He’s never going to let the rage go. Rage is what gets me through the day, boomer. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Clearly a technical player and had probably done it in the past He got it wrong, it was no better or worse than someone hitting a tame shot 3 yards either side of the keeper. No way did you watch that penalty and go fair play for giving it a go Yann. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ithuriel Posted 7 May 2023 Share Posted 7 May 2023 Waghorn was the right player at the right time for his loan season here, playing up front as a lone striker, brilliant, then we bought him and changed things and he was poor to say the least. Reminds me of another player who was the opposite, can't remember the Aussies name but he started in midfield and was so bad that eventually when his name was read out before the game over the tannoy you'd hear loud boo's. Then he was moved into defence and he magically became brilliant, the right position for him and he played his heart out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sampson Posted 7 May 2023 Share Posted 7 May 2023 Calling Kisnorbo “brilliant” is a bit of a stretch. He looked massively out of depth in midfield but became a decent Championship defender when moved back there 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So often he'd be in a good position but lacked the presence of mind to place the ball. He always looked to belt it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I always assumed it was little Britain types hating a foreigner, but genuinely normal people seemed to hate it as well. Very odd all round. The Deeney penalty was more disbelief for me. I remember not speaking for about 10 minutes after that in disbelief. The Kermogrant penalty was horrific as we overachieved getting into the play offs. I remember Pearson post match saying something about "replication" of the season (in terms of getting to the top 6) would have been difficult the following season. I loved the 2010 team (Morrison, Hobbs, Berner, Wellens, King, Howard, Fryatt, etc) and I look back so proud they deserved a top 6 finish, and achieved it. A contrast to 2013 where we completely fell away (or "bottled it" as people say now) and only just ended up scraping into the play offs. Watford were a much better team than us. But now I don't care about either. Couldn't care less if Watford bring merchandise out for "Deeney Day". Don't care about Kermogrant. We've won the Championship, Premier League, FA Cup and Community Shield since then. Although I am struggling to see why crying or disliking a player for missing a penalty means you're a racist. Guess I'm okay to criticise Maddison's miss on Monday because he's English 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aus Fox Posted 7 May 2023 Share Posted 7 May 2023 If you run up and take an honest penalty and the keeper saves it, or you miss the target - it’s shit happens and most people get it and get over it pretty quickly. If in a pressure situation you try and be a fancy Twat and chip it down the middle people will be a lot less forgiving. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
