Championship in mid September, when we’re 15th. You couldn’t make it up.
All the Sky team during and post match said we dominated the game from start to finish. Still saying that now. The only team comfortable on the ball, we stopped NU and their fans getting a head of steam up.
Why have all the miserablists appeared?
So many positives tonight. Potter has only been a PL manager a handful of games and we’ve already impemented significant, positive changes.
Watch Sky now ... a lovely, long interview with Potter, learn something about our club, what’s going on.
Stay...
Very happy with that. On top throughout away from home, the only progressive team, a vital point and a clean sheet.
Propper, Maupay, Dunk, Ryan and Stephens were all quality.
PL game time given to some youngsters, who were not embarrassed.
The mighty Geordies of Milburn, Beardsley, Waddle, Gazza, Keegan, Shearer .... resorting to long balls and crosses to the aged battering ram of Andy Carroll. Not great.
I NEVER get excited about leading in possession stats. But we’re probing, playing forward, being inventive, finding the man in a better advanced position. Away from home, we so rarely saw any of that Aug 17 to May 19.
We haven’t got the forwards with an end product, we rarely/never have in the PL, but this is light years ahead of our last 2 seasons away from home. Where we sat deep with 10 men behind the ball, with any unlucky striker left isolated upfield.
