Whatever happened to the guy with the megaphone?
at 14:35 28 May 2025

High chance this already has a well-known answer and I'm out of the loop.

Was just randomly reminded of him. Does he still go to games? Why did he stop with the megaphone?

Have they said who it'll be as I'm sure I remember reading it won't be Ed Sheeran again?

Why on earth are we sitting back after going ahead? Completely killed the momentum we had and gave United a way back in.

They were there for the taking... just why? So frustrating.

I know it's one of the biggest derbies in world football but I struggle to get up for it when they play each other every two seconds. Boring!

Anyone seen it? Recently watched it for the first time and was left feeling utterly depressed.

Probably the scariest film I have ever seen despite it being a docudrama rather than a horror. Absolutely brutal.

I believe it's on iPlayer at the moment.

Some post-match thoughts

I don't like digging out individuals but after today I've seen enough of Muric. Walton needs to come in for the next game against Wolves. He's made some brilliant saves but his mistakes are too often and too costly. How many points is he going to throw away between now and the end of the season? When does it end?

I love the manager as much as anybody but I think his credentials are really being tested at this level. Many of the substitutions look like they're planned in advance and don't seem to make much sense given the context of games, and it's clear that at times the shape hasn't worked.

Was it Einstein who said the definition of insanity was to do the same thing over and over again expecting different results?

I thought he initially lacked a back-up plan when we were in League One but eventually he learned from it, he adapted and was rewarded with success. I have faith he will do the same again. It looks like he'll need to if we are serious about staying up.

I guess the overriding feeling is that we're just not good enough for this league. It's not through a lack of effort, but we look out of our depth when the pressure is on.

Players making silly mistakes. Those brief lapses in concentration, like for their second goal. Those occasional, weak passes which disrupt the entire move and gift the ball to the opposition. At lower levels, you can get away with it but the Premier League is a different beast.

I hate to say it, but at times I think our mentality needs work. How many times have we thrown away a point (or three) in the closing minutes of games? Is that 'running towards adversity'?

I still have faith we can turn a corner, with the January window coming up and the adaptability we know the manager has. But every game that we throw away, every crucial mistake, every mad moment, gives me the impression that we'll go down because we aren't good enough to win the required amount of points at this level.
