BroadstairsR 2,272 Posted October 15, 2017 I just had a look on there.It''s working Nelson.This comment is class though."hope he breaks his leg in training this week and has to retire."Everything, but everything seems so sad about that little club. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Horse Renoir 1 Posted October 15, 2017 Don''t think they''ll like Oliveira much either. Looking forward to how much Maddison is going to wind them up as well, seems to get us 5-10 really soft free kicks a game. We''ve done the whole smashing them 5-1 away thing. An early goal followed by totally spoiling the game and winding them up like our last few away performances would be brilliant! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jim Smith 2,547 Posted October 15, 2017 I''d prefer it if he had not said this stuff. I''m sure some of it is slightly lost in translation but this will be used as motivation by McCarthy and if he plays Nelson and his short fuse will be targeted. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ZLF 333 Posted October 16, 2017 great job Nelson :-)Now, I am tempted by him gaining a goal scoring red card double - what are the odds? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
lincoln canary (& Golden Coppel) 0 Posted October 16, 2017 Nelson will definitely be targeted and wound up. Holt thrived on it, and did his talking with the ball rather than losing his head and reacting..... I''m nervous about Nelson. I hope he keeps focused and professional.

BroadstairsR 2,272 Posted October 16, 2017 Several postings on TWTD and they are really getting worked up about it. Genuine anger no less.It''s also given them another chance to mention their world famous history, such as it was, but they really need little excuse to do that. It''s virtually a daily ritual and even though it amounts to very little in the grand scheme of things, and was all ages ago in any case, we must be gracious as it seems to be all they have and the fact that it remains such a very big thing in that particular backwater just emphasises their inferiority complex.To misquote Churchill: "Never in the history of sporting achievement has so much been made of so little by so many."Come on Ollie rub it in with a brace.

Lessingham Canary 108 Posted October 16, 2017 We bumped into Nelson on Saurday after the Hull match, and i asked him what he said to McGregor (sure most of you saw him having a go at him after his celebration) after the last minute goal. And he said i just told him the truth "He is a w####r", seems our Nelson loike people to know what he is thinking. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Bill 1,788 Posted October 16, 2017 I don''t think Oliveira is as much winding up the binners as they are themselves.He didn''t say much beyond what he would be expected to say, and given how things are and have been for a while he is noy far off the truthIt is their head up their own backside belief that they are something ''special'' that sets them off like a cage full off monkeys in a thunder storm, every time the merest hint about their lowly status is put out.If, as they are now bleating, his comments have been a real boost to their teams determination then that says more about how bad things are than ever it does about his words.However we shall see come Sunday. Boll ox about form books going out the window on derby games are just that...boll ox. Wins at Boro and Sheff Utd by us testify that, as do 41-1, 1-5 and 3-1 in the play offs. The result is often no more than the times a gial was scored rather than how the 90 mins of play were. A dodgy penalty decision/miss. All too often the width of a cross bar/post or the judgement of a linesman can decide the result more than ever a teams efforts can. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
alex_ncfc 686 Posted October 16, 2017 Hilarious thing is they''ve now had to actually drag some 81 year old relic from their ''glory days'' out to defend them and say NCFC will never be a bigger club than Ipswich hahaha. "Known worldwide", as deluded as the rest of them. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
hogesar 10,587 Posted October 16, 2017 Theres something hilarious about the fact that they had to bring out an 81 year old to harp on about years before the majority of fans that will be there Sunday never experienced! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bill 1,788 Posted October 16, 2017 There was to be a parade before the game of fans who remember the binners last winning somethingIt has had to be cancelled, as it is thought that the various wheelchairs, zimmer frames and walking sticks might damage the pitch Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
hogesar 10,587 Posted October 16, 2017 That cant be true Rhubarb, the binners never have the ball on the ground so if anything it would give them an advantage Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bill 1,788 Posted October 16, 2017 Good pointmaybe the cancellation is due to there not being many left now......... many that actually want to turn up at poorman road that is Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
