ALM round 13 v cold hearted killers

[BrisRecky]

Didn't want to mention it but wtf are the physios giving him at the sidelines regularly? Some kind of liquid. Bit weird and unnatural looking... his energy seemed unnatural. I'm probably way off...it might be cans of redbull!

Pickle juice …yum

Can we talk about how Aslan got to our bench in the first place and what he did to Kuol to have Kuol on the ground.

Obviously Storm saw something which had him absolutely livid, he was even calling for carpark afters to Aslan as he got sent down the tunnel, he obviously saw something to justify that, hence the wrestle to the ground

Here is the clip, don't mind the caption as it is a CFG fan but this is what got Storm sent off, looked like he got him in a headlock and slammed on the ground https://x.com/mcfctommyy/status/1748997318383476802?s=20

What’s wrong with an impromptu game of stacks on?

And also, so happy for Theo scoring, he had a great game. I can’t believe the bashing he’s copped on here in recent weeks with comparisons to that deadshit Hoole, incredibly disrespectful. He ain’t lazy by any means and you know it’s literally his job to take on players and be one of our more adventurous players with the ball, yeah? He’s gonna lose the ball sometimes he’s gonna try shit that might not come off, I’ve watched him closely since I saw the Hoole comparisons and “10,000 step overs” comments. Simply not the case.
Yeah theo had a couple off performances but he’s an electric winger, I feel like he’s a confidence player too, back him and he’ll deliver. Jacko is 110% backing him.

Agree. Can't see Theo shirtless at Jesmond shops at 8am on a weekday.
Theo works hard but his 1st touch and decision making isn't great. Swap him for Connor Pain and the quality on that side goes up by 100% for example.
I thought that was a great game of football and I imagine all sorts of things were said to the precious moneyed wankers to goad them leading to the brawl.
Bet McTapin was as far away from the handbags as possible. He epitomises the soft money grabbing mercenaries.Lazy and soft

He played well and had probably one of his best games for us last night.

Being adventurous is all well and good but a lot of what he did was just poor. Running until you lose the ball every single time in bad areas is not adventurous, it's poor decision making. He also has been losing the ball under minimal pressure because of poor technique and constantly needing the ball on his left foot.

His early pass to migz for the equaliser against Terengganu is the type of adventurous it wouldn't kill him to do more of ??‍♂️.

The first half a dozen games or so the 3 T's (Theo, Torres and tulip) did more stopovers than completed passes. Worst thing was they were doing them while standing still and going nowhere.

It's not a coincidence that they all started playing better (and by extension the team attack was more fluid) when they cut them out.

Think it was pickle juice - essentially a shot of salts to treat cramps.

He was just rinsing his mouth with it. Spat it out every time.

 

[Big Al]

Last year melee against Jets. All Mariners in for it.
Win the finals

This year melee. All Mariners in for it.
It’s staying home.

 

[Ancient Mariner]

It probably tasted the same as the Six Strings beer I had.

Well at least you wouldn’t have cramped AM….

Thats what you do with it. Otherwise if you swallow, it will draw water into your guts to dilute it and you get more dehydrated.

Spit don't swallow. Got it
Didn't know it reduced cramping though

Can be mad at the bench getting involved if an opposition player is going to approach it. I still dont see a strike from Roux, I do see Kuol being held up otherwise he's getting trampled. This happened in the same round Davila struck Caletti in the neck on the ground like a choke and there was no review and red.

The boys are building into something formidable, different to last season but formidable. The league is wide open right now too.

 

[FFC Mariner]

Need a striker badly.
Wanderers game and this one should have been done and dusted by half time. We create enough but can't finish.
Sooner or later we will pay for that

100% agree, what the f**k is Aslan doing there in the first place.

I'll confidently say that we are more then good enough to beat anyone at the moment, it's just unfortuante how poorly we started but that might actually have been a great thing for us

I hear you there mate, horrible beer ,never again…

 

[Ancient Mariner]

The only thing worse than the beer was the hot dog. The bun looked like bread but tasted and had the texture of cardboard.

Never again.

Hour delay meant I could have an early dinner somewhere else and avoid the shitty food at the stadium. I noticed that on the lawn behind the eastern stand they had some food trucks. One of them was the dumpling guy that does Gosford Markets on a Sunday morning. He is pretty good.
