Wouldn't of hurt him to rule himself out a few months ago. There has been a Shearer shaped cloud over Allardyces head for months now.

No there hasn't that's just press speculating after the bad run of results. He's always ruled himself out. But I guess for the press and some people he needs to do it every single day.

He's back to his best form,

 

he really, really isnt

Back to his best Newcastle form he is.

I give up tbh trying to talk about logical tactical alterations.

5 is very generous for Smith... he honestly brought nothing positive tonight.

We don't batter teams... ever.

Smith is so bad it's make me cry.

If he was only bad, no big deal... it's the fact he seems to be an automatic starter and can do no wrong in the manager's view.

Zoggy must be thinking wtf?! As gets taken fro granted while these muppets are praised for their competitiveness.

That was truly terrible

Its fuckin shameful if an established premiership side cant score one fuckin goal against a championship side.

 

Old Trafford at the weekend....

 

So if it is shameful then what is it for Everton? Or even Liverpool against a debt ridden Luton and can only manage a draw?

 

Everton and Liverpool have looked convincing all season

Exactly, for us this is just continuation. Another chance of putting in a good display for the fans gone far far down the drain.

Another inept tactical display tonight. Butt and Smith in the centre and we get outfought the whole game anyway.

Rozenhal bottled it and still managed to get hurt.

Aye again! Idiot. That's what you get with a player from the French league. It's basic defending, if you go in half hearted, you're the one going to get hurt. Done it all night.

Interesting, Zoggy is our best player in the first then at the break some decision is made to switch wings and muck around, now he's invisible.

Typical display from our lot. Going to end 1-0 to Stoke or 0-0 now.

PS: ... and that twat keeps sayin Rozental.

Fucking muppets we have out there...

- Of course it was a foul BY Roze, he chickened out of the contact the twat

- More unnecessary patheticness by Smith, gives it away cheaply then blatantly takes the guy out. He is a brainless dickhead.

Another sloppy piece of garbage sent from the foot of our captain. Terrible pass.

Captain fantastic.

Smith has one move tbh. The UNCONTROLLED LUNGE^TM (forward, forward + kick). Sometimes it works.

So much space in CM. If only we had a decent player in that position.

Maybe that's why there's so much space... Stoke know there's not much threat in there right now

Our passing is so sloppy... always a yard off. It makes a big difference, as the guy receiving the ball is never put into a good situation and needs that extra ajustment.

Frustrating to watch.

Zog is looking up for it... need to get him running into some space with the ball.

Hit them hard. Hit them early.

These are the kind of things youd expect from a Prem side... but we are incapable of such things. Just hope we can flick that ball thing about a bit until it might end up in their goal.

I would not be surprised in the least to see him on the pitch for Arsenal.  If he was just training with them then why deck him out in a full training kit with a number and everything?  It won't surprise me if a loan deal is reached.

Good call.

 

I think he'll join on loan, as he wants to play for England and Cappello is constantly attending matches in the PL, so it's senseless to be in LA in the close season when there's England games soon.

 

Think Beckham being decked out in Arsenal kit is the player's way of paying for them letting him use their facilities and train with the first team squad. The additional revenue, profile raising, etc will more than cover the 'expense/burden' of having him train there.

Exactly. The fact he has Arse kit on is no indication to anything. When Adu trained with ManU he was all kited out.

Even at Newcastle his touch was class.

The home leg against Marseille sticks out for me. Beginning of the twilight of his career, yet in that game we blasted balls up to at all angles and in one touch with leg, foot or chest it was down on the carpet or brilliantly into the path of one of ours.

Could you rehost your avatar please.

Kind of undecided about him now. Quality finishing, but not much pace about him.

Aye, because different, even it's proved over and over to be a total load of garbage, is always better.

Can't believe this argument still pops up after his last "run" in the team.

People want Shola in the team....

Brain and memory of a gold fish ffs.
