Lush this. Long may it continue. Would love to be battering teams in the WSL.

Cheers for the tag mate, will give this a watch shortly

Cheers everyone and particularly the above. We've been talking about doing this for a while tbh for the likes of Burn and Longstaff. I like to try and be diplomatic about people's views but personally sitting in the stadium slating lads who are giving it their all is beyond ludicrous for me. You get more flies with sugar than shit. You aren't gonna improve someone's performance who is giving 100% and their confidence is shattered by groaning, whining and calling for their substitution. It's fucking mental. We've pulled displays because of suspensions etc. That have been celebrating players whom are somewhat more celebrated (generally) because it didn't make sense anymore and we've also noticed players who have been scapegoated. The clue is in the title for me - "supporters". You help people through the tough spells and give them support. They in turn will get through the tough times and you'll all come out of it the other side feeling better for it. Any improvement required on any of these players, is with the club and the powers that be to replace them one way or the other. Not the players themselves. Therefore as supporters it's upto us to ensure mentally there in a place of comfort to perform.

We've received very positive feedback from Dan Burn, Sean Longstaff and Eddie Howe either via Twitter or other sources and it really seems like this display has had the desired effect, especially given the score. Love to see it, an almost perfect day.

Nee pleasing some folk like. Decide they don't like a player and cannot give credit where it's due. Give owa.

Cheers!

Oh well.

Separately... Saturday may well be one of my favourite ever displays, not for creativity but for content.

Seen someone whinging on Twitter cause I was chanting "New-ca-stle" for the three claps. However, to my knowledge, growing up it was only ever 3 claps, then United. At least New-ca-stle makes sense though with 3 syllables for the 3 claps and it's our actual name. The other thing was vs Everton just United and United being shouted which was quite good to drive the loudness upward.

Boosts global profile doesn't it, has folk buying merchandise and potentially spending big bucks as 'package' deals to come watch us, etc. (Potentially). All just speculate to accumulate I'd guess.

MotM for us on Saturday coming.

Ah God. I have an inner rage and sickness now.
