Rubbersoul

I got plenty of Fatawu 70 yards merch. Thank you Santa!

My only message is to try and be kind to yourself over the next week. Treat yourself to something nice and just take care of yourself. Maybe don’t watch Leicester... the ultimate treat

I reckon Silko Thomas starts this. Marti seems to love him

I’ve seen a few QPR fans say we were one of the worst sides they’ve seen in a long time.

I would just like us to be enjoyable to watch. I’m not even asking for promotion. Just that we look like there’s a plan.

Whatever he is it isn’t a footballer

He’s a striker and his main attribute is winning fouls. I think that says it all.

Seriously impressive bit of play from Neale to assist the second goal.

Amani Richards surely going out on loan in January? Just turned 21 and had a pretty good first half of the season.

It’s a good job we aren’t a top end championship side then

He’ll hopefully get a look in Pre season. I don’t care what anyone says the kid is extremely talented. It’s not just Leicester fans praising him. Plenty of opposition fans have singled him out as being really good. He might not be a Prem level midfielder but it’s not looking like we’ll be a Prem level team any time soon.

I think people look at our academy players through the lens of us still being a top 5 premier league side and they’d struggle to make the jump up. We are a bottom half Championship side with no money to spend. Braybrooke going from League 2 to the Championship next season really isn’t that unrealistic. So not sure why him being at Newport is used to bash him.

This kid looks like he’s got so much talent. He’s 17 right?

I’m not coming for you or anything but I think if Alves doesn’t go on to make it here it won’t be down to lack of talent. The poor kid was literally assaulted on a football pitch. That wasn’t a normal tackle or accident.

No not at all. That post wasn’t aimed at you at all!

It’s very much a thing academy players do on their socials. They post almost a highlight reel after games.

I can’t say for definite as it would be impossible to go and look but there’s definitely a percentage of people on here who get excited when there’s a chance to criticise these kids (I realise Nelson isn’t a kid but feels like it to me..) The reaction to Aluko getting sent off was utterly embarrassing. Grown men going crazy and giddy because they can go I TOLD YOU SO!!! THE 18 YEAR OLD IS SHIT!!! Nelson was by all accounts poor yesterday or just at fault for a goal i don’t know. I couldn’t watch. Of course fans who like seeing Academy players involved are biased and less likely to criticise, but if I’m totally honest after the last few years of “senior pros” putting disgraceful performances in every week I don’t mind Nelson, Aluko, Page and even Silko Thomas looking shaky. If it means we’re actually building towards something. I think people forget we’ll still be a Championship side next season & potentially not much money to spend. We will need these kids. It’s not like we’ll be expecting them to jump up to the Prem. You even get accounts taking snide shots at Alves & Braybrooke ffs.

Haha sorry wasn’t trying to be a dick

Hirst is a Sheffield Wednesday product and Silko came through at Chelsea

We have been rubbish in every single game. Do you know how mental that is?

I saw enough from Aluko in 10 minutes to know he’s better than Thomas. And the kid got sent off

Anyone got any idea how we’re meant to be playing?

Worst manager in our history 👍🏻

Was that the worst kick off in history? Passed it backwards and instantly under pressure

Hahahahahahahaha ****ing hell ****ING CLEAR IT
