  1. Exactly. Those of you who think the "he'll get it right" camp is trying to quash your PoV should reconsider. When people on here say "give him time", that is NOT equivalent in the slightest to saying that you don't have a right to be unhappy about the result. What they are saying is that the kind of over the top railing that goes on needs to be reined in. People wonder why others throw the label of "fickle" onto a club that's won sweet fuck-all for so long? Because of that kind of overreaction to a bad result.

    PR is a bad word lately though. Blame it on the cynicism of our times or a general mistrust of public figures, but those two letters conjure up images of spin doctors, damage control, deceitful manipulation and ignoble ends in the minds of many. edit: not that I think M&M are up to it -- I believe that while there is positive PR being generated by their actions it's not the primary goal of their actions to generate it. So why would Mort say his main role was PR? To give you something to wank over, if this thread is any indication. Really I guess I missed where he said that. The point still stands that it doesn't make their actions any less genuine except to the overly cynical and caustic.

    Do We Need Faye?

    It was a question, he is starting to answer it. While I doubt you revived this thread for the purposes of showing someone up, many other threads get recalled for that purpose and it's obnoxious. Opinions can change and a lot can happen in a month. I admit I was skeptical but hopeful. Question: will this thread be necromancered up when he has a shite game or two?
  5. Whereas if the article hadn't been published it'd be "How come Owen is silent on the matter? Little fucker is probably scheming on how best to fuck over Newcastle and leave us for Sunderland on a free" Can't win at all in this can he?
  6. i thoght barton was peter beardsley . mackems.gif mackems.gif mackems.gif had to do a doubletake myself. as well
  7. But does Owen realise that? Does it keep him up at night, tossing and turning on his bed made of money?
  8. That'd be the end of me wearing it out in public.
  9. Bit worried about that 3 in stamina, maybe best used as a late game sub?
  10. Quality of opposition please. List of teams played against and in what competitions.

    Are we to...

    Pride and expectations management do not coexist.

    Jose Enrique.

    I don't think anyone on this forum is qualified to answer that question about any player, really.
  13. What the fuck were you expecting retard? Top 4 after dismantling 90% of the team? Shut up and stop posting.
  14. That English XI would get relegated, sad to say.
  15. Someone please, please tell me where I missed this, or is Anal just being a cunt?
  16. And the first options (Taylor, Faye) don't fill you with dread.
