......... and without the advantage of being given a flying start! Will be a good effort if he pulls it off - my guess, FWIW, is 8th. or 9th. though; still, would have no complaints about that.
Got something to say or just want fewer pesky ads? Join us... 😊

We are deliberately throwing the PL this season so Liverpool win it and we get the add ons for Alexis. Finishing second would be too obvious though so we are going under the radar by properly not challenging.

You don't KNOW that.Blowhards to the left, right and centre on this thread. Including the 'of course this was always going to be a transition season' brigade. Football, eh? The only certainty is that nobody knows anything, and the things you think you know will come back to bite you on the bum
Although you might have a feeling about it...

I think too much emphasis has been put on Fab on either extreme, be it the angry outers of last month or the giddy inners of now. For me the biggest factor has been the injuries we have had. It is no coincidence we play better when have more than one or two fit midfielders in the squad.
The time to criticize is when he mucks up with a fit squad. And the time to laud him is when he wins despite an injury crisis.
I guess Im "fence" still...

Can we draw a line in the sand and move on from this all. Please 
I want a new thread which is less polarising, so everyone can move on and discuss actual good/bad things about our manager.
The thread title is somehow marginally less embarrassing than it was at the time (if only because it now looks SOO ridiculous), but it still forces this constant reminder to what was pretty horrendous atmosphere on this forum, it forces the above constant back and forwards about who was right/wrong. And name calling.
Even the post above seems relatively balanced, but refers to "giddy inners". I stopped lurking and became very vocal on this forum about supporting Fab/the team and to give it a bit of time - we had new kids playing and half the team injured. But I'm not a "giddy inner" and I'm still not 100% convinced on everything I see. But calling for his head was just far too reactionary and the sort of embarrassing behaviour I'd expect from Chelsea fans.
I'm extremely bored now of the vitriol from both sides. Time for a fresh thread and fresh start.
Let's have a thread to actually discuss the manager and his tactics.
This embarrassing thread needs to die a happy death.

Awww I spent ages on that! It was meant to refer to the extreme triumphalists that have been almost as aggresive as the extreme outers were in their raging.Can we draw a line in the sand and move on from this all. Please

I think the majority of us, be we inners or outers are fairly level headed. We just get drowned out by the shouters so the whole board feels toxic. I always give NSC a swerve for a day or two after a loss or even a draw. Too many angry keyboard warriors.

Bang on.
Ok, so I'm trying to be the change I want to see. New thread here:
[Albion] - Fabian Hürzeler - A fab thread on our manager and his tactics
Looking for a sensible balanced discussion on our manager and his tactics. Ie. This reply - https://nortr3nixy.nimpr.uk/threads/fabian-huerzeler-a-fab-thread-on-our-manager-and-his-tactics.412380/post-11508743 We had 0% long balls from the keeper in September 23. It feels like most go long...

I look forward to looking forward with you on it.
The past is exactly that and this thread is old news for me now.

I believe that we’re now on the exact same points per game as we were in 2023 (when we’d just lost THAT game at Spurs), so certainly looking possible.

Where's your ambition?I’ll settle for a Cup final and 6th
The fraud is now relying on goals from defenders and penalties to paper over the cracks 
.
.
Someone who does that with a low post history, has the hallmarks of supporting another club.
This 6 (six) run winning streak has been at the expense of wins against 5 (five) top ten EPL teams.
It has involved a home double over the hated Chelsea and has put the Fulham hoodoo to bed.
Surely, the Hürzeler out campaign is extinct?
Is there anyone out there left to carry the banner?

There won’t, but only because we’re going to continue our current form through to the end of the season.

Come on guys, The OP has always been a troll. I nearly fell for it myself when he kept on promoting "HIS THREAD" (this one) when we didn't do well. Just look at his most recent posts. All on "HIS THREAD"
He joined NSC with a user called NORTH STAND SEAGULL with a location of HOVE. He couldn't find the AMEX on google maps
