I gave Harley

[Falkor]

f***ing hell

 

[stss30]

Usual shit like the people behind me.

This guy is cursed by all very unfairly in my view, like Barnes, and just picked on for no apparent reason.

So Barnes was a twat for equalising against Wrexham which part ensured the game today and Harley is awful despite probably one of the best goals so far the Amex.

I have a really good idea, perhaps the lot of you could just go and f***ing do one for once as you all talk bollox.

This. I genuinely heard some booing as Harley was brought on today, absolute joke.

 

[Man of Harveys]

Weird thing to read on here after a result like that. Really, really weird.

 

[jd312]

what. he got the team ticking when he came on

 

[JCL666]

OP is deluded.

Harley made one mistake and it wasn't because he dithered on the ball, it was because he was closed down by 3 players and no one else showed for the pass.

As for the bottling out of the tackle. I think it wasn't as clear a 50/50 as you think and he just stayed calm rather than launching himself into it.

Rest of the time he played well, linked players and was available for the ball. Plus his set pieces were good.

Give the guy a break.

 

[The Modfather]

so we knock a premier league club out of the cup and all a few people can do is come on here and moan about a subs cameo appearance.

Unbelieveable

 

[backson]

How the f*** can people read so much into a short substitute appearance? Some people just see what they want to see.

 

[Vankleek Hill Seagull]

Having watched the game in the pub, I thought we were better when Harley came on. Barnes switched sides and played on the right, Harley on the left and the team played a lot better in the second half.

 

[Kalimantan Gull]

Heartened by the people defending him. Not everyone is shortsighted. Good stuff

 

[hampshirebrightonboy]

Harley looked really good when he came on. If he made the errors Forster-Casey made he would have been crucified

 

[Albion Robster]

, but the way he bottled out of that challenge down by the corner flag sums him up to me, no fight at all.

This.

Harley does this every game! If he wants to be a good centre midfielder, he's gonna have to put his foot in now and again.

 

[Icy Gull]

He did well imo after losing the ball almost on his first touch and making me think he was going to be a liability. Credit where credit's due he did pretty well and he can take set pieces better than others in the team. He does have a very laconic style which can make him look like he doesn't care. I'm sure that's not the case though.

agree

 

[countryman]

I thought he played well.

 

[TheBlueAndWhiteStrips]

Oh look another Harley is shit thread, some of you really are Knuts

 

[The Hon Sec]

Once he got the speed of the game he was fine.

 

[chucky1973]

This thread is very harsh, once he settled he played some very nice stuff and worked very hard, I like the man and hope he is here to stay.

 

[tweenster]

I was sat in the West Stand when that goal went in against Peterborough - WOW! And today I thought he did well, ESPECIALLY winning that free kick in the corner at the Newcastle end in the last couple of minutes. Keep the ball; you can't concede a goal if you have the ball. Why are we so quick to condemn?

 

[Simster]

What a stupid, pointless, sad, bitter thread.

Yes you're entitled to voice your opinion blah blah, but we've just knocked one of the country's top teams out of the FA cup - can' t you enjoy the moment.

Harley came on as a sub, made one bad error when giving the ball away, but looked reasonably comfortable keeping the ball and finding a team-mate in the opposition half. He's certainly not impressed much yet but that does't mean he's a write off. Not only Gus but also Brendan Rodgers have seen enough in they guy to sign him. And I'm guessing, just guessing, they know more about football than you.

This.

 

[timbha]

shall we let Gus decide?

I thought Harley had a decent game today. It cant be easy coming on as substitute against a top 6 Premier team when you've hardly played any decent football in months.

He looked composed on the ball, was annoyed with himself when he lost it and seemed to improve as the game went on. Let's get behind our players.
