Positives from today

Post by fidelcastro » Sat Oct 02, 2021 6:14 pm

1. We didn't lose.
2. Clean sheet.
3. Collins looks promising.
4. We've moved up a place in the table.
5. Players to come back.
6. No shortage of endeavour.

Any others? :D

All those extra fans that attended wont come back, so the drive home will continue to be easy and relatively traffic free.

Dont have to watch MOTD

Norwich have finally got a point on the board, after really looking like they were a league 1 side playing in the premier league.

No positives can be taken after drawing 0-0 at home to a team that have been beaten in all 6 of their previous league games.

Yes and during that crazy 1st half that didn't look likely with Friend flashing yellows for virtually everything.

Collins looked assured.
Brownhill had a decent game too. End product isn't always his strong point but he was everywhere-and-at-em all over the pitch today.

The positives today were Collins looked really good and Brownhill played well. I'm not sure praising just 2/14 players is really a positive though

Probably the most so far this season, and will only get higher for the big 2, and even then they will be lots of away fans in our end.

Cant beat getting home in 10 minutes!

This. And it's was some people struggle with. Just because we weren't anywhere near good enough as a team and it's a massive missed opportunity, it doesn't mean every player underperformed.

Newcastle and Southampton both lost, and JWP got a straight red for Saints, so I think that'll mean he misses our visit to St Mary's.

Another one here who thought Brownhill did well

Look, on a perfectly normal day we win that 1-0 with a pen, and we don't really worry as its the result that counts

But we do need to improve in a lot of areas at the moment

Brownhill was a plus, pinged the ball about quickly, let down by those around him who either kept hold of the ball too long or were just too slow.
