George Bailey

'div' LOL perfect description of him

Spot on Ian. no way any side could keep two such young, good keepers both happy. i think we made the right decision as well. Forster is a good keeper and will get better imo. He will play at a high level both club and country I reckon, but Krul edges it for me. Hope he gets his england chance, grabs it and plays well. good luck to the lad. (he's a munter mind!...another Mr crouch who's 'bird' will no doubt be stunning..what is that attracts beautiful women to these guys I wonder....)

interviewing now on Sky

Plus the arm band and maybe some maturing on his part? I'm personally still not a huge fan and still waiting for the expected implosion but I have to admit he has been much.much improved............he was feckin coming from a long way down mind. Hope it continues.

A good player who yet again was tempted to move for the wrong reasons. Bit of a wasted career in some ways Easily a 20+ striker in a good side. Not a cat in hells chance of ending up back here

Good fun that 15... chuffed, in fact I'm over the moon.

Least he wasn't trying to rim him....

Hope we can prove to him staying would be beneficial to his career development and that he can achieve things with us. Seems a good player, pacey, direct and an eye for goal. I liked the way he went to the young lad after scoring, may be for the cameras but still nice to see some passion and awareness of the support.

I was screaming at the clueless fucker to go past his man! Perfect description of the build up to the goal

He is an abomination of a top league footballer. Amazing 'blagged' career at top flight. He must have a cracking stash of Polaroids in a cupboard somewhere.

Credit where credit is due. He out Mourinhoed Mourinho today. He clearly had a game plan, OK its his stock in trade one, but he used it today and it came off for him, and for us. Tight, no thrills, turgid defensive minded for first 60 mins and then increase tempo and desire in last 20-30 mins. Would I want to watch that every week? No probably not, nor should we be employing these tactics at home v Stoke/Fulham/ West Brom etc But, as much as I despise the odious cunt, lets be fair. This is a cracking result. Yep may have been different if Chelsea had played better first 45 mins in particular, but they didn't. I'm prepared to say well done to him today... albeit through gritted teeth (still smiling though!...we fucking won!!!)

Excellent stuff. Well said sir. Well said.

I'm now being called a mackem when you've got half of the forum on here saying the mackems deserved to win and me arguing against that for two days. Good grief George Bailey, hot f***ing dog! Sorry mate but you come across as a WUM for large parts. Apologies if you aren't one of them but your extreme defense of everything Ashley related etc seems at odds with...well the universe tbh. They did deserve to win too. That's the fucking nub of the matter. Worst team in the division and they outfought us and for periods Poyet out tacticed ( if there is such a word) our chump. Whilst we had the upper hand our players (largely a bunch of fucking cowards and bottlers on the day, and our idiot manager dissipated that period of better play by his usual negative shit.

It isn't about the position Ian and you know it. OK maybe I chose that badly. Its about the ambition and drive. if we were finishing mid table with a clear plan, a strategy and owners, board planning for the future we would accept it. We did with SBR for his first seasons. This lot have no plan, no strategy..not for moving OUR club forward anyway. They don't wanna be here, and are taking the club backwards. Both in terms of its image,its relationship with us and in playing terms too. Shootings to good for the c***s imo. I understand your position...whole heartedly disagree with you mind! But respect you as very good poster and clear NUFC fan. Brett...well I ain't convinced he isn't wearing red and white stripes.... Never understood this one, you could equally argue it's superfan behaviour to want the manager out because we aren't challenging for our 'rightful positions'. I don't make that argument, but you see what I mean. I know what you mean, I wasn't talking specifically about league position either really. But you get the point, from the outside it could look like "football fans being hard on a decent manager" or whatever. I want more ambition for the club too, but what that means in practice is a much more complicated debate. Agree to a point...... Iv'e simplified it mind...Not going anywhere near till this regime is gone... Hurts but I believe its the right thing to do.

Drivel as usual from the appeasers and apologists. Hughton is not shit. I would certainly say limited in the same way Pardew is limited. However Pardew IS an odious. toadying, slime ball who is so far up the anti-christs arse he licks Ashleys teeth for breakfast. As part of the current vile, infectious regime he deserves every ounce of criticism and bile heaped upon him. Who would be better?? A moot point in many ways. We need rid of them all and until people stop bending over, accepting the same crap and having the 'victim' mentality nowt will change. Season after season of mid table, flirting with relegation keek. But if you want to 'keep the faith' and prove what a soooper fan you are then OK, each to their own. Personally I see you all as much an actual part of the problem as well. Keep applauding Pardew though, chant his name etc, cos that's what real fans do. Just get used to his cock up your arse as he plows you deep..oh and make room for Mike as well, he will want to shaft you too, whilst pissing himself laughing at you.

5-1 over 2 matches. To this sack of shite. pitiful.

Clueless, spineless and I fear here for the long haul.

oh FFS!!!! crap jizz

uh oh...dodgy free kick...

oooohh

Hoooooooooooooooof

changes by the unwashed

gorgeous French fucker..............................
