It's such a fine line between winning and losing. Had Sonny's shot when we were leading had behaved like a similar one he had against Everton, we'd been 2-0 up and the rest would have been academic.
Totally agree. We would most likely run out easy winners again. As you say it is a very fine line between success and failure particularly when the players are running on fresh air.
Having read some of the crazy, ridiculous comments in the match thread and let the dust settle, this is my take:
This Summer we will know exactly where we stand with Levy and Spurs. We have the best manager in our recent history and he will want backing this Summer. If he isn’t, he will obv walk to United.
Therefore does Levy really want us to get to the top with a couple of pacy full backs and a proper central midfielder ?
Or does he want Eddie Howe / Benitez in charge with us in the mix for Top 4-6.
We will know soon enough. Happy new year and may 2019 bring health and happiness to you all.
I don't think we were well beaten we actually kept going against City and Pool - The other three are more galling because we had control of all three and he had the chance to put them away.
Small margins.
Agreed.You’re not factoring in the “excuse” of paying off the new stadium and it’s effect on transfer funds!
(Excuse is quoted because the stadium loan is going to effect the clubs business, of course it will, but it will be the line trotted out when we don’t spend what people hope).
You think we were well beaten by both teams this year? We looked like gash against City last year, 4-1 and it could have been more. This year not so much.Huh? Dunno what you watched, 4-1 wouldn’t have flattered either team

Why do fans blow things out of proportion. We could have ended up with a 2-2 draw with Liverpool and people would have told us how lucky we were ... It would have been a draw ...
Still waiting for those figures, Dave. Hard to back someone when a club is pocketing all that cash you were on about to back the manager ...I think we will know next month.
If Poch isn't backed in Jan - and I don't think he will be - he should go to RM or Utd where he will be.
I think the new contract may just be an investment by Levy so we can extract a fee next year when he does go.
In recent history? L O fucking LThe Liverpool game is quite widely accepted as the most one sided 2-1 in recent history. I repeat: no idea what you watched

Could have been 2-2, all that matters is the score though, so we lost.

We lost a game 2-1 and it could have been 2-2 ... No one is going to remember this game - bar you and some scouscers probably - come february.The Liverpool game is quite widely accepted as the most one sided 2-1 in recent history. I repeat: no idea what you watched
They had three times as many shots on target as us, as the away side. 2-2?! We scored our only goal in the third minute of injury time

But they didn't and it finished 2-1, I sure as hell wasn't as down and the fact you that's how you remember it, good for you, all I remember is we were turned down for a stonewall pen in the last minute ...Liverpool should have beaten us 5 or 6 nil at least that day. We'd have got away with a massive robbery if we'd got that Son penalty and drawn 2-2.

You think by trying to tell me it was more one sided than the result suggests (in your ever so humble opinion) changes the fact it was almost a draw and (imho) wasn't as bad as people make out ...
We could be here all day.
Tell you what, go to Rawk, they'll love you.
