To think that poor Neesy was nominated for Worst Football Poster ahead of this relentless mong lord. The truth.....sometimes hurts. Nothing there today on the back of Brighton. f***ing rubbish. *Stoke And you're talking bollocks as always. So, lost 5 and drew 2 of last 7 home games! 2 out of 21 points. That Is f***ing rubbish. TBF we never even looked like getting anything v Brighton or Swansea today. Boring negative s***. Did you arrive at half time today?

Diame wasn't awful either, he drove us forward a lot and won his fair share of important challenges. Gave away about 6 silly fouls, gave away the ball quite a bit etc. He did drive us forward, but to little effect. Including the brilliant pass he made which contributed to our equaliser? I only watched the second half admittedly but he appears to be the only player who is spraying the ball about with real purpose for us. He's inconsistent and should definitely be registering more goals/assists, but at the moment he should be starting. We're absolutely incapable of even starting an attack without him. Spot on Not seen it back since I got away from SJP but I thought it came from his tackle to win the ball back as well.

As much as Charnley is a yes man he has shown that he can get deals done. He's not the blocker, he doesn't have the authority. Ashley and Barnes are the blockers.

Its an HR issue, why wouldn't it be left to the MD of the company? There's literally nothing Ashley needs to do apart from wait till Charley has done the investigation, as the owner of he club that what he pays Charnley to do Well in most businesses of this size there would be other senior leaders that could be involved in an investigation but at NUFC there is a skeleton staff.

Christmas Day - it's been mental.

Embarrassing. Ashley Out.

Cole had a flat in Gosforth opposite the The Three Mile at one point but spent most of his time in a place in Jesmond.

It will happen, but possibly not in time for the January window Was the City takeover not late, with Robinho signing on deadline day? There's hope Wasn't that a different takeover? No that was the year before.

Just had a text from an excellent source.

They are by far is biggest weaknesses - he makes game changing mistakes that cost goals. These aren't due to his technique more often than not. Most notable for me was at Burton away last year in the small terrace and very close to the goal so I could see him up close and he was shaking like a leaf with nerves every time he took a goal kick. If he could cut them out I think he could become a decent Premier League 'keeper. Might have just been cold Any other examples? I'm interested in your perspective but still can't recall that many occasions where his concentration/focus has glaringly obviously let him down to be considered a huge problem. Ipswich away last season? Everton at home this season?

Concentration, focus and mentality hard ones to teach.

Just got a text from a reliable source saying the same thing. I hope the forum can take the load when everyone tries to log on at 9pm.

FA Cup gates are split 45% each and the away team has to agree to the pricing so Norwich don't miss out financially. Sorry, it occurred to me as I hit post that I was forgetting about something re gate revenue being split. Regardless of any of that, it would have made sense for Chelsea to have sold tickets to Norwich fans for the same price their fans paid. Any opportunity to give fans a break on costs should be taken up by clubs. Absolutely. It was good to see Spurs laid on the same deal as we did - £10 for adults, £5 for kids at Wembley. Similar attendance to us as well.

Not really for away fans given they are capped in the Premier League.

Seems like a bit of a farce the way the club is handling this. Should be suspended on full pay pending outcome of the investigation not taking training tomorrow with those that have accused him.

Could have easily had a straight red for that tackle.

Ouch.

It sounded like only a few people but right next to the microphone - who was it they were calling a wanker? Couldn't quite make it out.

Why would they stage it though? To appease fans. Ashley doesn't give a f*** about what the fans think. My gut feeling now is that it will still be done but only if we stay up so not until end of the season. Didn't say it was from Ashley's side...... How on earth does a meeting at a curry house get photographed by a photographer unless it was leaked by someone.... Because there were three very recognisable famous people in a bog standard curry house.... quick text, social media post etc.

Still find it odd he’d brief Rob Draper but not Craig Hope, who works for the same paper, is paid to cover NE football and sits in on every presser. The Mail/Mail on Sunday are the only ones running that line so far as well. That's all fine. My point was about your comment about lack of quotes. We see articles about NUFC in the press all the time without quotes that often turn out to be true so it's not exactly a surprise to see articles like this without quotes, bollocks or not.
