Ah I see 💡 no apology necessary, that's on me. I just think some of us seemingly need a little more time to sleep on it, or we could be looking at a 'be careful what you wish for' moment.

I did read it 👍🏻 But it shows how fickle we are and short a memory football fans on the whole have. I don't have to scratch my noggings too hard to think back and remember what constituted as boring in black and white.

Regretfully, I worry we - as a fan base - are already drifting toward this kind of negative energy #NUFC
If Sir Bobby and his team copped it from fans in 2004, why should anyone after be treated differently - including a manager who’s achieved more in less time ⁉️

I hope that we never end up like Arsenal fans
You have to laugh…I hope that we never end up like Arsenal fans.

Totally concur and echo your point. The irony of your the repost is it's a member of the "True Faith" squad! Since the first two transfer windows post takeover, argubly every signing hasn't hit the ground from the off, but some fans are conveniently forgetting that at the moment.

Villa have been the better team, no debate...
But the refereeing performance is driving me barmy 😠 how many times have they got away with persistent pushing, shirt pulling, and ticky-tacky fouling without a booking!
A marked improvement is needed, with quicker interchanges and movement

While today’s result and performance were poor, a bit of perspective is needed before calling futures into question 📢 #NUFC
Results this weekend — and all season — show how unpredictable this league is 🎰
This season may be comparably disappointing, but patience and a deep breath are still needed.

My biggest disappointment with today’s showing was the lack of creativity in tight spaces. #NUFC
It felt like chances only came from wide areas and crosses — with little technical manipulation of defenders to create shooting opportunities.
This is where a number 🔟 would’ve come in handy 🤔

Big opportunity to regain our spot among the top 5️⃣ with three points in the Black Country today. #NUFC
Predicted starting XI:
▪️ Trippier returns at RB
▫️ Questioned❓️ whether Bruno 🇧🇷 should be rested — unlikely
▪️ Miley ⭐️ moved to a more familiar CM role
▫️ Barnes 🏴 starts in place of Murphy 🔄

Wolves 🐺 may be bottom and our form improving, but I still feel a level of anxiety 😬 about tomorrow.
Their league position doesn't reflect recent form, and a fearless, free-playing opponent is always dangerous ⚠️
2️⃣ draws from our last 3️⃣ at Molineux — I may be content with another by full time #NUFC

▪️The tie isn’t officially over, however achieving a semi-final berth still deserves applause.
▫️Last night’s performance was good — more clinical and on another day, a different outcome.
▪️I still believe Big Nick & Wissa will come good, but top form will likely come next season.

▪️ No thunderous start, both teams in a chess match ♟️
▫️ Wissa should’ve tested the keeper 🧤, but his pace in behind troubles City’s defence 💭
▪️ Hall is an absolute baller — showing poise and composure
▫️ Attacking downhill second half… who breaks first❓️

Had he continued his 22/23 form without the recurring injuries 🩼, he’d have had Europe’s 🌍 top clubs knocking on his door 🚪

A tough hand dealt in last night’s 4th Round draw.
Depending on form 📈 and fitness 🩺, there’s no reason we can’t do to them what they just did at White Hart Lane.
Our form and success in cup football 🏆 over the last few seasons should inspire belief — not leave us overawed.

▪️Is it a certainty AG10⚡️is our only attacker in the England 🏴 WC squad ⁉️
Barnes' recent form warrants consideration as an attacking option.
▫️BDB, Schär, & Tino injured, while Lascelles could move —Surely it's crackers not to dip into the market 🛒
Right-side of defence has to be a focus 🤔

When the decision had to be made, Eddie stuck with Barnes ahead of Gordon — and it paid off 🎰
He may not get the attention or stats others obsess over 🧮, but he does what he does best…

▫️ Sheer force of will got us through
▪️ Barnes — forget stats, he just scores 🥅
