Obfuscate as much as you want but we finished short of where we should and regardless of who was in charge it wasn’t good enough.
ah, you mean the 3 clean sheets and 3 wins with a lame strike force, ok wrong types of wins and clean sheets and goals but the 8 wins out of 19 was better than AK's 5 wins out of his first 20
sorry for quite enjoying the M o N revolution, the season was alive until a few games from the end of the season and plenty of positives going forward
i'd say we were light up front but 'heavy' seems more how it looked, even so, M o N found ways to win a fair few games and we looked difficult to beat in all of them, usually extremely difficult to beat
I am very happy to the generally, very solid look to the squad
M o N is total quality, we have more than our fair share of deluded fans, though i appreciate many have suffered for many years, most may never of seen 3 consecutive wins with 3 clean sheets, we are guaranteed to be around 3 and a half months undefeated in the Championship in August
i think in M o N we have a sublime communicator, diplomat, peacemaker and most important builder, absolutely light years ahead of most predecessors
the 2 brickwalls and attritional football we saw alot of the time might of been preparing for a fight for survival in the PL, i think deep down M o N is an optimist, maybe over optimistic if it is possible, but he has wisdom to look a long way into the future and i think that is what he was doing, when the play offs were unattainable he tried differant things, had a look at virtually everyone and effectively deployed plans A B and C
Such a decent bloke, seems so easy and natural to want to support NFFC with M o N and R K on the touchline. We will not see the likes of M o N again, such an exciting opportunity, for those who criticise 'the wrong type of goal' or 'the wrong type of win' , any promotion is good but i think if it happens under M o N and R K it will be more special and defining and precious, if nothing else it adds onto Cloughie and Taylors legacy, instead of us only being able to look into the distant fading past, the past actually becomes part of the present and the future, it's beautiful
