David Icke - Son of God

I'm guessing he was told to go home as a form of compassionate leave, not told to piss off. Pardew's a cunt, but he's not that much of a cunt.

We're scum. Absolute scum. What a fucking club.

Bar Loco before hand?

Nor, that's Rod Liddle.

I'm sure there'll be a few heed the baal dole wallers heading down.

Pardew's big picture is probably coloured in with crayons. Shit cunt.

Not like Luke Edwards to pass of conjecture and old news as BRAND NEW INFORMATION!!!

Matter of time before Pardew works it into one of his excuses.

We'll attempt three at the back at some point under the useless tactical hipster cunt.

Every time I've seen him he's looked shite.

We were fortunate to get away with a draw. Every time Palace attacked we looked in real danger of conceding and I've absolutely no idea how we managed to score three goals. We're absolutely garbage. No zip or urgency, attacking players needing to drop back into their own half to get any meaningful touch of the ball, no organisation at the back and we're fucking around with a formation that nearly got us relegated two years ago and seems to suit us even less now. Pardew is a cancer. It doesn't matter how much money Ashley spends with him in charge. He's worse than Souness, which is something I never thought I'd say.

Likewise. We need MYM's pace and I think he'd excel when given a proper run at centre back.

64th minute: Paul Dummett and Steven Taylor are brought on. 66th minute: Huddersfield take the lead.

Sinclair couldn't get a kick at WBA last season. Rodwell is a much better player.

I never quite bought into the hype about Rodwell when he was at Everton. He looked perfectly decent but seemed to be one of these players that was put on a pedestal by the press simply because he was young and English. That said he's certainly an upgrade on Bridcutt and Colback, so it's a good deal if they can keep him fit.

In the first few years he was decent but with at least one brainfart in him per game. By the time he left he was just a plain fucking liability.

I was thinking the same thing, he actually did very well until the last kick of the game. I'd be asking more questions why he switched off if it we weren't desperately trying to flog him and make it clear he's not wanted. I think the fact he's played pretty much every game this pre-season and he is probably still jet-lagged had more to do with his mental lapses than anything else.

Ashley must have hit his head.

@GraemeBailey Jamaal Lascelles and Karl Darlow due for Newcastle medicals this afternoon. Players will be loaned back to Forest for season.

I'll drive Saylor and Elliot to Nottingham and not even ask for petrol money.

Pearce would love him.

What I want: Krul Janmaat - MYM - Willo - Santon Tiote - Anita Sissoko - de Jong - Cabella Riviere But we'll get what Elliottman posted.

Of course, however when Coloccini decides three weeks into the season he wants to fuck back off to Argentina again I'd prefer MYM to be next in line, not you know who.

Put a black mark on a very good 45 minutes by switching off at literally the very last second. It's a forgivable error in the wider scheme of things, but it's the sort of incident that will give Pardew the opportunity to reintroduce Stevie Fistpumps.
