“Negligence and unprofessionalism” unwise pre-match words

194

I know none of you take this stuff seriously, but I’d been feeling a bit exposed with yesterday’s “Determined by Dundee” blog.  Newco won 0-5 there earlier in the season and have a vastly superior squad to Dundee, but winning when it really matters is difficult.  You can sense when a side are a tad short in this department, and Newco definitely made this a worthwhile punt.

Tony Docherty would have had his easiest team talk as a manager before last night’s game; Phillipe Clement did all his spade work.  “Negligence and unprofessionalism” are words that land a punch.  True or not, they are enormously disrespectful and gave Dundee a binding cause.  It was a schoolboy error from the latest iteration of guru-soon-to-be-worst-mistake-ever.

Now Phil has to ride the toxic fruits of his labour.  Angry and entitled football fans blaming him or his team for the happiness you and I enjoy, and which they are denied.  If only he had been nice to Dundee things might have turned out different.  Let’s hope he finds somewhere nice when he moves on in the autumn.

I’m a jinx, whenever I turn the TV onto a Newco game, they score, so I stayed on Man City – Real Madrid until a wave of texts lit up the phone.  “0-0 FT”!  City-Real are two great teams who served up a classic encounter.  So much to talk about but one moment stood out.

With City leading the penalty decider 1-0, Bernardo Silva tried a Panenka but got it horribly wrong and shot weakly into the keepers’ hands.  Silva, though, had been made to wait at the spot for 40 seconds, but in the context felt like an age, until a City fan returned the ball to the pitch.  The player had terrible preparation for his kick.

Think of the most stupid act you can imagine, and one clown will soon redefine your expectations.

    The Navajo and all Indian tribes have a huge fear of these ‘demons’ as they call them.

  2. Not so long ago in an Anglo world

     

    Liverpool were heading for Dublin

     

    And an EPL was guaranteed to play in the CL Final at Wembley

     

    And then there was one

    “Do People not understand goal difference ffs.

     

     

    We’re currently 5 goals worse off. If we beat them even 2-0 then it’s down to 1 goal and all to play for.”

     

     

    I blame the skools.

  5. That new yellow card rule could come in handy in Scotland

  10. Am tip top Melvin

     

     

    Appreciate you asking, I took out a lot of the shit posters who made the site a misery

     

     

    On reflection, I took out a few too many (some who didnt deserve to go) but many who did

     

     

    It was a good time to step back and preserve my brain, as CQN’rs are a hard lot to wrassle into an odd shaped chanty

  11. If you know what a chanty and therefore a chanty wrassler is

     

     

    More power to you lol

    16 1 2015 HUNS V HEARTS at ibrox game abandoned after 24 mins because of snow on pitch.. The huns could not afford to put on under soil heating so frozen pitch did not thaw oot.

     

     

    Can anyone remember what they were fined.????????????????????????????????///////

    KrisBoyd on the bench haha

     

    Huns making moves for front door,

     

    They stormed the suites at the end

     

    Certainly worth asking if an appeal is progressed

     

     

    They let out fans at same time,the eastern brothers buses got pelted by their brithers in the west.

     

     

    T.O.S.B makes good points,at the original Dens park game 0-5 to hun

     

    It was delayed by 45 minutes as they were late- how did that impact Sky scheduling??

     

    Game paused due to flare display and smoke etc at game.Young girl sexually assaulted during this.

     

    All hushed and quiet

     

    No word on coins thrown at maeda after he scored

     

    No word on bottle throwing at MoR pen

     

    No word on coins thrown at dugout

     

     

    This atop last season bottle thrown at staff in dugout

     

    Shards of glass in goalmouth after bottle thrown smashed of the bar

     

     

    Bada your idea of crowd funding gets more appealing by minute.

  19. Good morning folks. Unfortunately, I’ve woken to an email containing extremely sad news. One of our group Gerry Chambers (GER57 on CQN) had to go through an emergency operation on Monday and although the operation itself was a success Gerry was unable to recover from the serious side effects and passed away yesterday afternoon. I’ve been asked by Neil, his brother in law, to let you all know.

     

     

    May perpetual light shine upon you Gerry💚🕯️🙏🏻
