I would argue this is what we needed...much more than the 9-0. Those are 3 points that required guts, determination, and willingness to bang away at it until it worked. I could type a whole lot of stuff about things I didn't like in our game, but honestly, that's the type of game I think gives you self belief and a feeling that, as a team, we will pull through adversity and get the points. It was a spirit building game and so I'll choose to just look at the positive, which outweighs the negatives for me, today.
On another note, something has to be done about the time waisting. It is, quite frankly, becoming ridiculous. What is the use of stoppage time if systematically, teams manage to waste much more than what the officials are allowed and willing to give at the end of the game AND anyway they can also waste the stoppage time as well. Something has to be done, especially with the goalkeepers, its getting to a point where you can waste about 30 seconds on each goal kick. I would argue that the yellows need to be shown early in the game for the keepers, but its not like we are seeing them late in the game either. Also, as a team, I think we should simply stop putting the ball out whenever we know that the other team is shithousing. Do this for a few games and preferably score from a situation or two of those and I'd be willing to bet we'll suddenly see a lot less of that crap being used against us.
Good post mate, last night showed that we have the fight and will to win even down to the last second, a proper gritty performance in which perseverance paid off and their shithousery bit them on their well deserved arse, as for the deliberate time wasting…initially I’d like the ref to warn those offending that anymore will result in a yellow…and that each time said offenders have say 30 secs to get back on their feet, anything longer the ref adds a minute to injury time, last nights extra extra time was warranted so fair play to Marriner for not falling for their sh*t,
After the 5 min sign went up two outfield players and Pope had treatment for supposed cramp, it was pathetic to see, surprising for a Eddy Howe side, more akin to Simeone or Maureen led teams, ANYHOO, Who gives a f**k, barcodes got what they deserved, F**k ALL, and had they just stuck to their guns could have earned a draw,
So onwards and upwards to that f***in ‘Shithole’ Woodison’ where we will once again come face to face with more Shithousery this time in the guise of Fat Frank’s sh*t kickers, F**kin Abhor this f***in lot, Bitter Blueshite Fuckpigs, still pretending to be a big club, bitter bitter bas**rds, I’m hoping tae f**k they go down, do a Leeds or better still Bury, and F**k Off altogether,
Usually you will say form goes oot the windy but not this time, blueshite are Sh*te and we will Sh*t all over them, they know it, we know it so let’s just get it done,
Same side that started last two, it’s a winning formula so no real reason to change except if Thiago made a remarkable return, doubtful I know but we can all f***in dream can’t we ?
Note; Took delivery yesterday of Pep Ljinders book ‘Intensity’ it’s absolutely fascinating and I’m only on page 79, really looking forward to reading it all the way thru, been watching football over 55 years and I’m still learning new stuff, the modern game with its psychology and healthy insights are a million miles away from what it was in my early days, the training methods and ideas are mesmerising, and like what Pep says, we do it our way, the Liverpool way, others may copy but we are always evolving and trying new ideas, one of the reasons why we are way way ahead in things like the Psycology, nutrition etc
