Bar Newcastle United, who is your favourite team? Bordeaux. But as for neutral teams.... humm there aren't any reall. Just quite a few teams I enjoy watching. Which team do you hate the most? Right now: Hull, Sunderland Who is your favourite player? Rooney. Love to watch him play, great mix of modern flair and old school Britishness. Special mentions for Gourcuff (the guy was unreal last season) and Torres. Which player do you have the most hatred for? Too many for one to stand. Maybe Cronaldo. Basically I hate most players that are clearly brilliant yet choose to be soft cheating twats coughRobbencough.

606 quote from the main BBC article: http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport2/hi/football/teams/n/newcastle_united/8329055.stm "Does Mike Ashley deserve yet another chance? Probably not however, I will again reserve judgement and see what happens come January"

Also been very open last two seasons. Still think the refs are too moronic and stop it from being a lot better.

It is the biggest game for sure, but they call it the "Classico" in France... which is such a stupid cringeworthy name

Yeap one point clear.

Aye, indeed. Massive stuff. Hold you bastards now!

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!! What a game! HOLD!

Oh well at least that's something, maybe a chance to get the card cancelled.

"They were banging each other left right and centre" And now there's a red card.... ok.

FAIL Fate double bluff. Well played, U Luque!

wow

"Thunderbolt" by Carroll. Get in. Come on, push for eeeeeeeeettttttttttt

Can't believe this chance Jonas seems to have missed ... or maybe it's just completely typical. Sitting 4th as it stands.

a photo from a parallel universe? was flicking through the pages and had the exact same thought when I saw it again. Good consistency. Ooohh, that's a great one!

These are supposed to be the best referee from every country in Europe Indeed... The additional guidelines UEFA give them must really mess with some of their heads. I remember our UEFA Cup games and how ridiculous some of the refs were.

Typical idiotic European competition refereeing by the sounds of it!

Thank god for Pato's goal... that decision to disallow the other Milan winner was atrocious. What a joke.

It's okay everyone, turns we are in fact top.

Nah, we'll stay 2nd. You must have been seeing an already up to date table.

This league is quickly not becoming much fun anymore.

Ugh.

Great guy. Would love to have the same Le Sib playing for us this season, that's for sure! Good luck to you Antoine

Well, obviously it wasn't about making a successfully working environment anymore, but I'm suggesting not guaranteeing that it would be an unsuccessful one. I simply don't see it as too much to ask for him to put up more of a fight (or putting up with a little more shit) and ensuring the season wouldn't end in disaster especially given the circumstances of his return. Of course he was "technically", "legally" right but that doesn't make the way he just packed it in again (and knowing how much damage it would cause the club and team) any less annoying. Knowing his temperament he probably also played a part in manoeuvring himself into a position where he felt he had no alternative. As much as you find it moronic to hold any of this against him, I find it weird to not consider his actions at least a little disappointing. That's just the basis of the opinion divide.

The very immediate future of the club from a sporting perspective. So many people keep saying that the months that followed and our relegation proved how right Keegan was. Well I suggest that also means he quit and knowingly left the club in the hands of these incapable people. Well that sums up nicely the points we are disagreeing over. There's not much more to say I'm afraid.
