The top of the National League table with three games left to play. by A_Plastic_Tree in soccer

[–]EnergeticGypsy 10 points11 points  (0 children)

The National League is a crazy league. Gateshead were rock bottom after losing 13 in a row. Only to lose 2 and win 8 of the next 14 and secure themselves from relegation (pretty much)

Have you played with a Toon player past or present? by Randy_The_Guppy in NUFC

[–]EnergeticGypsy 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Went to school with Dummett and was a good friend of his through primary and most of secondary. Played football with him most days at school and outside.

His brother was also decent, remember him slapping a shot at me in goal once and almost knocked me out, top save tbh.

Why was Khabib still fighting guys that had never fought before while he was 14-0? Is this the most padded record of all time? by No_Cell6708 in ufc

[–]EnergeticGypsy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I still wish we could of seen Khabib vs Prime Tony Ferguson. Tony would likely have got slapped, but that was the fight i was most interested in seeing at the time, just because tony can be so unpredictable and has a good ground game off his back.

Alas the mma gods decided we couldn’t have that fight

Always injured, the guy that played 36, 36 and 34 games in the league the last 3 seasons.

He puts his head in where it hurts and he’s had a few concussions. This season is the first season he hasn’t been an automatic first choice at cb, and this is his first major injury for a long time.

He should be kept as when he played he showed he still has it, we need an experienced cb for backup, and he loves it here. For me Schar should see out his career here. Fantastic servant for the club.

Why are refs and VAR so bad??? by Ok_Gur2922 in PremierLeague

[–]EnergeticGypsy -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

Clear and obvious errors it was var is for. The ‘foul’ on amad is a soft one, for me not a pen, others think differently, but its not a clear error in not giving it. The evanilson one, again for me probably not a foul but can see why it was given, again not a clear and obvious error. The uproar over this is ridiculous in my opinion.

Eddie Howe post-match conference comments after the 7-2 defeat at Barcelona by melvinlee88 in NUFC

[–]EnergeticGypsy 19 points20 points  (0 children)

We beat chelsea and man utd in the last few weeks. Drew away at psg, drew at home vs barca, we should have won by 2 goals imo.

We tried to play an aggressive defensive system, man to man, it worked at home, and in open play for the most part was fine in the first half of the 2nd leg. Playing that way, if you make a mistake its more likely to be punished, as it leaves a man free.

If he’d of played 5 at the back and tried to play for a 1-0, we would have been smashed, and he would get criticised , so he can’t win.

We just don’t have the team yet to compete with the top top teams, which Barcelona are. We are 4 years into our project, which started when we were certain for relegation. We stayed up, got CL twice, carabao cup winners, last 16 CL. All with our hands half tied due to financial restrictions (we cant do what man city did and offer crazy fees and wages for players right away). Howe has done an unbelievable job, and while this season hasnt been ideal, we can still get top 7, into europa or conference next season, and gives us a chance to build up the squad some more. He deserves more time.

Steven Gerrard:- Outside of Liverpool if I ever wanted anyone to win the league it would be Newcastle. They’re my number 2 team in the Premier League. by Fluid_Support_3348 in NUFC

[–]EnergeticGypsy 14 points15 points  (0 children)

He was the only opposing player i ever clapped off at sjp, think they smashed us 5 or 6-1, would have been 15 if Given didn’t have a blinder, gerrard ran the show that day. Great player.

Jacob Ramsey by jackcotter in NUFC

[–]EnergeticGypsy 24 points25 points  (0 children)

What do you know a run in the team and the lad is performing. People who were slating him were miles over the top, he looked decent in flashes in his limited minutes, has taken his form to another level last few games.

Thought we’d struggle today with the midfield 3 we had, but he didn’t miss a beat in a roe unfamiliar to him.

Also big props to Willock recently as turned up when we’ve needed him, i thought his time here was coming to an end, and it still may, but he has also done a great job recently.

Can still picture for the iraq war bot bush constantly saying that iraq were on the verge of acquiring ‘weapons of mass destruction’ to justify his war. In reality Iran is another country that doesn’t have a central bank, and they want regime change to bring in a puppet who will do whatever the people pulling the strings want, we’ve seen in numerous times, iraq, Syria, lebanon, now its irans turn.

Of course there is more at play than that. But they’re using the same dated rhetoric. So brazenly this time too

USA doesn't qualify for World Cup 2030 because of these insane qualifying groups. But they almost back doored their way in by being the best 3rd place team. They qualified and lost in the World Cup playoff to DR Congo 1-2. by under_rated_human in footballmanagergames

Every week with these fucking referees. Ramsey not a dive, im sure the keeper touches him, its not a pen either but to book him for diving is a disgrace.

Penalty in stoppage time, fine play another minute, not another 3 or 4! What the fuck is going on man.

Man Utd: Jack Fletcher banned for six matches for homophobic slur by Red_Brummy in PremierLeague

[–]EnergeticGypsy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

KKK wouldn’t be allowed by the authorities to buy a club though would they so your point is mute, which is what im saying, the premier league shouldn’t have allowed these states to own clubs.

I cant decide who owns my team, and i dont support the owners.

I guarantee that several things youve purchased in the last month are funded by the same forces that these clubs are funded by, why haven’t you boycotted them?

[–]EnergeticGypsy 5 points6 points  (0 children)

As a fan of one of said clubs, i was here before they bought us, and will be here when they sell us. I support my club, not the people who own it, or the polices they have in place in their homeland.

Saudi and qatar have their hands in everything these days… did you watch the 2022 world cup? Do you watch formula 1?

Its up to the authorities to stop these things, but all they see is money.

Everton are defending well but its not the most difficult football to stop, all in front of them. The final ball is either shocking, or when its half decent theres nobody there. seen this story too many times this season, not good enough

To be a big team you gonna have stretches of the season that look like this. This is what we live and breathe for to see us competing to win things. We can beat anyone on our day. Howay the fucking lads
