Coxford_lou Posted 13 January, 2015 Share Posted 13 January, 2015 If getting trolled by Adrian Durham is a sign we've hit the big time, I'm a bit worried the article has only had 35 comments so far. For Adrian that will be a pretty low ROI compared to when he trolls the big clubs, and might put him off doing it again. Stories about Man U get hundreds and hundreds of comments. If we want to compete against the big boys, we're going to need to make effort to get angry about articles like this. Think big - we can do this!

Smirking_Saint Posted 13 January, 2015 Share Posted 13 January, 2015 The post is off target. If it hits the post and then goes in it's on target, because it went in - that's the same shot and it went in. If it hits the post and doesn't, it remains off target. Hence, Pelle hits post = shot off target, Tadic scoring rebound = on target. There is absolutely no grey area. Even if it hits the post, then hits a defender and goes in it's off target, as long as it wouldn't have gone in without the defender's involvement. Exactly this MLG you are wrong Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Saint Luke Posted 13 January, 2015 Share Posted 13 January, 2015 He says what ever is going to be controversial at the time. One day he says one thing and then do a U turn the next to get a reaction. He generally talks ******** - but then what do you expect from a Posh fan! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cellone Posted 13 January, 2015 Share Posted 13 January, 2015 Is he a Peterborough fan. Met a few and they're not all like him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Patrick Bateman Posted 13 January, 2015 Share Posted 13 January, 2015 Possibly the most ridiculous thing I have ever read: http://www.dailymail.co.uk/sport/article-2907871/Cesc-Fabregas-Alexis-Sanchez-lit-Premier-League-term-Southampton-s-dour-defensive-display-Manchester-United-applauded.html Why don't people just ignore it - who even reads the papers anyway?? Who cares what some fat dinlo says? I never have time to read them and I'm not bothered. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DuncanRG Posted 13 January, 2015 Share Posted 13 January, 2015 His Sunderland comparison illustrates the unaddressed issue: the quality of opposition. We were allowed to play our most thrilling, free-flowing football in the 8-0 because Sunderland offered no resistance whatsoever. On Sunday, United dominated the ball and forced us to defend. We were not in control in the way we often are and in performances that Durham praised, so we adapted and won. Perhaps, given the strength of our midfield and perceived weakness of theirs, we could have done better. But we still played a high line and tried to retain possession - it was an away performance to be sure but far from the backs-to-the-wall, deep-defending efforts you see from some clubs when they go to top grounds.

Mr Saints Posted 13 January, 2015 Share Posted 13 January, 2015 The thing to remember with Durham is he doesn't actually believe what he says or writes. For that reason, I ignore him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Same with a penalty.......not counted as a shot on target Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
westofshannonsaint Posted 14 January, 2015 Share Posted 14 January, 2015 Saints (or any team) being criticised for going to OT and defending well. To me that says more about the fall of United. They could be in big trouble if they don't get CL/European football next season. Also, that article is an example of why I don't read the daily mail. I thought (daily mail) warnings were obligatory these days (eg. its only the daily mail but...link...) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
