Nervous excitement about tonight.

Re: Nervous excitement about tonight.

Good post, exactly how I see it. Improved performance.

It's obvious we want an upturn in results, but like already said we need to see performances improve consistently over the odd period where we pick up 2 wins and a draw in a month but nothing really changes on the pitch.

Thankfully we are seeing changes on the pitch as well. Let's see how it plays out.

No team has can prosper long term the way we used to play under Warnock, Mick and to a slightly lesser degree, Harris. That was the concerning thing even when we were doing well with results. It took teams about 3 years to work us out at this level plus the added fact that we couldn't afford that little bit of quality that could get us out of the shit. I watched the final 30 minutes against Preston and it was much better. Players getting forward, following the pass, trying to create a bit of space and an option. There's a long way to go and we may find ourselves in the shit at the end of this season, although it wont be because of what Morison does, it'll be because of the previous three managers and their tactics.

I'm just happy to be looking forward to going to watch a City match again, not expecting wonders but hopeful that we're taking baby steps. Big coat, bobble hat, cold dry evening under the floodlights, lovely stuff

We are in blue. That's enough for me to turn up.

Its going to be tough. Hull don't concede many - in either half.

Excellent reply and you aren't wrong hard to disagree with any of that.

Hope and wanting is now turning into belief.
With the players feeling more confident and picking up points my excitement levels are rising and so are the nerves.
Not quite a cup final but a very important 6 pointer and for our momentum.

Oh! A case of premature excitement!

It’s almost inevitable that turning up at CCS with optimism leads to disappointment.

Long season ahead .

Re: Nervous excitement about tonight.

On the plusside shame we're superb, with a very Ian curtis-esque performance from Charlie Steen - full of energy and a special mention goes to the bassist josh finnerty who's as mad as a box of frogs.

Best post punk band live. Definitely worth a watch.

Shame are a fantastic live act. I’ve seen them five times and will be seeing them again next week at Bristol’s Rough Trade in a show with a crowd capacity of just 150. I’ve met the band a few times too - great bunch of lads, good fun and really genuine.

Don’t get your comparison with Ian Curtis at all, though. Charlie Steen’s stage act is far more Iggy Pop than Ian Curtis.

The dress sense, the weird jerking movements with no apparent sense of the beat. Just how see it. But I get your iggy pop likeness too.

Last time I saw them was in a venue of similar size to the Rough Trade, so it'll be fun

Re: Nervous excitement about tonight.

See, this is what happens to football managers.

They get a couple of good results by playing different players, then they morph into their predecessors and go back to the old guard, thinking they will now be better players, when they are still shite.

Wrong team selection all over the pitch

Saw them at the same venue almost exactly three years ago and it was a blast. Got to spend lots of time with the guys before and after the show and they were great company.

I thought Shame’s debut album was the best by any new band in decades. Wasn’t too keen on the second album initially, but it’s grown on me after seeing them perform some of the tracks live. They really are a brilliant live act.
