[Albion] The Newcastle draw thread

[singing4seagulls]

Can I vote for both as before the game , looking at the two sides, i would have gladly accepted a point but after the Gomez miss it feels like 2 points dropped.

I also need this option.

Less the Gomez miss though, more the free kick that shouldn't have been.

Before the game that is 1 point won and come tomorrow will see that too.

But when you concede in the 89th minute, it feels like 2 points dropped. We need to game manage better when ahead like this. It's where experience like Milner and Lallana would come on in previous seasons. We've not got them now or Gross etc. We're young but we will learn.

One point gained. Referee robbed us of two points.

Dozens of clubs can same exactly the same and yet have won stuff or done comparably better at a point in their time. Sorry, but your pov is a bit boring and factually isn’t true either. Probably too young to remember Mike Bamber I guess.

If you started watching in the 80's (as you claimed earlier), then you're too young to remember him.

Stupidity from Ayari has probably cost us a few European vacations next season.

Stupid it was indeed, but I'm not blaming him for that in the slightest.

Read my post again - I said ‘just about’

Its all about opinions.

I agree with what you said apart from ‘just about’ - as Carlos proved last week.

Bit of an odd comment. I started going in 1982 at the age of 10, and remember Mike Bamber clearly.

I think we are agreeing with each other tbh and arguing over semantics!

Neither of us thought “we had it in the bag” - at 89 mins, imo it is reasonable to say ‘just about’ ie with minutes to go and 1:0 up.

As I said, it is about game management at that stage, nothing more.

Last week I would have said WHU just about had it because we were a goal down as we went into added time.

Are you saying we've suddenly become a 'big club'? MASSIVE, even?

Complete with entitled fans embarrassing us and demanding we win stuff now. . . And if we don't we should start berating out players while they play.

Is Portlock in Yorkshire? Does he want to turn us into the new Leeds or Sheffield Wednesday?

The world has gone mad.

Two points dropped. Stupid handball from Ayari cost us the game. Otherwise it looked like we would've held on for the win.

 

[nickjhs]

I went for 2 dropped, because within sight of the winning line we yet again make a rookie.

And it’s about time our fan base fecking expects more and drops the small club happy with winning best pie, fax machine and community tree planted mentality, and instead starts going APOPLECTIC at our players every time we do this each week!

Yeah, the problem is its only the the supporters that give a shit, the players couldn't care less if they win, lose or draw. I can almost hear the jokes and banter about Gomez' miss and Ayari's handball
